09:02:48  <tormentum> the one problem with OSS games... people complain endlessly
09:02:58  <tormentum> then you fix it for them

09:52:30  <Darkvater> morning
09:54:14  <Darkvater> tormentum: you're absolutely right...it's a bitch coding for OSS
09:54:38  <Darkvater> peter1138: short form?
09:54:45  <hylje> what
09:54:52  <peter1138> foo = bar;
09:54:53  <peter1138> versus
09:54:55  <peter1138> foo = &bar;
09:54:57  <peter1138> basically
09:55:41  <Darkvater> I think we do it without & until now
09:55:54  <hylje> in oss stuff.. if someone doesnt approve of the way things go
09:56:05  <hylje> he can feel free to fork the project
09:58:36  <peter1138> Darkvater: no, it's inconsistent
09:58:41  <peter1138> some places without, some with

10:20:09  <peter1138> yes
10:20:20  <peter1138> that's the violence it induces in the player due to its annoying UI
10:23:52  <Nigel> ahhh right

10:31:50  <Zevensoft> ottd is rated medium level violence
10:31:58  <Zevensoft> for when stuff explodes
10:32:04  <Zevensoft> also with the demolition
10:39:03  <plod> fwoar

10:39:48  <hylje> Zevensoft: thank god we dont have realistic physics and god mode
10:39:59  <hylje> Zevensoft: it would go straight to brutal violence

12:00:15  <HMage> OpenTTD Counter-Strike edition. That'll raise popularity in a blink of an eye. :)

12:00:43  <tormentum> distributed by steam
12:00:45  <tormentum> (the devil)
12:00:50  <hylje> :>
12:01:06  <tormentum> what're peoples thoughts about a steam like client for OTTD?
12:01:09  <tormentum> distributes updates
12:01:21  <tormentum> has an "anti-cheat" style system for multiplayer users
12:01:27  <tormentum> kinda like a universal login for OTTD
12:01:31  <tormentum> etc etc
12:01:35  <hylje> login system could be of use
12:01:41  <hylje> but cheating is usually desynced
12:01:46  <HMage> and to play OTTD singleplayer you need to be connected to internet :)
12:01:53  <hylje> and register your copy
12:03:26  <tormentum> not really... it could be a requirement to play on "authenticated" or participating servers
12:03:31  <HMage> and you'll need to buy another CD-Key once you're banned from the system
12:03:41  <hylje> monies for the devs
12:03:42  <hylje> yay
12:03:48  <tormentum> but if you wanna play on private servers you can use an unauthenticated mode...
12:03:53  <tormentum> something like that anyways
12:04:00  <HMage> I think that'll be too much hassle.

12:04:12  <Tron_> it's totally pointless
12:04:20  <Tron_> you cannot cheat by design
12:04:30  <Tron_> there is no hidden game state you could exploit
12:04:49  <tormentum> mm true
12:04:53  <tormentum> meh, just an idea :)
12:05:00  <tormentum> an auto update feature would rock tho
12:05:10  <tormentum> or at least being notified when an update is available
12:05:26  <Tron_> for a release every N months? you must be kidding
12:05:34  <HMage> I'd recommend using bsdiff and bspatch (look up on sourceforge), they produce very small patchsets for huge changed files
12:05:57  <Tron_> if you can't be bothered to click a download link in about half a year, go away
12:06:16  <tormentum> Tron_: there are those who play only intermitently (my ex gf) who would benefit from something like that
12:06:42  <Tron_> nonsense
12:08:03  <tormentum> just a thought :)
12:08:53  <Darkvater> I think really if you play intermittently that you then check the website before you start playing again after months of not playing

