Hi Boygroup seems not to work in the last alphas , I tried to ping and it reaches all the ip,s but boygroup nodes do not work.

regards

woa. thx for reporting. should be fixed now.

another one: server needs to be up before client starts. otherwise client complains about connection issues and won’t reconnect. working on that…

ok pls test with latest alphas. boygroup code saw quite some changes:

  • fixed connection issues of client
  • values are transmitted as is (were converted to singles before) -> higher bandwidth usage but lower processing time and no loss in resolution
  • colors are transmitted as is -> much faster
  • strings are transmitted with utf8 encoding (full unicorn support)
  • raw is transmitted as is -> i’d love to here about some kind of texture server
  • fixed issue where boygrouped string ioboxes didn’t update their values

note that these changes break compatibility with older clients/servers. so pls don’t try that. won’t work.
and if you can watch out for memory leaks pls. i didn’t saw any but you never know.
