Forum :: Programming :: Looking for some feedback with a project.

Hey peoples, as some of you may or may not know, I'm currently working on a hobby programming project again.

It's in its early stages at the moment, nothing more than the clients login and register UI and an empty server.

What I'm really looking for right now is some feedback on how fast/smooth/responsive the UI on different machine specs.

It's open source so feel free to compile the thing yourself (CodeGear XE2) if you have any worries about downloading a .exe from me right after we found a virus in an old version of Seose =S

Here it is on my Google drive:

Cheers guys.

It works great for me.

I'm using windows 7(64-bit) with a dual-core cpu and 3gb memory.

Not sure if thats enough information for you but if it isn't just tell me ;o.

I can't run the server because the port that it's bound to is currently in use :P It could use some kind of server config file. If there is one and I'm just being stupid, could you possibly point me in the right direction with that? Thanks

I really was only looking to hear if the client UI runs smoothly between transitions and things. The server actually does very little =P (look at the source).
However, to change the port create a new INI file called "MetaArchaea.Server.ini" and create a section that looks something like this:

[network]

port=whatever

Don't forget to change the clients config to reflect this.

Ah sorry, my bad haha. Yeah I like the GUI, I went to register an account and it's all slick and runs smoothly on my laptop :)

So what kind of game are you making :o

or is it a secret :3?

A problem with your register is that emails dont allow certain characters. So it wont allow me to register a_choate@live.com

Again, not really what I'm interested in testing at the moment but all feedback is appreciated and I have now added underscores to the email validation. =D

UI looks nice and smooth (just opened the client exe because I'm lazy) but I feel like I'm looking at a web login rather than a game client interface. I require pretty pictures!

Don't worry, the background will be far less than grey in the future =P
