Improving performance​

• Goto orbiter launchpad->extra->debugging options-> orbiter shutdown options, and edit it to de-allocate memory.

• Goto Orbiter\Modules\Plugin and edit ompclient.cfg and remove a # on a server close to you:

Rules​

1. Don't mess with others things without permission/understanding.

3. Connect properly

Troubleshooting
​

• If timewarp is 0.1x, the sync isn't working, you would have to forward port using option custom in the network tab.

• When fully synched, you will be able to see other clients visually, and as targets in MFD's. (and they you).

Helpful Tricks​

• Type \list to see the people currently online. Track them using the number on the left of them; example: \track 32 . Then type %jump to 32

• When you add things with scenario editor; type %list ; then %add <number you would like to share with the others>

Couldn't sleep. I think i go fly abit :thumbup:

 

[Fizyk]

I'm gonna hang out there sometimes Maybe we'll do something more serious than flying around KSC one day? Like, a race (along a track, or KSC to WIN), or maybe even a flight to ISS (should be doable in a few hours with a DG or XR-series)?

 

[Foofoo14]

Sure i guess ill take my LOL cruiser for a spin

I have moved the information about how to set up a server to: Server Administrators and Supporters

Be aware that if other players don't have that vessel installed, they'll just see you in a stock DG.

Secondary Server

I am thinking about putting up a secondary server with a differ solar system; Perhaps we could have like a really short version of the solar system??, or use some of the msss's systems? Is this wanted by anyone of you?

 

[Kriss]

Dedicated servers

For now I think everyone must stay together, there aren't many people using the only server that's known up.

In the future, if there are any more using the server that's up. I would be glad to set up more than 1 server for option of reality and scifi.

Even more so would it be fun to get up a dedicated server, but then there would be needed more than a few users. I see no reason for doing so at this moment, the current setup could still handle 500 users, with them having more than 1 ship each. So we will just see what happens. Perhaps if someone else took some effort to tell others about it, atleast people could experience the possibility of omp. And see that it really is something.

Having separate servers now would only make there less on the server, What i only want to for now is to put up server for differ solar systems, if people would like reality, they could meet in places that they were not affected by others wich were into scifi and large things.

Remember, the solar system is still very large, and there is allot of places to be. For example, scifi people could just meet on mars, or other planets and moons. And the ones wanting reality would still be with earth struggling with time.

OMP is a fun place to go sometimes. The server will still be up, it doesn't require much. At worst, it would only be down for a short while at worst, but that all depends on how many uses it, on how much i will make it a priority.

Serveral servers would be overkill at this moment. If someone else puts up a public server, i will redirect the current host of mine to that one, and put it down as long as there are so few using it.

The Public OMP Server will be online on: date to be confirmed.

Why to be confirmed? Because we need your help in filling out this simple poll: OMP Week Poll

Everyone is invited and you can access the chat room either via IRC at irc.orbithangar.com and join #orbiter or by using the chatroom applet located here: http://www.orbithangar.com/orbiterirc.php

NB: Normal IRC rules are still in operation.

If you have any questions about how to connect - please see the support thread, pm Kriss or join us in IRC.

MOD NOTE: Thread cleaned up at the request of Kriss.

Please keep OMP support questions in the OMP support thread.

Voice Server(VOIP) For OMP.

A multiplatform client running on windows mac or linux you can download it here: http://www.voicechatter.org/downloads.php

once you have downloaded "voicechatter" run the program click on top left corner on "self" then "connect" then "new server" and enter the following
server name: anything you want to call it
addressmp2.game-server.cc
port:1090
your name:enter your nickname here(other people will see this name)
hit "save server" then connect

Thank you deltawing for setting up this service for us:thumbup:

 

[ex-orbinaut]

Tested...

Okay, tested this Voicechatter, and it works quite well. Had a chat and a quick blast around with deltawing. Like having real world RT in Orbiter :thumbup:.

PS: Thanks to Kriss, also, for his helping me with getting OMP working in the first place.

Yes I agree.Thank you Kriss and Keith for your patience with me :tiphat: Keith and I did sync inside of omp and was able to talk voice after I worked out some issues with my ports. It appears everything is working well. After a quick microphone setup via text chat inside of voicechatter we got Keith's mic setup and me and Keith was looking at each other on the ground at cape canaveral and talking (voice) with each other. So I guess my next mission is omp2 sy-fy and getting the server.xml file ready to go. Server is up just not configured for sy-fy yet. I will start with the Star Trek universe (i know there's a bug) and concentrate on getting that ready for deployment

Server Going Down

The server will be going down in 3-4 months time. Cause I will be moving. It might come back up again months after. But I have to prioritize.

I Hope some of you would be willing to put up a backup server meanwhile, if so, please contact me. Then I will forward the host to the backup server.

My projects will be put on hold also. Sorry about this. But I might get back into orbiter in some time.

To me It's unrealistic, since I'm not going to fly any space vessels in the near future. But perhaps when there is flying cars around to my pricerange I would consider it. Even then there would probably be better simulators available. So orbiter to me is a mere experience for the unrealistic jobs that exist, and also for fun.

Lets see how it goes.

Sorry about all this everyone..

Kriss

 

[ex-orbinaut]

An excellent effort with the OMP server, Kriss. Hope all goes well for you.:thumbup:

 

[Dambuster]

Thanks for putting so much effort into it! I never did get it to work, but those who did sounded like they really enjoyed themselves, which is what matters! Good luck with the move!

 

[george7378]

I connected successfully, but my time-warp is stuck at 0.1X.

 

[cinder1992]

No sync, I had the same problem. unfortunately, my connection is too slow to connect to the USA server (ping of over 500Ms).

 

[Kriss]

a grand solution

Infact there exist a working solution that you all could use already. It will make everyone perfectly synched even with difficult ISPs and also lacking router access.

It's called hamachi, It's a tcp tunneling system.

It allows perfect synch for 5-7 constantly connected users. Use with causion

Atleast it would make things more fun for everyone this last few months.

So easy, and make omp obsolete

Connect to: OMPserver

Don't forget to use server-lan in OMP. <- don't always work it seems.
Try using custom, then write your 5.x.x.x ip address on the side of the custom option.

Always use the servers 5.x.x.x IP to connect (located on the top in the OMP client).


Using encrytion, and compression could also make the OMP freeze/delay a little sometimes. Especially when chatting singularily. I would suggest to disable this in hamachi.

Enjoy:tiphat:

So easy, and make omp obsolete

If you count a VLAN solution as a Orbiter multiplayer system, then yes. But if it makes it obsolete, why do you need an OMP server at all?

Or did you mean that it makes an OMP tunneling mechanism obsolete?

But judging from the smiley used, I'd say you were joking, so... :rofl:
