Differences Between MMO And Ineisis?
Hi there!
I've been learning C++ for a couple months now, so I'm definitely a beginner.
(However, been doing 3d art for years now grin )
I'm planning on making a multiplayer game in Esenthel, and while I can do really simple things with C++ currently, I'm a little lost with setting up Client/server interactions.

Which source code (MMO and Ineisis) would be a better base for a MMO?
What are the differences?

The descriptions for both are a little vague on what they include, so a little better description would be helpful smile

Thanks
Jon

RE: Differences Between MMO And Ineisis?
I don't know for Ineisis but MMO include basic stuff really helpfull :
-Create a character with basic stuff that other player connected to server can see (synchronized animation).
-Some client / server message and the basic infrastructure for it.
-Inventory network example...

And other things. Really a must have for starting multiplayer games (if you do'nt have the basic Ideas) and a good sand box to learn.

I assume Ineisis is the 2.0 tutorial including advanced stuff : teleportation, spell casting, dynamic world streaming and editing... Do not have it but it's a minecraft -like.

I assume it's also a good learning tool (more advanced) but personnaly I did not took it because it covered much ground than I need (and I like to know exactly what I'm doing so I prefer starting on a much simpler base grin).

So, depdending on what you want, I think you should either take Ineisis or MMO (I think Ineisis cover MMO, but can't be sure grin), and anyway I strongly recommend you to take one of them wink

Alright, sounds like the MMO source would be best to build off of in my case..
Thanks!

The MMO source code tutorial is just 1 world.
I wonder if the Ineisis source code has more than 1 world and if it has a seamless transition between worlds?
I also wonder what the advantage is of having a seperate app for the launcher in ineisis unlike the MMO source code where the launcher is the same app as the game client?

Having the launcher allows to download all the game data files including the game client and start it.

Once you extract the Esenthel mmo package, it has to applications, server and client. Just start the server first, then the client. Let us know if you need more help.
