MMO Starter Kit

Mastima, if you expect someone to hold your hand all along the development of your own project, including solving trivial issues like double login, you will have a bad time. If you can implement features from this kit just from watching the Youtube, and have time to do so, I suggest you watch a Youtube video on Steam login as it seems it is one of the features you want implemented. Do us all the favor, implement the feature and then share it with the rest of us…

Hey piepants! and everybody:) Thanks for the reply. The issue is if i use any number in Username and hit register , It will say its successful but no database entry will appear. It works just fine if i dont use any numbers. Have you guys stumbled to this before? And also i get 5 errors when i try to build it as development server solution in VS.

Hey. I’m assuming this is 4.15.1? I’ll try to install 4.15.1 tomorrow and see if I can reproduce this. All I have is 4.15.0 at the moment.

Hey there Spartan!. No this is actually 4.15.0

Woah that is weird, but at least very specific! I have a 4.14.3 server up and will test that out when I get back from work.

Ok, so regarding the first error with registration. The error is happening on the php side. I would recommend that you:

  1. check the error log to see what’s happening there
  2. if there are no errors, then add debug lines into mmo_registration.php, such as error_log(“hello”); to find the source of the problem.

Regarding the second problem, do you open the mmokit project in the ue4 engine from github or from the engine that you get through the epic games launcher?

I downloaded it from github ( the source built version) . And open it from the folder i downloaded it. I tried to build fresh copy of download as server version too but got same errors.

its usually really simple mistakes which block your way. I have yet to find mine but cant. Notice it say netseriliazation.generated.h not found. We do have netseriliazation.h but not the one with .generated . So either VS should generate netseriliazation.generated.h (and other 2 include files)and use it for building server solution but fail to generate one or im doing something wrong?. Or maybe its the version of VS i have installed which lack some features?? Ill list my VS info below. Anybody is welcome to point it out, help me move forward. Skyp Google hangouts or any kind of screen sharing capable comms software is acceptable for visually tracing my actions which lead to those errors. Just please help me out here :confused:

Update:
I was trying to build win64 development solution. When i tried win32 version got only 2 errors this time.

I still cant fix the issue :confused:

After researching a bit, my thoughts on the issue:

  • some games allow multiboxing
  • the majority of games that release nowadays use Steam. Steam automatically wouldn’t allow you to play in two windows.
  • it’s strongly related to testing. When debugging issues, you often have to log on from a few characters at the same time.

So realistically, it’s a non-issue. Besides if someone wants to multibox, they can acquire multiple accounts. And if you want to limit the amount of connections based on IP, it’s a whole another deal.

You can’t have Steam integration without having your own Steam app ID. You only get it after getting Greenlit or from your publisher. After that, you get access to a closed Steam partner website, which shows you Steam documentation which isn’t for the general public. It explains how to do Steam integration for any game, including for an MMO.

Create a new Third Person Template project, add an empty class to it. Add VaRest plugin sources to it as well. Then try to build the development editor for this project. Let’s see if it works.

Hello .
I want to buy an MMO starter kit. But on the site https://sellfy.com/p/fo6a/ pay only in dollars.
In paypal I was told that I could not pay. Can you put it on another site where you can pay in rubles and give me a link to it or bill it in rubles at https://sellfy.com/p/fo6a/?

Здравствуйте .
Я хочу купить ММО starter kit. Но на сайте https://sellfy.com/p/fo6a/ оплатить можно только в долларах.
В paypal мне сказали, что я не смогу оплатить. Можете ли вы выложить на другой сайт, где можно оплатить в рублях и дать мне ссылку на него или выставить счет в рублях на сайте https://sellfy.com/p/fo6a/ ?

Здравствуйте

I know it’s a bit off topic but does someone knows where I can rent host/dedicated servers which can handle a MMO game? My Google research leads to 90% of Minecraft server renting and 10% of website hosting with limited access to database, etc.

Hi Haoris,

you could try https://www.ovh.co.uk/ there is VPS for test of low capacity servers and powerfull servers for more ppl.

Thanks, do you know what the difference between the dedicated servers and the “virtual private servers”? VPS are shared machines?

With same ressources dedicated and VPS can do the same job.

A big dedicated server can host a lot of VM.
But with a VPS you do not have hardware problème. If the host is down the VM restart on a new host.

Hi there. Sorry for late responce . It turned out my source build had some issues (I dont know what exactly). I downloaded new copy same as before , built it same as before and it worked perfectly. :slight_smile:

Hi everyone. And now im having trouble with the launcher. When i start the launcher it starts downloading , Temp folder fills up correctly then empties out (which is normal) and Game folder is filled up with empty folders. Nameings are correct but folders are compleatly empty . No exe files nothing . Just folders inside folders. The deployer on the vps side has all the files but they are zipped (Not sure if this is how it is supposed to be). And Since launcher fails to add files including .exe launcher gives exception error (it cant locate .exe even thought path in settings is correct).

Update: Rebuilding the launcher from Source folder did not fix the issue. It still downloads folders within folders without any files. :confused:

Update2: I deleted winrar and installed 7-zip both on server and my pc to force 7-zip as default archive but the problem still the same

Question / idea : Root folder and including folders have read only attribute selected. Can it be the reason i wonder… But when i deselect read only attribute and click ok it still becomes read only

I’m using 4.15.2 and having some issues trying to get this to load into the editor, which asks me to rebuild, then stops and spouts: “CleanThirdPerson could not be compiled. Try rebuilding from source manually.
Where do I go from here?

EDIT: Nevermind. Installed VS2015 and now it is loading.
