I think he means IP Config via Ini File

Re: IP Config for MS4? - Labmonkey - 12-11-2008

Why would you want that?

Re: IP Config for MS4? - Matt - 12-11-2008

For an engine? That way, you can set your ip in the client and give the client out and it will connect to your server.

Duh?

Re: IP Config for MS4? - Labmonkey - 12-11-2008

find

' Winsock globals

Public Const GAME_IP As String =

delete it

replace all

Code:
GAME_IP

with

Code:
ServerIP

make a new textbox on frmmainmenu called txtIP

Private Sub lblLogin_Click()

before

ServerIp = txtIP.text

Why not just change Public Const GAME_IP = ??? to Public GAME_IP as string, then set GAME_IP to the ip you set?

It's soooo much easier. Tongue

Thats what I did, except there was already an unused variable serverip so i decided to use that.

Thanks for trying to improve the tutorial though Perfekt. I appreciate it

Np. I can't see why that unused variable is still there. After all these improvements, they just let that go unnoticed? O.o

Thank you sooooo much.

EDIT:now no matter what IP I put I get "Not a valid ip address", do I out something like "localhost" anywhere?
