Speed improvements in last version i think is caching being names, levels and some other parameters. Client not send every time 0x0094 message if being already was saw.
In 1.0.3.21 i not remember, need look to commits log.

Personal shops working over whisper messages to exchage info.
I think is good add this feature to main line client, but now manaserv on test server not support invetory and as result i can only test this code for eAthena.
Code is bit complex, may be not all devs like as i doing this

Hi,

Hi! (At last someone being polite, even on forums )

Speed improvements in last version i think is caching being names, levels and some other parameters. Client not send every time 0x0094 message if being already was saw.

I can't find such message in src/net/ea/protocol.h for mainline and I can't put my hand back to the protocol in the eAthena svn. What does this message 0x0094 do, already?

Indeed, code specially made for tEathena should be carefully enclosed with such kind of code:

Code: Select all

if (Net::getNetworkType() == ServerInfo::EATHENA)
{
...
}
else if (Net::getNetworkType() == ServerInfo::MANASERV) // <-- !
...

but I'm not teaching you something new
Inventory in ManaServ is working for self inventory. Trading is also 95% functional (Canceling trading is currently well handled for the server, but not by the client.). The ManaServ Testing server is unfortunately not a big help as it is very slow most of the time.
So if you can enclose the shop code to be enabled only for eAthena for now, I'll be your reviewer.
ManaServ already has premises of an auction system, still to be reviewed and finished.

Oh, I'm planning to rename the EATHENA value to TMWATHENA. The true EATHENA protocol is planned to be supported, for the current features only in a first time.

If i create patches for this features they will be added to main line?

If you can separate your patches for AFK and speed improvements, I'll gladly review them, with the help of any other mana developer. If they're ok, I can't why they shouldn't go in, for eathena, at least.
As for ManaServ, I'll try to bring the same features, but handled more by the server if possible. An afk mode for ManaServ is rather easily feasible, I'd say.

Regards.

It's unnamed packet, for example you can find it here src/net/ea/beinghandler.cpp:91

Afk may work in client side only for both server, but now i have code only for eathena.

Ok I will try extract this features in separate patches.

...caching being names.... Client not send every time 0x0094 message if being already was saw.

I'm a little worried about that one. Since players are identified by account number, it's impossible to tell two characters on the same account apart, save for the name packet. So, if you see one character from the account and later see another from the account, will the second one be given the first one's name?

Yes, it's small disadvantage of this. Current cache size is 50 beings.

I made new type of theme called "Wood". New backgrounds and some sprites from old one.

Also: How can I pos <filename>.zip?

Unreadable -> unusable.

A GUI should not be primarily an attempt to be an art statement (or a revisioning of the 60's). It should be simple and practical. If you can also make it pretty when accomplishing this, all the better.

Yes text may be unredable. And wood theme already exists, need new name.

[Dark_Mag]

Iced Blue Theme. I remade everything in its type.

[Rotonen]

Tiling issues. But the approach is better. Why the gradient?

[4144]

New patch version.

[4144]
