lol

Good luck :)

Good Luck :D

If your thinking about releasing it may i suggest just releasing a base version so people have to add stuff on there own just a thought good luck tho :P

FYI xml is not good if you wish to use it like ini. However if you want to use it like nhibernate it's awesome, but a xml database alone wouldn't be very efficient.

So many steps backwards in one source, remarkable really o.O

Looks like its time to have some PvP servers again :P
Goodluck with it.

So I hear xml>ini using nhibernate, but either way, I will probably end up upgrading to MySQL if I decide to make it a server.

@Whoever asked; I will not be releasing a base.

Good luck with that :]

No, you database options are very poor, and also your not splitting the Auth and Game servers for no valid reason.

My database options are poor in your opinion, ini/binary isnt that bad of a mix.

Yes MsSQL are MySQL are better options,

With all due respect, I am not splitting with the only reason as: Personal preference.

It's not work to split it and gives a better structure over your codes.

So john i guess i got to ya huh?

afaik your auth and gameserver arent split, so shh.

And I said, I prefer to have it this way, so I'm keeping it like this.

@Hunterman: haha, yeah. ;D

--Update--
So ive been coding for a long time today, got a huge headache and about to take another break and play acidco for an hour or two as soon as I finish entitys.

DMaps are done and loaded, I can load the entire server(including 170 maps in 0.548ms, though theres no portals, npcs and stuff yet.)

Entity class is almost finished, reading/writing to the character database is done, Values update on change so thats that, Got all the enums in, 17 different enums to be exact.

Packetsplitting and being able to handle packets is done.

Just need to finish the entity class as I said, and finish up the login sequence then do screenings and npcs and i've reached my 2 day goal.

After that I plan on doing Jumping, walking, chat, simple things and then complete Items(Inventory and equipment) + saving/loading those in binary.

^All that I hope to have done by Friday.

Will update main post with my finished progress before I goto bed, (Still going to be working on this for another 4 hours or so)

Personal preference resulting in poor performance and security flaws makes your choices poor, sorry that's just a fact - it has nothing to do with my opinion.
