Hello Everybody, I'm new around here and I have some question, if someone could help me it'll be very useful.

And sorry if I did questions that are already asked and sorry, my english is not pretty good

1.- ¿Do I need have my game already complete to host it?
2.- ¿How can I host my game? I saw tutorials but I can't host it because I think I need my game complete
3.- ¿Can someone explain me the things of the scripts? I mean, ¿whats dim? ¿whats mean if? ¿whats mean sub? those things I don't get it

Right now, those are the question I need to clear, I hope someone can help me.

Thanks for your attention

Hi, from the look of your question structure, may I ask if you speak Spanish?  We do have a Spanish section, which you may find some tutorials easier-understood.

1.- ¿Do I need have my game already complete to host it?

You can host your game whenever you want, it doesn't need to be completed; actually, when you have the game running on your computer, you are hosting it, but only for yourself.

2.- ¿How can I host my game? I saw tutorials but I can't host it because I think I need my game complete

To host your game for everyone else, you will need to have your server.exe running, you need to portfoward, set the ip in the clients to your computer's IP address, and give people the client to connect to your game.

3.- ¿Can someone explain me the things of the scripts? I mean, ¿whats dim? ¿whats mean if? ¿whats mean sub? those things I don't get it

There are some very good tutorials on scripting, you may be able to find one in your language (what is your native language?), if not, what language do you know? I can find a good tutorial on scripting for you.

Yeah, I speak Spanish, and I was there, but I don't find a lot of info there, about the host thing, in the page of PortFoward, I found my router there, I look for Eclipse in the page, but I can only reach this part:
http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/2wire/2701HG-T/Eclipse.htm

When I want to enter my ip as like there says, my browser don't find it (I use firefox)

What is the IP you are attempting to enter?
Go to start -> run -> cmd
Then type "ipconfig"
The default gateway if the ip you put in the firefox address.
It should come up

ÅÐмiядζ ЯĢ€

the way of "Start -> Run -> Cmd" isn't for XP? Because I use Vista.

My IP is 201.127.200.46

PainKiller

Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt

That's your public IP above. You'll need the private IP of your router. It usually starts with 192.168. You'll see it in the IPConfig info on the command prompt.

Ballie

Thanks Ballie, now I'm in the next step, but now I can't pass, it want a pass, and I dont have it =S isn't other way to host my game for others players?

Until you purchase a dedicated network and server, you could always use Hamachi.

ÅÐмiядζ ЯĢ€

Hamachi? I'll try it, I saw that link and says

Hit Next, Click Box "I Agree the agreement" , Next, Choose the Directiory where you the files come. Hit Next, Next.
Then You Choose the Box "Evaluate Hamachi Commercial. At the end of the evaluation period Hamachi will automatically revert to Non-commercial version"

I don't get it, its trial or free? o.o also, I heard this program makes a lot of lagg, its true?

It's free to an extent; refer to their license for more information in regards to that.

And yes, it will cause some lag, because everyone that wishes to play your game, will have to download Hamachi and use it to play -- it's good for developmental purposes (e.g. hosting the game just for developers, testers, etc, until the game is finished).

When you're ready to host for a massive amount of people, you should invest in a dedicated connection and server machine (or find a server host that will host the game for you).

Oh, thanks Admiral Refuge.
I still having questions about Scripts, could you help me?

PainKiller

Oh, thanks Admiral Refuge.
I still having questions about Scripts, could you help me?

I have some very good scripting tutorials, actually, a scripting book, that explains everything very well, but they are in English.

To your first questions, "if" checks a conditional, such as:
If GetPlayerName(Index) = "Bob" Then
  Call PlayerMsg(Index, "BOB, It's you!", RED)
End If
"Dim" declares a variable, like,
Dim PlayerName
PlayerName = GetPlayerName(Index)

ÅÐмiядζ ЯĢ€

Could you link it? please

And others questions about scripts,

if I want pets in my game, do I need script?
if I want costumes for sale in my game...script?
I was reading a topic about show the equipmnt of a character in game, script?

PainKiller

You would need a script for pets. Though a source edit would do it better.
You could just sell costumes from a store and paperdoll them.
That is paperdoll you will need to read some tutorials no scripting is needed though it can be complicated.

Marsh

PainKiller, take a look at the Script Database.  I think there is even a pet script in there.

Also, here is the book (the Scripting Tutorials, you'll find some useful guides).

ÅÐмiядζ ЯĢ€

paperdoll? I readed some about that.
Well, right now I only want learn about Scripting.
In the game, can I have houses for sale?
and other thing more, how many of players can play in the server? and can I change it?
I readed the lvl max in the game is 50, and for change it I need a script, its true?

Edit: Thanks for that Admiral Refuge, and sorry if I annoy with my questions

No problem. You know, you should take a look in the Tutorials board for some "Introduction To Eclipse" topics, also, read some tutorials on Paperdoll (the Tutorials Section is invaluable).
As for houses, there's a question in this very board, in a topic right next to yours with that same question.
You can have as many players as you want on your server, as long as the server can handle it, and for changing the max level, you just need to change the value in the data.ini, I think.

Don't be afraid to change something, like if you see a number in the data.ini, if you wonder "can I make this max value higher?", make it higher and see what happens.  A problem with this generation today, is that nobody is willing to mess around with things a little; back when I first came to Eclipse, I had to figure everything out myself, and by doing that, I managed to get a very good understanding of the engine.  Play around, see what you can discover

let's see if I got it (something) about scripts, for example in this page  Sadscript commands (EE 2.7.304)

says it:
 
    Sub PlayerMsg(Index As Long, Msg As String, Color As Byte)


Command Name: PlayerMsg.
Parameters: Index (long), Message (string), Color (byte).
Description: this sends a player message to the player with Index as index in the game.
Return value: no return value.

So, if I want use it I need to do this?

 Sub PlayerMsg(Index As Long, Msg As String, Color As Byte)
 Call PlayerMsg(Index [The thing of As Long I dont get it], "Hello", [and here, is a number of the color]

or something like that

You would do it like this:
Call PlayerMsg(Index, "Hello", RED)

I'd check out the section on procedures.

ÅÐмiядζ ЯĢ€

Well, I'm learning how it works,

And again Thanks Admiral Refuge, but I have a lot of questions, when one question is answered, other born from there, my question is the next, what is the "Main.ini" and where can I find it?