12:09:33  <Zevensoft> I cheat in ottd, I use wallhack
12:09:33  <tormentum> what about those who have been given the game by someone else and dont know that it's an active project?
12:09:43  <Zevensoft> you can use it through the spanner menu
12:09:52  <Zevensoft> lets you see through stuff
12:09:56  <tormentum> zomg haxx!
12:10:09  <Darkvater> how would they not know it's an active project?
12:10:12  <Ailure> I just press x
12:10:36  <Darkvater> when they get the game their friend says: "sweet, I have this really cool game, version 0.4.8 but don't bother checking on the internet cause it's dead"?
12:11:11  <tormentum> eg: i gave my ex a copy a year ago, and she was still using that same version a few months ago... she's not computer literate and doesnt know what OSS is
12:11:41  <Darkvater> well, she is your ex, so that about wraps it up :)
12:13:17  <HMage> http://www.daemonology.net/bsdiff/
12:14:25  <Darkvater> bdiffs are useless if the project runs on this many architectures
12:14:35  <Darkvater> it's not like you have to download hundreds of megs anyways
12:15:00  <Ailure> I gotta love the amount of formulas there too
12:16:11  <HMage> firefox isn't more than 6 megs of installer, but they use bsdiff to provide patches for auto-updater
12:16:16  <HMage> via auto-updater*
12:16:38  <Ailure> well the diffrence is
12:16:49  <Ailure> that the mozilla foundation get bandwidth problems
12:16:54  <Ailure> as soon they release a patch :P
12:16:55  <tormentum> Darkvater: you ass :P
12:17:10  <tormentum> ex maybe, but loves her opentted :P
12:18:05  <tormentum> i might have a play anyways and see what i come up with
12:18:36  <Ailure> Maybe I fork openTTD and make a war edition
12:18:48  <Ailure> it won't be any fun to play though, becuse your network get's blown up all the time
12:19:04  <tormentum> lol
12:19:12  <tormentum> should make a multiplayer version...

12:20:23  <hylje> supply your troops!
12:20:37  <Ailure> OpenTTD already have violent elements
12:20:38  <Ailure> I mean
12:20:43  <Ailure> thoose poor ufo's
12:20:53  <Zevensoft> add a zero-g mode
12:20:59  <Zevensoft> where bridges arent needed :D
12:21:04  <tormentum> train zerg rush...
12:21:10  <HMage> "Terrorists tried to attack your coal train station... *throws 2d6* - they fail!"
12:21:11  <hylje> :D
12:21:22  <tormentum> HAHAHAHAHA
12:21:26  <tormentum> how very sad
12:21:27  <Zevensoft> I cast magic missle
12:21:41  <hylje> jesus saves
12:21:44  <hylje> and takes half damage
12:21:49  <tormentum> OpenTTD: World of Warcraft edition... *ducks*
12:22:02  <HMage> I'd play as a AsiaStar
12:22:04  <tormentum> "Your train casts frost shock"
12:22:33  * HMage goes to the edge of the world and doesn't mind he doesn't have a rail path that way
12:22:56  <hylje> Enemy train is permanently slowed. You win, you fucking imba shaman train.
12:23:11  <HMage> just imagine how very depressing is the view of a cottege near the edge of the world - it's all black out of the window
12:23:16  <hylje> :>
12:23:30  <Zevensoft> "Cant do that while stopped"
12:23:51  <Ailure> Probably would be more depressing
12:23:59  <Ailure> for the vehicles who insists on being at position 0,0
12:25:23  <tormentum> "Dude, can you sheep that train?"
12:25:39  <HMage> "Welcome to the Atlantic Tours! To your right you see a nice view of a Mancrowhattan City Park, to your left is an ordinary edge of the world, please fasten your seat belts."
12:26:04  <Ailure> would actually be cool
12:26:11  <Ailure> if the gameworld was round
12:26:25  <tormentum> and on the back of 4 giant elephants?
12:26:34  <tormentum> who in turn stand on the back of a huge turtle?
12:26:38  <tormentum> the Great A'Tuin?
12:26:46  <Ailure> gotta love though
12:26:56  <Ailure> each continent in openTTD
12:26:57  <HMage> "Terrorists have destroyed 1 of the four giant elephants!"
12:26:58  <tormentum> Mr Prattchett would be proud
12:27:00  <Ailure> is a squarish island
12:27:12  <tormentum> actually, he'd prolly try to sue, but meh :P
12:27:45  <tormentum> back in 15 or so
12:28:04  * tormentum walks to the corner of the room, thinks a bit, and quietly implodes... *puff*
12:28:37  <peter1138> lspace :D
12:28:38  * HMage sets tormentum's position to 666,666
12:30:09  * hylje haxes ottd a bit and sets tormentum's position to 2,4,-99999

