    What do the LUPoints do? Or: how to gain some?

    • nitro99x February 3, 2015 @ 12:46 PM

      I also don´t get it, but somehow I have got quite a few.

    • Timtech February 3, 2015 @ 4:40 PM

      The don’t really do anything, but you can get them by visiting the page and writing good comments.

      • Lego king February 4, 2015 @ 4:59 PM

        Cool thanks

      • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 11:50 AM

        Thanks TimTech!

        But, I’m stuck with the name “Emmet” (EmmetBricksburg!)

        Aww…. 🙁

        I’m LEGOAdventurer! (Not Emmet 🙁 )

        Also, my picture is different! than Emmet’s 🙁

        But the grammar…same 🙁

        *Walks off angrily and leaves for good*

        • LEGOAdventurer February 6, 2015 @ 1:08 AM

          TimTech, I shouldn’tbe here because people thinking Im Emmet and I’m not (because picture is different and name) but crammed gives it all.

          I shouldn’t be here I should just play LU and and develop the server.

          Also, when 0.6 released I play it.

          Bye 🙁

      • EnderGaming February 7, 2015 @ 6:22 PM

        i cant log in!

  2. Slapjralt February 3, 2015 @ 1:35 PM

    So timtech,

    What version will we be able to play as our new characters and possibly play full online with other players?

  3. Logos03 February 3, 2015 @ 4:15 PM

    Hello, I really want to download this file but I noticed it was 5 GB, My computer specs are only at 4 GB does that mean it will crash my Pc?

  4. Knightoffaith February 3, 2015 @ 5:57 PM

    So am I asking for something completely unreasonable, or would an introduction to LUNI development document be a viable option? Reading the packet info helped some, but as far as the application goes, the RakNet manual isn’t the best from the bit I’ve looked at it, and I don’t think that helps with the actual LUNI files/server application. At the very least including a page here for interested developers with resource links and at least some basic additional info from what is currently available now would be helpful (or at least some minor info of the basics to get people up and running).

    Thanks.

  5. Caboose1543 February 3, 2015 @ 9:31 PM

    TimTech i’m advertising around my school and telling friends about LU’s revival with my website http://theblackmerkit.weebly.com/luni.html it may not be much, but when we get a solid server we need people to fill it up 😀 if i need to throw in anything just tell me.

  6. Logos03 February 3, 2015 @ 9:50 PM

    Uh oh! So I successfully downloaded the “Nexus 2” file, But when I try downloading the “0.5” server it says that the page is not found, I do have a windows 8.1, I do not know if that will make a difference, Answers will be appreciated! Thanks!

  7. HyperiorV February 3, 2015 @ 10:29 PM

    I have a question. When we get back in the universe, will we get anything to compensate for the restart (which could possibly tie into LU points)? For example, could we be getting just small gift/packets with like 5,000 coins or will be starting from scratch?
    I know it’s a bit greedy/entitled to ask a bit more for benefits, but I think it would be a nice nod to help us get back on our feet. Especially for those who are really anticipating the remake. (see LU points)

    • Jon002 February 4, 2015 @ 5:38 PM

      Sure! That would actually be an interesting idea… Similar to those who participated in the beta. This is, assuming of course, that we manage to get the mail system working.

    • pwjones1969 February 5, 2015 @ 12:56 PM

      That would depend on whose server you use to play. If you run your own server, you could make your minifig(s) the highest level, give them the best gear, etc. If you connect to another’s (like TimTech’s), what you get is up to the person that runs the server.

  8. Logos03 February 3, 2015 @ 11:09 PM

  9. LightningAgent February 4, 2015 @ 1:42 AM

    When I launch legouniverse_mac, I see the minifig running picture and then It just closes. What is wrong?

  10. LEGOAdventurer February 4, 2015 @ 3:06 AM

    Hello TimTech,

    I’m LEGOAdventurer! (LA)

    I’m a 100% Fan of LEGO and LEGO Universe!

    Also, Thank You and the Devs for Restoring LEGO Universe! because there are many sad/upset/etc LEGO/LU Fans that wants the game back…but, if we advertise more then we can get a Nexus Force Reunion (when everyone hears LEGO Universe is coming back).

