I found a way to get it to work. Unfortunately it is not the desired method. I put the sockets in non-blocking mode so that the program wouldnt freeze while it waited for information from the server or during connection. For the section that connected I put the socket temporarily back in...

Thanks for the response. No exceptions are thrown and therefore no stack trace. When trying to connect it just simply doesnt. It is not an applet and I believe the connection between the computers is fine.

I am using a book called Programming A Multiplayer FPS in DirectX to learn Directx programming. When compiling this code I get an error that searches for the LIBCP.LIB file. At: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/abx4dbyh(VS.80).aspx it tells me that Visual Studio no longer uses this...

I found this workspace with the original file that I am trying to recreate. I added it to my list of files and it solved that problem. However, I got a linking problem: ------ Rebuild All started: Project: Engine, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------ Deleting intermediate and output files for...

I am going to be learning a new language. Online I have read that other than C and assembly languages, C++ and C++.net are the languages that will be best to learn, fastest, most powerful, and will support all of the features I will need in game development. When I went to Microsoft.com, it said...

Thx for the reply. I get it now, but I have heard of an even faster way of doing it. XML Socket connection. I understand how it works completely, except how it recieves/sends data. I understand to use xmlObject.send("string"), but how do I send multiple things at once and be able to pick it...

Never mind. I did a little trial and error and found away to get it to work. For those who are looking at this for an answer, I did: onClipEvent(enterFrame){ for (i = 2;i<5;i++){ if (this.hitTest(_root.menu1["menu" + i])){ _root.score = _root.score + 1; // or...

thx

I am pretty new to flash and php, but I know the basics of both. I have made plenty of flash games, but I am having trouble making a highscore board in which the scores will save. When I simply save them as a var( var highscore; highscore = 10 (or whatever)) they are lost when I leave and/or...
