Chapter 206 Customized Tianba Engine
What is the concept of an FPS game without plug-ins?
To use a more vivid metaphor, it is probably equivalent to "there is a fair-skinned, beautiful and long-legged wife in the wife cake".
What? This is impossible?
It can’t be right! How can an FPS game not have plug-ins? This sentence was so explosive that anyone would roll their eyes.
But at this moment, when Chen Ba and Kadir suddenly talked about this topic, neither of them thought it was a joke.
Quite the opposite.
Both of them know that this is very likely to be true, and it can really put an end to all forms of FPS plug-in scripts and cheating.
The principle of implementation?
Black technology does not require principles. Chen Ba cannot understand the long string of codes of Tianba engine, let alone other outsiders.
To put it bluntly, games developed using the Tianba engine have formed a kind of "isolation" from other games and are not the same product.
"For example, FPS games developed using other engines are all Android software, then FPS games developed using Tianba engine are IOS."
Kadir raised his eyebrows and said: "This kind of isolation makes it difficult for existing computer tampering and intrusion plans to work on this game."
These two are not the same thing!
Since it's not a gadget, then why do you think that the plug-in script you wrote will be effective in the game? Why, you didn’t know beforehand that the plug-in software you wrote can be cross-platform and cross-language?
This foreigner has such keen observation skills...
Chen Ba was a little surprised. He didn't expect to hear the most fair evaluation of the Tianba engine from Kadir, a foreigner.
That’s right!
Kadir used Android and IOS to describe why games developed by Tianba Engine can prevent plug-ins and various scripts. This metaphor is quite vivid.
But he was wrong about one thing.
That is the game developed by Tianba Engine. Compared with other games, the actual gap is far greater than Android compared with IOS.
"You are right. From this perspective, FPS games developed using the Tianba engine can indeed solve a large part of the game environment where cheats are rampant and scripts are rampant."
Chen Ba first confirmed Kadir's guess, then spread his hands and said, "But what does this have to do with me? Tianba Engine is an open software, and anyone can pay to use it."
Tianba engines are not expensive.
Even if it is used for commercial use, it will be slightly more expensive than the old engine ten years ago, and it is not worth paying attention to at all.
Kadir can definitely afford such an affordable engine. Even if he can't afford it, he can qualify for a free trial just by saying hello to Chen Ba.
Therefore, his plan is by no means simple!
"Don't say that to me..."
"I simply feel that the existing Tianba engine is not capable of developing a large-scale FPS game."
Kadir is very realistic. His initial goal was to surpass well-known series such as "Call of Duty" and "Battlefield".
And if you want to realize this ambition, the current Tianba engine is not enough.
Trivia!
The Tianba Engine is a by-product of the development of Global Evolution. Since it is a by-product, the engine naturally has a strong "Global Evolution" style and characteristics.
This unique style and feature would be even more powerful if used to develop similar games. But if it is used to develop different types of games, it will be a disaster.
Kadir proposed that he and his team are willing to pay a very high remuneration to customize a Tianba engine that is specially designed for FPS games and has full adaptability.
"Ah!"
Seeing the foreigner taking out his checkbook very arrogantly, Chen Ba couldn't help but sigh.
Is this really bleeding?
Even if he opens his mouth now and deliberately blackmails Qadir, he will probably accept it happily. No way, an FPS game without plug-ins is really awesome.
No no no!
This can no longer be said to be fragrant, but invincible, directly killing FPS games currently on the market. No matter what type it is, no matter who produced it, it will be swept into the dustbin of history.
No one was unconvinced.
If you are not convinced, then try opening a plug-in in the game! Look at the plug-in you did so badly, can it still be used this time?
From this perspective, Tianba engine is indeed worth the price. People who find it expensive simply don’t understand the value of “FPS without plug-ins”.
But then again...
Just because the engine was worth so much money, it didn't mean that Chen Ba would sell it for so much money. He never even said that he would agree to Kadir's request from the beginning to the end.
Foreign devils, stop being sentimental!
He didn't agree. What does Chen Ba have to do with the price? Is it possible that this guy is still prepared to buy and sell by force?
"Why not sell it?"
Kadir looked a little stunned and said: "Chen, I guarantee that the bid will satisfy you, and I just want a customized version..."
"NoNoNo!"
Chen Ba waved his hands repeatedly and said: "This has nothing to do with the bid. I emphasize again that the Tianba engine does not support customized special versions for the time being."
Crazy?
The more Kadir thought about it, the angrier he became. This was a business opportunity that he had finally discovered, and he was already preparing for a big hemorrhage.
As a result, he met Chen Ba, a fool who refused to accept any money from him and even rejected his proposal.
What on earth is this man thinking?
Kadir thought Chen Ba was strange, but Chen Ba felt very good.
