Hello

I'm a French devoloppeur and this is my first steep whith Photon

After read the tutorial I decide to use Photon LoadBalancing.

The First thing i have to do is to implement an Operation on the master server to return some information from the database to the client.
After I have to implement a personnal logic for create and joinning game (it's a poker poker game, so the client join a game with a particular cave and a new game is create when there's no place in the existing). And finally implement the game logic in the game server.

Is the good way is to extents the load balancing in a new projet or to modifiy the exiting project.

Best regards

    Hey, welcome to Photon! :)

    I would extend loadbalancing in a new project, then you have a clean separation between "our" code and "your" code, and it easier to update to new Photon versions later on.

    Ok I have extends LoadBalancing this way 
    namespace PokerLoadBalancing.MasterServer
{
    class MasterApplication : Photon.LoadBalancing.MasterServer.MasterApplication
    {
        #region Constants and Fields

        /// <summary>
        ///   An <see cref = "ILog" /> instance used to log messages to the log4net framework.
        /// </summary>
        private static readonly ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);

        #endregion

        #region Methods

        protected override PeerBase CreatePeer(InitRequest initRequest)
        {
            if (this.IsGameServerPeer(initRequest))
            {
                if (log.IsDebugEnabled)
                {
                    log.DebugFormat("Received init request from game server");
                }
                
                return new Photon.LoadBalancing.MasterServer.GameServer.IncomingGameServerPeer(initRequest, this);
            }

            if (this.LocalNodeId == this.MasterNodeId)
            {
                if (log.IsDebugEnabled)
                {
                    log.DebugFormat("Received init request from game client on leader node");
                }

                return new PokerMasterClientPeer(initRequest, this.DefaultApplication);
            }

            if (log.IsDebugEnabled)
            {
                log.DebugFormat("Received init request from game client on slave node");
            }

            return new RedirectedClientPeer(initRequest.Protocol, initRequest.PhotonPeer);
        }

        #endregion
    }
}

    and implement a PokerMasterClientPeer for handeling the operations I need
    But when I try to run it with my client it don't work, I have nothing in the log.
    My configuration file for this is 
    <Applications Default="Master">		
			<Application
				Name="Master"
				BaseDirectory="LoadBalancing\Master"
				Assembly="PokerLoadBalancing"
				Type="PokerLoadBalancing.MasterServer.MasterApplication"
				ForceAutoRestart="true"
				WatchFiles="dll;config"
				ExcludeFiles="log4net.config"
				>
			</Application>
    and I'm sure the client work because when I run the defaut loadBalancing application there's what I expect in the log's 
    2014-07-19 10:24:00,823 [11] DEBUG Photon.LoadBalancing.MasterServer.MasterApplication [(null)] - Received init request from game client on leader node


2014-07-19 10:24:00,969 [10] DEBUG Photon.LoadBalancing.MasterServer.MasterClientPeer [(null)] - OnOperationRequest: pid=0, op=199
    Do I miss something I have to implement in my server?

    Ok I have found why my application is stop it was because I have no PokerLoadBalancing.dll.config.
    So this matter is solve but I still have no log of the CreatePeer methode I have override.
    In my log I have 
    2014-07-21 11:10:16,423 [12] DEBUG Photon.LoadBalancing.MasterServer.MasterClientPeer [(null)] - OnOperationRequest: pid=0, op=230

2014-07-21 11:10:16,457 [11] DEBUG Photon.LoadBalancing.MasterServer.MasterClientPeer [(null)] - Joined lobby: , 0
    When I play 
    this.connectToMaster(this.appId, "1.0", android_id
    in my client

    I have nothing in my log when I play 
    public boolean opPlayerLogin()
    {



        PokerPlayer player=this.getPlayer();
        if (this.loadBalancingPeer.getDebugOut().atLeast(DebugLevel.INFO))
        {
            this.loadBalancingPeer.getListener().debugReturn(DebugLevel.INFO, "OpJoinRoom()");
        }

        if (player.getLoginMode().getId()==0||(player.getLoginId()==null)||player.getLoginId().length()==0)
        {
            this.loadBalancingPeer.getListener().debugReturn(DebugLevel.INFO, "LoginInvalide");
            return false;
        }
        TypedHashMap<Byte, Object> op = new TypedHashMap<Byte, Object>(Byte.class, Object.class);

        op.put(PokerParameterCode.LoginId,player.getLoginId());
        op.put(PokerParameterCode.LoginMode, player.getLoginMode().getId());
        return this.loadBalancingPeer.opCustom(OperationCode.Login, op, true);
    }


    I expected to have Received init request from game client on leader node when I play connectToMaster don't understand why I have'nt

    Hey,

    for the logs:
    - please make sure that you copy the "log4net.config" and "log4net.dll" into your output directory
    - check the log4net.config: is the log level set to "DEBUG" for the classes from which you expect some logging?

    More info on log configuration here:

    Thank Nicole I add 
    <logger name="PokerLoadBalancing.MasterServer" additivity="false">
		<level value="DEBUG" />
		<appender-ref ref="LogFileAppender" />
	</logger>
    In log4net.config and now it's OK

    Hello

    Ok so my connection with the server work, I handle properly my custum op and interface with my data base.

    Now I need to change the rules for selecting a room (in my poker app you chose a bind and your automatic go to a room with the good bind).

    I see that ExecuteOperation on AppLobby is virtual, it's look good so I do my own implentation.

    The matter is that the AppLobby is access by 
    this.Application.LobbyFactory.GetOrCreateAppLobby(joinPokerGameRequest.LobbyName, (AppLobbyType)joinPokerGameRequest.LobbyType, out lobby))

    Do I need to extends ApplicationGame, LobbyFactory and may be other or is there a better way?

    Best regards
