Hey guys :)

Thought i'd post an update on whats been happening in the world of Liberty Unleashed lately.
First of all i'd like to appologise for the lack of updates and there is a reason for it.

Since the last blog post, i decided to recode a big portion of the mod. This being the Netcode.
The reason i decided to recode this is it was a bit shit and bandwidth heavy. It also wasn't as flexible as i wanted it (even though i did code it...), as i learnt more about raknet and C++ i noticed how bad it really was and how good it could be, although patching it up here and there just wouldn't cut it.
So yeh, i ripped out all the sync and stuff and started recoding, it should've took about a week to do really but meh what can i say, i'm lazy :P
So here we are, a few weeks down the line and the new netcode is nearly completed but not quite.

I do however have some good news :) Foot and vehicle sync has been re-implimented and is better than ever! Although they are not fully finished, the smoothness is great :)

I have made a small video showing foot and vehicle sync which i will upload shortly have uploaded to YouTube and is attached below (Bear in mind, i was recording at 15FPS and playing against somebody with a ping over 200. And since sync isn't finished, the lag compensation is crap)

Hopefully when this new netcode is fully implimented sync should be rivalling some of the other top GTA mods :) and bugs should be down to minimal.

Heres the crappy short vid:

Kuruma against a Idaho, :P The Kuruma should win.
Anyway from a testing perspective it looking good. Empett streets that looks made for street races.

Recoding, Syncing. All you come with is good news. And there is no reason to applogize on the updates. As long as the mod still is devloping, Evrything are fine.

I noticed one thing in the video. When the bashee chase the other Banshee, I saw three firetrucks. So far all good, But why are they colored? They should all be red, Not blue!

Colours for all the cars currently spawned are chosen at random by the server. Colours can also be forced to whatever colours you want too but chosing random was easier when i placed them :)

Player limit at this time is set to 100. Theoretically it should be able to handle it but the limit will be finalized after a couple of mass tests.
I'm hoping we can keep 100 though :)

The server will be released with LU, so people can host it themselves

Great :) Will be there something like 'private server'?? You can log in only when you enter password. For example I want play only with friends, I tell my friends the password and we play. Will be this possible?
