Topic: teewars in the linux console?

just as the title asks is there any way to play teewars with out the Xwindow system (example using aalib, svgalib, or the framebuffer) wikipdia says there was a thing for quake for playing with ascii characters i think it would be cool to have an equivalent for teewars (at least for the framebuffer if not the text console)

my name is NOT clasic_traveller_die its CLASIC_TRAVELLER_DIEHARD classic traveller is a si-fi rpg from the same era as dungens and dragons lookit up on wikipedia smile

Re: teewars in the linux console?

Try this one (I'm not sure that this will work): be sure to have SDL compiled with AALIB support (if they're no, get the sources and run `./configure --enable-video-aalib` before compiling and installing), then set SDL_VIDEODRIVER env var to aalib and run teewars (`SDL_VIDEODRIVER=aalib teewars`, maybe you won't need this if you're runnig teewars from a real console).

If you try let us know smile

Dio Bastardo!

AFAIK teeworlds uses openGL so it does not work.
