Because it seems to be pretty tough for people to create models from basic geometry in Sauerbraten, here are some steps to create your own models!
I'm considering you already know how to create a map inside Sauerbraten, so I won't put anything about that in the tutorial.
I'm also considering you're using the windows version of Sauerbraten, installed on it's default way. So do me a favour and don't ask about how to create a model using mac, linux, or any other OS.
1. First start up Sauerbraten on your regular way.
2. Press /newmap when your able to, after Sauerbraten loaded all files, etc.
3. Create some basic geometry, like a simple cube (just as test).
4. Delete any other geometry that's inside the map, except that cube.
5. Press /writeobj cube. After you did that, an .obj-file and a .mtl-file will be written by Sauerbraten in it's main-folder (called cube)
I read in the readme that you can make Red Eclipse run in anaglyph/stereoscopic mode. I'm totally psyched by the idea of playing my favorite game with 3-d glasses. Is this actually possible, an if so could someone tell me how?
Peace out.
I would just like to share this blender file of a stun baton with the community.
It is based on the png image attached.
My intention was to complete the animation with an electricity effect, and jaws style zapping sound. (da, dump, da, dump etc. za, zap, za, zap etc.)
Other commitments are taking my time at present. Please use this if you wish it is 100% my work and GPL.
It would be great to know if anyone moves it forward, please post to this thread.

As some of you may know, I've been working on an extenxive campaign game for Sauerbraten,and I've run into a point where I think falshing/flickering lighting would add a cool effect to the map. I was wondering if there were anyway to create a changing lightmap for the map. I know that you can deposit the light maps into a set of .bmps, and I was wodering if there was a command that I could use in the .cfg that would allow me to switch between two different lightmaps to creat this effect. Is this possible? or is there any other way that this can be achieved?
Hello my name is 2vok, and i am registered a long time here, doin nothing. As my name on Sauerbraten is "nothing", some of you might have heard of me. (surely not as a good player ;-)). But there is one thing i would like you to know: As i registered on www.nooblounge.net, i found friends on mumble. We did a little community, to build maps and released them on a server, held by the founder of nooblounge. You can download this mappackage from "maplounge", which is a site on www.nooblounge.net. But the point is: as i found out, there are much more talented mappers out there, than we are. And we would like to invite you, to publish your maps on a server, where only maps are played, that are not yet content of sauerbraten. I do commit, that i downloaded the mappackage from www.quadmapserver.com, so i know that you already have realised an idea like this, but do not follow to it anymore. Maybe you could give us the permission to use your great maps (as i have seen them on quadmapserver or here on this site), and the better it would be to see you playing on maploungeserver, which you can reach on: /connect nooblounge.net 11110. I hope you are interested and would appreciate if you send me: "nothing" a private message on www.nooblounge.net. After this i will contact you to see, if we find an agreement. Sincerely yours 2vok/nothing
Ok,so i am an EPIC FAIL coder, no matter the engine. I wanted to create a game mode, but i am, shamefully horrid at coding, so because of my "disability" if you will, i am posting this as an official request at a new set of game modes: Infection/InstaInfection. If anyone would either help me learn the bare essentials of cubescript, or make these game modes, i would be very grateful.
