  • I think it's the memory allocated to save sound and images ... before passing the files to the GPU , you need to allocate an array and put it all in it , then you send the data to the GPU to get it drawn , I don't know if images are stored on the GPU or on the CPU , but I'm sure sounds are stored on the CPU

  • Setup a server using node.js (coding it) , and then connect C2 to that server and send messages between the two ...

    I will quote this excellent post from mars , he helped me shed light on my ignorance xD

    Let me help you understand and setup a basic home server

    running node.js.

    FYI: I would recommend that you DON'T do this on your primary home computer - try setting this on on a old computer if you have one. You don't want to mess up your primary computer.

    Or you could eventually set one up as a virtual machine using VMWare Workstation but that's a whole other topic.

    Anyways: Follow these steps and you should understand what Node.js is and how to setup a simple home web server. Please watch these in order and entirety.

    **If you have a domain name then you can use it instead of localhost and simple go to your domain registrar and create an A Record that points to your home computers IP address:

    This isn't the easiest thing in the world to do - if you get stuck - remember to Google or YouTube it first - there is a lot of good information out there.

    Finally , here's a home-made tutorial from one of the members

    Tutorial

    Basically , if you want a server , you'll have to code it using javascript , and run it from a computer , it can be a vps (a private server , google it) , and you need to connect C2 to that server , and then , you can exchange messages between the server and the client , that's multiplayer in a nutshell ...

    If you don't want to learn javascript , you'll have to wait for project bubble , that let's you code a server FROM C2

  • I say Meh ...

    Had a look at it , More like CC , even so , I would personally prefer CC ,

    But I would strongly advise you to ...

  • It happens when the tiles are not the same size , you'll need to cut them manually in your favorite image editor

  • I would prefer the dictionnary on an array , as a dictionnary has no fixed size , so you can add a key without affecting your code much , but otherwise , I don't see any other difference between the two , Imagine the array as a table of a fixed size , and the dictionnary as an infinite list

  • Hey there dude , long time no see , any progress on this ?

  • Sebastian

    Because it doesn't reflect the current state of things , as of now , if posts are revived , they can contain old depreciated stuff or problems that have been already solved , and that can create wrong thinking ...

    It's better to just create a new topic

  • perlin noise for javascript , how about diamond/square ? It looks like Perlin Noise and it's easy to implement

  • dude, where is the proof , do you have testimonials , this is just talk with nothing to back itup

  • It looks pretty interesting , I'll have a look to the Socket.IO libraries ...

    Maybe make a basic plugin to send messages between a Server and a Plugin IN C2 and without server-side coding , my domain is not javascript so I can't promise anything but i'll have a look ...

  • Oh , you misplaced this post :)

    Your post should be in tools ...

    Kyatric , could you fix this ?

  • I'll be the project director

    No , this won't work

    Everyone wants to be the director , but does one really have the experience needed ?

    How much game did you make , publish ? Design documents you wrote ?

    No one likes directors , everyone hates BAD directors
