Garret,

Yeah, I saw the chat example and I think it will help me get more familiar with those concepts and network stuff in general.

I have not upgraded yet to Rev 3, and was wondering if I will be missing too much by staying with version 2.8

Thanks again!

Mark, Here is a list of some of the multi-player PC games I am referring to: CounterStrike Company of Heroes Battlefield 1942 Battlefield 2 Halo Starcraft There are probably another 20 to 30 other popular PC games that are playable as multi-player games via LAN, but at least some of these should giv...

Garret, No. I just checked out Hamachi and it's not really as specific as I am talking about as regards game server software. I think I will forge ahead with my concept and design at this point. I am just now getting into Revolution so I imagine it will take me awhile on this project. Thanks for you...

Mark, Sorry, I should have explained about the software. The software on the site is used to manage LAN parties. So basically it allows an administrator to manage all of the computers on a network to all login and play various multi-player games on a LAN. It keeps track of each player, allows them t...

Mark, Thanks for the response. Yeah, I had a feeling I wouldn't get much more than that, but I'm not sure how to explain the application. I guess the application will need to deal a lot with networking under Windows XP. It will also need to access whatever multi-player game information that is avail...

How "difficult" will this be?

Hi, I'm new to Revolution and fairly new to programming in general. I need to create an application that will be like a multiplayer "game server" but with some added features and controls. I am planning on using Revolution Studio and even though my application will be running only on Windows, will i...

Mark,

Thanks for the response. To answer your question, at the moment I don't have any of those, however I will be using a hosting service so, it would appear that Revolution may not be the best choice for me at the moment.
