Can a native(c++) client and a web(JavaScript) client enter one room?

Zaur

Two native clients can enter the room "test_room". Two web clients also see each other in this room.
But the native client and the web can not see each other's friends. Why is that?

Hi @Zaur.

Please check our matchmaking checklist at https://doc.photonengine.com/en-us/realtime/current/reference/matchmaking-and-lobby.

Thanks for the answer.

I set the region in the application settings: http://take.ms/GgAa6
But all the same I continue to receive an error: http://take.ms/4Ho7a.

I solved this problem. In the code it is necessary to expose region "ru"!
Thanks.

Hi @Zaur,

Thank you for choosing Photon!

Do you mean the JavaScript SDK does not have all regions by default and "ru" as an example is missing?
If so share with us here how you added it?
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi @JohnTube,
1. I write region "ru;ru" in application settings page: http://take.ms/GgAa6
2. In JS connecting to photon with method: client.connectToRegionMaster('ru');
3. In C++: client.selectRegion("ru"); before calling client.connect(...)

@Zaur:

before calling client.connect(...)

What you do is not how selectRegion() is supposed to be used and produces undefined behavior.
Please see the API-reference of Client::selectRegion() at http://doc-api.photonengine.com/en/cpp/current/html/.
demo_loadBalancing inside the C++ client SDKs contains example code for this feature.
