iv been trying to get a server running i did everything the tutorial said but when i load the client it says no server WTF is going on????

 

[Jonny]

I have the server set up and everything runs perfectly but I don't have the battle system for it. It wasn't in the demo and when I tried re-downloading the demo it still wasn't there. Does anybody know where I can get it?

 

[ScottFalco]

I think someone should create a step by step guide for EVERYTHING,
not just one thing like setting up the server

Hiya.

I finally managed to set up Netplay+ into my game, and as far as I know it is working fine. But I have some questions:

- What is unfinished here?
People keep saying that Netplay+ is not finished, and broken. What is broken, what is unfinished, what needs to be done??

-Beta...
I have two versions on my PC. I have the one downloaded from this thread, which is very basic and stripped down. And then I have the Beta (from when there was a big Beta test of Netplay+ that anyone could play but not use - eventually you released it for download but now it's gone along with the site). Am I allowed to use this Beta, and if so, is there anything I should know about it (i.e. what is unfinished, what doesn't work, etc)?

The Beta certainly is a lot more appealing. It has guilds, trade, chat, player versus player (probably doesn't work though), global events, global everything...

the ugly battlesystem dosent work i HATE IT does anyone know how to use the old battlesystem? :s

 

[Ellie]

...
And for Icechamp's question, here's the solution. You may have to scroll a bit, depending on how you're web browser is. Anyway, there's the problem you're having. That 0 as shown in red here, should be a 1 for it to automatically validate the registrants. You'll have to manually validate those users already registered by changing that 0 to a 1 in the database in the users table.

if ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) && ($_POST["MM_insert"] == "form1")) {
  $insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO users (id, login, password, email, reg_dat, validation) VALUES ('', %s, MD5(%s), %s, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(), [color=red]0[/color]);",
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['login'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['password'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['email'], "text"));

Well, I hope that I helped most of you guys and cleared up a few questions as well.

Hi, anyone know what file this coding is in?

 

[sytes]

Wyatt Go to the folder WWW and in index.php

**
Why aint the map working and the battlesystem...

 

[sytes]

Use this index.php if you dont want to lose the 'USERS'

<?php require_once('Connections/Netplay.php'); ?>
<?php
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")

  $theValue = (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? addslashes($theValue) : $theValue;

  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;    
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":

Cheers dude.

Urgh.

The server is fully working, nd the game seems to work, unless the server is running, where it just crashes and says "script is hanging". The server works, the game works. So why not both at the same time?

The error log tells me this:

ON <Mon 12 Nov 2007, 12:30:34> the error: <<() (#<Scene_Login:0x3bdb758>)>> occured.

The error message is this:

Script is Hanging

The database is running with the sql file and everything. The server is online, the correct port is open. The IP address in use is 127.0.0.1. The gamecode is correct. The server shows up as online during the login scene, but nothing moves (not even the mouse cursor) and then it closes after... 5 seconds? bringing the error message.

The server looks like this during this time:

'I had that problem before i had the old netplay server online ...'

*NOW CAN SOMONE help me how to fix the god damn Maps?!*

 

[gameline]

some one can tell me how to set up the register page
plz

 

[Kabuto202]

GOD DAMN IT!!!
Can some one please give me a step by step guide on how to set up the bloody server!?

 

[Ellie]

Shouting wont make it happen any quicker. :p

 

[Kabuto202]

maybe, maybe not

 

[Ellie]

I'm seriously thinking of switching back to 1.x.

2.x has so many bugd and errors. Knowing RGSS doesn't help at all, to fix them you need to have been the one to make it, as the comments and wording and everything is unique to the scripter.

Anything in 2.0 that isn't in 1.x?

(Hah! I've been trying over a year (literally) to set up Netplay+ 2.0, and yet I just set up Netplay+ 1.6.3 in the space it took to post then edit this message. Plus it's faster and less laggy.

But then of course... my server is Linux, and C++ wont run on Linux, unless I use Wine...)

 

[kozmonaut]

Has anyone ever got the ruby server to work on with the orginal netplay code? I like the new server, althought it eats up alot of cpu processing power, but i like the idea of storing user files in a mysql database to prevent alot of shadyness. Has anyone tried, or is it possible by copying some of the new protocals to my existing project to phase out suicides netplay server and run a older version of the netplay code with the new server (ruby)?

 

[Ellie]

Just in case it helps anyone:

Wyatt's Guide to Setting Up Netplay+ 1.6.3

1. Download the package 1.6.3 to your PC.

Location: top of this thread

2. This can be helpful... Download the latest SDK. Copy and paste this below the existing SDK, and delete the existing one. Find all the lines that say SDK.state, SDK.log, etc and change them accordingly.

Location: http://www.rmxp.org/forums/showthread.php?t=1802

3. If you are starting anew, use this as your project and skip to 6. If you are continuing an existing project, go to 4.

4. Open your game and the new project at the same time. Copy and paste each script of your game one by one into the new game, below the Netplay+ scripts.

5. Open your game's folder, and go to Data. Move "Scripts" to the side, and highlight everything else. Copy this, and go to the Netplay+ project. Paste them into the Data folder.

6. Copy your "Graphics" and "Audio" folders from your project into the Netplay+ Projects.

For 5 and 6 when it says "do you want to replace" click "yes to all".

7. Go to "User Edits". Find where it says:
"Mr.Mo Home Server"
Delete this whole line. This will cause a shizload of errors, and is the main cause of all the problems, I found out. Delete the comma ( , ) at the end of the line above it too.

8. Download the new server. (0.8.4)

9. Change the port to a number you can remember, also change this in the User Edits. 50,000 is good to start off with, but dangerous because we all know you have 50,000 open then .

10. Click Netplay > Start.

11. In the server, go to security. Type in username "test", password "test", and group "admin".

12. Open the game client, and play. Login with test/test, and see if it works.

There ya go, Netplay+ 1.6.3 in 12 steps.
