Title: Next Version of the Client
Post by: Ry60003333 on May 07, 2008, 05:25:21 PM
As many of you know, the WorldScape Client has some problems when loading, mainly the abyte0 nulled error. So, I've gotten a newer release of the refactored client from one of the moderators at MoparScape. So, I'm re-writing the client with that client as the base. I'm probably making a few changes also.

Instead of downloading all the files from websites, the actual game worlds may send needed files to a loading client, like real RuneScape's update servers. However I may still have the cache download from the website, to prevent lagging the worlds too much.

So far, I've gotten a basic connection from the client and I'm moving on to grabbing the files.

Were also thinking of making the client only run on the web, like the real RuneScape client. This would allow us to ensure that everyone is using the latest version of the client, and we could easily add new features and fix bugs this way.

So, what do you think?

Great Idea, (the Online-Client Deal)

And, I've came across another Null besides the Abyte0Null or w\e.

It has something to do with:

Error odd xnull

Or something like that, it's only happened like once every 20 client loads, but it's rather annyoing  :-\

The download client is fine as long as people do the update thing every once in a while though right?

Well you need the latest version, and the webclient forces you to use the latest version. We can't announce every small update we do. So I'll probably add an outdated client message on the login screen for the new client, so if we offer a downloadable version, outdated versions wouldn't be allowed to connect.  :o

Hah! It is looking good! ;D
I also think the online server deal is a great idea.
Why make things harder on yourself by having to update multiple connections instead of one grand server?
Glad to see how things are going!

Yeah, I like the idea of a Web Client (even though thats what I use most of the time :D).


The Downloadable Client would be harder for everyone to manage :-\.  Downloading and Re-Downloading gets old fast (I still have the origional Downloadable Client :o)

yes i like the web client idea too

because people that does not have experience dealing whit this kind of stuff wont have to do anything whit
the client.
they will just go to the page and let it run. they wont have to update or anything so that will make it easy for
everyone on the server.and they will have all the cool features of the server :o
;D

Hmm, A lot of people like the Webclient idea though, although some people cannot access the forums :-\.

I know what this week's poll will be!  :D.

Why not?  ???

Its just a website.  :-\
Plus the forum accounts are the in game accounts, so that would be a problem. ;)

QuoteWhy not? 

Well, some broadband users using the same connection as me (and others from different connections, maybe,) Have trouble accessing some websites.

Like, on certain days, or long periods of time, I cannot access the local Job website or the local Bank website.

Hey, great idea. But you took all that time making the client downloadable to remove it? hmm, I don't know Ry. I would make sure EVERYONE is able to use the webclient before you start doing that. Just an idea. But, i'm sure there will be no problems because your the greatest coder I know.  :P I love everyone on Worldscape and ALL of the staff.

Great job you guys.  :P

Remember: Worldscape Blitz is the Greatest Private Server.EVER.

Ryan, it would be great if every now and then you could keep up updated of where exactlly the server is and what you have changed or have done. Your doing a fantastic job, however. Keep up the awesome work bud.  ::)

Thank you:
Ryan, Jeremy, Mod Elias, Mod Katie, Mod Wayne, Mod James, (anyone other AllGoFree Staff I forgot.) Beta-Testers, Player Moderators, Forum Moderators, and Everyone else really trying to make this server the best out there.

Thanks a lot everyone,

Zelda.

were do i download the new version of client?
Title: Re: Next Version of the Client
Post by: Zeldagirl on July 26, 2008, 07:59:47 AM
You do not need to download a new client every time the server is updated. Simply go into the file where the client is, click update client, and wait for it to tell you that it is done and you can press any key to continue. MAKE SURE NOT TO [X] OUT OF THE UPDATING CLIENT AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT UNTIL IT IS DONE, OTHERWISE IT WILL MESS UP THE CLIENT AND YOU WILL HAVE TO RE-DOWNLOAD IT. I hope that answered your question.

If you have any other questions, please, feel free to ask them. Thank you,

Zelda.