12:44:51  <peter1138> heh
12:45:02  <peter1138> i used to have dreams of that
12:45:07  <peter1138> after playing doom with noclipping on

12:45:22  <peter1138> +e
12:45:26  <HMage> quake 1 was that. if you noclip out of the wall and turn off noclip, you'd fall down, and under you you'd eventually see another copy of the world, but it would be uninhabited and you wouldn't clip with it.
12:45:43  <peter1138> heh, yes
12:46:25  <hylje> other games have an indestructible obstacle below the land

13:47:35  <SpComb> tormentum: just use bacula, it only takes a couple months to configure it
13:48:48  <tormentum> lol
13:48:53  <tormentum> nah, rsync to a portable hard drive
13:48:58  <tormentum> easy and quick
13:50:04  *** Spoco [Spoco@dsl-083-102-065-169.lohjanpuhelin.fi] has joined #openttd
13:50:16  <SpComb> thing about bacula is that you have differential backups and compression, we usually get well over 50%, up ot 80% compression
13:50:42  <tormentum> depends on what you're backing up tho
13:50:53  <tormentum> i have a lot of MP3's and photos
13:50:54  <SpComb> well, general purpose servers
13:51:10  <SpComb> hmm... backing up mp3s...
13:51:11  <tormentum> mm, for them sure, but for my laptop, simple is easiest :)
13:51:16  <SpComb> I'd specialcase those
13:51:22  <SpComb> but yeah, bacula is a real PITA
13:51:29  <SpComb> currently it's half borked here, but too lazy to fix it
13:51:36  <peter1138> uh oh
13:51:57  <SpComb> yeah...
13:52:01  <peter1138> yahoo images
13:52:07  <peter1138> "franchise"
13:52:11  <SpComb> bacula is also incredibly complex, which is a bad thing
13:52:27  <SpComb> because you can never be well and truly sure that it's working like it's supposed to
13:52:48  <SpComb> I wouldn't mind it if someone made something that had the features of bacula but somehow split it up such that it was a lot simpler
13:52:52  <tormentum> rsync /home/ /media/usbdisk/Backup/ --archive --progress --stats --delete
13:52:54  <tormentum> easy :)
13:53:12  <SpComb> my bacula configs are probably over 200 lines, and that's with little to no comments
13:53:19  <SpComb> and the mysql db is several hundred megs
13:53:25  <tormentum> lol
13:53:55  <tormentum> ahh well, this works for me
13:54:09  <tormentum> the portable usb hard drive is 500gb and the laptop is only 80gb
13:54:10  <tormentum> so i'm fine
13:54:25  <SpComb> 447 lines for the dir, and then some more generic stuff for the the rest
13:54:25  <tormentum> i could do simple dd backup if i really wanted too...
13:54:34  <tormentum> unmount my /home/ partition and dd it, but meh
13:55:41  <SpComb> bacula basically sucks because of it's complexity

19:45:11  <Darkvater> no, I'm talking about the C++ implementation, the simple wrapper
19:45:32  <Darkvater> KUDr only did the C implementation in case someone was 100% against the C++ impl
19:45:46  <peter1138> well the C++ implementation is pretty much nothing

21:48:11  <HMage> it only writes "YAPF was merged and requires template features that VC++ 6.0 does not support properly.", which templates?
21:48:13  <Nigel> it's something to do with the templates used
21:48:37  <Nigel> no clue sorry
21:49:54  <peter1138> it uses templates

21:50:00  <peter1138> apparently
21:50:15  <Rubidium> HMage: looks like YAPF is designed to be a series of templates
21:50:39  <HMage> vc6 supports STL quite properly, and even if it fails, there's always an option to plug STLport instead of native implementation.

