Help with Serialization

[Galarun]

Hey all,

I'm writing a card game and am implementing network capability. The cards.dll I downloaded from a site isn't serialized. Is there a way to make an inherited class that is serializable or am I forced to find another class or means of sending the card data? I'm new on networking so my knowledge on this is slim. Thanks!

I would write my own class that holds the cards data and make it ["Serializable"]

How are you doing your networking? You might want to look at remoting!

I actually ended up just transfering a string array with data that can be interpreted on the other side into cards, because making another card class would just be a pain.

I am doing my networking by using TcpListener and TcpClient classes. I read that this was the simplest way of networking computers, but if you know a better way I would love to hear it!
