Discussion L2Acp Concept

[Elfo]

Hey guys,

 

So about a year ago I started making a L2ACP with the intention of selling it.

However due to many reasons (including experience at the time) i discontinued it and shared it for free.

 

One of the main reasons why ACPs don't really work for is because of the fact that the player needs to be offline for them to work, as you are editing the database with queries.

 

So in this concept preview i wanna show you an alternative to that.

In the video below you will see that all the actions are real time, without restrictions.

 

The data is coming back from the gameserver itself and not a database.

 

How is this done? The gameserver is also running a baby RESTful API.

The site is communicating with the webserver and not with the database as any other ACP.

The webserver then parses the request and validates it. If everything is ok it responds to the site.

 

 

What this means is that EVERY action can now happen real time no matter if the user is in or not.

That makes for great user experience. It also allows us to get advantages of many other features.

 

I'd like to know what you think and feel free to propose features that you might wanna see.

I won't talk about money or payment models. I wanna make a cool product first and I need your opinions.

 

 

Test server is now up.

 

You can check the site on http://l2acp.com/

If you want to log in the server then set the ip on your ini to be 217.182.71.169

 

(The ACP Management and Server Management) buttons in the admin area are placeholders for now.

 

Every account will have 100 donate points to spend. If you need admin access or more donate points let me know.

Updates

 

One of the main reasons the site will be on my end is updates. Every update cycle you will be able to just replace a jar file and the whole system will be updated.

All the updates are FREE no matter the features added (And i can tell you i have some very nice ones in mind http://i.imgur.com/Ipl2NYY.png)

 

 

Custom requests

 

In case of a custom request you need to provide a full description of the feature and i will give you a quote and an estimate for this.

 

 

Please feel free to ask any questions.

I believe there are security / performance concerns regarding this concept, interfacing a web application and a live gameserver together doesn't seem like a good idea. At least with the databases (the offline work) everything was sandboxed and secure, there was no intermediate interface in between the server and the web app.

 

Now I believe this is too much for L2, you're talking about bot patterns and stuff whereas we still haven't find a way to natively detect them from within the gameserver, what ensures you that breaking the gameserver's sandbox design and interfacing it with a web-app will unlock the third eye of gameserver "lets say"

This is actually useless,imo. As a player i would not use it, either as an admin i would not involve this in my server. In the other hand, the thing that would be long way better, and more useful is an admin panel working like this. So even if you don't have access in the game, u can manage things :)

Good point actually. Not the useless bit, the admin panel bit.

1st, good job elfo.

 

This package can be very interesting and usefull since it's working in real time. I'm just looking the posts and im wondering if they understood what they can do with this in their hands.

Its not only the enchant boys ...

You can manage your own usefull action in real time (if you dont like the enchant case just forget it) ...

 

I will not say anything else , just use ur fucking mind

Yeah enchanting is just an example. It could be set name or set title, Augment or even kick and jail.

It can be server restart, announce text, pm a char. Anything.

 

I also had a discussion with Sweets and i really liked the way he sees it.

Added several features

 

[Sinister Smile]

Good work Elfo, btw is it possible to add:
- Pack with items like ( Armor +10, Weapon +16 ), ( Jewerly set ++ ) and etc.

- Send items to other player. For example you enter the name of the user and then you get list with the items that you can send to him. Like a mail ..

Update

 

Added several features

 

 

better maybe parse a json/xml rather than reading from dumb sql. Even better to be able to edit these lists with packages/categories/etc from the admin panel