    Also, Thank You for you going to email me about the features 0f 0.6 (when it comes out: As you emailed William and told him the features 😉 ) and William told me briefly about the features E.G. Create/Save Character, start him on the Venture Explorer and goto Avant Gardens and complete the Missions, build on Block Yard, Avant Grove and once you completed the missions, you can go to Nimbus Station but you can complete missions yet. Until the next update: 0.7). I’ll wait for your email when 0.6 comes out 😉

    Answer The Call. Save Imagination!

    For the Nexus Force!

    Yours Sincerely,

    LEGOAdventurer

    P.S. TimTech, can we be LEGO Universe Friends and team up in LEGO Universe? (When hopefully the project completed)

    • LEGOAdventurer February 4, 2015 @ 4:03 AM

      Also, I would like to Develop and implement the packets to the game (as I saw them above). But, how to add them? Can you tell me? (So I can get started! 🙂 )

      • Jon002 February 4, 2015 @ 5:43 PM

        What I would recommend is to download the source code of the server and just familiarize yourself with it. After that, start looking through the packets and comparing them to humanoid24, lcdr, and pwjones’ research above. That’s mainly what I’m doing right now (I’m trying to get the auth to dynamically create a packet… Hopefully that will go ok). Mainly, its just trial and error for the server at this point, or just implementing the current research.

        You can also look around here: http://www.raknet.net/raknet/manual/ for information on the ReplicaManager (don’t know how useful it is right now as RakNet 3.25 uses ReplicaManager2 and this uses ReplicaManager3… but maybe they’re similar enough!)

    Hello,
    I was in the Holidays but now I’m back and want to now what is new here as was not here…

    • mater06 February 4, 2015 @ 9:04 AM

      Nothing much, the devs released info on the server packets, and Jon002 got a server working without visual studio, but that’s about it.

  12. Patric Riedel [MrDialga300] February 4, 2015 @ 8:55 AM

  13. HERO February 4, 2015 @ 9:51 AM

    Hello, my name is HERO, I’m here since 2013/2014 and I never really posted a message with my REAL identity, always used different names, emails, websites etc.

    But here I am. I want to thank you for saving a great game, I can’t thank you enough! really.

    the bigger reason I’m here is because I want to help as much as I can, oh and another thing! I want to let you know how much i’m connected to my name HERO,
    I use this name every single place I can. the only place I couldn’t use it was in terraria, some of you may know Terraria HERO, everytime I entered a server everyone thought I was him. but please I want to have the rights to use this name completely here, and by here I mean timtechsoftware luhub etc..

    just asking for a permission to have it in LU.

    Thank you 🙂 .

    • Timtech February 4, 2015 @ 4:54 PM

      If we set up registration, you can be the first to register that username if you like.

      • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 9:30 AM

        Can you do it for me too? (with the name: LEGOAdventurer) because I’ll venture the universe!

        • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 9:33 AM

          Also, because I would like to create a account (register in LEGO Universe) and create/save my character: LEGOAdventurer. 🙂 My first Minifigure 😉

      • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 10:17 AM

        “If we set up registration, you can be the first to REGISTER that username if you like.” Can I be second too? and set it up for me? (Can I have it in LEGO Universe because I’m going to play as him in the game). (NOTE: I would be second. So, permission to play as “LEGOAdventurer” in game?)

        Permission please? *Waits patiently*

        • Timtech February 5, 2015 @ 12:50 PM

          Umm… sure. Whenever we get around to registration.

          • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 1:33 PM

            Thanks TimTech!

            Are you done with that?

          • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 1:38 PM

            Are you done with Registration? Ready for 0.6? because if we Create/Save our Characters (as PWJones said 2/3 pages ago that he didn’t test it out because it has been implemented). And will people access to your characters? (because what if the gibberish username and password people can access to my character!).

          • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 1:40 PM

            Is it done? because I hope when we create/save our characters, someone won’t delete/steal my minifgure!

          • Knightoffaith February 5, 2015 @ 3:05 PM

            There’s still work to be done on that last I knew. Nobody has released the source with that anyways (well, with 0.5 you can create, but not save or use).

          • Timtech February 5, 2015 @ 5:55 PM

            Don’t worry; if characters can be saved, registration will be required.

          • Rybat117 February 5, 2015 @ 6:16 PM

            1. Please stop spamming

            2. It probably won’t be done anytime soon

          • N/A February 6, 2015 @ 1:53 AM

            Rybat don’t be mean to me!

