"While it may not be the case with EVERY 3D game out there, the overwhelming majority feel the need to equip you a chainsaw, an axe, a dagger, a cleaver, or a #%@n' tuba."

an idea: add a "secret tuba" chamber to one of the stock maps, thats right under a crowded area, and completely sealed off, only a teleport leads in (so tuba cent be taken out), and if someone gets there he can make a music for the players, who probably wont understand whats going on
That's a great idea! It shouldn't be difficult to do that, actually. Can we have an easily accessible midi controller interface for Xonotic then, too? I know divVerent was able to play the tuba (and by that, the player's movement) via a midi keyboard, but I don't know whether the midi control support ships with Xonotic neither how to set it up :o/
Another problem would be that you could hear the tuba only when standing near to the sealed room... is there way to play the sound produced by the tuba as ambient sound on various locations of the map so that you could sort of implement a distributed loudspeaker system?
And, while we're at it, is it possible to code polyphony for the tuba?
Then we'd need only VST plugin support and there you go
All that sounds like an awful lot of work for a basically "only" funny idea. But I bet if divVerent would want it he'd be even able to implement antilag for multiplayer music matches. o.O
EDIT2: wtf is wrong with this forum, looking at the html source it seems to have put a ZWS in the code box as well?!
I don't get it.
Just go there: http://git.xonotic.org/?p=xonotic/xonoti...;a=summary
Click "xonotic-v0.1.0preview" in tags, then "tree" then at "input-tuba.cfg" click "blob" or "raw"
Halogene: Hmm that's very odd, here i'll just paste the text for you in a code box:
Code:
// Play the @!#%'n Tuba with your MIDI keyboard!
//
// Use the keyboard's octave button to adjust the octave, this one matches the
// power-on default of a MIDISTART-3.
//
// NOTE: currently only works with ALSA on Linux, and then like this:
// aconnect -l -i
// Find your MIDI keyboard in this list. Assuming it is client 20, port 0,
// run Xonotic with:
// ./xonotic -sndseqin 20:0 +exec input-tuba.cfg
// Then, grab a Tuba, then play notes on your MIDI keyboard!
//
// If you have no keyboard input, you can map the tuba notes to your keyboard:
// in_bindmap 3 0
// for US keyboard layout, and
// in_bindmap 4 0
// for German keyboard layout
