Considering with the right setup Sql can achieve 1 billion reads per minute i cant see how you could possibly argue that Flatfile is better for performance. Perhaps in the short term with very few entries yes, but in the long term with hundreds of thousands of entries definitely not.

Sorry I haven't replied yet. Firstly, good luck with your project. If it fails, don't sweat it. You'll learn a lot from it. Secondly, I take a stand with Jack. I don't use Sql just because it's my preference. I use it because it's built to manage large stale database projects and servers. It took me a while to understand why at first too, but until you do, just take our word for it. Also, remember that database test I did? It's not right. I tested each database system on initialization and on the first few sql commands (each command being executed over 30 seconds apart). Sql out-performs ini! Good luck (again).

^:) It probably does perform *INI* but thats not the only flatfile database is ist now? :)

Small update: Was chilling most of yesterday and taking abit of a break, so I only got Items, Inventory and equipment done, Still got saving+loading todo, and one small bug in equipment(showing to others) to fix.

like ive said, im going from past expierence, not getting into technical setups or properly configured shit, flat file did well for me, and in my expierence i find it better than mysql for performance. im not saying its a global fact lol.

Thx

I have not given up on the project!(or stopped!!)

So, I got bored coding inside my source so I decided to explore anticheats, I worked it out I spent over 25 hours attempting to start it off, failed(wasnt my fault it turns outs) so superman came to my rescue(Ultimation) so now, its well under way, Will continue work on source once anticheat is complete, however I did completely finish equipment and inventory saving!, Oh and I fixed that bug.

I would like to repeat, This server will not be public unless I find some real thrive of players wanting another PVP server, specially not while AcidCO is around anyway(Why would I run a PVP server, while the greatest of all time is still around? + I play it ;D)

Thats it for now, AntiCheat ETA: Sunday.

PS: Ulti, your da baws.

Ran into a few peoblems, I stopped work for some time.

Starting work again.

Anticheat ETA: few days.

AcidCO is closed, I can consider opening the server to public should there be a demand, would you guys like to see this server open for everyone or no?

Just don't expect a lot of players.

I don't want to be negative, but I support a ban as well. It's just constant spam.

oh man. i learned so much from creating this source 5 years ago haha it was almost like a big stepping stone, despite half of the comments on the thread i think it was fundamental into becoming the programmer i once was

oh how time flies. (also -- how and why was this thread bumped? lol)