  14. Patric Riedel [MrDialga300] February 4, 2015 @ 9:56 AM

    TimTech what do you need now for the server???

    • mater06 February 4, 2015 @ 12:28 PM

      With the LUNIserver in C++

      …Or with what you are doing with Gamebryo?

      (Sorry I’m just very eager to see what happens with what your doing and am wanting to kinda help out.) 😀

    • Jon002 February 4, 2015 @ 11:01 PM

      Mainly we need to get the Replica Manager set up and/or (probably either first or at the same time) make the server dynamically create the packets.

  15. CDFalcon February 4, 2015 @ 2:32 PM

    I have started building my first replica manager packet!

    • Jon002 February 4, 2015 @ 5:45 PM

      Awesome! Please, keep us update on that! If you can get it implemented into the server, I would love to see an example that (I am working on the auth and char sections right now before I delve into the RM portion of the server). Also, if you can, I’d really love to be able to see an example of how to start implementing ReplicaManager2 into the server itself. That would help me a lot in my progress as well.

      Answer the Call. Save Imagination.

    • Timtech February 5, 2015 @ 12:51 PM

  19. Techtrix February 4, 2015 @ 6:09 PM

    Hey all! Ive been off and on here and have noticed this project is coming along quite well! Tim, or any other developers, is there anything I can help contribute with (sorry if Ive asked before)? Ive been learning programing but I don’t have enough skill to code something this complex lol. If there is ANYTHING I am more than willing to help!

  20. mater06 February 4, 2015 @ 6:32 PM

    WOOOOOOOAAAAH

    Is this Luni or is it not? It says private server, but the textures look alpha….

    http://youtu.be/5ErQABF5kQY

    P.S. can anybody translate what he is saying?

    • Timtech February 4, 2015 @ 6:37 PM

      It’s fake, filmed before the closing.

      • airplane1717 February 5, 2015 @ 4:39 AM

        But there’s no one in the server.
        Why???

        • airplane1717 February 5, 2015 @ 4:43 AM

          No just saw it again
          And there players there
          I JUST GOT FAKED!! 🙁
          I’m gonna hate him!!

      • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 9:26 AM

        Private Server 😉 (look at the title 😉 )

        So, he can play the alpha in localhost.

        Clever. Maybe we could do that!

        Download the LEGO Universe Alpha, changed the server to localhost and play it! (change in bootcfg 😉 if you don’t it will say: “failed downloading LEGO Universe, check your internet Connection or go to LEGOUniverse.com for troubleshooting” click ok and the launcher closes.

    • Natsu22 February 5, 2015 @ 4:08 AM

      I can translate it.
      Its in my language ^_^ ( Polish )

    • Natsu22 February 5, 2015 @ 4:14 AM

      It’s fake probably.
      He said:
      If you think about buy this game… oh, you dont need think about it because its already closed, BUT I MADE PRIVATE SERVER, IT WASN’T REALY EASY, BUT I DID IT . (Hahahhah funny)
      It’s fake. he’s probably 12-13 years old…he’s not able to do private server.
      And tell everytime: This game is multiplayer, etc. etc. but if i see he really dont know what that mean’s…..
      Fake 10000000000000000000000000000%

    • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 9:20 AM

      I saw the video (beginning) and it was real (because it was singleplayer…)

      Hmmm? Possibly he has the alpha client (when he downloaded it before the closing…Way before because Alpha was about: 2009). So, he changed the servver to localhost.

      Whoa. Also, he’s doing missions! (Yes because when he changed to localhost everything was the there: E.G. NPCs and Enemies. 🙂 )

      Clever kid… 😉

      • Natsu22 February 5, 2015 @ 12:25 PM

        Nope. Im Polish so, i can understand 100% in this video.
        It’s a troll. He said all those players are his friends, and he let them play before he start….. -_-
        It’s fake 100%

      • Timtech February 5, 2015 @ 5:56 PM

        It is fake, all fake. You can’t just change the client to connect to an imaginary server on localhost and expect it to work.

  21. Logos03 February 4, 2015 @ 6:45 PM

    I cannot find the “boot” file in the Nexus2 file, All I see is the “Boot.Cfg” are they the same?

  22. Logos03 February 4, 2015 @ 8:49 PM

    So, I have realized that these private servers are on Localhost, Does that mean someone using the same WIFI will be able to join and play together. If so how do they do it?

    • Timtech February 5, 2015 @ 6:00 PM

      They can both connect to the same server, but will not be able to see each other or interact in any way.

    • Jon002 February 7, 2015 @ 6:39 PM

      Just to add to Tim’s comment (Which is completely correct), basically, there are two addresses connected to the same server (see UserPool.h and UserPool.cpp in the server source… At least, from what I’ve seen, this is a pool of the users), however, the ReplicaManager is responsible for sending out data that tells all clients who is currently on the server and then telling the clients to display them Basically (I believe) the current server is multiplayer, yet currently acts singleplayer.

  24. Knightoffaith February 4, 2015 @ 10:01 PM

    Can anyone help me fill in the gaps in my into to development document? Towards the end especially I don’t have the knowledge at this point to be able to provide the info. Also, if what I already put down could be checked over in case something needs to be changed or added, it would be much appreciated!

  25. Knightoffaith February 4, 2015 @ 10:06 PM

    Also, any reason RakNet 3 is being used as opposed to RakNet 4? Is there a limitation in the LU source?

    BTW John, I noticed a RakNet lib directory in the dependencies in your server source (either for Link or include directories, can’t remember). What is it used for, do I need it, and where can I get it?

    • Jon002 February 4, 2015 @ 10:57 PM

      Yep. LU appears to have used RakNet 3.25 for their server (I forget how they figured this out… I believe some interaction with the client and server verifies this but I’m not 100% sure…). I believe the client three errors is another version was used, but feel free to try to update RakNet! I just don’t know if the client expects 3.25 or not.

      Also, for the RakNet .lib file, basically all that is is the compiled RakNet source. You can download it from here:

      LINK: http://www.raknet.com/raknet/downloads/

      Basically it is just the header and methods files of the source that I’ve compiled. If you want to produce the same, you can create a static library connected to the LUNIServer application or just add the files directly in the LUNIServer project in Visual Studio.

      Also, I do really want to get the source documented! I’ve just been super busy late and haven’t had a lot of time to work on the server itself. I just feel as if people that want to help have to really just get adjusted to how the server is programmed. I’ve just been a part of the project really since its inception back in 2012, and so I’d really like to document it to the best of my knowledge so that people such as yourself can really help! But I just don’t know how long that will take (unless someone else decides to document it for me as well).

      Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
      -Jon002

      PS: If you’ve got any questions, I’m seriously thinking about opening up another sourceforge site that we can use for development purposes… What would you think about that? Basically, the community can post questions here (I’ll make that very clear (We will help users that may happen to post a question on the forums but we would also tell them to ask future questions here.) while we use the forum itself to discuss packet info, source code, use a GIT or SVN repo to log changes we make, etc. what do you think about this idea?

      • Knightoffaith February 5, 2015 @ 3:18 PM

        I think that it would probably be a good idea. However, I won’t have the ability to participate there myself (honestly not sure how I’m allowed to do what I currently am, but I’ll go with it). If you could, just make sure that there’s a way that those who can’t/don’t join can still see the info and be able to grab/work on the source if you can.

    • pwjones1969 February 5, 2015 @ 8:12 AM

      To add to Jon002’s post, humanoid24 figured it out because some of the handshake packets had “3.25 ND1” in them. He figured that meant NetDevil and RackNet version 3.25. That is set as the incoming password for the server.

      I don’t think newer versions of RakNet will work because at some point the MessageIDs changed so the client would be sending one ID and RakNet would think it is something else.

      • Jon002 February 5, 2015 @ 7:06 PM

        Ah! Thanks. Its been a while since I’ve been actively looking around at the LUNIServer forums (and I believe raffa deleted the old dev posts).

    Is there a possibility of playing the game from the beginning? It’s fun to explore the worlds and all, but I would have much more fun if I can create my own character and start it from the beginning.

    • Timtech February 5, 2015 @ 7:17 AM

      Not yet, but we hope that eventually we will get close to that.

      • Dear TimTech... February 5, 2015 @ 9:06 AM

        Why not yet? because not until it’s release (because as PWJones said about that we can create/save our characters and start him on the Venture Explorer and you said: “Done? not until it’s release 😉 ” (2/3 pages back?) so we are still waiting for that 😉 )

        Also, TimTech, William told me what will be in 0.6: We login with our account (TimTechSoftware Account), create/save your characters, start them from the Venture Explorer and start completing missions until Avant Gardens (so you can’t continue and complete your mission: E.G. Go to Nexus Jay. Because we have to wait for the next release), Build in our properties (Block Yard and Avant Grove), Enemy and NPC interaction (completing missions and getting smashed!), etc. But, our pr0gress won’t be saved when we closed the client and server because: Character Saving (Character’s Progress in game) E.G. Your first character is a level 10, their items, models, rockets (from Venture Explorer and you can buy in vendors, or models in Avant Gardens launch bay…where you go to Block Yard and fight the spider queen: That too won’t be saved… 😉 ), building your property, etc. Everything won’t be saved so when you get server and client up again, you will have to start again at the Venture Explorer (at the back of the ship, where you spawn). But, you are trying to do that!

        So, Thank You for telling William the 0.6 features! (and William told me yesterday…Don’t worry 😉 I won’t post alot like Emmet 😉 )

      CDClient.fdb is a compressed, XML database. It contains behaviors, items, maps, zoneids, etc.

      • Jon002 February 5, 2015 @ 7:07 PM

        How exactly do you decompress that? I’ve always wanted to look around inside of it…

          I really am not sure. I think it was lcdr that created a python script to decompress it. And then I think the beginning is binary and needs to be removed before you get to the xml.

    Dear TimTech,

    “Is there a possibility of playing the game from the beginning? It’s fun to explore the worlds and all, but I would have much more fun if I can create my own character and start it from the beginning.” and you replied: “Not yet, but we hope that eventually we will get close to that.”

    Why not yet? because not until it’s release (because as PWJones said about that we can create/save our characters and start him on the Venture Explorer and you said: “Done? not until it’s release 😉 ” (2/3 pages back?) so we are still waiting for that 😉 )

    Also, TimTech, William told me what will be in 0.6: We login with our account (TimTechSoftware Account), create/save your characters, start them from the Venture Explorer and start completing missions until Avant Gardens (so you can’t continue and complete your mission: E.G. Go to Nexus Jay. Because we have to wait for the next release), Build in our properties (Block Yard and Avant Grove), Enemy and NPC interaction (completing missions and getting smashed!), etc. But, our pr0gress won’t be saved when we closed the client and server because: Character Saving (Character’s Progress in game) E.G. Your first character is a level 10, their items, models, rockets (from Venture Explorer and you can buy in vendors, or models in Avant Gardens launch bay…where you go to Block Yard and fight the spider queen: That too won’t be saved… 😉 ), building your property, etc. Everything won’t be saved so when you get server and client up again, you will have to start again at the Venture Explorer (at the back of the ship, where you spawn). But, you are trying to do that!

    So, Thank You for telling William the 0.6 features! (and William told me yesterday…Don’t worry 😉 I won’t post alot like Emmet 😉 )

    Yours Sincerely,

    LEGOAdventurer

    P.S. “If we set up registration, you can be the first to REGISTER that username if you like.” Can I be second too? and set it up for me? (Can I have it in LEGO Universe because I’m going to play as him in the game). (NOTE: I would be second. So, permission to play as “LEGOAdventurer” in game?)

    P.P.S. Sorry to bother you just wanted to say something 😉

    • startreklover February 5, 2015 @ 11:33 AM

      Your scentence structure and grammar gives it away 🙂 hi emit. Just don’t spam, and you’ll be fine.

      • startreklover February 5, 2015 @ 11:35 AM

        Stupid phone. Sorry for the autocorrect, Emmet*

      • LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 11:45 AM

        *Sniffs*

        Well, My name is LEGOAdventurer (and the picture is way different than Emmet’s).

        Awww. I’m stuck with that name 🙁

        *Leaves and Don’t come back 🙁 *

  30. mater06 February 5, 2015 @ 11:13 AM

    While I am downloading GameBryo I notice that it already will take a while just to download, more or less install. *Start’s Jeopardy theme*

  31. LEGOAdventurer February 5, 2015 @ 11:39 AM

    I saw this: “The small stands might not be generated due to missing packets, so you’re probably right.”-So, is that the stands where NPCs Car Vendors?

    So, we can’t race there when the project completes 🙁

  32. mater06 February 5, 2015 @ 12:03 PM

    YES! I have downloaded and installed GameBryo, I won’t bring any updates from now on until I get something big or if i give up 😉

    So, until then, I am signing out! 😀

  33. Logos03 February 5, 2015 @ 12:34 PM

    I really need some help, It will not work for me to go to different worlds, Lego Universe Now’s tutorial didn’t work. Can I have a detailed walk through of how to do it?

