EEServ3 - A new(ish) beginning~!

XxAtillaxX · Before February 2015

Hello!
This topic is dedicated to EEServ and later revisions of the software.

Basically, to sum this up:

EEServ3 is an open-source program that will allow people to create their own servers, the same way PlayerIO does - but without any limitations.

Currently it is in heavy development, for which I am always welcome to recruit anyone that is willing to help (and has proper coding experience, of course!)

[& revised/fixed, + added, - removed, % progressing]
Progress:

+ Interacting with WebServer, getting crossdomain.xml (port 80) + EEServ Listener (port 8184) + EEServ Listerner (port 80) & PlayerIO SWF API (spoofing) % Requesting Flash Bridge & Fixing ioError/secError

Suggestions/Comments/Questions are always appreciated, you can post them here or contact me personally.

Yay you're making new version!
Can't wait for publish

Krock · Before February 2015

We talked together but I also want say you here:
I hope it will work and maybe I can help you, after I learned how it is built.
I'm curious

Lol your name is Toshiba[/OFFTOPIC]

Sounds amazing! You're amazing!
Hope that it will work better than the previously server and honestly can't wait until the launching!

Alright, I will be starting to work on this again.
Forget the old binary, I'm going to be coding this from scratch.

So, now that I can begin progress on this, I'm going to get the basic functionality done - please reply to this topic if you are interested in working with me.

This isn't a server, it is server software.

To be clear, Blocking Blocks uses PlayerIO, the same thing I used when I created EEServ.
They use PlayerIO (and pays them) to host their server. There is even limitations in the GameLibrary itself.

However, with EEServ3 there will be no limitations, and no price.

Blocking Blocks uses PlayerIO (and pays them) to host their server, they have lots of limitations.

So your creating a private server for a game similar to EE that means you don't have to pay and no limitations?

It's just server software, which will allow private servers to be created.
Due to it being open-source, there will be no limitations within the server.

I like this.

yNeee · Before February 2015

If it is just a server software,

--is the Game-ID of EE is the same in whatever you called EEserv3?

--If it is open-source make it like Noob-Friendly. Not like
public whateveristhis
{
int ljksdf22341;
wtfthevariables.Serial[or whatever thingy]

}

--I can't even understand because PlayerIO holds the playerDatas that makes like a server.
Then you can just make a server software without using PlayerIO?
TL;DR:

I like this one.

Pugmatt · Before February 2015

Sounds interesting. PlayerIO is limited, and would be nice to host private servers. Kind of like Minecraft or Terraria. Can't wait to see more.

People will be able to set their GameID and whatnot to whatever they wish.
I'm not planning to make some kind of big station to manage this, I don't want to take responsibility for any downtime.

It will be as user-friendly as possible. The uglier code will be hidden in the internal folders.

This server software won't require PlayerIO at all to function, thus the server will handle everything itself, from receiving messages, to sending them.

Thanks for all the commentary, everyone!

Krock · Before February 2015

Wow - I'm interested:
Can everyone download the server program or do we have to pay you, Atilla, for the work?

I'm looking forward to this because paying is really crappy and it would be rally cool to get rid of it.
If you got some troubles with the serializing of worlddata, then I could celp you because there I already learned alot by creating Blocking Blocks.

It will be completely free and open-source.
The only thing you will have to account for is the client itself, because that's the only illegality derived from server emulation.

The only issue I am having at the moment is spoofing client, it seems to return a Security Error or ioError.
I'm not completely sure why, but it might be due to a few SWF files (ss/ssx)...

And... you said something about help being useful..
I'd love to help, but I'm probably not qualified at all.

So, looking forward to the finished product.

Whilst the forums were down, yes.
I'm discontinuing it until further notice. If people want to try it themselves, I'd be willing to offer support. (that is, if they understand what they are doing, I haven't the time to explain a billion things.)

When not you can solve this, then can't do this another person on the EE forum.

I would but sadly isn't there anything don't can more has like. I can't understand your capashian language.
I have solved (mostly) the errors listed, but there is only a problem with receiving the API, for some reason.
I think it might have to do with localhost crud.

If anyone wants to know about how PlayerIO works, I'm open to questions.
If someone wants to make a team for this, I'll offer support.

hummerz5 · Before February 2015

I think he's complimenting you and saying that if you can't solve the problem, no one from the forums can.

That darn language barrier.

I see. Overall it isn't too complicated, all that is needed is to spoof the called API, and host one server monitoring HTTP requests and responses, and another handling a server socket.

When/if the client successfully accepts the crossdomain and sends requests to the API, the API can respond back with connection data, the client would accept it and attempt a connection.

Fiddle around with the roomtypes and such, and establish a full connection, afterwards
all that is required is receiving bytes, and adding handlers for it.

Turning bytes/hex into messages and back is already possible and the source code for it is included in EEDecode.

hummerz5 · Before February 2015

I was going to ask why would you go to such lengths to create this.

Then I reread the opening post.

What "limitations" does playerIO have?
(Just to name a few)
