Online Game Development In Game Maker

[GameUltra 0]

Does anyone here use the program called "Game Maker"? If you do I'd like to have a discussion about the Online features of Game Maker.First of all I have a few questions for you regarding your preference on connecting.1. Do you like a IP/TCP, Serial Connection, Modem Connection, or DLX? Why do you think it's the best?2. Do you use Direct Connet (Mplay), or a Socket System (like GMSock)? What is you logic for this?3. How do you dead-reckon for games that involve a moving object?4. Do you prefer sending garaunteed messages or not garuanteed but faster messages, how do you decide on when to use each transmittion?

1. Definately IP/TCP, just because it's the best , don't know why, I just like it.2. GMSock, because MPlay is less safe and my father always wants the most safe-system so... 3. ???????????????? Don't understand the question ???????????????????? 4. I always use guaranteed messages, unless it takes to much time.greetingz, -= Me =-

I've never used RPG Maker XP before, so I can't help you there.Warbird, dead-reckoning is where you write your script to geuss where a moving object should be at any given point if the data sent from one end doesn't transmit clearly, or breaks up somewhere.

I'm now starting a new online game using GMSock, however I've already done online, so now I'm going to try online and 3d at the same time, it might be a bit hard, however it'll be the 3d part, I've only tried 3D a few times.I don't think it'll be too hard, just need to make sure it's drawing perfectly...OK, well I'm off to go work on my game.

I would suggest the yoyo games web site. It contains a tutorial on creating a multiplayer game using GML and game makers bult in multiplayer commands. You will need the paid version of game maker to use it though.

not easyOnline Game Development In Game Maker

to make a mmorpg you are going need the following things

A SERVER running:

mysql

php

knowledge in php

knowledge in gml

apache

also you may need the user to play with sockets

its best to use a server which is owned by another companie that provides access to it. As using your own server will eat your internet connection it must be running 24/7 and general will be a pain as it will constantly want maintenance.

DO NOT USE A FREE ONE they will not serve php/mysql and will use your page like a advertising billboard. Make sure they give at least 10gb of space php/mysql (with at least 50 databases) I found a service that offered unlimeted mysql databases 750Gb of space and 7500gb of traffic/month for only $10 SO DO NOT PAY $100/M FOR IT
