| Yes another nice new version released bristling with new stuff. Get it here! Addition * Added nice sound effect when you drop a marker cube. * Added option to allow user to select the headbob speed and frequency (in the menu select options/game). You can also turn headbob off completey. * Now added a slick screen fade in/out routine when changing between screens. * Added a link in the programs/qoob files group to the help file..... * When presented with the qoob world list you can now see the difficulty level and author. * Added a nice splash screen. * Added 2 new maps, Baby Steps & Little Feet. Modification * Player now moves forward and backwards a little slower and stands a little taller. Feels better. * Now players health display bar is the same size regardless of resolution (i.e. now all the way across the screen). * Outside world starfield now looks more 3D, nice one. * Improved the 'aaaaaarrrrrrgh' falling out of the world graphic. * Map textures improved. Bug Fix * FPS now locked to 70 FPS. Also now shown more discreetly, top left of screen. * Game load (F8) caused a memory address error. Oops, now fixed. * In the editor, if you selected the textures dialog before loading or creating a map we hit an memory address error! * When escaping out of a game and returning to the options menu you had to click on a menu cube twice to select that option. |

| Wow, top game. The concept gets my top vote! |

| CANNOT RUN IT. I get "unable to set graphics mode". What mode are you trying to set? Why can't we select a mode? |

| ------------------------------------------- " CANNOT RUN IT. I get "unable to set graphics mode". " -------------------------------------------- Same here :-(( Bolo |

| Eh? I don't get it! This has been tested on 6 different pcs, all OK. Could you please post your spec. |
| ||
| I have: WinME, DX 9b 768MB RAM, ATi Radeon 9700 Pro (128mb ram), Samsung 900 ift monitor with desktop res of 1280x1024x32. What res and bit depth are you trying to set? Window or full screen mode? |

| WinME Dx9? GeForce4200 Bolo |

| Prior to anything (even a graphics3d call) I do "cnt=CountGfxModes3D()" to see how many 3d modes the card can handle. If the cnt is 0 then I display the message you get and exit. This game works on loads of other pcs ok. Any thoughts. |
| ||
I don't know what's up, but this complete program works:
For i=1 To CountGfxModes3D()
Print "Mode "+i+": ("+GfxModeWidth(i)+"x"+GfxModeHeight(i)+"x"+GfxModeDepth(i)+")"
Next
WaitKey()
I get a list of 28 modes. |
| ||
| The weird thing is I do it exactly the same way as the example start.bb file you get with b3d. What happens if you do before any graphics3d() calls just... cnt = CountGfxModes3D() print cnt |
| ||
The following complete program runs fine from the Blitz IDE and as an executable:cnt = CountGfxModes3D() print cnt waitkey() Output is 28 |

| We believe that a small number of people are getting an 'unable to set graphics mode' error message when trying to run qoob. We are still trying to fix this strange bug but in the meantime if you want to try our superb game, download a default qoob.ini file and stick it in the \qoob v0.52b\sys directory overwriting if one is already there. Download qoob.ini here! |

| Hi qoob. Just got home. Please check your email. The ini file is empty. |
