This is going surprisingly well.

OpenYS? Interesting.

This is working way too well. Something has to break soon.

Fully loading YSFlight Scenery into the server now - all ground objects loaded as well as start positions. That's all we need for now!

The Government will collect and analyse that metadata if you're not careful.

I actually just access ASIO's servers to get all the data on my pc. It's just easier.

Already receiving connections on it's own. There is no packet logic yet though - that's what will make the server work.

But, hold your butts, because that is the LAST STEP in the program. I did not expect this to go so quickly.

What you see here is the server receiving packets, using a generic packet framework (rather then the mess I had in Orb) to build a packet quickly from raw data, that all future special packets will share in common. The first line of trash is the log on packet a client sends, the other ones below it are heartbeats.

So, I now need to write up handlers for packets and I'm done.

Back to work on this one,the Sbach. Now it has propeller animations as well as a cockpit which will soon be high detailed as well as the rest of the plane!

Brah I'm working on an open source YSFlight Stand-alone server brah.

It's hard work brah.

Brah.

The things you can do in 45 minuets

Now for the animations and then a tidy up, lights, and release!

Would this get rid of distance lag? or at least minimize it? Nice work though.

Ah, can't wait to fly those Tie Fighters! and those X-Wings!

One could hope [it eliminates or decreases distance lag]. Flake did some work for us earlier last year trying to change the UDP/TCP protocol. Unfortunately, it did nothing.

Just a couple more hi-def ground objects.

Those are sweet my friend.

Busy as hell. haha

I actually made the coal car during summer break and the engines I modified from my CSX GEVO model. Didn't take long.

VNAF ONE · Post by **VNAF ONE** » Fri Jan 09, 2015 3:34 am

Well I will say that's some pretty good detail for a ground object

Are those F40Ps or a variation of the F40 model?

Open source server can handle logins now.

Still need to handle: Chat messages, Join Requests, Entity Joined, Entity Leaves.

Hopefully that's done tomorrow. Then the server will be completely bare bones.

I'm pretty sure I don't need to do aircraft performance packets to get it to work at a barebones level but if I do that could take a few days.

Login is incredibly fast: <1sec for OpenYS vs 8sec for Vanilla YSFlight.

The "unknown packet" is actually just a keep alive signal that i'm ignoring for now. relax...

OPEN YS INITIAL TEST

http://www.mediafire.com/download/c78tk ... OpenYS.zip

It can't really do anything but log you in so far. you won't be able to join flight or chat but you should be able to go observer an look around the scenery. No ground objects added yet. It's really, really basic. Give it a go and see how easy it is to run and how much faster login time is for yourself.
