becase he wanted the graphics code to run better.

it isn't fubared, we can probly use the D3D or OGL layer

[jbond04]

Well, when you think you've got it working, I'll be more than happy to be the guinea pig (for long term stability or whatever).

[Lightspeed]

I saw a working game!

Ping, Conn type etc showed up fine. T'was ingame - i'll have to try this tomorrow again.

[ChronoReverse]

T'was us =)

We had fun methinks.

[jbond04]

I've got a server up now...if anyone wants to join.  Me and jdjtcagle are waiting.

[Bobboau]

ahrg!
that'll teach me to use target in my reticle!

[Kazan]

mwahaha

[Bobboau]

would it be posable to get the lobby back?
or is that the IRC thingy I remember some people talking about a while back

[Kazan]

the lobby was simply an integrated IRC - once i get the main server stablized i'll look around and see if i can find that code


oh yeah - I NEED SOME VICTIMS! - I think i have the dogfight stats storage problem fixed

[ChronoReverse]

I'll be there in 5 minutes

[Kazan]

sweet

[Kazan]

what's going on chrono - i see you connect and then your connection die

[Bobboau]

I was trying to get on

somehting weird going on, you'r game will show up for a second as unknown <56k, and it once filled the screen with that

[Kazan]

weirdness... i had my game up for a second - i have seen that bug before too but it happens very fleetingly so i cannot put a thumb on it -- i started a game just to make sure the tracker wasn't being beserk because i had just restarted it with a new compile

i cannot host as the IP it sends out is all wrong

[Kazan]

chrono has a game up (get on ICQ!)

[Starks]

Kazan, what settings do you use for your Force 3D?

[Kazan]

nothing out of the ordinanary....


oh yeah.. new build posted - dogfight stats save now

i think i know why the last flight time wasn't storing... a nother one of the alterations to the database i had lost and now i think i've fixed..

[ChronoReverse]

Hey, Kazan, did your tracker server just crash?

[Gregster2k]

Wow. I just tested this out and boy was it fun to have the novelty of FS2 in multiplayer again!
(Last time I actually played online FS2 was on PXO on dialup and it was laggy as hell. I missed the broadband boat for FS2 *ENTIRELY*)
Great work!!!



This kind of thing really puts a smile on my face, even though for some reason my connect to the "fake PXO" we have here died right after the game ended (?!)

I still have the hope that someday ppl will be allowed to join FS2 games when they've already begun. (such an option would be for "objective-less multiplayer missions", ala DM style fights, no Terran Command, no rules, no Beta Aquilae Convention, just KILL EVERYTHING THAT HAS AN ENGINE SIGNATURE )

[ChronoReverse]

Yeah, it was fun.  Too bad the server tracker died somewhere in the middle of our game so that our stats weren't tracked.

Oh well, I didn't manage to kill that hecate anyways.


And I think that the dogfight missions would be perfect for join-on-the-fly
