Hi every one, i have a problem with the photon and a starting use this last night. There is two problems one is "PhotonNetwork.connected = false" and the other is "Timeout Disconnect while connecting to: ns.exitgames.com.5058.Check if the sever is available" i tryied change the region but doesn't worked.

Client Disconnect after watching video ad or in-app purchase
Hi.
I extended photon server Load Balancing app and hosted it in my local computer . I also connect my client to this server by using unity3d client plugin not PUN . Everything is fine but when client watch video or try in-app purchase , It disconnected from server . This happen when watching video end or in app purchase completed and after that , When returning to unity it disconnected from server . After debugging I noticed this is server who initiate disconnecting because client first get DisconnectedByServer Message and then Disconnected from server.
I even used PhotonNetwrok.BackgroundTimeout = 600; but it didn't help.
Please help me to solve this problem .
Thanks

Sending Post Data in authentication requests
Hi,
I've got my authentication server set up, but it really likes to deal with POST requests. I've figured out a hack to get around it, but it would be great if I could send post requests.
I understand that if I want to send posts I just need to use
Unfortunately, I have no idea what that will do in terms of formatting.
First, I need to set the format of the post request to
Then I need to add some key value pairs.
Any suggestions about how to do this? I have no idea what this text should look like and couldn't find any documentation.
Thanks,
Steve

Where can I find an example Unity project using Photon Server?
I have just downloaded and installed the Photon SDK on my server and would like to try connecting to it from a Unity project on a different machine & network. Is there a sample project available for this?
↧
Looking for advice before starting a project with this
First the goal of the project:
We want to have a server that does everything. Most of the examples I see about photon are having the clients direct gameplay. However we are trying to create a server side solution for our turn based battle game where clients have no control over what happens and simply submit orders and get told what happens because of those choices they make. Is Photon appropriate for this style of game with tons of heavy game logic in the photon code?
2nd question is, our client is unity and the download page says this:
Below SDK implements a lean networking framework, LoadBalancing API, offering programmers detailed control. As alternative, use Photon Unity Networking (PUN) which integrates more tightly with Unity's development approach.
It doesn't really explain the pros and the cons of using this SDK vs using PUN. If I have no prior experience concerns and just want to use the best option which should I be using?
Finally, after what I read it sounds like I should base the game off of the LoadBalancing application. However there does not appear to be a client sample app that is the client half of the LoadBalancing demo app. Does this exist?
Thanks for any input!

Load balancing concept
Hi. I'm new in Photon, and I want to understand few basics ideas of it.
let's say, I have one VPS. And I try to start Load Balancing instance by Photon Control.
In documentaion says "Loadbalanced setup for local development: A Master-server and two game-servers."
and config
Ok, next I'm thinking about servers and balancing.
How exacly servers are takes a hardware resource? One instance - one CPU? Thread? Why I need to use load balancing rather than Hive?
For example, I need to create 100 rooms with 50 users each in my real-time (fps) game. Maybe Hive-type will be enough.. I think not. But why?
One more question is: can I run Master and Game servers on different VPS? Is it possible?

Why am I getting a client-side Connection TimeOut error?
I have Photon Server installed on a remote PC. I have the LoadBalancing game running as a service and I have set Game Config IP to "Set Public: ".
On another PC (on another network), I try to connect to the server using PUN+ and these settings:

I am using PhotonNetwork.ConnectUsingSettings("1") to try to connect to the server.
After a few seconds, I get a time out error on the client side.

Problem connecting to self hosted photon server
Hi.
I have a big problem connecting to my self hosted photon server . Photon server hosted in a VPS windows server 2008 r2 . When I try to connect to my server from unity , I get this error :
TimeoutDisconnect while connecting to: "MyServerPublicIpAddress". Check if the server is available.
(PhotonNetwork.connectionStateDetailed value is 'ConnectingToMasterServer' until i get above error)
What I have done so far :
In Server :
- Photon server v3 is running in my server . Loadbalancing(MyCloud) is running , also RunTestClient works properly.
- GameServerIP set to my PublicIPAaddress.
- Firewall is off
-There is not physical router available for me because my server is running on VPS.( I Also call technical team which I bought my VPS from them but they answer me that you should use some software to configure port forwarding and there is no router available for you , So I don't know if I still need configure port forwarding or not ).
- I used command "netstat -an" and the result was something like this :
In Client :
-Firewall is off
-PhotonNetwrokSetting in unity is set to self hosted and IP is set to my server Public IP and port is set to 5055.
I actually test self hosting in my local network and clients in the same network can connect to server without any problem.
Please help me because I really don't know what else should I do?
Thanks for your answers.

Custom authentication ContentType
Hi,
Last question (I hope). I've written a tutorial that I'm going to post soon. I'm just ironing out details.
I have a working system, but I wanted to check something before I put up something that's actively wrong.
I'm using POST data for the username and password, and I'd like to be able to just use the model binding in ASP.NET Core. Unfortunately, I think that needs the contentType field to be set in the POST message. When I send a POST from Photon, I get a null content type. This means I have to open the body as a stream and read it in. It's not impossible, just inelegant, and a bit hard to explain![:smile:]( ":smile:")
So is there a way to set the content type to something? Or does someone know of a way I can use model binding without it?
Thanks,
Steve

How to use Photon 4 Plugins?
I use Photon 4 Plugins to extend the Game/Room behavior.
Here is how i use it:
1. I save the room data in Plugin, i think one plugin one room, is that right?
2. I override OnRaiseEvent() to deal all custom logic, and use data that was saved in the plugin.
Do i need to consider multi-threaded or Asynchronous task problem?

Multiroom chat
Hi, all!
I have a simple question.
How to create multiroom chat on Photon Server (not on photon cloud)?
I found on client:
- keepMasterConnection - fot staing in master lobby always
- masterPeer.sendOperation - for sending to master
on server almost nothing.. maybe AppLobbyType.ChannelLobby
I also found Photon.Chat.ChatClient with subscriptions and so on, but it's not work with Photon Server (maybe only with cloud)
Someone?