    • Knightoffaith February 5, 2015 @ 3:14 PM

      Following LUN’s should show exactly what’s needed. What didn’t work?

      • startreklover February 6, 2015 @ 10:22 AM

        Lol thanks for your faith in me :). But yes you need to download notepad++ then download the “hex editor” addon. Once you do that open the file with notepad++, go to addons again and click “view in hex”. Boom, checksums.

    • Rybat117 February 5, 2015 @ 6:21 PM

      You need Notepad++ to do it, I think. Besides that it’s pretty easy, as long as you’re putting the checksums in the right places.

  34. Natsu22 February 5, 2015 @ 12:34 PM

    Emm, i’ll ask…..
    Any progress already? 😀

  35. Techtrix February 5, 2015 @ 4:20 PM

    Some people have been talking about LUNI 0.6, when will that be released?

    • Knightoffaith February 5, 2015 @ 4:33 PM

      Whenever someone develops it. 😛

      • Techtrix February 5, 2015 @ 5:15 PM

        Oh haha. So it hasn’t been developed yet. Is anyone working on it or is it just an idea right now?

        • Knightoffaith February 5, 2015 @ 5:41 PM

          Short answer: Yes. 😛

          There are a couple different groups of people trying to work on it, with varying levels of knowing what they’re doing.

          Honestly, I have no idea who is actually doing what, I’m sure someone else could answer your question better.

    • Timtech February 5, 2015 @ 5:54 PM

      No date, it’s just speculation so far.

  36. mater06 February 5, 2015 @ 6:11 PM

    Hey, guys… bad news…

    Gamebryo didn’t install right. It says I am missing many .dll’s to run the asset viewer and the toolbox, Patric, if you have experienced this or you could help me, that would be appreciated!

  37. CDFalcon February 5, 2015 @ 8:41 PM

    Okay, not enough is known about a replica packet… I will keep trying though.

  38. Jon002 February 5, 2015 @ 9:32 PM

    Alright, dunno how big this is (and I’m pretty sure people may have done this before) but I have made it so the server create one packet dynamically! I’m continuing to work on implementing this for more packets… Stay tuned!

    -Jon002

    • Knightoffaith February 5, 2015 @ 9:56 PM

      Could you give a basic description of how you did that?

    • Jon002 February 5, 2015 @ 10:16 PM

      Sure! Basically, I started by reviewed RakNet’s Packet documentation. What I used was a RakNet::Bitstream in order to write the data into the packet. It’s very rough, and maybe a bit crude, but it works (I will refine this stuff later). Here is what I wrote for the Auth Init packet:

      void SendInitPacket(RakPeerInterface *rakServer, const SystemAddress& systemAddress) {
	MessageID typeId = ID_USER_PACKET_ENUM; // The ID of the packet
	ushort connectionType = 0; // The connection type
	ulong internalPacketId = 0; // This tells what the packet will contain
	ulong versionId = 171022; // The game version
	ulong unknown2 = 147; // Dunno what this is...
	ulong remoteConnectionType = 1;
	uchar processId[4] = { 0x14, 0x10, 0x00, 0x00 };
	uchar unknown3[2] = { 0xff, 0xff };
	string ipString = "172.24.8.139.un i = 15.„–<.„–Send(&bitStream, SYSTEM_PRIORITY, RELIABLE_ORDERED, 0, systemAddress, false);
}

      Right now I am working on the login success packets. Basically, I am initializing each value, and then allowing any changed values to be arguments of functions (I am using structs as well… Makes it a little easier to organize).

      • Jon002 February 5, 2015 @ 10:18 PM

        Ugg… It cut me off! That last part should be:

        WriteStringToBitStream(ipString.c_str(), 33, &bitStream);

rakServer->Send(&bitStream, SYSTEM_PRIORITY, RELIABLE_ORDERED, 0, systemAddress, false);

        Also, the WriteStringToBitStream function is:

        void WriteStringToBitStream(const char *myString, int maxChars, RakNet::BitStream *output) {
	stringCompressor->EncodeString(myString, maxChars, output);
}

      • Jon002 February 5, 2015 @ 10:20 PM

        I really am not liking this code attribute.

