Hello, :)

Does Ork Framework support Forge Networking?
It would be great if it did,or if there's a plugin to connect the two frameworks(If possible).

  • I must second this... to my understanding then Forge is a superior networking tool over both Bolt and Unet :)
  • No, ORK doesn't support Forge (or any other networking solution) and there's no plugin that I know of that connects them.

    You'd either have to add that to the gameplay code yourself or use another product like Makinom or PlayMaker to connect ORK to Forge.
    Please consider rating/reviewing my products on the Asset Store (hopefully positively), as that helps tremendously with getting found.

  • Hehe you got Unet for Makinom, now get Forge in there too ;) Makinom + Ork = Happy marriage :D
  • 3rd party products will never be part of ORK or Makinom. Also, adding something as complex as mutliplayer (e.g. Forge) isn't really possible as a plugin - this will always require changes in the gameplay source code.

  • yeah ork dosent need to be coded for networking.. you can as gil said use things like playmaker or makinom to bring the 2 together best would be to use unet since its more intuitive then anything 3rd party software... people might not think it is but it is. They took the basic concept of how unreal engine does there networking an made a system similar to that. Which unreal engines networking is great.. now that makinom has unet integration making a mmo with ork is now possible just a matter of feeding your variables that need to be seen across the network an as well as using makinom to fire certain events i.e. boss fights ect. ork would just run in the back ground as the game engine to run everything... anything is possible as long as your willing to learn the work flow on how it works. but basic knowledge will do you good as wells o best to read up on how unet works and how makinom works with unet to bring it all together.. maybe in the feature when i get bored ill make a simple tut on it but for now im to busy with work an side projects ...
