question, i built ddnet from github with cmake (windows), but the "open project" button is greyed out

02:36

so i am unsure how to open it in visual studio

02:36

have you pressed "generate"?

yes, that is all that text in the bottom half

02:41

oh, one second, maybe i need to press it again

02:41

ok nevermind, i didnt press generate, only configure my bad

(there's also the option of opening in visual studio directly, should you get stuck in your current path: https://forum.ddnet.tw/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5765)

awesome, thank you

sorry for the newbie spam, but how would i check if the client executes a file (.cfg)? right now I have this box on my screen, and i want it to change from red to green when i toggle a command

03:48

03:49

this is the code ive added to my client so far

03:49

Image attachment

ctrl+t >> ConExec

03:51

Or something

03:51

Should start with Con if I remember. Not sure if it's for client tho

03:55

you can just search for "bind" btw

ok

[ddnet/ddnet] Issue opened: #3516 Graphic bug in menu theme selection menu

!screenshot_2021-01-16_11-15-37 Tested on 88fb027cb26e91ee0726d0b54802d8455275f03f (self compiled on debian 10) Also would be nice if one could select a theme using arrow keys (keys bindings always come in handy when the the GUI is buggy)

yo git wizards I usually do git reset --hard HEAD^ to delete the latest commit any idea on how to do it when HEAD is detached?

10:26

my git status shows something like HEAD detached at pull/34/merge and i want it to stay detached i just want to revert to a prior commit

10:27

`fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD^': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.

oh ok nvm the git log is only 1 commit long so the error makes sense

ChillerDragon: just use git checkout HEAD^ in that case

13:52

if you're detached, there's no branch whose branch pointer you oculd move

13:52

so moving the checked out state to a different commit is all you need to do

yea the issue was the log only had 1 commit but i solved it

13:52

oh btw since ur here how do i downgrade my graphics driver

13:52

i tried pacman -S nvidia=455.45.01-1

13:53

but it only finds the current version no older versions :/

let's start with: why do you want to downgrade your graphics card driver?

well i had the ram issue so i wiped my arch and since i reinstalled it my graphics driver doesnt work

13:54

so i want to test if a older driver still works

you could try installing this packet: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-390xx-dkms/

AUR (en) - nvidia-390xx-dkms

NVIDIA driver sources for linux, 390xx legacy branch

yea ok

13:56

but isnt that for legacy cards

13:57

Embedded image

as far as I understand it, it's a still-maintained older version of the driver

as i understand it if i have a 980 that i need "nvidia"

I don't think that's true

13:58

if you have a 980 you can use the newer driver and you should

13:58

since it's the newer driver

13:58

the 390xx branch was the mainline driver at some point

hm it depends on some old linux headers that throw 404 on install

14:02

I think i rly want to run pacman -S nvidia=455.45.01-1 instead but have to dowgrade my package db to find it

normal mirrors don't have that packet anymore and that packet always depends on the latest linux version

14:04

you'd need to use the dkms-version to combine your kernel with an older driver

oof yikes

14:07

so dkms of nvidia right

yes

14:08

there's a downgrade or sth

hm dkms depends on kernel headers i dont have so i went with the binary

pacman -S linux-headers?

14:23

the binary only ever works with the latest version of linux

14:23

so if you downgrade the driver, you need to downgrade linux too

ChillerDragon: If you want an old package version, you need to manually download it from https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/ , install with pacman -U filename and add it to IgnorePkg in /etc/pacman.conf to prevent future updates to it

14:56

Sometimes useful when there is a bug in a newly released version

[quakenet] ChillerDragon

hm dkms depends on kernel headers i dont have so i went with the binary

instah the headers nobo

@deen the note about old driver and new kernel still applies, you can't combine these

yeah

yea i managed to do it the pacman -U archive way but still my graphics driver does not work :/

16:31

i am really out of ideas

did you install an old driver but have a new linux? that has no chance of working

ChillerDragon someone is going around tw botting with sash client with ur name+clan

No pinning in pacman?

u can prevent a package from updating

Ah, but you can’t get it to download an older one?

u usually dont want that on arolling distro :)

