Re: Forum Changes
call me "hard to please" or whatever you will, but imo, the more recent changes are all pretty bad. the likes and the karma ("poke-balls"...) make it too much like social media... "like- and "karma-whoring" galore. I also find the new default avatars pretty awful too. do you know of any social media site that doesn't do this?
I avoid twitter, fb, tumblr and friends for a reason, y'know.. :L
as izzy said, this is just a test. if you have a definitive opinion on it, speak up please!

Re: Wut
the windows download is openspades only.... :(
I'm going to give you a chance to revise your appeal, as lying severely diminishes any chance of you getting unbanned. I saw you holding a block and snapping directly to two separate players' heads (which were each around 80-100 blocks away!) every single time you copied/grabbed a block's color, and tracking them for around a quarter second and letting go as you realized what's going on for each time it happened. that's certainly not regular mouse movement, even taking lag into account. if that's not aimbot, I don't know what is.

voxscript
this is a lot of fun to mess around with, so I thought I'd release it :)
as you all know, VOXLAP is a 3D voxel engine made by Ken Silverman. it's a very nice and easy-to-use engine, once you get it working, but most people either can't compile it or simply don't have the time/patience for doing so, which brings me to voxscript.
voxscript is a small program I made which combines VOXLAP and AngelScript. AngelScript has proven to be a very versatile scripting language, and besides, its arrays don't start at 1, so why wouldn't I pick it? :) I'm looking at you, Lua
how it works:
edit main.as to your liking
launch voxscript.exe
notice a problem or two
close voxscript & repeat
Spoiler for current VOXLAP support:
green: supported, orange: mostly supported, red: not supported note: whenever you see a *, that's just because I'm not sure how the pointer would transfer over to angelscript. otherwise it should be @ type lpoint3d (int-based 3D vector, mainly used for block positions) type point3d (float-based vector) type point4d type dpoint3d (double-based vector)

here's the download link: voxscript and a bare bones script, ken silverman-style: basic.as
Edit: and for the hell of it, a version that supports 1024x1024x256 maps. it can't load AoS maps, though, and I don't know of any program that can edit this size of map.. voxscript1024 January 03, 2017, 12:37:47 PM HST

a client thing
well, this is a bit late, but better late than never... right? :)
as some of you might know, the last 5-ish months, I've been secretly* working on a 0.75-compatible voxlap-based AoS client. as it turns out, it kind of helps to have proper foresight for that kind of project, and planning out what I needed to do was almost the direct opposite of what I did when I started it. oops. yeah, the codebase kinda quickly became a huge tangley mess of C++-ified spaghetti C code, which as you might imagine, is not very good for productivity in general, let alone long-term maintenance.
so, I've basically stopped working on it because of that. well, that, and the fact that it's voxlap, so it's not exactly cross-compatible (unless you use sonarpulse's hack of a project, but let's be real here...), or flexible enough for my personal needs... but fear not, for I have started development on Yet Another OpenGL Voxel Engine™, and this time I've done (hopefully..) proper planning :)
* unless you know Rhodo, then it's probably not so secret to you. lol
Spoiler for what proper planning means:
if you put aside the programming side of things...
it means it WON'T look or feel like OpenSpades. it'll be more like the AoS 1.0 alpha. you know, this awesome thing? ↓↓↓
looks awesome, right? yeah, I know. :) once again, not like OpenSpades. OpenGL doesn't have to mean lens flares, dust clouds, and water ripples. ugh
an outdated video, but it still mostly represents what this client can do:
the point of this whole thread: client devs in AoS community are not dead. or, uh... there's a new one? idk. stay tuned, I guess.
Edit: here's a download link for the client. default server is the best server, tug of war. be warned, babel will probably auto kick you (and any server with bdpatch installed). I'm not entirely sure why, but I know for a fact that it's a client-side issue, and the spaghetti codebase makes that kinda hard to fix. sorry.
