Crossfire Forum

In light of the fact that game companies have taken the code from the game under the plain old GPL3 and set up servers, but not released the source code to the server side code, I believe the AGPL3 to be vital in growing the free-software MMORPG community.

GPL version 2. Crossfire never was put ...

I can see why people want to play alone, but you can run your own server, I want to befriend people when I play a multiplayer game.
Please make that as Easy as possible.
I may be dumb, but in what way displaying your ranking would help making friends in a multiplayer game ? Apart for bragging ...

In particular I was wondering if you think requiring a server side application to distribute source code is a good idea, or if it causes more problems then it solves.
I personally think it is generally a good thing for a project like Crossfire. 7b4 forces every work that would be based on the ...

You have two choices:

- Either you wait for the Debian package to be updated. This bug has been reported to the maintainer (See Debian bug report #379348), and should now be fixed;
- Or you download the source package from the Sourceforge project page. In that case, you'll need to install the ...

It means that the Python plugin, which is the part that makes the slot machines work, is not installed.

To check if the plugin is correctly loaded, check at the beginning of your server log - you should see something like this:

Hmmm... Today the game made me so angry that I quited my char!!! I mean what is the point anyway? I HATE IT!

Nobody ever said that Crossfire aimed to be an easy game, with no risks involved. The base idea is that a high-level character has no reason to be less careful than a newbie one when ...

Maybe not sdl_mixer, as it would introduce a SDL dependancy we don't have (Windows can't even use SDL in the first place, or i'm missing info :))

You're missing info. SDL (and more specifically SDL mixer) is also available under Windows. That's actually a good way to get rid of alsa/oss/winaudio ...

yea, something like that, which is why i suggested the speed reduction, and have it have a high spell penalty. thats also why i said to make them smithable only.
I don't think it is enough - whatever penality you put on dragons wearing armours, they still have the possibility to remove it at any ...

ok, how about armour for dragons?

Gameplay-wise, dragons are not allowed to wear armour because it would make them too powerful when compared to other classes. Allowing armours such as those you suggest would make playing dragons too easy (basically, a simply apply/unapply of the armour would ...

A patch has been done, (hopefully without errors :) ).

Note that there was no obvious reason why those were deactivated under non-Win32 systems. The patch should distinguish the key bindings based on (1) the player name and (2) the server.

Feel free to grab it on the CVS and report the bugs as ...
