I never converted it to a DLL. It's all done in DBPro

Here's where it was last posted :

nope fully db ... and has helped me quite a bit with my Network code for KG

but you could quite easily make this in C++ as a DLL without much trouble

It was to see if I could do something slightly more complex with DLL's in DBPro more than anything else. Plus it makes a good example of how to use DLL's to.

I don't think it would really gain anything to convert it *back* into C Of course, you are free to disagree - feel free to do it

oh no i don't disagree... think its far more useable the way you did it - mainly cause you can alter alot more ingame and setup the memory access for it directly

i'm just saying its possible to convert it back to C++ if he wanted to (no way in hell i'm gonna waste time doing something already there)

It works I've got a great system that fully works that will alow easy access to online game. The system won't ask for an ip and it will find any game anywere *as far as i know i do know its worked between to of my friends computer over the internet* But anyway the second i can cut out all of the extra code i've added in for my game i'll add a topic and post a snipted that should make thing so much easyer
