downloaded it the other day and have to say its starting to look really good, if you can add a good story/reason for exploring the dungeons in single player mode then I think it should be a great game.

Thanks man! I wish we would get more exposure in the press :(

hey, what do u use for screencast?
my avconv(ffmpeg) script doesnt want to work good with this game....fps in game shows nicely at 60 cap(v-synced) but actual footage is unacceptable..about 10-15 fps with huge skips...alltho the script is set to run on 30 fps.
also tested recordmydesktop and kazam.. all recorders have same issue with this game.
other games seems to record fine...

anyway...nice changes... love it

I know ToM was on Bluesnews so maybe you could get a follow up placed ?

I used Fraps on Windows. There is nothing on Ubuntu 12.04 to record good quality screencast :(

Well, it was on Bluesnews because they picked it up. Press doesn't usually post about games they don't like and simply spamming them won't do any good. So we'll see if they will pick up on the update.

I tell you man if you posted this game on kickstarter with a low pledge to start I really think this game would do well. Hell I would be willing to invest more money into the game. Also I know I have talked to you about this before but if you had a gift system it would also help.

glc is pretty good once you get it installed (which can be a bit annoying as it is not packaged by most distros for some reason), and if you do not want to mess around with scripts and terminal commands you could use my Soul Capture program with it. ;)

I found myself fighting all that stuff and wasting time. Since I have Windows, I'll just do screencasts there from now on.

don't have windows for fraps...
weird thing is that i can record xonotic just fine with my script... same engine?
glc is pain in the ass for me...it works..but its doesnt want to record audio and cannot use the output file directly in openshot...have to encode first..takes lot of time.
motorsep 11 Aug 2012
Suppose to be the same engine, unless Xonotic team changed something :)

What script do you have? My major issue is voice over sound - it comes out all wobbly when I am recording simultaneously from mic while playing the game and recording it into AVI with built-in tools. And if I use ffmpeg it just comes out all bad.
Xpander 12 Aug 2012
thats my script

voice and sound does record fine with simultaneous output
motorsep 12 Aug 2012
heh, I use very similar script, but I have Pulse Audio
Xpander 12 Aug 2012
i have pulseaudio also...
and i had mistake in script with threads (which is fixed now)

Have you tried recording screen cast on Ubuntu 12.04 for SS:BR or ToM ? It just doesn't work for me. It works fine for anything else, but not for DarkPlaces engine.
Xpander 12 Aug 2012
im not using ubuntu.. Mint 13 Mate Desktop without compiz i have.
Xonotic records fine.. ToM not... SS:BR haven't tested yet.
