Thats what I was thinking, you would need PHP or something similar to be
able to write to the hard drive of the server using ISAPI.

Well CP,

I will be the first to say I think when you came to AW you were a complete
idiot....

But I would also be the first to say that I have been highly impressed by
how much you have matured in the last few months to become who you are now,
quite impressive. It is a shame you are now departing your citizenship.

Give it a few months, you have been spending rather alot of time in AW and
it has quite probably affected your school work, as it has done with a lot
of people... Good luck getting it back on track.

The voice chat rights will be handled similar to the world rights from what
is thought so far and what I have picked up... Hence if bandwidth is a prob
you could just remove peoples ability to use it.

Dont be a twit... that would mean giving away everyones IP, they go though
the server.

The VoIP (at least in the beta that I have) works similar to a server side
mixing system.

A 2 way stream is established to the server using the standard connection
- Each microphone sends an outgoing stream to the server
- Each client sends its 'mute' list to the server
- Each client sends its codec idc to the server

The server then takes each of these syncronous feeds and mixes them on a
'per client' basis, filtering out any muted persons from the relevant client
streams, the server then sends these individual streams back. The standard
for broadband is 4.3kb/s on the version I have, way too much to have 30
different streams all aimed at once IP address stream each time... you would
need everyone on T3!

As for your napster thing... I think you will find that all the data on them
may be being sent from mutliple sources, but is binary idential from all
these sources, in the case of AW these sources are very different in each
case. It is also required as the different forms of codec compression need
to be set server side so the client can decode it...

Granted, I havent seen the 4.0 implimentation of it first hand but I know
the general gist... The AW programmers have got it right in this case, I am
highly impressed at the work chris has done, infact its jaw dropping.

[View Quote] I have the Active Worlds voice chat that the core alpha team were given.
Its a very nice tool, very small and compact, pleanty of features and an
excellent infact, it should be even better when intregrated into the
browser.

There is a 'whisper' mode but the main type is confrence.

VoIP has been talked about in public many, many times... Everyone knows it
exists, and I have given no important technical specs on it except that to
say it is a very very good program.

Yer know... the easiest way to do this would be to use a new compression /
encryption method one way.... and have only the browser know the decrypt
method...

Its for kids, turn it off under performance settings.

You can uninstall it using your XP installation disk and add and remove
components... However its mainly build into the XP and .NET framework, its
there simply to give different people a choice, which in my opinion is a
good thing, even if i think it should not be enabled as default.

The windows code is very advanced, once you dissable something different
subroutines take over that draw things normally etc (see
windows_2000_source_code.zip).

Arnt TRUE and FALSE defined in MFC, in which case using stdafx would be
required... with the standard

#define TRUE 1
#define FALSE 0

Whereas C++ uses proper evaluation of the terms 'true' and 'false' where

#define true !0
#define false 0

?

Or that could just be VC++ talking.

I was always under the distinct impression that the C++ rules of engagement
so to speak defined that the actual types types true and false meant 'value
present' or 'value not present' for false. While true is 1 for maths
operations etc, in logic operations it is defined as 'anything not zero' so
to speak.

if (1)
printf("The result is true\n");
else
printf("The result is false\n");
