Syncker Demo

Features#

Automatic synchronization of global water (ObjectWaterGlobal), cloud layers (ObjectCloudLayer), world light sources (LightWorld), and particle systems (ObjectParticles).
Synchronization of dynamic objects moving along the trajectories set by splines (vessel, boats, aircrafts).
Behavior of static nodes (buoys), that have their position determined by the ObjectWaterGlobal. These nodes are not synchronized, but their positions are adjusted indirectly via global water (ObjectWaterGlobal) synchronization.
Synchronization of child nodes in the NodeReference hierarchy (helicopter rotors).
Creation of objects and enabling physical interactions for them.
Setting individual logic and controls for each slave.
Setting cameras on slaves to target different objects.
Changing a slave's logic.
Various addressing modes: Unicast, Multicast, Broadcast.
Animating objects based on the current time if their position can be pre-defined to optimize network data transfer.
Making Syncker a network library.

As you run the demo, you'll see the Syncker Configurator window.

Addressing method	Selection of the addressing mode.
Master UDP Port	UDP port to be used for message exchange between the Master and Slaves.
Demo	A scene demonstrating a certain aspect of the Syncker Plugin. As soon as you select a scene from the dropdown list, its brief description is displayed below.

Run Master	Run the current instance as Master.
Run Slave	Run the current instance as Slave.
View	Define the position of the image rendered by the current instance in the overall panorama.

When the required number of instances has been run, the scene opens and the information about the demo is displayed in the Master instance.
