Orxonox

Reducing traffic or calling the network engine more often (higher frequency).

Sounds cool. I also like your wiki page. Just one question: will there be a FPS level?

Setsuka: the ISG prooved to be very helpful in all our installation/makefile problems. I'm sure they will be able to help you.

Good luck!

I suggest to either not use threads and use the non-blocking network functions (suggestion by chrigi) or to use a real thread library: the boost thread library (suggested by silvan). Don't think about doing it all yourselfs, it will take you all the time left in this semester to just handle threads...

Holy... I unfortunatelly don't have any old hardware anymore. I hope we don't have to buy new things, it's going to be expensive. If the graphics card is too big, we probably will need to buy a new one, because old graphics cards tend to be bigger.

Nice work guys! I agree to your ideas and comments.

There is no way to alter svn repository after a commit (because of consistancy issues. You could do that manually but you wouldn't want to

So if you forget the commit text, you can always make a second very small commit with a log msg describing the previous one.

You are totally right. I forgot a few things to add to the guide. So please, if you find something or propose something, just add it to the guide and ask people for feedback here in the forum.

Good thinkging!

Of course it is too much to create a finished well working network implementation within one semester. There is a lot of things that are needed by any network implementation, things that are very handy and important, things that may help and things that are just nice to have. Find out which of your ...

Yes, I will give a very short introduction to a possible Orxonox code style. A good, readable code style makes it much easier for people that are not familiar with your code to read and understand it. Therefore it's the second most important thing for open source projects after the Doxygen documenta...

Thanks for organizing this event! Perhaps an email to orxonox-dev at mail.datacore.ch would get even more subscribers

Very cool. Do you have some priorities assigned to the effects (making all will be hard). Looking forward to see some nice effects

Great! I think you asked the right questions. Your implementation is very close to what we did the last time. You may take a look at the synchronizeable.(h, cc) files. Another questions of great importance: how do you identify objects to synchronize within the network. E.g. how do you know that one ...

Game heroes are neat, star names also (e.g. small stars with a small magnitude up to Sirius with a very high magnitude). I also like the suggestion of spaceship names like Sputnik (my favorite: russian names of course). Don't forget that some of the names used in certain series and games may have co...

Hi Dorian & Beni, I like the systematic approach to your xml interface implementation. For your information: The old Orxonox Implementation used tinyXML too. But decide yourself which of the libraries you mentioned is best suited. Idealistically at the end the programmer doesn't actually see the the...
