The frame is drawn on every complete cycle of the event sheet. So if i understand you correctly, you'd want to do an

IF not all sounds are loaded - Load 1 sound, add 1 progress.

That should add 1 every frame.

Interpolation is imperative if your not using prediction. Not all clients can keep the same rate of transfer, never mind ridiculous latency to someone on the other side of a country, or the world. I urge you to read the paper Valve Software published on their wiki on the matter.

Hell go play Quake 3, then go play IOQuake 3 with the "fixed networking", huge difference with the improved prediction. Yes I know Quake 3 has prediction, but the fixes make it near bullet proof.

My apologies, I meant that you shouldn't have to be the one that makes the interpolation - You should only have to make the object while the user deals with that - As its usually completely different coding for different cases i would have thought...

Anyway, thanks for the article! I really look forward to reading it <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy">

SOOO good hahaha

Arsonide, you shouldn't really have to do ay interpolation (I believe its called "Dead Reckoning" in online games). We just need an object that can send/receive packets along subchannels, sign into channels, assigns unique IDs to every client, etc. etc.

Also, OINC/Lacewing for MMF2 is cool because the servers can be written in python using something called "POINC".

I donated a while back... Can't remember how significant it was. Keep it up lads

amazing

Rich was working on one... But we haven't heard anything from that in months..

I think MMF's OINC seems to have the right idea. He's coded it so it can talk to servers made not justin MMF - Somone has made a python server library, so people make their servers in python and the clients in MMF. This would be awesome with construct.

Also, i just found this-

It seems to be python librarys that use the raknet system... Interesting

too true.

HALLELUJAH
