Windows help

1) I try to build bitfighter, and it builds. But it is still only 017b. I check the repository, it is updated. When it runs, i get this on exit:
Visual C++ Error wrote:Unhandled exception at 0x759aa4b9 in bitfighter_d.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xfeeefeee.


2) In GameType.Cpp, how do i add multiple death messages that will display either in order or randomly? I mean this code:
  Code:
if(killer)  // Known killer, was self, robot, or another player
   {
      if(killer == victim)
         if(killerDescr == "mine")
            clientGame->displayMessage(Color(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.8f), "%s mine'd self", victim.getString());
         else
            clientGame->displayMessage(Color(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.8f), "%s comitted suicide", victim.getString());
      else
         if(killerDescr == "mine")
            clientGame->displayMessage(Color(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.8f), "%s was mine'd by %s", victim.getString(), killer.getString());
         else
            clientGame->displayMessage(Color(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.8f), "%s zapped %s", killer.getString(), victim.getString());
   }
   else if(killerDescr == "mine")   // Killer was some object with its own kill description string
      clientGame->displayMessage(Color(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.8f), "%s was mine'd", victim.getString());
   else if(killerDescr != "")
      clientGame->displayMessage(Color(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.8f), "%s %s", victim.getString(), killerDescr.getString());
   else         // Killer unknown
      clientGame->displayMessage(Color(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.8f), "%s got zapped", victim.getString());
#endif

You can already see i changed the current ones. :P

Re: Windows help

Hi, if you downloaded the source code with mercurial, from this URL:

https://code.google.com/p/bitfighter/source/checkout

Then make sure you update to the 'tip' of the repository.

As for your messages, I am not sure I understand what you want to do. Could you be more specific?

Re: Windows help

Ah I think he means that when you die one time, it says (Ex: your dead). And the next time you die it says (Ex: You got zapped mate!) and the third time (Ex: Haha you got shot) and the fourth (Ex: FAIL) etc
