Parlo - secure communication for .NET

18th December 2023

Parlo now has a Docker container that showcases how to implement a secure login protocol using Parlo.
Hopefully some of you might find it useful! If you just build it as a regular VS project it’ll also produce a standalone app.

Download The Sims Online now, before it's too late!

Yesterday I started looking for versions of The Sims Online that still remain, well, online, because I wanted to show off my progress with Project Dollhouse to my colleagues at EA. It took me a while but I found one. EA themselves hosted the client for a n*snip*

After God knows how many hours of faffing about, I finally have a working city renderer!
I suspect the texture mapping's off, and there's no real camera to speak of yet, but it works! And Lord allmighty does it look good.

Parlo - secure communication for .NET

24th August 2023

I released a quick update yesterday, version 1.1.0
The only difference is that it is also explicitly compiled for .NET (Core) 6.0, so you should be able to use it in those projects if you need to.
.NET Standard 2.1 *should* be compatible with .NET 6.0, b*snip*

Ehhh. Its asynchronous model seems like it was added as an afterthought and designed by committee. But the rest of the language is very kosher. Very similar to C#.

Yeah, except you should save them as binary data as that makes them faster to work with.

If this is about Blitz3D, it’s open source now so you can make it do whatever the hell you want! :D
