How do I authenticate users?

Hi,
I am trying to prototype a game (my client is Unity), and I'm trying to authenticate users. The page on the subject at the main site is confusing at best, so I have no idea how to do it.

What I would kind of expected to happen was that I will be able to send the login information through the InitRequest object, however, I was unable to find any way to control it from the client and enter any information into it.

So, how do I solve this?
Thanks.

Setting AuthValues doesn't work

I really don't know what more to say,
What information can I provide to help?
I assign the authvalues in the OnConnectedToMaster() callback, yet they are not being set and causing the errors:

Operation failed: OperationResponse 230: ReturnCode: 32767 (Authentication token is missing). Parameters: {} Server: GameServer

&

The appId this client sent is unknown on the server (Cloud). Check settings. If using the Cloud, check account.

I'll emphasis, this is a On-Premise server I'm hosting, and I haven't changed any settings, I just built from "C:\Photon Server\build\build.prompter.bat"

Do I even need to define the appID anywhere in the source code if it is not the cloud?

Unable to create room on client.

Hi, I've downaloded the photon server sdk, installed it and its up and running with LoadBalancing.

I created a sample client on Unity and seems I can connect and connect to master, even auto join lobby. But when I try to create room, this error log appears:


Failed parsing address:
UnityEngine.Debug:LogError(Object)
NetworkingPeer:DebugReturn(DebugLevel, String) (at Assets/Photon Unity Networking/Plugins/PhotonNetwork/NetworkingPeer.cs:1574)

ExitGames.Client.Photon.EnetPeer:DispatchIncomingCommands()
ExitGames.Client.Photon.PhotonPeer:DispatchIncomingCommands()
PhotonHandler:Update() (at Assets/Photon Unity Networking/Plugins/PhotonNetwork/PhotonHandler.cs:158)


And here is the c# code:


public override void OnConnectedToMaster() {
base.OnConnectedToMaster();
Debug.Log("Connected to Master");

RoomOptions room = new RoomOptions();
room.MaxPlayers = 1;
room.IsOpen = true;
room.IsVisible = true;

PhotonNetwork.JoinOrCreateRoom("Room123", room, TypedLobby.Default);
}


Checked the logs from the photon server and there isn't any log that correspond to that error.

Tried in Photon cloud and works flawlessly, this only happens when using the self hosted option. I'm using latest version of Photon server sdk and using Unity LTS 2017.4.1f1.

I would greatly appreaciate any help.

Photon Server + Plugins + PUN

Hi there,

I'm currently using PUN for my game, which is limiting to my case since I want to be able to have dozens/hunderds of players in the same world (MMoish)..

Atm I limit the number of players per room to 10. Also cheating is relatively simple since the authority is at best a master client.

My question is, can I use Photon Server + Plugins + PUN to run an a server that hosts hundreds of players? Or do the plugins stuff with the callbacks on the server work on for room based stuff?

Thanks ahead,
Michael.

Hi!

I have been lately having a issue where I send my GameStart operation server but the server doesn't send anything back or even log that the operation has been called when I do the debug directly on the ExecuteOperation.

After I disconnect from Photon on my client, I get these weird logs in the server:

We have quite a heavy FPS game, we have been doing all testing on my local machine as the server. What are some of the best most affordable hosting options for hosting around 5k CCU, faced paced shooter? If I have multiple servers and I want to update the game, do I have to update every single server, that would be a nightmare?

Use wifi router without internet for multiplayer.

Hi, I'm very interested in using Photon server on a windows 10 laptop, and have android devices connected through the same wifi router, we won't have access to internet, so I'm wondering if we can have multiplayer between the android devices connected to this server through wifi, I read that I have to have a unique IP, but i would like your suggestion on how to setup this please.

We want to use photon voice as well using this setup but not sure if it would work.

Also if there is another solution, for example if Photon Bolt would work too please let me know as we have also considered the posibility of using the laptop as a client host too.

I would appreciate any help.

Hello I'm french sorry for my english..
It's first time to use Photon

I will explain my concerns. So I'm developing a game like CS GO or R6S so a game with a game type called Demolition.
I used Photon for player interactions and everything around this area.

I would like to know how I can save data and store data by player (data like their weaponry, and get their stats in game and if you know how to take the steam account for player profile)

Thanks for your help..

Photon Server Chat Tutorial - weird issue

Hi,
I'm looking into Photon Server.. I'm following the chat tutorial:
https://doc.photonengine.com/en-us/onpremise/current/app-framework/an-app-from-scratch

I'm stuck on a weird issue on the last step where you need to add the broadcast using C# events.
If I add the line "BroadcastMessage += OnBroadcastMessage;" (subscribing to the event) in the ChatPeer constructor the client can no longer connect to the server.

Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.

If I comment it out I can connect and receive the response (not the broadcast obviously):

Image may be NSFW.

Any help?

Access to listening port

I have an interesting desire here:

In PhotonServer.config we set the UDP and TCP ports for listening to specific servers. In code we have access to ApplicationName and BinaryPath. Is there any way we can get an accessor to the UDP or TCP listening ports?

My reasoning is that when I'm building a set of servers in a generic way, I can't hard code a value and have it work. By giving us a getter for that value, I can take it and pass it to other applications on the same server so they can connect.

Maybe there is already a way to get this that I am unaware of?

hello, I have a game containing creating and joining random photon rooms.
the problem is when user creates a room, the room is full for about 5 seconds and other players can't join it. And after a few seconds the romm becomes available for others to join.
this is my code for creating room:


RoomOptions roomOptions = new RoomOptions();


roomOptions.CustomRoomProperties = new Hashtable { { "Game", "10" }, { "leagueName", leagueName }, { "mapName", mapName } };
roomOptions.CustomRoomPropertiesForLobby = new string[3];
roomOptions.CustomRoomPropertiesForLobby[0] = "Game";
roomOptions.CustomRoomPropertiesForLobby[1] = "leagueName";
roomOptions.CustomRoomPropertiesForLobby[2] = "mapName";
roomOptions.CleanupCacheOnLeave = false;
roomOptions.MaxPlayers = 2;
roomOptions.PlayerTtl = 2000;
roomOptions.EmptyRoomTtl = 2000;

PhotonNetwork.CreateRoom(null, roomOptions, null);

PhotonNetwork.autoCleanUpPlayerObjects = false;
PhotonNetwork.networkingPeer.DisconnectTimeout = 3000;
PhotonNetwork.BackgroundTimeout = 3;

please help my solve the problem. It's really annoying.

Photon server on Linux ??

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone ever tried to run a Photon instance on a Linux server ?

Or ... Do you have any plan to make a Linux version of your great piece of software ?
Photon will be our sockect server of choice (after trying SFS ...) but running on Linux is mandatory for anything serverside in our projects.

Cheers,

Arnaud
