The online racing simulator
.NET C# - Open Source Cruise App(1) (using LFS_External)
Version 1.0.1 uploaded. All that is done is that the MySql reference is removed and so is the dbProcess class.

Ok, so.. I got really bored and decided to finally upload one of the 3 projects that I had decided to share.

The story(you can sure skip this part if you are not interested ): Well, at 1st this was going to be a paid project. One guy started talking to me in msn at the start of 2010(or maybe the end of 2009, you know I don't remember much of the things around new year time). He offered me $30 or something like that if I would make him an insim app. I kind of agreed, but then in the same time like new year luck I got busy with a lot of other projects, and kind of left this one behind. It stood there in the folder untouched for days, which then became weeks and after these other projects I decided that I don't have enough time for it, because I am still working on some of them, and there are more planned so yeah. Then a few weeks ago I just saw that this cruise app is the biggest project I have taken since the start of the year and in the same time the least paid one. After that I decided that it isn't worth continuing on with it, and here I am, getting rid of it.
That's pretty much it - long story short(well not very short, but still :razz.

Something kind of important for all the people that will download this: I can not guarantee that this will work instantly. I just archived the whole project, as I had left it a couple of months ago, so it might need some doing, so don't be surprised if it just refuses to work. Also I'm quite busy and I won't be able to help on it very much, and I will be answering only in this thread(just saying in case someone decides to flood my inbox with questions).
[E] Ah, yes, something I forgot: In order for this to work on your server, you have to change this line in Form1.cs(and compile after that):
InSimSettings Settings = new InSimSettings("localhost", 29999, 0, Flags.InSimFlags.ISF_MSO_COLS | Flags.InSimFlags.ISF_MCI, '!', 500, "password", "^1Unnamed", 5);

Where you have to replace "localhost" with the IP address of your server; "29999" with the port of your server; "password" with the admin password and if you want to give it a name, change "^1Unnamed" to whatever you want.

Big thanks to:

morpha for helping me with the licensing and much more stuff;
dougie-lampkin for Open Source Cruise Server, from which I have learned the basics of C#.

Nice code, too bad i didn't have it earlier, learned a lot about MySQL

Thank you!

EDIT: @Broken: Wouldn't closing/opening the MySQL Connection every time, the application has to load/save/update information to MySQL cause some lag? I've actually had problems in my older application, when i only open the SQL connection once, which is when the application is opened itself. But sometimes, it looses connection, so i was thinking, that the idea of opening/closing the database is a good idea. Thanks!
It would use some more traffic, but it wouldn't make that much difference. And, yes, I had considered to make an open and close function on the side, but after some more thinking, I found out that I would need to use 3 lines each time I need to update the database, instead of one, and it would make no difference anyway. So that way is better, imo.

Ah, good Traffic isn't the problem. I was thinking that if it takes 5 seconds to load players stats, when he connects, it might cause something bad

Anyways. Thanks again!

Definitely not. I'm using the same method for the -OsR- InSim app. and it does not cause any problems. This is 100% copied from it, and just modified to suit the needs of a cruise insim application.

The only thing that is slow in the SQL part is in the -OsR-'s app. and that is the !pos command, but tbh, I don't even know what does it exactly do yet anyway. And I think that it's not the application, but the server that is responsible for the delay. Plus, I doubt that such command will ever be needed in a cruise server.

This has also been using as the SQL base for the -OsC- insim app, which should tell you how comfortable I am feeling with it.
Hello, i'm having problem with this insim. First off all, problems with Mysql.Data (at references). (look at attachments).
Second: insim says: 'The insim interface was unable to connect to the remote host'
insim's settings:
// InSim connection settings
InSimSettings Settings = new InSimSettings("88.118.36.79", 29999, 0, Flags.InSimFlags.ISF_MSO_COLS | Flags.InSimFlags.ISF_MCI, '!', 500, "default", "^1Unnamed", 5);


Can somebody help me?

newInSimSettings -> new (space) InSimSettings ?
In "default" you have placed the admin password of the server I hope.

Also, sorry for confusing everyone. The dbProcess file is there, and the mysql reference is supposed to be there too, but the insim doesn't actually save the user accounts. Probably I never reached that point in the project. You are free to delete the MySql reference, and also the dbProcess class. And it should work.
