A Multiplayer Online Game Test App: myMMOG
This is another test application, done with DXStudio. This time, focusing on using the network and physics capabilities.
The program will connect to this server and place you in a rather large (yet boring) game world. You can see other players walking around (if any online) and send messages via the basic chat message. The landscape is dynamically created and updated, depending on the player's position. All objects have physics and dynamic shadowing switched to on.
Tip: When feeling lonely, just start two clients and talk to yourself. ;-P
Fixed resolution for myMMOG is 1024x768. It will run in windowed mode only. MS Windows only (tested on XP).
Features
- 51x51=2601 terrain tiles, being managed dynamically by player's position
- a roughly calculated "world size" of 4km x 4km, based on avatar size
- over 36k of test objects, dynamically managed and linked to the terrain tiles
- very basic "walking animation"
Here is a short and ugly video of the program in action: myMMOG.wmv
Installation
Download the file below (it comes with the dxstudio player installation files, too). Start the game by double-clicking the downloaded exe file.
Any feedback is welcome. Please report bugs of this version 0.2 (the debug info has been left switched on).
Thank you.
