Concurrent Versions System

Feb 17, 2004 13:44

I've been trying to get get some stuff off of source forge. Sourge forge is a site that is a big CVS repository. CVS manages files, such that everybody working on a project knows what the latest version of each file is. It will also merge text files to a certain extent.

The project I am trying to get off of source forge is UOX (Ultima Offline eXperiment). I want to check out their networking code to see how it is done for an MMORPG. I have been reading through their Hackers' Guide, and it is pretty interesting. However, it only discusses packet structures, and does not discuss their packet xmission methods. Namely I am concerned wether they use TCP/IP or UDP. If the use UDP I image they implementend some form of RUDP (Reliable UDP). I have several theories on how I would implement this myself, but it is better to learn from the mistakes of others than my own.

Love & Peace! =D
