Pretty cool submission - seems it only
needs minor tweaks (like updating score
at the end of a round instead of the
beginning of a new one). Missing a
function to call to ("ClientJoinedOK")
in the function "actionOK" - commented
it out. Easily worthy of five planets.
|
10/10/2002 3:08:38 PM:J. Sperlhofer
"ClientJoinedOK" - eek - damit, i just
deleteted it bevor uploading - was an
empty function. Thanks, gonna update it
now.

You Could Do The Entire Gui In Flash
And Use The Fscommand To Allow Them To
Communicate. Thats What I Do In My
Flash Gui Programs :)

I could to it, right - but i didn't

my word :>

Hey, This application doesnot work in a
standalone machine having TCP/IP even
After running it as a Client. I ran
Three Instances of the application .
First one as server.
2nd one as 1st
Client.
3rd one tried as 2nd Client.
But it says 'THERE IS NO SERVER RUNNING
OR ANOTHER WINSOCK-ERROR
OCCURED.
CONNECTION IS FORCEFULLY
REJECTED'.
-?????????????
|
10/11/2002 8:35:01 AM:J. Sperlhofer
calm down .. why did you start 2
clients? Its just a 2-player game ^^.
And it runs on one machine, belive me.
btw: Ever tried to open 3 ports with
just 1 Winsock-Control? hehe .. so "or
a Winsock-Error occured" is more than
the right answer :>

Nice job, 5 from me!
Make more games
like this :)
|
10/11/2002 9:12:15 AM:J. Sperlhofer

With VB5, I'm getting an error on a
couple of things. ...Round(...)
and
...Trim(Replace(...) -- it says:
Sub or Function not defined.
Maybe
this doesn't work with VB5.0?
|
10/11/2002 10:32:03 AM:
Ok,THIS application for two players
only. Actually, I went according to the
title "Winsock Multiplayer ....".
Ho
ho ho..
Any way , I know that client
Sockets are one-to-one.
|
10/11/2002 11:02:19 AM:J. Sperlhofer
@Max Seim: Oh, sorry - i've corrected
it, sorry for the
confusion.

|
10/12/2002 1:01:02 PM:Paul Mather
You can play as 2 players on 1 PC if
you use a different "Player Name" on
the client and server. 5 globes!!
Nice job!

10/12/2002 2:13:10 PM:Ninnghizidha

HI man ive been doing flash for about
two years and never had the idea of
controlling flash through vb absolutley
amazing im going to try some stuff now
:) thumbs up and ten stars heheh

10/22/2002 2:15:44 AM:Emperor Frollard
one possible problem I found, played
locally...havent tried internet yet,
anyhoo, played for 4 'games' (not
rounds) and after 4 wins for 'player 1'
it said 'you - 4, player 2 - 4', its a
bit confusing not knowing the diff
between rounds and full games
5 for
great idea, but I think it should also
keep track of actual 'game' wins/losses
|
10/22/2002 2:55:14 AM:Emperor Frollard
Found me a few bugs while playing for
15 mins
for an unknown reason his
action (Shoot) was displayed as debug
in the chat, and not executed it, so
neither of us had buttons to click, and
I saw
data+[ip]+playername+norotate+010000+1da
ta+[ip]+playername+10000+1 (we got
stuck).
Also, The Start New Game
button is multi-clickable if theres any
network lag, suggest to make it
disabled...I started a game 5 times
before it actually 'started'.
might
want to look into it
other than
that, excellent game
|
10/22/2002 2:55:53 AM:Emperor Frollard
oops -
make it disabled *after its
clicked*
|
10/22/2002 2:58:45 AM:Emperor Frollard
I just dont quit - it also ruins the
effect of the waiting for the animation
to play if your opponent dies or not,
because the buttons can be clicked way
faster than the animation can play, as
well, it says 'and nothing happened'
way before the animation 'clicks' to
show no shot, recommended you delay the
messages and enables of the
buttons...
once again excellent game
- just lookin out to make it excellenter
|
10/22/2002 3:30:01 AM:Emperor Frollard
BUT WAIT!!!
DEYers
MOAH!
hehehe
uh, if the client
quits, and you send a chat message from
the server afterwards, it errors you
out of the program with a 'wrong
connection state' runtime error.
|
10/22/2002 3:31:50 AM:Emperor Frollard
EGAD he just wont leave it alone
:D
it just occurred to me, if you're
'waiting for opponent', why is your
opponent sitting there in the
animation? hehehe
|
10/22/2002 5:00:23 AM:Ninnghizidha
hehe :D
Thanks for the suggestions -
i'll wark into every of it tonight and
update the game :)
woot - thanks for
the coments :)
Greetz,
Ninn :)

Cool code, great game, & a worthy
winner!
I have some questions - how
did you produce the SWF files? What
tools whould I need to create my
own?
All the best!

|
6/5/2003 9:09:35 AM:Ninnghizidha
I don't know this .dll - it has nothing
