A complete/working byte based networking tut. - William - 12-01-2007

Ok, as everybody in the community knows, there are NO complete/working byte based tutorial for MSE. None. There are a few partial tutorials, but nothing decent.

So this is my request. A real, complete, and working byte based networking tutorial.

Oh my god, you're so demanding Sad

Not really. There are some partial and non working tutorials out there. It looks to be part of the next MSE version. But nobody took the time to actually complete a working tutorial yet Big Grin

This is for the community, not me, as I don't use it for VB.

If you mean sending byte arrays, that is because its ayy to long to put in a tutorial, and its so much work.

I was thinking more along the lines of the basics for client and server. Such as the needed classes/modules, and the method of converting a few commands on both client and server to use this. Explaining how it is done with these commands and things to watch out for ... a tutorial, not a complete code replacement Smile

This will get people started, and a light at the end of the tunnel.

Verrigan's original tutorial did just that
