Synchronizing objects over the network
Hey!
I'm working with Unity and zigfu drivers (Kinect), and I'm having one problem now... First of all I need to know if it's possible to use the network capabilities of Unity with zigfu drivers. For my work (academic research) I want to control an avatar through the network. I control the avatar in my computer and I want to see it move in another computer. Supposedly, the main scenario allows the user to see other avatars moving. For now I can't syncronize the animation of the avatar. I can see the animation in my pc, but in the other i can't.
I'm a little bit lost here, and I need help with this...
If someone knows how to do this, please help me!
Congrats,
Paula
You need a network view component. This is the component used to stream the positions and transformations of objects over a network, and it does animations too.
Hey!
Thank you luckruns0ut for your reply! =) I think that I have done that already... But anyway, I will describe what I've done.
-I've the example from zigfu (the avatar) that is a prefab. I've attached to this prefab the network view component and instantiated the object in the nertwork:
Network.Instantiate(player, transform.position, transform.rotation, 0);
I have tried to synchronize animation this way, but that doesn't work... After doing some research, I've read that maybe I should assign the rigidbody component to the player prefab. So I did, and assigned the network component to the rigidbody. And still doesn't work...
So I don't know what I'm really doing wrong here...
The image shows how I've done so far.
Thanks!
After weeks of erros and search, I finally solved the problem... I've changed the framework to the OpenNI Unity Toolkit and the network and synchronization is working!
@p.margarida hi,can u plz explain me how u have solved the synchronizing of objects in network.I too tried using network view component and instantiate the object bit some networking issues make me away from synchronization of objects
How you solve problem with networking ?