21:55:28  <HMage> what if I, say, revive msvc6 and make it compile the code properly (with stlport), and add a requirement for stlport for msvc6 instead of just plain abandoning it?
21:55:30  <HMage> vc6SP5 with processor pack improves the compiler quite a lot, it compiles 0.4.8 code perfectly without any workarounds. What workarounds are you talking about?
21:55:32  <HMage> VS2005 express requires me to install .NET 2.0 - which makes me unable to use ASIO-enabled audio software.
21:55:44  <HMage> and there are many people still believe that vs6 has strengths that 2005 one hasn't. Though 2005 is a lot closer to vs6 than 2003 one.
21:56:04  <Rubidium> HMage: I think you should take a closer look at stdafx.h or so
21:57:20  <peter1138> .Net 2 prevents ASIO? huh?

21:58:53  <peter1138> Rubidium: to be fair, that contains workarounds for a lot of stuff other than vc6, heh
21:59:08  <Rubidium> true
22:02:56  <HMage> as far as I see, these are standard for all MSVC compilers. In 2005 they've actually renamed even more functions with an underscore before it. You have to shut up it's warnings about unsafe memory and string manipulations.
22:03:23  <Eddi|zuHause2> from what i remember was that vs6 could not handle nested templates
22:03:36  <Eddi|zuHause2> that's why it was dropped
22:03:59  <HMage> I'll check.
22:04:44  <HMage> quite funny that the header file that is included by everyone is called MSVC way - "stdafx.h" :)
22:05:08  <Eddi|zuHause2> and 0.4.8 code compiles, because it already contains the vs6 workarounds
22:06:05  <HMage> about .NET 2 vs ASIO - .NET 2 enables kernel features that cause very short (~1ms) 100% cpu spikes, on 64sample latency it become impossible to have audio skip-free with .NET
22:06:14  <HMage> becomes*
22:06:33  *** Osai^2 is now known as Osai
22:07:29  <Eddi|zuHause2> err... when audio skips you might try increasing the buffer
22:07:37  <HMage> and increasing the latency too
22:07:47  <HMage> this is a no solution for realtime audio processing
22:07:53  <HMage> a no-no*
22:09:45  <HMage> as for MSVC6 borkness - these workarounds are actually in libraries, and these workarounds have to exist on msvc2005 too. The only warnings that are disabled on msvc6 are sign/unsign loss of data warnings and truncations from type1 to type2. I would actually prefer not to disable them.
22:09:49  <Eddi|zuHause2> well, i can't help you there, i have never had the need for that kind of low audio latency

22:20:51  <KUDr> it was possible to write it without those features but the code was even more cryptic
22:21:04  <HMage> ok, I'll try with stlport.
22:21:15  <KUDr> but there were continously problems with VC6 even before
22:21:29  <KUDr> why stl port?
22:21:39  <HMage> it replaces stl implementation of msvc completely
22:21:42  <KUDr> is has nothing to do with stl
22:21:57  <KUDr> it is problem of compiler
22:22:05  <KUDr> not libraries
22:22:14  <HMage> stl is not a library :) they're just headers

22:22:32  <HMage> anyway even if it's not stl I'll try to see that
22:22:33  <peter1138> stl = standard template library, no?
22:22:47  <HMage> yes, but they do not require any .lib in process

22:24:02  *** BJH2 [~chatzilla@e176110208.adsl.alicedsl.de] has quit [Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.61 [Mozilla rv:1.7.12/20050915]]
22:24:15  <KUDr> look into support objects in the YAPF (arrayT, fixedsizearrayT, blobT and so on)
22:24:21  <KUDr> it is also library
22:24:27  <KUDr> and also in headers
22:25:54  <HMage> I was more picky to wording due to the fact that here in russian language we denote 'library' only those, that compile into .lib or produce object code. Therefore STL wasn't an object library (in russian the meanings for dictionary translation of term 'library' are a little bit different).
22:26:02  <HMage> sorry about that.
22:26:20  <KUDr> ah ok
22:26:30  <KUDr> but we are clear now i guess
22:26:34  <HMage> yup
22:26:58  <KUDr> so the stl wasn't problem
22:27:08  <KUDr> YAPF doesn't use them
22:27:20  <KUDr> they use allocations heavily
22:27:35  <KUDr> so the memory would be fragmented
22:27:36  <HMage> anyway, nobody besides me is interested in msvc6 support, it seems.
22:27:45  <KUDr> and program would slow down