        The IPString should be “172.24.8.139.un i = 15.„–<.„–<.Àˆ".
        After the IPString, it should be

        RakNet::BitStream bitStream;

	CreatePacketHeader(ID_USER_PACKET_ENUM, 0, 0, &bitStream);
	bitStream.Write(versionId);
	bitStream.Write(unknown2);
	bitStream.Write(remoteConnectionType);
	bitStream.Write(processId);
	bitStream.Write(unknown3);
	WriteStringToBitStream(ipString.c_str(), 33, &bitStream);

	rakServer->Send(&bitStream, SYSTEM_PRIORITY, RELIABLE_ORDERED, 0, systemAddress, false);

    I think we are short for the final Server of LUNI…

    I have a problem how can I change my yes my Profile picture…

  40. CDFalcon February 6, 2015 @ 7:15 AM

    I have noticed that all packets start with 5304… Is this significant?

  41. CDFalcon February 6, 2015 @ 7:41 AM

    Okay, I and I feel like an idot asking this but… What does LOT mean 😉

  42. ClutchPowers861 February 6, 2015 @ 7:42 AM

    Questions.
    1. Would there be any copyright issues with LEGO, or would the game being free make things okay?
    2. Will the game be 100% working including public servers? If so, how much would it cost, when would it be working, and would there be a UK server?
    3. If I donate money for the public server, and it ends up not happening, will my money be refunded?
    4. When the game is complete, will we be able to create our own users? I’m guessing recovering our old minifigs is impossible, right?

    You’re super awesome for doing this by the way. If you can truly bring back LEGO Universe, I’d donate all the money I could and play it every day.

    • mater06 February 6, 2015 @ 7:54 AM

      1. No, LEGO knows about the server, and let’s us continue as long as we keeereee server free.

      2. No, it most likely will never be ‘completely’ but we may get to a point that is ‘player’s

      3. No, probably not. It is a donation not an subscription. Only donate if you want to.

      4. Char creation will be possible, (I think the devs are working on that,) 😉 but in answer to you other question: No, you won’t be able to play your old minifigs. 🙁

      Hope this helps out 😀

  43. CDFalcon February 6, 2015 @ 8:11 AM

    Where are the replica packets in the server(for comparison)

    • Jon002 February 6, 2015 @ 3:47 PM

      Most of the packets that begin with 27 and 24 are ReplicaManager packets. You can also use MessageIdentifiers.h in the RakNet 3.25 source to see what the packet IDs are (you will need to turn the enum decimals into hex code first though)

    Hey, MrDialga300?

    Do you want to find a separate way of contact so we can work together in Gamebryo?

    Or just talk here? I am currently developing as well!

  45. slapjralt233 February 6, 2015 @ 3:20 PM

    So what will be completed for version 0.6 for the LUNI Server/Client?

  46. slapjralt233 February 6, 2015 @ 3:20 PM

    I really hope we can get to make characters and play as them soon.

  47. Chris February 6, 2015 @ 5:14 PM

    Hey, TimTech I just wanna ask what will be added when the 0.6 update comes out. Thanks!

    • Timtech February 6, 2015 @ 6:13 PM

      I don’t know… a 0.6 release is not scheduled, but hopefully it will not require Visual Studio thanks to Jon’s successful compilation of 0.5’s source.

  48. AceSoren February 7, 2015 @ 2:07 AM

    What a save my dear friend. When I saw that it had shut down, my brother and I were like “what?” of course we couldn’t believe it. there is one thing that has been nagging at me for a while now. when I downloaded both nexus clients, they say that it cannot be opened according to Windows Explorer, unexpected end of archive for WinRar [and the fact that I simply cannot extract them], and 7 zip says it cannot open these zip folders as archives. Please find a solution, as I have been a fan of Lego Universe. if you want to talk to me via email, please use sigmasaber@gmail.com.

  49. Tokki43 February 7, 2015 @ 6:59 AM

    Now i’m downloading the Nexus 2 recommended client.
    Start your game at lvl 1 like the original one? can i play Online for the moment or only offline? can i create my own character etc?
    thank you! And GREAT job team!!!

  50. Mr Piano February 7, 2015 @ 9:43 AM

    Hi guys, just wanna say: Great job!
    There is no other Team, who has equal progress than you.
    Hope there will be mobs in near future.
