Subject: Re: Games plugin

great, great, great!
Thanks a lot!, I'll try it soon (I promise :)) and see how it looks (I'm not a fun of online gaming, especially over chat), but I want to see your work...
What would be nice would be to post it to the forums too (or update the info if you already had a post)...
btw, don't rely on tcl/tk 8.5, we don't support it (unless you if/else and use tcl's compiled version of the algorithm vs. a tcl implementation (slower) on the condition 8.5 is available...)


Keep it up!

To all aMSN users/developers,

A plugin for Game support is currently under development.
This includes a newly designed protocol, currently *ONLY* supported
by aMSN (so you cannot play with MS-MSN or other chat clients users).

When finished, there will be support for both two-player games
and multi-player games.
At this moment, it is only possible to play the game "Dots and Boxes"
(this is a two-player game).

I'm working on the first multi-player game, which probably will be called
Sketch. This game (as all multi-player games) is played in a conference
window. One player will be selected to draw a word (coming from a language
file, the dictionary). Other persons have to guess which word is being
drawn.

For drawing, I implemented both the Vertex Reduction and the
Douglas-Peucker algorithm. Then, through the remaining points, I draw a
quadratic spline (supported by Tcl 8.4, Tcl 8.5 also has support for cubic
Bezier curves).

This might be relevant for other developers, I mean:
utils/drawboard used by the HandDrawing ink plugin

Find the plugin at:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=54091&atid=733148
The special Friday 13th version includes Sketch_demo.tcl
(developers only!)
Have fun playing Dots-and-Boxes! ("kamertjeverhuur" for the Dutch).

Greets to all,
JeeBee.
