Net-7 Local Service To Provide EnB Client Its Perfect Network

[blhughesZ4]

Don't fix it, fool it.

 

If the EnB client can be pointed to a LOCALHOST UDP port then can't you create a NET-7 local service program to provide the client every packet it expects to see in the proper order at the proper time???

 

The new service program could communicate with the emu server with all the network protocols needed, TCP, UPD, even encrypt the logon password. The emu server could pass back extra information for proper packet reordering. The local service could ask for a re-transmittal of packets without ever sending partial information to the game.

 

The EnB client would go on partying like it was 2002. It might never lock up again, especially during the pesky gating process.

 

The local service could examine command line prompts, interact with the emu server and act according where possible.

The player base will not do this.....great idea but poor execution 

[blhughesZ4]

oops, I should have looked a little further.

 

If you open your tray with the game up and running you'll see "Net7Proxy"

 

Right click it and choose about

 

Net7Proxy V2.41

----------------------

Proxy for comms between Net7 Server and client.

Also performs some packet optimisation (spelling error hehe)

 

So what I was suggesting has already been put in place.

 

By the way, just so you'll know, the tray icon can be used to shutdown a locked client in one click without having to use task manager which takes quite a few clicks.
