Daniel Jiménez - Network Programmer

I have just released the most recent version of my online multiplayer FPS prototype. Now you can download it and give it a try! Link: danieljimenezmorales.itch.io/online-multipl… #netcode #multiplayer #madewithunity

Thank you for reading. Feel free to comment any thoughts/suggestions/etc... you have.🙂 You can check out the source code here: github.com/DanielJimenezM…

I’ve included in the first message of this thread a short video demonstrating two players moving around. No latency compensation techniques have been implemented yet, so any smooth movement you see is thanks to my loopback connection, haha.

Over the past few months, I've been improving the replication system of my Network-Library. Here are a few technical details I can share:

I have organized an Informal Hangout Call to talk about #multiplayer & #netcode topics. ✅ When? 4/09/2024 at 19:00 UTC ✅ Where? On the NetcodeDevs server I created a few months ago Interested? Join now via this link: discord.gg/AXGkWYxe?event…

@CreativeChris1 Last year's Multiplayer Blitz Day was incredibly helpful with really interesting questions and discussions. I hope this year's event is just as good or even better!

Multiplayer Blitz Day August 14th, 2024. An all online event, where you can directly engage with the engineering teams that have brought you the most amazing Multiplayer pre-release in Unity's Engine history. Be there. Grill us. #unity3d #multiplayer

Epic's documentation on the Replication Graph is pretty much non-existent so my newest article runs through the basics. It's essential if you're making a networked game in Unreal with more than a few players in a server kierannewland.co.uk/replication-gr… #UnrealEngine #netcode #gamedev

That second goal will be useful for determining which entities should employ client-side prediction. :)

Now, I'll be focusing on adding support for transmitting client-side inputs to the server. Also, I plan to improve my current replication system so that clients can distinguish between remote entities and locally controlled client entities.

Over the past two months, I've been working on setting up a small ECS game engine to develop a game using my Network Library. I believe I finally have the foundations in place. You can take a look at the engine here: github.com/DanielJimenezM…

Nothing worse than grenade rollback, right ? We solved this issue in @beautifullight with our Network predicted determinist grenade system. (Sound and animation are WIP). Basically, outside extreme bad network condition, grenade will never rollback, and will always be properly and physically accurate : no random bounce and (on paper) should always be accurate. The grenade are on client side predicted, and the physic behind is deterministic, meaning that the server and the client will always have a 1:1 match. We also choose to have a less realistic physic for grenade for a better gameplay with them (and being able to predict their trajectory more easily from a player side).

I didn't know so many people were interested in #Netcode and #Multiplayer It's a pleasure to be in a group chat with such talented developers who have worked on some of the biggest multiplayer games out there. Thank you very much for supporting this initiative! 🙏

Hello! I've just created a Discord channel dedicated to #Netcode and #Multiplayer in games. My goal is to build a small community of developers where we can discuss, ask questions, and share resources related to this topic. Join us here 👇 discord.gg/fnGF9YyN
