Overview
In collaboration with Mike/M2H we’ve been developing a multiplayer version of the official Unity demo “3rd Person MMO Controller”. This demo now shows the power of Unity AND Photon. The multiplayer is implemented using the new Photon Unity Networking plugin.

What’s the name of the music track?

Asset store says I need Unity 3.4.1 to download the demo - but 3.4.1 is not yet publicly available.

hmm. yes the asset stores says unity 3.4.1 required… can’t download.

6

We re-uploaded with the 3.4 final :#.

7

Still looks to be requiring 3.4.1 on the asset store. Is there a time lag for the update to take effect?

It has been resubmitted, but not yet approved by the asset store team.

We do now have a 10 minute video showing you how you could add multiplayer to the original Viking demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8S-xSsB9hg&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

Until approval you can use this temporary download link:
not necessary anymore - live in asset store

I downloaded the link you posted but I got the following errors:

Assets/Photon Unity Networking/Plugins/PhotonNetwork/NetworkingPeer.cs(19,31): error CS0433: The imported type `ExitGames.Client.Photon.PhotonPeer’ is defined multiple times
Assets\Plugins\PhotonUnity3D.dll (Location of the symbol related to previous error)

using Unity 3.4.0f5

Did you also import the Photon unity package?
The viking demo already includes PUN, so downloading that will cause these errors.

13

The updated package is live on the asset store, please download it from there :).

14

Hm…not for me . Still showing the need for 3.4.1.

I was talking about the asset store inside unity, but never mind, it’s there now .

Hi Leepo!

I didn’t import the PUN files but, for some reason, when I reimported everything and it just worked! Who knows…

The only problem is that now I can’t connect to the server! When I hit Play in the Editor, the server stops and Unity returns an connection error.

Did anyone experience that as well or am I missing something? I’m using the server downloaded from the Photon site, since I’m on a 64-bit Windows and the server that comes with the Viking demo is x86.

19

The websites server is not compatible with PUN. Please use the bundled XP version, this will work on almost any windows version. I think you will be able to get a 64bit build for your specific OS if you request it. For this first launch XP was chosen as target as that’ll ensure it’ll run on any server.

It seems there is IP 127.0.0.11 configured in MainMenuVik.cs. change this to 127.0.0.1.
