Well some Encryption/non encription comparisions in traffic, CPU-Usage/FPS and some file-load/http examples - in general im not really interested in if it works or not but in how fast and lets call it... 'hack'-resistant they are. So i wanna try to manipulate e.g. the traffic and look if its possible or if it throws an errormessage out (or even better dont be affected)

even if you crypt packets sent from client to server or server to client and even if it has a good hack-proof, it wont mean much for being hack-resistant. MMO cheaters generaly modify data before they sent, using some memory tools, or they dont do anything with data, they use BOT programs which plays for player.
In this type of case, encryption of packets wont stop them, you need to use something like x-trap or hackshield.

@FlorianP: Ok I will do something! I'm really corious if you can cause a crash. I designed everything so that it should seperate trash from usable data. Asgadirs problem was that he hadn't istalled the VC 2008 Redistributable Package. This can be downloaded here. I added this info to the manual (new version can be downloaded on the website). You should also use version 1.1.2.1 now (available on the downloadside), it contains one fix that can cause an error when loading the plugin.

News:I'm currently working on a Dead-Reckoning template. My target is an easy to implent Dead-Reckoning algorithm for games with characters (not for vehicles!). The DR should produce less traffic and should be used with only 1-2 function calls. The template will be also used in the techdemo (ideas for the techdemo are welcome ). Something about the security of ANet:FlorianP already tried to manipulate the traffic of ANet. It wasn't possible for him to "hack" ANet in any kind of way. If you want to know what and how he tried talk with him, please!

I opened a new thread in the multiplayer section where you can download and test the first version of the template. Please don't post in this thread about troubles with the template to keep things readable and clear! Here is the thread. Have fun while testing and don't forget to tell me what you think! EDIT: Forgot to tell you that I'm already planning new templates:+ A template that allows easy (just a few code lines) creating a LAN server list + A template for creating a Internet server list + Adding client update ranges for the DR template I'm also working on a basic HowTo (the german one is already finished): How to set up a Connection More howto's are planned and will follow soon!

I wanted to show you what I did so far for the new update (1.2.1.1):+ DR-Template (with Update Ranges) + Lanlist-Template + Internetlist-Template + 5 HowTo's + Improved Eventsystem + Using different scripts for server and client in Lite-C + several bugfixes + updated the source codes of the examples for the new plugin version + added several defines into anet.h for easier usage of anet functions To-Do:+ 3D VoIP + HTTP Upload + HTTP Download 3D VoIP is very tricky... I hope to get this working soon! If you find bugs in the current version, just let me know. Now is the best time to remove them

What would you prefer:
File Up/Download with FTP or with HTTP?
File Upload with HTTP Put has the disadvantage that it's mostly disabled on webservers. But using FTP has the disadvantage of another port that has to be configured in the firewall.
