any CUBE players here?

what servers do you use?

Well I played it many times but not on any servers, thats what Unreal Tourney is for.

i'm doubtfull this box would pull a UT, thought i could be wrong

personally i never became a big fan of Unreal games past the first one.

i'm still trying hard to find a copy of Tribes 2 Linux on bittorents and hopefull that my win32 key will work on it too.. that is probably my most favorite FPS of all times.

I just use whatever the master server lists.. (which was down, last time I tried).

I wont be able to play soon because there is no official 64 bit binary and that's the way my system is heading.

How did you install Cube? Is there any package (I couldn't find any) or did you compile it yourself?

I believe you can just get the tar.gz from here:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=91993

Extract it somewhere, it should just make a single folder and then run it from there, or from bin folder or similar (I haven't actually installed on linux as I run 64 bit, I have to play in windows).

thats correct, there is no installation. just dl cube_2005_08_29_unix.tar.gz and extract it whereever (desktop if you desire) and inside youll have cube_unix.sh just run that.

there is also a source package but i havent been able to figure out its compiling method as it has a whole set of different packages inside of it, and its not discussed on cube's website (http://www.cubeengine.com/)

Yeah, I tried the Unix file and it works nicely. Real fast-paced action! It's really nice to see an open source game/engine that perhaps could be used for more games...
But I agree, it would be nice to know what server to use... :)

also check out Nexiuz (http://www.nexuiz.com/) which is even more of an eye candy

...but it takes up quite a bit of sys... unlike it's parent, Quake 2

[borisattva]

could be... though this system is about 3 years old and it wasnt a gamers pc back then even yet it runs nexuiz fine.
