CryENGINE3 for Project TGO



Frankfurt a. M. (Germany) / Seoul (South-Korea), October 29th 2009 - OnNet Co. Ltd. and Crytek GmbH (“Crytek”) announced today that ‘Project TGO’ will be developed with CryENGINE® 3, the latest game engine from Crytek. Hence, CEO Sungju Hong (OnNet Co. Ltd.) and CEO Youngmok Park (Crytek Korea Ltd.) exchanged the contract for the license of CryENGINE® 3 at the Crytek office and agreed their full cooperation for the project.

In the past, OnNet Co. Ltd. developed and published the critically acclaimed Golf-MMOG ‘Shot online’. In line with the development of their latest project, Jaesun Kim, the director of OnNet, stated: “Our next online golf game ’Project TGO’ is based on the experience and the knowledge from ‘Shot online’. With the help of the newest CryENGINE® 3 technology we will deliver the most realistic physics with natural background and highly detailed graphics within our game. In order to reach the best results within the game we are focusing on a very strong cooperation between Crytek and OnNet.”

OnNet plans to start its service in 2010 but has not released any concept or special features yet so that they sparked the curiosity within the industry. OnNet USA will be in charge of the Producing and Business Development for ‘Project TGO’ while the game and graphics development will be led by their offices in Korea and China with some of the original developers of ‘Shot online’. With this new international organization OnNet is targeting a global market.

Youngmok Park, Managing Director of Crytek Korea Ltd. declared: “CryENGINE 3 is undoubtedly the best choice for ‘Project TGO’. Our latest all-in-one game development solution allows the team to develop more content in less time and primarily at less risk. I am convinced that OnNet’s latest project will look even better and more realistic than its former games. Our cooperation will lift golf games to a whole new level and make them even more attractive to the gamers. We’re really looking forward to the result.”

Ein Danke für den Hinweis geht an unser Community-Mitglied "chicken".

Server Hardware Austausch



Hallo liebe Community,

einige haben es sicher schon im Forum gelesen. Wir werden die Server-Hardware auf dem u.a. diese Webseite hier gehostet ist austauschen. Die neue Hardware wird leistungsstärker sein um u.a. auch neuen Projekten von "4thDimension Networking (tm)" standhalten zu können.

Das heisst, dass wir eine Downtime haben werden. Wir versuchen diese so kurz wie möglich zu halten. So ca. 1-3 Stunden werden wir aber Offline sein.

Geplanter START-Zeitpunkt der Umstellung: Update abgeschlossen - Leider habe ich im Stress wohl das alte Backup vom 23.10.2009 eingespielt... SORRY! Man könnte zwar das Backup von gestern Abend einbinden (gemacht habe ich natürlich eins) ABER dann müsste man die Seite bis heute Abend Offline nehmen (könnte das erst von Zuhause aus machen, nach der Arbeit)... wäre auch "unpraktisch".

Der neue Server wird Windows 2008 und nicht mehr Linux sein. Die 2008'er Server von MS laufen so gut (sieht man an unserem Fileserver), dass ich umstellen will. Die Zeiten in denen lediglich Linux Server stabil laufen ist vorbei. Von einem Windows Server habe ich mehr, da ich dort auch noch andere Dinge (z.B. Spieleserver) einfacher drauf laufen lassen kann, als auf einem Linux Server.

Hinweis: Da sich die IP-Adresse des Servers ändert, werden folglich die DNS-Einträge angepasst. Das heisst, es kann bis zu 24 Stunden dauern, bis alle wieder die Seite sehen (die neue IP muss sich zunächst über die Welt replizieren). Es kann vorkommen, dass jemand schon die Seite vom neuem Server sieht aber jemand anderes noch die Offline-Seite (des alten Servers). Einfach etwas Geduld haben.

Euer Crysis-HQ Team
