Winsock or DirectPlay - I don't care which! Please can someone point me in a direction of a website, ANY website, that will give tutorols on either one of these. Preferrably, I would like the tutorols to be written in Delphi, but after asking for that in the DX forum I didn't get a single response, so ANY advice is GREATLY appreciated. ANY advice WHATSOEVER! Thanks. ~ There's no substitute for failure ~ Edited by - MarkyD on October 2, 2001 3:00:52 PM

Heres a book that teaches *both* I am told, I know it teaches DPlay, in every aspect. It teaches alittle more on some other DX components I am told, too. I plan on getting it:

"Multiplayer Game Programming" by the moderater of this forum, LostLogic.

www.PrimaGameDev.com or www.amazon.com to buy it. Amazon is alot cheaper.
