All Activity

That story reminded me this Credits again for https://www.instagram.com/0ad_memes_eae/?hl=es-la

I can imagine that it's a fun lifestyle. I used to know a few ballroom dances, but those are usually only done on special occasions like weddings here. And last time I danced at one, it got me into a minor fight with my wife. It could be something about me touching another woman that she didn't like. We'll never know! So anyway, perhaps I already am beyond the end, where I just don't dance anymore.

Never mind, It was a bug in my main code.

@Boudica Hahaha, I knew one of those was much longer and actually a combination of three names. how could I have missed it!? In the end, this crossword was much more difficult and creative than I expected. Putting aside the controversial -but fun- technique used for some players in 0 A.D., the secret message is a true story and an activity we should all keep doing until the end. And I truly love it, so I’ll keep doing it !

Great job, @guerringuerrin. I missed one of the missing words on the second line, which is the first part of the three-word name that you already found. The remaining letters (left to right, top to bottom) give the secret message. Regarding the smurfs: The puzzle wasn't intended to endorse making alt accounts. Anyway, it just seems comical for someone to have so many of those that you can make a crossword out of them. I believe that the names mostly had been reported in the past. Not sure if they can be logged into, but they still can be found, so it seems that no action has been taken on them. I can remember what felt like a one-off event during which some people were made to use their original account, but that was a long time ago and it might seem like a waste of time reporting the same few guys who can be seen with a new account every month.

I know you're tired of hearing it, but I feel I have to repeat it here once more: Using smurf accounts is a violation of the Terms of Use. If you encounter smurfs or players using duplicate accounts for other reasons, please report them to a lobby moderator.

Hi, How do I change this (custom build) to a real number for my own version? Thanks in advance.

The first two i didn't know about it but I missed the third!

The Flathub version is 27.1, up-to-date since three days ago. We do maintain it.

If you want to play same level just clone yourself... otherwise that not possible. Even we "pros" are not the same...

What seems to be the problem?

Why don't wait until 27.1 ported to flatpak? Flatpak is recommended by developer if you're using Debian (me LMDE). They should've maintained this repo.

My suggestion at this point is to uninstall 0 A.D. by using the command line (terminal). The reason for that is to purge 0 A.D. from your system. Uninstalling 0 A.D. through flatpak may not delete everything. As a quickie suggestion ask both Grok and ChatGPT the following: "How to uninstall 0 A.D. by using the command line with Linux Mint.". You can also make a post on the Mint forum website. There are different methods for installing 0 A.D. your problem may be associated with that. Grok provided the text below: "grep" searches for the presence of 0 A.D. in each of the installation methods. Theoretically you should only see one listing. If there are more listings, it is possible that they are conflicting. It will be necessary to uninstall (purge) 0 A.D. from your computer and then choose one method to install. Both Grok and ChatGPT provide advice on that. I think the ChatGPT gave better advice. One piece of advice that ChatGPT listed as optional was:"sudo apt purge 0ad 0ad-data". I would not consider that as optional. But you need to be aware that it removes your user data. Since you are just getting the program setup, the user data, at this time, should not be an issue. Of course I need to add the disclaimer that any advice from either Grok or ChatGPT can be wrong (that includes me too), that you need to be careful, and you should think through any command before executing.

I am on Linux Mint XFCE, and I have installed the flatpack version from the software manager but cannot use latest alpha. Although update manager is noticing me the game has a new update, it seems there is something wrong as it does not update the game when download finishes. Also I am a new Linux user, just installed the OS some days ago, so I might be missing something. Anyway I am going to use 27.0 until a find the way to build the 27.1 as @ffm2 suggested to me.

Thank you so much!

Oooh that is the former, outdated git clone of our historical SVN repo. It is archived since summer 2024. The current repository is at https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad

What version of Linux is @Essential Strategyusing? With Mint, you can download 0 A.D. through flathub (flatpak) from the software manager. See image below. If not using Mint, check your distribution for the ability to access flathub.

Thank you for the warm welcome , it's much appreciated. I am building the game from a Git clone using the following repository: 'https://github.com/0ad/0ad.git' I noticed that the file get-nightly-binaries.bat is not present in the repository. I have also installed the vc141 toolset in VS2022. Should I manually download additional files, such as shaders or translations, from the nightly builds in order to run the game correctly? Thank you for your assistance.

Hi and welcome to the forums. We're a few days away from supporting building with VS 2022, there is an almost ready PR that you could test: #8176 If you're using the main branch or the nightly build, VS 2017 is the only supported compiler (though you could use the vc141 toolset in VS2022) until that PR is merged. And lastly, if you're building from a git clone, you'll need to download Vulkan shaders and translations from the nightly build using `binaries/system/get-nightly-binaries.bat`, or else you'll have the game fall back to OpenGL.

Hi, I'm trying to build 0 A.D. from source on Windows using Visual Studio 2022. The build completes successfully, but when I run `pyrogenesis.exe`, the game crashes with the following assertion: "Assertion failed: "0 <= pass && pass < static_cast<int>(m_Passes.size())" Location: shadertechnique.cpp:79 (CShaderTechnique::GetGraphicsPipelineState)" This happens during GUI rendering, and the call stack shows references to CCanvas2D and shader bindings. I did run `update-workspaces.bat` and built with `MSBuild pyrogenesis.sln /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=x64`. I also cleared the shader cache at: %LOCALAPPDATA%\0ad\cache But the crash still occurs. Do you have any advice on how to fix this or properly reset the graphics pipeline/shaders? Thanks in advance!

Yes i see this

Your "casual" category falls between newbies and regulars? That's maybe even the most prominent one. The player base is small and it is for every level hard to find matching strength. The small community has it's charm too, you'll know the players soon and can compare your progress. On e.g. lichess there's a lot of players you rarely get to know one by name. But you can get a game at any time of the day on your elo score and on your preferred setting.

Well, I'm casual player, and I feel it is ridiculous difficult to find same level players. I find only regulars, smurfs or newbies. That makes me constantly want to forget this game again.

Thanks for dedicating time to helping newcomers! I recommend not pointing end users to the git repo, as there are several extra steps to perform (shaders, translations, etc). It is better to point to building from the released source archives: https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/wiki/CompilingUsingTheReleaseSourceArchives Additionally the "release-a27.1" branch will be deleted soon, the permanent way to get the release tree is to use the tag "a27.1".

Which linux? E.g. arch has it in their repos already since some hours. https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/0ad/ Odd, that that site doesn't work for you but the forum. If you only play a bit single player you could maybe stick around a bit with 27.0 for a while until it's in your repo. From that site you usually need only the dependency list (apart from whats already posted): sudo pacman -S --needed awk openal m4 boost cmake curl enet fmt gcc gloox grep icu libgl libogg \ libpng libsodium libvorbis libxml2 llvm make miniupnpc patch pkg-config python \ rust sdl2 subversion wxwidgets-gtk3 zip zlib Or: sudo apt install build-essential cargo cmake curl libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \ libboost-filesystem-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libenet-dev libfmt-dev \ libfreetype-dev m4 libgloox-dev libicu-dev libminiupnpc-dev libnvtt-dev \ libogg-dev libopenal-dev libpng-dev libsdl2-dev libsodium-dev libvorbis-dev \ libwxgtk3.2-dev libxml2-dev llvm python3 rustc subversion zlib1g-dev
