Multiplayer ENET Runs Extremely Slow

Here is my architecture design which runs very smoothly when connecting by localhost, but up to 1.5 seconds of lag when going through the internet, I am trying to find out why.

Method To Call A Function By A String
|
I just thought I'd share a header file I just created which I thought was pretty cool that allows you to call a function with arguments in a single string such as:
#include "Generator.h"
void TestFunc( int a, int b, const string& s )
{
c... |

UDP and Network Game

I am trying to design my first real network game but I am having trouble designing it (the game is a 2D 2 player shooting game). I figure that I will use UDP due to the obvious speed benefits and so far I figured as well that the clients would contin... |

HLSL TEXCOORD0 Modified?
|
When passed between the vertex and pixel shaders, is TEXCOORD0 modified somehow? Because if not, how does tex2D sample differently for each pixel if each one is given the same texture coordinate near a vertex?
I also wonder because in NVIDIA... |

Template Argument Deduction Order [C++]

I have a template function that looks like this
template<typename T, T J>
void Func()
{

}
Problem with this is, it means I must always specify the type:
Func<int,5>
When I really want to do
Func<5>
If I try how... |

GPL and External Library Source

Hi I have been trying to read summaries and the actual GPL v3 document itself and there is one thing I am fuzzy on and that is libraries and source. Here are my two distinct problems: Boost and Microsoft Research Detours Express

Game Lighting

Simple STL Unicode Trick

Hey,
I just thought I'd share a really useful trick I just created when you're working with unicode. If you are using unicode (std::wstring) and are having problems with libraries that only return regular strings (std::string) this simple inlin... |

Multiplayer ENET Runs Extremely Slow
|
Wait nevermind, I'm an idiot....
I wrote microseconds instead of milliseconds so it was actually running at 30 000 frames per second. Fixed and now it runs fine (still needs tuning though).
Thanks anyway

Multiplayer ENET Runs Extremely Slow

Every frame (30 fps) the server sends about 13 bytes to the client while the client sends between 0 and 5 bytes to the server.
By internet (sorry I wasn't specific) I meant that instead of using "localhost" I used by external IP address, so o... |

boost smart pointers on game

I use them all the time in games with either 3D or 2D graphics and have not noticed any severe performance problems. Theoretically when using them for access the only operation is a regular dereference and copying a smart pointer just increments... |

A Simple C Object Loader

Hey,
First I'd like to say how amazing Daabli is, I've been using it a lot and it comes in handy for almost any data parsing.
The only thing it's missing (unless I missed it) is a LoadFromString function as opposed to load from file in the r... |

Template Argument Deduction Order [C++]

Well I made it specifically for function pointers as that's what I need it for.
Another question, why does this:

{

template<typename T>
void Func<T, 1>()
{
int a = 0;
