Presentation Summary
At games night, we will be presenting the NetDog engine - a robust and flexible networking engine for creating large, high performance worlds. Netdog is built on our patent-pending load distribution tools, and has an intuitive interface that provides robust high-level tools, yet is customizable to meet the needs of your game.
Our presentation will provide an overview of Netdog’s technology, then we will give a brief demonstration of the technology – demonstrating Netdog’s ease of integration by showing an integration with the Irrlicht graphics engine, then we will show how large networks can be created by adding large numbers of users to different demonstrations, and finally, we will illustrate Netdog’s flexible easy-to-use interface by showcasing its developer tools.
