I don't see this in there  :sad:

[mrmiguu]

@ Gohan: It's not yet. I just made the frame counts decided by the options.ini file in the server to allow developers without VB6 to use the engine dynamically. I will add the sprite specific frames later.

Miguu? Maybe u can add some of the EO tuts to your engine? Because the we dont have to redo all the shit whit every new version :P

@RoX:

> Miguu? Maybe u can add some of the EO tuts to your engine? Because the we dont have to redo all the shit whit every new version :P

It all depends. I don't use tuts anymore since it's not original code. If I was to make my own game on an engine, I'd want the engine as clean as possible as a nice structure for my game. I wouldn't like deleting unwanted features. [PV] Origins is meant to have the simplicity of [EO] while having the gameplay characteristics of any general side-scroller.

well nice engine i will report one thing

when more than 1 player log into game they receive packet flood i just change packet control to 200 but the server lags and lack of synchronism

Which engine is this? [PV] Origins or the Stable version?

I don't think Stable is "Packet flooding". I'm pretty sure thats Origins.

both I guess
Same here on pvo
Origins I dont try with other player on

I will wait until the next release to see if this error continues

[mrmiguu]

I debugged the packets received by players into inputting a server message. I only counted up to 70+ at most. I suppose you can alter the data packet limit to your needs. It might be a combination of my shitty coding and your slow computer/network.

[DshWinchester]

' Check for packet flooding
        If TempPlayer(Index).DataPackets > 100 Then
            HackingAttempt Index, "Packet Flooding"
            Exit Sub
        End If

my bad  ;-d

[ramoneknot]

i must report miguu i have dedicated server with 100mb internet conection and computer have good hardware i am using the engine without any custom code only to test and i get this packet flooding wihen the second player joins  (vertigo origins), and i'm reporting this for the vertigo staff look at this when release next versions..

best regards

i have experience in games made in elysium and i wanna upgrade then to origins

if you look now i have 2 games with 50+ players online each

[mrmiguu]

@ramoneknot:

> I'm reporting this for the **vertigo staff** look at this when release next versions..

Lol. Vertigo staff? You mean me?

I didn't mean to offend you. Do you run either of the two other games in Origins? I don't know why you're getting lag. It's not like that many more packets are being sent than the original origins. The only packet I could think of that would maybe lag your computer is the one sending the player animations.

[ramoneknot]

ok other thing i must report to you is stats cant be more than 250 or causes rte 6 and level too

[Ruins of Hell]

Yes we know. That's not a bug. It's called bytes and they can only store up to 255\. If you want more, you'll need to change it.

[ramoneknot]

yea i made it but get others errors in getplayernextlevel

[mrmiguu]

@ramoneknot:

> yea I made it but get others errors in getplayernextlevel

I didn't mess with that piece of code. All I did **LITERALLY** was take a clean copy of [EO] 1.1.0 and add physics to it. That bug should be reported to _**Robin**_, not me.

[ramoneknot]

ok mr. miggu thanks anyway for your great work

[Sr_Sirius]

Miguu i love you too much.

[mrmiguu]

Apparently I should "stay puft," whatever that means.

If you guys are going to report "lag" and "unsynchronized" coordinates, be a bit specific. State the event in which this occured during, how it happened, how it looked, how long it lasted, and any other specifics.

[Chief]

Miguu, you and I shall elope to the mountains and have babies… no homo.

[Sr_Sirius]

Miguu seriusly i really love you.
