Unity XIV

Okay Proximity chat is kind of worth sometimes

@ElysianXIV hi but hidden

@Synnerette @Skull_God @Paramorasen I am also working on a much more exciting project called RaidsRewritten, I encourage you to check that one out!

@Synnerette @Skull_God @Paramorasen Dev here, nothing much really, I'm getting more bug reports that I'm working on fixing but I don't have the resources (or really the desire) to scale the service up. I understand this is mostly a novelty so I expect the numbers to go back down after a few days.

UPDATE: Posts that went viral for discovering Proximity VC plugin for FFXIV are disappearing??? One account went private after their post going viral, while the other post is just outright deleted and only gives an error when you click on said post. Are players getting banned??

@rolanberrypie Auspicious encounter 😆

It's amazing the people you meet at Fan Festival. I was seated for the piano concert and talked with the person next to me. It was @UnityXIV. FOUND OUT A WEEK AFTER FANFEST THEY MADE FUNNY ADS FOR ULTISTRATS

@Synnerette I can tell you it is only because unblurred names were in those pictures, and those posts got way more popular than they were meant to be

@quinnfiddy @GamingWithNep @WiseSwordFish46 @ElysianXIV I want to clarify that there is no p2p connection being established, as that would leak IPs between users. All connections are done through the TURN relay server to keep IPs private.

@DankTankXIV Oh yea for sure it is unnoticeable, it's mostly a meme funny you can tell people that bring up the extra damage thing

@UnityXIV oh im surprised every healer ive spoken to has said they dont even notice the 6 stack vs 7, or at least they can use the same amount of healing to cover it

6-2 Akh Morns FRU Guide is here! youtu.be/pUM-UIv-ZYo?si…

@DankTankXIV Surprisingly you just live easily even with the wrong debuff in the party stack

@DankTankXIV Nono so a common criticism of 6-2 is that the party takes 15% more damage right. So as the tank without aggro on Ryne you can take 2 hits with the tank stack, and then move into the party to take another 2 stacks for only 7.5% more damage.

@GamingWithNep @WiseSwordFish46 @ElysianXIV TLS-encrypted, specifically the DTLS-SRTP handshake, a standard of the WebRTC protocol

@UnityXIV @WiseSwordFish46 @ElysianXIV Plaintext or TLS-encrypted?

@GamingWithNep @WiseSwordFish46 @ElysianXIV On a high level, it's routed through an open-source voice server To get more technical, the client uses WebRTC protocol to send voice data through a self-hosted TURN server (eturnal)

@UnityXIV @WiseSwordFish46 @ElysianXIV Where is the data sent? Obviously has to use some kind of server in order to transmit the data for the audio since that can’t be sent in game.

@WiseSwordFish46 @ElysianXIV Yup, a full voice chat client is embedded in the plugin and it adjusts individual volumes based on player positions

@ElysianXIV @UnityXIV How does this work from a technical standpoint? Is it actual proximity in game? this is awesome

discord down everyone hop on proximity voice chat plugin meet me at Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks ( 9.4 , 11.6 )

Discord goes down and I see ProximityVoiceChat getting used haha, glad to be of service 🫡
