SOX instead of Winsock

[Spodi]

hacks?

also apparently you cant send binarydata with sox because of null.

and were can you download the ocx?

edit: dont worry i think im already using iocp lol

SOX handles data as variants by default, just like the winsock control. You can send as string or byte arrays.

On his testing when he used IOCP it used 70% of his CPU and when u used Sox it used only 30%.

SOX itself is pretty bloated as-is, and not really made well for games. You should try GOREsock from vbGORE - its a modified version of SOX directed towards faster handling. It takes out a lot of the overhead SOX has, like that extra 4 byte packet header added with every SendData call, plus easier handling for encrypting/decrypting packets.