22:28:08  <KUDr> you can rip out YAPF
22:28:15  <KUDr> and then compile
22:28:38  <KUDr> probably only some minor fixes will be needed and VC6 would work then
22:28:45  <HMage> I'll try to make YAPF work on vc6.
22:29:02  <HMage> and wait till 0.5 is released. I'm sure I'm not the only one that uses msvc6.
22:29:48  <KUDr> sure
22:29:57  <KUDr> but VC2005 is for free
22:30:10  <KUDr> so why to bother with such old crap
22:30:52  <KUDr> i would like to understand what can motivate people to resist the evolution this way
22:31:01  <HMage> there's a proverb in russian "The only thing that is free is cheese in a mousetrap.". VC2005 has many downs, and inherited those of VC6. The ones that VC6 has I know how to deal. Many people still use VC6 since it's the last one that doesn't use .NET
22:31:37  <KUDr> hmm
22:31:46  <KUDr> then try linux
22:31:48  <peter1138> what's the best way to get a decent russian translation, heh
22:32:56  <HMage> I'll wait till .NET is ironed down in Vista (the first OS to include .NET with it) and move there once it doesn't have it's problems I encounter.
22:33:36  <peter1138> window server 2003 r2 comes with .net
22:34:10  <KUDr> HMage: where did you read that VC2005 uses .NET?
22:34:31  <KUDr> it can support .NET but CLI.exe is not started
22:34:46  <HMage> it just installed .net 2.0 on my pc when I tried to install it, it didn't even ask me whether I want it or not.
22:35:01  <KUDr> and?
22:35:20  <KUDr> what is wrong with it installed only but not used?
22:35:23  <peter1138> .Net 2 isn't exactly evil spyware or anyething
22:35:25  <HMage> lost another day reinstalling all my stuff along with windows xp. Audio started stuttering like hell.
22:35:52  <KUDr> why others have no such problems?
22:35:57  <HMage> you use asio?
22:36:05  <KUDr> no
22:36:20  <KUDr> wtf is asio?
22:36:33  <HMage> Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of having two PC's. one for audio needs and another for web/internet/otherstuff
22:36:46  <peter1138> "audio stream input output" ?
22:36:52  <HMage> asio - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASIO
22:37:03  <HMage> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_stream_input_output
22:37:57  <KUDr> hmm
22:38:01  <KUDr> looks nice
22:38:57  <KUDr> so can't you have two system partitions on HDD?
22:39:23  <KUDr> or play with VC2005 in virtual machine?
22:39:44  <HMage> unfortunately, NT kernel that supports .net applications does some background checks from time to time I don't know what are these, but that disrupts continuous flow of audio data to the audio interface. I am right now playing with vc2005express in a virtual machine, but that is quite inconvinient.
22:40:16  <peter1138> .net 2 occasionally does some recompiling in the background
22:40:21  <peter1138> but not often
22:40:21  <KUDr> this is problem of tread priorities or not?
22:40:29  <KUDr> this can be adjusted
22:40:34  <peter1138> i only ever encountered it when installing SQL Server 2005
22:41:02  <KUDr> .NET GC can have disturbing effect but it can be easily sent to background
22:41:06  <HMage> I've tried disabling .net 2 optimization service, but that was no use. ASIO runs almost realtime.
22:41:10  <KUDr> same as whole VM
22:41:42  <HMage> there are no .NET applications running while using asio, but still. maybe it's my system?
22:42:08  <KUDr> hmm sound interesting
22:42:38  <KUDr> if you can reproduce the problem in VMware i would like to look at it with kernel debugger
22:42:50  <HMage> in VMware you can't have ASIO :)
22:43:01  <KUDr> ofcourse
22:43:14  <KUDr> but the problem should be wider
22:43:18  <KUDr> not only asio
22:43:32  <KUDr> if it really exists outside your asio sw
22:43:47  <KUDr> otherwise your sw vendor should fix it
22:44:25  <KUDr> does it occure also on multicore PCs?
