How the heck do I figure out what each player is on each client server?!! You'd think they would have a command for it! I do not want to use Default Net Game cuz I don't have enough control over it. And According to the parameters, Join Net Game doesn't return any values!!! Net Player Created only seems to return to the Host and when I send it to the player it always sends a 0! It should not be this hard!

We have a 'multiplayer tutorial' being slowly brewed as I write this that helps greatly in the creation of MP games. Don't forget you can use the CHECKLIST feature of the multiplayer commands to get a quick glance at who is in the net session

I intend that the MP tutorial will be part of the Patch 3 official release at the end of November if all goes to plan.

ah! thank you wise guru... It worked!!! yet another problem arises. I built a simple chat program to test this. It's peer to peer running IPX. If i send a memblock and a string, the memblock usually overwrites the string no matter what order or how close in code they are. If you have any ideas, help would be appriciated, but the above was good enough to get me out of a 'pickle.'

Thank you!!!
