Hi all,
i’m the developer of Galaxy Unlimited ( Freeware ),
There once was a Alpha version of a game called Galaxy Unlimited, then…
it’s creator saw the light and moved to Linux ( Red Hat Valhalla 7.3 ).
I’m re-coding the project.
Targets are planned for win32 and Linux.
I could use some help coding btw.
i code like a madman but making a MMORPG / MMPU is a shitload a work
I’m gonne use SDL now combined with general C++ code and some OpenGL deep
down ( so someone can use Dx as well shrug ).

Your MMG uses an IM network for gameplay? As I see it you have a
couple of options. If you want to, then people can build up their
own network on the fly, or as infrastructure using either Jabber
or IRC.
Alternatively you can grab the protocol plugins from something like
GAIM (gaim.sourceforge.net), or one of the other open source Linux
IM clients. That said you may have problems with licensing if you
want to stick with your freeware idea, since most of those are GPL’d
and GPL source code doesn’t mix with proprietary code other than
operating systems.
Cheers,

I was talking about a combined IM for Linux similar to trillian, not as part
of the game. altough it might be of intrest to note that i plan on
programming a seperate chat server ( without the user noticing it ) because
comunication between players is vital and is the bulk of the traffic, and a
lot of chatting during a battle might cause lag which you want to avoid at
such a point.
But tnx for the ideas
Cheers,
