Multiplayer Integration

[predi]

Hello,

Iam new @ Leadwerks and have some questions about multiplayer integration.

What is the simplest third party multiplayer tool for a first person shooter. Enet ?

 

I have read something about steam peer to peer network. But they work only in Steam Games.

That was perfect for me but where i can find a documentation about the steam peer to peer network?

 

Thanks for the help and sry for my bad english

I would go for Raknet.

Raknet needs to program? Or can i go through a tutorial to setup server and client?

If you want multiplayer in your game you will have to program. There is no way around it.

Has anyone gotten the c# wrapper for RakNet working?

If (you have && you give me a copy) { I love you forever;}

 

Writing the server in c++ has made me pull my hair out to the point where I'm now looking for libraries that work in both c# and c++, but RakNet is the only one (with a decent license), but you have to do a lot of strange things to get it going.

 

I've tried APlayStudio, but there's very little docs, and keeps crashing for me.

It's actually really easy to get RakNet to work in C++. Just add the entire source code to your project. Don't screw around with the libraries because then it can be a pain to set things up.
