an immersive internet game with love?

[stefff285]

ok

hello all. i'm asking you advices about a video game, a huge one i would like to dev during two years
the goal is private actually but in some lines here is the amount of things i would like to devellop

- mysql acces to a dedicated server for sprites collisions (avatars), private chat talking, teleportation
an all that is necessary for an immersive vidéo game.
- tile maps to be change by me, taken as new datas for the client software and mysql base
- private chat and public chat
- collection of parts of sprites to get their own private sprite after, perhaps in fact done
all the possibilities by hollywood little software before
- streaming vidéo and sound (mp3) for conférences in the game from the dedicated server
- map scroll when the main sprite move

i know hollywood is able to do most of them but my doubt is about the streaming ones ?

of course going to be compiled on all platforms except android even if the native compilation would be released one
day ?

thanx for ready

regards

I believe it is posible to do at least some sort of streaming with hollywood, but I dont actually even know how those normal streamings work.

What I am thinking is that you screengrab the picture one way or other, and then you send it to server, from which each client downloads it. Repeat this as fast as possible, and you would have some sort of streaming.

And dont underestimate the chat part. It is not otherwise so hard necessarily, but since Hollywood has no other but MUI support for text things, it will be quite a lot of work just to make a box into which when you click, you can start writing a message, especially if you need to be able to delete your typing, move to middle of typed text etc. As far as I know, there is no such support other than MUI in holylwood, and MUI is Amiga only.

that is a good point ! why not trying to dev a p2p chat client whith own amiga (old school, ng as os4, morphos or aros) protocol or
inspireds by google chat or else ? some russians have their own protocol, as chinese have. why not amiga own protocol ?
going to test about it and ask to polymere about its polychat under msn old chat system

going to see
