What about network mode ? is a dedicated server realist ?

[Adgenodux]

Hi all,

After some weeks of training, i'm looking for online games but nothing nowhere, no server list, no ip and unforthunately, when i try to set an hosted party, SD crashes... he don't like to be manipulated in this way... at all

As i've not found any infos about external parties, i have not tested to connect to an ip so i don't know if it works or not...

Can you tell some words about the network dev progress because i see nothing into the wiki ?

Is it realist to talk about a dedicated server ?

Thx for answer...

SD is a long way from supporting a reliable networking race node, which only became testable very recently. I was working on it but I'm switching my attention to frame rate issues, which are a bigger problem for me.

SD needs more programmers!

Hi and thx for answer.

It's very much work, i know and i congratulate for the actual result...

Ressources are often missing in this kind of project...

Don't you think it could be a way to create non profit org and use a crowdfunding plateform to finance dev ?

Perhaps maitaining the facebook page, timeline and wiki could help to find contributors but time is missing... i know

Network and online parties are the way to gather people around a game.

I've started a tournament web site using Trackmania Nations (GameContest.net - only French version, time is also missing for me :/ ) and i'm searching other games to introduce, so i've found SD that i'm testing to evaluate possibilities to use it to organize online tournaments, that's why i'm realy interessted by the network progress but i can understand your difficulties...

I m looking how i could help, following my knolwedges and time so i'm reading the wiki but i'm not developper so it's not so easy to follow and to understand...

Keep going guys, you made a fantastic work...
