I saw your sig and thought 'That won't work' but your looking pretty good!

I've been thinking about making an MMO-FPS Hybrid (ya, long shot, but if I don't even try my brother will bring death upon me ), and servers have been really bugging me. So are you just running the server on your/one of your computers? Or do you purchase a game server?

Hey, just out of curiosity, have you found any work around for the 256 (or was it 255?) player limit?

I believe through the use of 3rd party plug-ins.

common people are walking in line.

Multisync can have more then the DBPro user limit?
Even if it can, I just had a mental breakthrough that would let you run MMORPGs a lot faster, and using the DBPro multiplayer command set. Only problem is that when using the DBPro command set, a lot of people have been complaining about not being able to connect to games, and for some reason, anything I make dosn't work. Oh well... I've gone a bit off topic, sorry

Multi sync is unlimited, I'd wait until benjamin releases the new improved version before working on it because syntax may change

On a 2mbps down /256k up connection i can host 30 players before we see lag so I wouldn't worry about the 256 limit for a while you're gona need alot of bandwith to host that many people anyway.

Also my 30 players generate 1Gb of traffic per day!

ya, i use multisync....

but i would still like the mods to lock this, because it wont be updated for a while. and:

i was thinking about that a while ago. i just hope ben releases it near the end of the nvidia compo so that i can get to work right away on Deathquest

@Gatorhex I think 1GB for only 30 clients in one day shows that you are sending more information at a time then needed, personally in a day I think that 30 people should only use about 100MB at the most in one day.

What type of program is it?
And how are you sending the data? every loop?

well, im going to continue this project now that the compo is pretty much over. but let this thread die please. or a mod lock it or something... ill make a new post when im ready with new screenshots and such.

also, @master xilo: i decided to use planes for the grass. it makes the foliage in mmos a lot more "full" but i will eventually add shaders to everything else
