What sort of capabilities will be available to moderators?
Perhaps tagging vehicles to their respective owner for GTA cases?

I'm not a moderator but I am curious to better understand the features renVis has to offer.

Thus far, the renVis look excellent!

You can see who drives what vehicle etc.

But it is an passive application, you have no way to interact with the real game from the replay/live stream

What I meant to suggest wasn't something that interacted with the game, but rather the client.
Perhaps only placing a label on the vehicle in the client stating who purchased it?
Something to help Moderators assist in GTA situations.

Or can this be done externally?

The information who purchased a vehicle is not available, unfortnatually.

brenbot displays who purchased a vehicle. If you're using a custom bot it's probably not too difficult to add since I think it print who purchases a vehicle into the FDS now as well.

I think this should be no problem if renVis reads the renlogfiles too...

When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter then "Yes"

this is all nice and dandy but cpu usuage is at the heart of the matter...

having said that, gamelog was already a hog this will make it worse.

good for small games under 16 players, but anything over that and you are looking at a big performance hit.

Be sure to put your server on a dual cpu, 1 for the game, and 1 for all the whip cream with cherry on top fds stuff thats been coming out.

Thanks for input!
It would be interesting to see renVis in action with or without it anyways.
I was just curious to know some of the features renVis will present or be capable of.
Keep us posted Tell Me!

Doesn't the renFDS not support multithreading/dual CPUs?

However it might be a good idea for the future. For now, my renVis TODO list is still quite filled. Wink

Currently I am working on displaying the hitpoint/armour status

I got a question: if renVis will allowe us to watch a game, shuldn't it make the game laggy? like posting it in a and watch the game website as you mentiond before, many people could watch it.

Not that much. Enabling renVis live-replays on the same machine as the game server wont speed the game up; but it causes much less traffic than a normal player.

However, there is no need to run the replay / www server on the same server. In any way; the live feature is not implemented yet, we will have to wait and see what the first practical experiments will reveal ...

server owners can abbuse their power all they want. It is after all, THEIR server. You don't have to play in it.

The x71 after Mina's name is as original as pepsi. I should have copyrighted that, tbh.

If you wanna seperate the nick: it's Minax_71, not Mina_x71. And I agree that it is not very original. Millions of people were born at that year; for example me Listen

PS: I am using the nickname in the internet since Diablo I came out. Is your "copyright" as old as that Wink

Question: will it only work for dedicated servers? Cause if you play a CW and someone can put this working on his private server, then he might get a hell of an advantage (like a clan member reading what's happening in TS)...

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

It only works on SSAOW which is setup to create gamelog files.