17:03

u have to download it manually

17:03

or use one from cache

17:03

pacman keeps like 3 previous versions or smth iirc

Actually it’s much more common to want an old package in a rolling distro. Same as wanting a newer package in stable distros

i dont think its more common

17:04

i never did it

3 should be good enough, very unlikely they keep it broken for 3 releases

the only thing i ever had a problem with was one kernel version

17:05

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/downgrading_packages

Downgrading packages

17:05

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/downgrader-git/

AUR (en) - downgrader-git

Powerful packages downgrader for Archlinux. Works with libalpm, ARM and pacman logs

17:05

look

17:05

a tool in the aur

oh @noby how u know its not me? :D

what i said doesnt imply that it isnt u

17:05

u use ur own name too

oof

17:06

are u asking?

i wasnt

17:06

but now i am

yikes

17:06

i can explain...

lmao

haha joke

deen ban him

no i sadly didnt play tw in a few days since my graphics driver is broken :/

rip

@heinrich5991 yea maybe a old version cant work but i assume its not the version anyways something went different after i reinstalled arch

17:07

i run out of ideas on how to fix or debug this

@noby if I make a mod that keeps ddnet's antibot interface can you just run the mod with your antibot running? (edited)

on which server

17:29

and yeah, what mod?

ChillerDragon: have you checked log output? what's even wrong, I don't think you told us

dmesg is chill jouralctl is well unrelated i guess

17:39

The problem is that when i install the nvidia driver only ports from my mainboard work and all ports on my gpu stop working :/ i did not find any error message anywhere

17:40

but the screens connected to my gpu are just blank and xrandr also only reports 1 screen that is connected to my motherboard or mainboard? idk hardware man

17:41

oh motherboard and mainboard seem to be somewhat interchangeable

17:41

well anyways i guess its a bad sign that my gpu ports stop working and i rly need the display port in there because my mainboard does only have hdmi

noby

and yeah, what mod?

idk. Just asking about whether it is practically possible for you to run a custom mod with your antibot. pepesweat

pepesweat

well yeah if someone makes a mod that keeps the interface then it could use the eyefollow / hook bot / hammer bot systems that ddnet is using

Cool

are u making a mod

idk

18:26

still deciding whether how much effort I'm willing to put into it

18:27

Deciding on*

18:27

Image attachment

what kinda mod

Some players been getting this lately. It will go away after restarting the client, but they can't download the map without closing the client.

@TsFreddie doit. That was our intention with this interface

noby

what kinda mod

Depends on how much effort I'm willing to put in

18:29

pepesweat

18:30

Probably none tho

doit and then ill trade rcon for the compiled lib kek

kek

Still trying to buy food myself

18:31

pepesweat

Chinese New year is coming up we have some events planning to do. and chn servers started to run out of empty servers for solo/high level players.

justatest

I always wonder what Tom does that would allow him to burn server money like this lol.

18:37

Image attachment

manages servers of big chn company

but he does buy servers

19:05

I think he contribute 250rmb/25euros a month alone.

19:06

We have some student servers that cost the same for a whole year. The other two chn servers are student discount servers iirc.

19:06

pepesweat

19:07

But you can only buy student server for a year so we probably need to rotate the server owners quite a bit.

@deen do you have statistics of the players who have the most time online?

status.tw has stats on that

not accuratye

19:15

Image attachment

19:15

this website came out in 2019

19:15

so it represents like 10%

19:15

or less

i remember something that was better at all

19:19

it had everything about player

u mean this teeinfo site

19:19

i forgot the name like the one that was there before status.tw

teestats.info ?

maybe

19:22

no snaps on waybackmachine :(

sad

idk why my name dont work, it show name on mayus

Image attachment

@TsFreddie if it's less work to get a more expensive server, you can do that, and I can send you guys the money

20:01

so should we run more servers on CHN again?

I wish I could play on CHN sadblob

sadblob

after 5 minutes of playing the lags get worse and worse over time

yeah, thank the great chinese firewall

what happens if you go on CHN server and tell the truth about CCP?

The nice people hosting the CHN servers might get into trouble, so don't do that please

1

I increased the number of CHN servers a bit

23:30

@Cristian we have teehistorian, but don't parse it well yet

23:31

so we could offer that info in the futrure

23:34

but that's also only since 2018 I think
