Heyho guys,

I'm new here and I want to give you all a great hug. Blue_Wink1

So are there any graphic options for this game? I noticed I can't activate antialiasing here in this game. What's the difference between 0.75 and 0.76, which one to download? I noticed there are less servers for 0.76. Why is that?

When was this game last updated? Do you guys still update this game?

Hope I'll enjoy my stay.

Goodbye!

Hello! Welcome to Build and Shoot. The game currently has no real graphical options. Although you can add texture packs for it you can not really change the game the way looks. The difference between 0.75 and 0.76 is that .76 has no public hacks made yet, the rifle was nerfed, the smg was changed as well. There are less servers for 0.76 as not many people play it this is mostly because it is lesser known. The game was last updated around april of earlier of 2011 but the official version was last updated a few months ago(don't buy it). We(build and Shoot) are not allowed to mess with the source code of the game.

Why have you wrote "Don't buy it" ?

So you're saying that you won't update past 0.76? I was hoping you guys update this game every month or so.

The game is updated weekly by the players. The community can make maps, their own gamemode, their own scrips like airstrikes, scopes/iron-sights, and even texture packs. The game was bought out in april of 2012 and released in November of 2012 by Jagex. They completely took away everything that made the game great and fun and ripped off the community. The beta versions have so much more features then the steam version and its free; thats why I said don't buy it.

Great, I've downloaded few mods and I must admit, I got addicted.

Thank you very much for your answers & hope to see you online.

Welcome to AoS!
If you would like antialiasing, you will have to hack the utter shit out of the code and wade through a bunch of hand-crafted SSE-laden asembler written by the one and only Ken Silverman. This game is software-rendered, and not dependent on your GPU.

This game isn't updated anymore except for scripts and stuff done for pysnip, but there is a remake called Iceball if you're interested which is notably more moddable and is open source. It has a (notably slower than AoS's) software renderer, and an OpenGL renderer.

Let me add that even on my 7 year old piece of shit laptop, the OpenGL render is as smooth as AoS. On new computers with stronger graphics cards it should be better. Good Job Grease!

Yeah, as long as it's not a GMA-based netbook, it should run fairly smoothly.

If it IS a GMA-based netbook... my condolences. We DO need to get these slow bastards working well, but at the moment you will probably be suffering a bit.
