Uhh.... 70 topics?

dummy@example.com (amanda24) — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 02:54:10 +0000

There are only 9 topics and there certanly aren't 369 (LOL MMF2 Dev price) posts yet. Are there hidden forums or something where you guys have parties?

Denied Channel Name $

dummy@example.com (Jamie McLaughlin) — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 09:39:21 +0000

Jamie, a few months ago you said you'd add an expression to get the name of a channel that was Denied from joining. Will it be featured in the next build?

Thanks,

Pylacewing questions

dummy@example.com (Mathias Kærlev) — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 14:10:49 +0000

Hi. I'm currently working on a pylacewing server.
I've been wanting to post questions about pylacewing a long time ago. But everytime I want to ask something I seem to solve it myself before asking XD
So there may be more questions in the future. But I have just one for now:

Currently I notice that sometimes users disconnect randomly but the peer still exists in the server (it becomes unresponsive and a user can't take the name anymore to log in). It takes a very long time before they eventually time out.
How does the server check whether a peer is still connected. And how can I make it check more often or manually? I assume it has something to do with the serverfactory's variables, but I'm not sure what they all mean.

Binary Array

dummy@example.com (Jacob) — Wed, 26 May 2010 00:38:11 +0000

Is there any reason that the binary array does not have a way to retrieve the workspace name? That seems like pretty lazy coding there, eh Jamie?

Nah, but is there any way to do this? I am trying to get an index of my workspaces based on their names, in the format X;Y, from 0;0 to 13;13, the formula of which would be y*14+x.

Oh my gosh, what happened?

dummy@example.com (LB) — Sun, 23 May 2010 03:42:35 +0000

The background of the forums is all messed up! What happened?

What exactly happens when changing username?

dummy@example.com (Mathias Kærlev) — Sun, 09 May 2010 09:31:19 +0000

Hi, I'm using the username of the peers as a way to detect status changes. However, i have some bugs and it's probably because I don't understand what exactly happens at the server level when a peer requests a new name.

What I think happens: by setting a name you request a new name to the server. The server checks if the name is already in use. Then it sends back a confirmation to you and all peers in the channel. Peers trigger "on peer changed name" and you trigger "on name changed". Is this correct?

What I'd like to know is: what happens if a user rapidly changes name? For example: quickly setting/alternating your name to "0"->"1"->"0"->"1" etc.
From testing, it appears that the peers do not see all user name changes. When I alternate the name really quickly, the peers only see 0->1, 0->1, 0->1, 0->1, 1->0 (it's random) etc.
and not 0->1, 1->0, 0->1, 1->0 etc. what I think it should do.
So what exactly is happening here? Why do the peers not see all name changes, but only a few?

(If this wasn't understandable, I can probably make an example file.)

Problem with reading text using Memory Object

dummy@example.com (Jamie McLaughlin) — Thu, 06 May 2010 16:00:53 +0000

I have a problem with reading strings using a Memory Object plugin (MMF2). Writing strings is work, but reading always give blank text. I join example, reading and writing to/from icytower14 process: http://www.speedyshare.com/files/20769484/string.mfa . Please help!

Lacewing Build 14

dummy@example.com (Jamie McLaughlin) — Mon, 03 May 2010 18:54:57 +0000

MMF2

* Lots fixed in the server
* Miscellaneous fixes and tidying in the client
* Server extension and Flash version now contained in the same ZIP
* Lacewing is now global in Flash
* Server messages are now received in Flash

C++

* Loops fixed
* Miscellaneous fixes and tidying throughout the library

Server, C++ library, extensions

Lacewing Build 13

dummy@example.com (LB) — Sun, 25 Apr 2010 16:43:43 +0000

* New protocol version, including channel masters
* Zlib added to the MMF2 extension.
* Numerous small fixes etc as usual

This is incompatible with the old server, so the public servers won't work until they update.

Aquadasoft server error

dummy@example.com (Mathias Kærlev) — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 15:51:30 +0000

I figure I should make a new topic for this.
I found another bug. Was the server updated again? Because this bug only happens on aquadasoft. This is what happens:
Whenver I leave a channel lacewing spits out the following error:
'Extended debug code 8' at 'Incorrect data was received; perhaps the server/client is using a different version?'
and it disconnects. I'm using beta#12 of course.

This could be lacewing related too: after this bug and being disconnected, upon exiting the application, the application is still running in the background.

"Is channel Host?" condition... hmm

dummy@example.com (Jamie McLaughlin) — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 21:23:47 +0000

I heard you were making this, and I think it'd be great but, how would it work? I mean, since we can be connected to more than one channel, will we have to have a condition to select a channel by name before we add the is channel host condition? Or, if it selects the channel for you when it is fired, what if you are channel host of more than one channel?

This is going to make things so much easier for me, but I want to understand how it works ahead of time.

Thanks,

Lacewing BETA #12

dummy@example.com (Villy Edberg) — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 17:22:29 +0000

Small update really - but mainly for the fixed ICMP ping.

[Extension] The selected channel at the beginning of a channel peer loop is now reselected each time the condition is fired
[Extension] ICMP ping doesn't freeze any more

[DLL] Lacewing::Server now sends "name already taken" instead of "no reason given" as the deny reason if you try to join a channel in which your name is already taken. Also affects the server.
[DLL] Lacewing::SocketServer and dependent classes (Lacewing::Server, Lacewing::Webserver, Lacewing::FlashPlayerPolicy) have slightly lower memory usage

Lacewing BETA #11

dummy@example.com (Mathias Kærlev) — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 17:02:39 +0000

The C++ library now includes Lacewing::FlashPlayerPolicy, and that's implemented in the server, too. If there's a FlashPlayerPolicy.xml present, it will serve it. A policy is required to connect across domains using the Lacewing Flash beta.

A few things tweaked/fixed in the extension, and Lacewing::Webserver now has cache support (including automatic HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1 date parsing..)

Line Surface Object....HWA Compatibility?

dummy@example.com (Lukas Meller) — Sun, 14 Mar 2010 20:12:34 +0000

Hey! I was just playing around with the Line Surface Object and there are so many awesome uses for it. I was wondering if it was going to be compatible with MMF 2, Hardware Acceleration Version?

I can't see any lines when i use the HWA version.

Thanks so much!
