i am trying to figure out multisync but there realy is no example in dark gdk.
i cop-paste this code from a nothere tread for a consol server
but i get errors

#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include "multisync.h"

int main()
{
	MSG msg;
	int playerNum;
	char buffer[256];
	
	if (!NetHost_IP(10, "127.0.0.1")) {
		NetGetError(buffer, 256);
		printf("Failed to start server: %s.n", buffer);
		getchar();
		return 0;
	}
	
	printf("Server started.n");
	
	for (;;)
	{
		/* Handle the window message pump. This is important because Multisync
		uses window events for notification */
		if (PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE)) {
			TranslateMessage(&msg);
			DispatchMessage(&msg);
		}
	
		// Check for new clients
		if (playerNum = NetPlayerJoined()) { // Note that this isn't a comparison
			printf("Client %i connected.n", playerNum);
		}
		
		// Check for disconnected clients
		if (playerNum = NetPlayerLeft()) {
			printf("Client %i disconnected.n", playerNum);
		}
		
		// Handle messages
		while (NetGetMessage())
		{
			playerNum = NetMessageFrom();
			printf("Received message from client %i (%i bytes).n", playerNum, NetGetMessageSize());

NetGetString(buffer, 256);
			printf("Client #%i: %sn", playerNum, buffer);
			
			// Send a reply
			NetPutString("!Server version 1.1337!");
			NetSend(playerNum);
		}
		
	}

return 0;
}

+ Code Snippet

#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include "multisync.h"

int main()
{
	MSG msg;
	int playerNum;
	char buffer[256];
	
	if (!NetHost_IP(10, "127.0.0.1")) {
		NetGetError(buffer, 256);
		printf("Failed to start server: %s.n", buffer);
		getchar();
		return 0;
	}
	
	printf("Server started.n");
	
	for (;;)
	{
		/* Handle the window message pump. This is important because Multisync
		uses window events for notification */
		if (PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE)) {
			TranslateMessage(&msg);
			DispatchMessage(&msg);
		}
	
		// Check for new clients
		if (playerNum = NetPlayerJoined()) { // Note that this isn't a comparison
			printf("Client %i connected.n", playerNum);
		}
		
		// Check for disconnected clients
		if (playerNum = NetPlayerLeft()) {
			printf("Client %i disconnected.n", playerNum);
		}
		
		// Handle messages
		while (NetGetMessage())
		{
			playerNum = NetMessageFrom();
			printf("Received message from client %i (%i bytes).n", playerNum, NetGetMessageSize());

			NetGetString(buffer, 256);
			printf("Client #%i: %sn", playerNum, buffer);
			
			// Send a reply
			NetPutString("!Server version 1.1337!");
			NetSend(playerNum);
		}
		
	}

	return 0;
}

coud someone show me how to make a simple multisync server and client, maybe just two cubes moving and that they woud recive there positions.

See here for information about it. You will need it in order to compile anything that uses Multisync (or Dark GDK). Download it from here.

I haven't yet made any examples for Dark GDK, sorry. Either way, you will need to download the Windows SDK (I hope you're not a dial-up user

).