The reason why he rejected Kadir's proposal and check was mainly because he thought of a key issue, that is, if the Tianba engine really has an "FPS customized version", it will definitely become the darling of all game developers.
in other words.
It’s not that this customized version won’t be made, but that once it’s made, it cannot be sold to others and must be in the hands of Tianba Studio.
Anyone else want to use it?
No problem, just give me the money!
This is a stable and safe FPS game without any interference from plug-in scripts. Once it is released, it will definitely have a huge impact on current FPS games.
Under this impact, whether it is a large manufacturer or a small manufacturer, if you want your own games to survive and get a share of the FPS field, you must use the Tianba engine.
Isn’t it better to make money from the entire industry than to make money from Qadir?
It was with this in mind that Chen Ba declined Kadir's temptation and firmly stated that he could look forward to the Tianba engine version 3.1 update.
Not just Qadir.
Taking advantage of this party, many European, American, Japanese and Korean game developers came. Chen Ba found the right target. As long as he owned FPS games and was interested in developing FPS games, he would reveal the news about the new version of Tianba Engine 3.1.
"Whoa? Really?"
"An FPS game without cheaters or cheaters? That's really... quite exciting!"
"Shet! Are you kidding me? How could this happen? Do you know how incredible this is?"
"How on earth is it done?"
Chen Ba, who was originally unknown, and even won the TGA Award, and few peers remembered his name, has now become the most popular star at the party.
Everyone is surrounding him, whether it is a large factory or a small workshop, everyone is asking one question: Is this news reliable?
Can the so-called Tianba Engine version 3.1 really isolate all plug-ins and cheaters?
"We'll see!"
Chen Ba didn't say too much because he also knew that if he said too much he might get slapped in the face.
Therefore, he emphasized that FPS games developed by Tianba Engine cannot 100% resist blocking plug-ins, and can only achieve 99.64% at best!
…
"Cool, there's a decimal point!"
When Chen Ba returned to Jiangning, he heard Brother Dong joking as soon as he opened the door: "How did you get the data of 99.64%?"
"I just said it casually, adding two decimal places to increase the authenticity and reliability of the data."
Chen Ba waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about it for now. Do you have any results from the test I asked Xiao Lu to do?"
"have!"
Talking about serious matters, Yang Dong also regained his composure and said: "The foreigner was really right. In FPS games developed using the Tianba engine, plug-ins are basically ineffective."
Really ineffective!
This failure means that after the plug-in software encounters the Tianba engine, all functions and modules will automatically fail. After a long time, a "no response" window prompt will pop up.
Xiao Lu specially tested several situations.
One is to open the plug-in software or plug-in first, and then enter the game. The other is to enter the game first and enable plug-ins in the game.
no doubt.
No matter what the situation is, when the plug-in encounters games produced by Tianba engine, there will be no response.
The most outrageous thing is a certain AI plug-in. It worked perfectly in other games and even bypassed system monitoring. However, it crashed as soon as it entered the Tianba engine.
That’s right, crash!
This kind of conflict situation directly results in players being forced to choose one of the two. There is no phenomenon of Tianba engine coexisting or even coexisting with other software or plug-ins.
"Are you so stupid?"
Chen Ba took a look at the test results and asked thoughtfully: "After passing the test, is it really possible to experience an FPS game without plug-ins?"
"That's right!"
Xiao Lu said excitedly: "As long as the game is developed by Tianba engine, you don't have to worry about plug-ins, scripts, etc. The same goes for FPS games."
This news is great!
It can be said that from now on, FPS games will enter a new era. From now on, you will be unable to defeat others with guns. You can no longer accuse others of cheating, you can only criticize yourself.
After all, there are no plug-ins in this game, no matter how hard you say, no one will believe you. I can only say that the opponent is a master, and I am careless...
But this also brings about a problem.
The Tianba engine is currently at version 2.6. This version of the engine is, to put it bluntly, not suitable for developing FPS games.
If you really want to force development, there is a high probability that it will cause a series of unexpected bugs.
So when Chen Ba said that he would update the engine to version 3.1 and launch a special FPS development version, Xiao Lu was very curious.
What is Brother Ba planning to do?
The basic framework and components of a game engine are not easy to change, not to mention that Brother Ba has never made an FPS game.
"You can't do it if you haven't done it before?"
"It's just an FPS game, isn't that just a matter of sprinkling water? Who are you looking down on?"
Chen Ba, who originally only planned to make modifications and adjustments to the engine and update the version, suddenly changed his mind after hearing Xiao Lu's words.
An engine alone is not enough.
In order to deepen the credibility, it is better to just make a finished game! Although FPS lacks experience, it’s just a sample... It shouldn’t be difficult, right?
