dbawel Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Hey BJS devs and others who visit this form! Myself and my development partner (also bussiness partner) Louis Gurtowski will be attending GDC the week of March 2-6 in San Fran. We have left the 4th and 5th open to hopefully schedule a gathering of people(only one of these days - perhaps one evening?), with those of you whom often communicate on this forum, but would most likely benefit from an actual meeting of persona somewhere in or around the convention. I and my bussiness partner represent the control of develoment within our company, however, we're more interested in mostly a social event in exchange of ideas from all persons within a social gathering. We're talking one on one here - no presentations. I sincerely hope that you loosers who call themsrlves developers - (this is entirely a joke to hopefully grab a plank amout of interest in organizing such an event.) And if you missed the "Plank" joke, then you won't likely be attending due to the delta(s) within your own reality. But for those of you who would like to meet, I firmly believe it can greatly benefit our community, and much can come forth from this exchange. Any responses and ideas brought forth here on this thread are eagerly welcome - and if I receive few or none, then I'll assume what the level of dedication to this new framework is meeger at best!Just joking, this community and forum is the best. So if ANY of you out there are attending GDC this year, please post here - I hope to build a list. Also, we're welcoming any ideas as to where we might meet and when we might meet - as own our hotel is not so close to the convention center. OH - and wherever we meet - must serve alcohol, or let us bring our own - or it's all a mute point (in my opinion.) Let's return with some embarrssing pics - or at least some selfies with other developers. POST,POST,POST!!!! here v 2 weeks left!

iiceman Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Having a glass of whisky together while skyping... that probably lacks some of the atmosphere that it is suppoed to have (I have a skype account, but hardly use it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerome Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Sorry for the digression about Skype communication, but did you know (jerome' pedantic speech ) that HTML5 API provides something called WebRTC ?WebRTC is for Web Real Time Communication. This means your browser can natively capture video/sound, compress them and send them to another browser which will decompress and render them. This bidirectional !More : both connected browsers exchange the streamed data directly, from peer to peer. No need for a server !Well, a server is still needed to establish the connection and the session between the client peers, but then the stream flows just between browsers. And it can deal with almost all firewalls, web proxies or NAT... all those things IPS or sysadmins put on your way and you don't even know So, this is really a brand new huge feature, because it's genuine HTML5 only. You can test it here : https://meet.jit.si/Or here (french universities network consortium) : https://rendez-vous.renater.fr/ For now only Chrome implements WebRTC AFAIK, so...well, Chrome/Chromium guys Maybe some days, we will integrate this in BJS as it's only pure HTML5.I imagine we could use shaders to add on the fly some 3D perspective inside a video call Or a 3D game with avatars having some real time video faces Dad72 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbawel Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 I hear a challenge. Come on, let's make something happen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameMonetize Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I suggest not using WebRTC actually. Microsoft, Mozilla and Google are working on oRTC which will be far easier to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerome Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 What is oRTC ?I just know WebRTC because it's a part of HTML5 API (still draft at W3C) . I know FF implements it in its near-to come release too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCPalmer Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Have a good time & get what you going are there for. I Am sure this extra socializing was just a bonus. This was kind of a long shot, given I only see 5 self identified North American posters. I do most of my skills maintenance via on-line scavenge, & head banging. My threshold for travel limited to Toronto, NYC, Montreal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbawel Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 If there is a change of heart or circumstance, We will be there. So if some thread of time finds you at GDC this year, we'll be there with open ideas and and open bar. Just let ust know you plan to be with us. Cheer, DBawel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
