@khev: ive also experienced that once but i already forgot how i did it..sorry..

So many bugs, hey so could anyone explain how to setup the Hamachi. When I tried it on a previous version, it didn't work.

Edit
Also how did you guys do it? When I try Switches it still doesn't work. It just keeps restarting when I exit the game.

[Xzygon]

I got it setup with Hamachi ^.^

1 Download Hamachi

2 Install Hamachi

3 Go into Hamachi, click the little triangle thing in the bottom right corner and click Create a Network

4 So you've created your network. Move on to the next step.

5 Figure out what your hamachi ip is.

6 Go into RMVX scripts.

7 Go to the "Config" script.

8 On line 8, change it so it looks something like this

CODE

Host = ["(Hamachi IP here)", 50000]

9 Minimize RMVX.

10 Open the server window

11 Go to the server tab and put your Hamachi IP in the server Host spot.

12 Start your server

Once you're done with these steps, go check to see if it works. If it doesn't, check to see what you did wrong.

Is your Hamachi IP in all the proper places?
Is the SQL connecting properly?
Are you using the right client for the server?

[Michael]

Okay thanks, so then how do I get the switches to work?

[Kwan]

Dont forget, if you want someone to play on your server they will need hamachi also and be logged in to the network Xzyzon told you to make or it wont connect.

Yeah, I forgot to add the part where if you want people to connect, they have to connect to your network by you giving them the pass and name to your network. xD.

Anyways, I'm currently testing to see if Hamachi works. I'm using 2 computers (a laptop and a desktop) with Hamachi. Soon I'll test if it works when a computer is not in your network. Sometimes it doesn't, so that's why I'm testing it ^.^

Okay thanks, so then how do I get the switches to work?

Self switches don't work for me too. When I use switches, no problems.

[Michael]

Yeah true, don't worry Switches work for me now.

[Xzygon]

Odd, just tested the multiplayer function. A couple of bugs -
(Sorry for no pictures to explain better)
My laptop is the one hosting the server.
On the desktop, I can see the other perfectly fine. There's a glitch though when the other player walks. It takes about half a second for the player's movement to follow on the other screen. That's perfectly okay, except when the player moves and then turns around, it looks like on one screen that the player is walking backwards.
To sum it up, it looks like player1 is walking backwards to player2 when on player1's screen he's/she's just basically moving forward then turning around.

Another glitch. On player1's screen, Player1 can't see player2. But Player2 can see player1.
**That's without equipment on. With equipment on Player1 can see Player2**

Edit - Found another one while messing with the friend screen.
When player 2 asks to be Player1's friend, and Player1 says okay, Player2 doesn't show up in Player1's screen, but Player1 shows up in Player2's screen. And Player1 can keep continuously adding Player2 as a friend, but nothing happens.

Yeah that has happened before, maybe its the internet connection? Or just a buggy, annoying glitch. Tty using LAN (Local Area Network) if you were using Wireless.

[Xzygon]

It's probably just a glitch, cuz I *somewhat* fixed it. Unfortunately, PvP doesn't really work either. I'm testing it, and I miss every single time. Hit a combo of 5* several times with each being a miss.

Monsters are client-sided, unfortunately. They should be handled by the server. It looks odd when one player sees another player standing and talking on top of a ghost.

3rd glitch of the post. when someone talks on one map, the chat carries across all the maps, regardless of where you are or what commands you use.

Thatss pretty bad, so you mean when a character kills a ghost, it doesn't show its killed on the others screen?

[Xzygon]

Exactly. The monsters are all client-sided, but the flashes when the character gets hit from the monsters still show. Monsters look weird when they're being walked on by other things.

[wyvern_rider]

Yeah, That is because the ABS it´s still a beta.
Anyone here knows a bit of Netplay prograaming, I´m trying to make a turn based system...
I have the idea to how to make it but i need to change the DB, someune know how to change it?

[Xzygon]

@wyvern
A turn-based multiplayer game you mean? That might be accomplished. I know there's a game somewhere where several people can jump into a battle at once, but it's like a gauge sort of battle system. xD. It's from a website called Gods Of Time. The entering-battle system might be similar to what you're looking for, but I'm pretty sure the battle system itself is not.

And I don't know how to change DBs, sorry.
