CreateBroadcastListener();
DeleteBroadcastListener();
GetBroadcastMessage();

Who does have experience with them?
I add CreateBroadcastListener();, but I can't get any message for the port.

a network name message, but i missing a send broadcast message command. the SendNetworkMessage appears only at GetNetworkMessage.

I want to get the network message name, but I can't. If I have the name, I can make a list, others can join one of them.

Halley - I've played with the broadcast commands extensively. Unfortunately, I don't have access to my code atm, so I'll get back to you tomorrow

this example give me the "App Viewer Network" Name.
if a host create a listener you should get his name.

this link should help - http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=193602&b=41
but markus's example should be sufficient. I usually add the possible games to an array to use later, but that isn't vital. What aspect are you confused about?
