This thread is for asking questions about the Xonotic project, because we know you have lots of questions to ask :-)

Before you post anything here, make sure to read through the FAQ page completely.

Also make sure to read through the existing questions on this thread to make sure your question hasn't been answered already.

We thank you for supporting Xonotic!

How long before we can expect a download?

And also, the FAQ says: "low quality textures will be dropped and replaced with high quality".

On the current version of Nexuiz, I have to run with r_showsurfaces 3, r_sky 0 and all graphics settings at lowest quality, just to get an average of 60fps.

How will this "higher quality textures" affect that?

It wont. If you dont load textures (well more or less), their size is irrelevant

I just realized that Xonotic will need different servers.
Did you guys talked to anyone about this? Maybe the guys with the DCC server.

I think this is a very important issue.

Huh... I remember setting the "texture quality" in nexuiz... so it must be on... how do i turn them off then?

r_showsurfaces 3 indirectly lower the texture quality to just slightly more then nothing.

I have two questions:

1. I see that the main developers of Nexuiz are now developing Xonotic. Does this mean that Nexuiz will get less frequent updates, or no updates at all?

2. The FAQ says "low quality textures will be dropped and replaced with high quality". I don't really like to use r_showsurfaces, and I'm not able to get a better graphics card for my computer. Does this mean I'll lose a lot of FPS?

I hope devs will not split up and focus on the xonotic.
Also at least we need a clone of current nexuiz SVN with name changed. So people will know xonotic faster.

I just cloned the current xonotic git main branch.

Sadly, it has no windows executable
Only a server-executable...

03-22-2010, 06:29 PM

Yup, as soon as it has a Windows executable I'm fetching it too.

Let's wait..

Xonotic Assasins!
