Are there any ways I could make an internet connection between me and somebody else? My friend and I just want a simple 2 player fps game that we can play together, but I have no idea how to set it up.

Can anyone help? I prefer to stay away from Darknet, because I don't have the money for it. I just need the internet connection between the 2 of us to be decent, nothing amazing. Thanks for all help, I'm a total noob with multi player programming >_>

There are a couple free ones, too, but Darkbasic does have built in multiplayer commands that would work fine for a simple game. Just checkout the help files.

If you're doing it all yourself, check out MultiSync. It's free and has a lot of the functionality of DarkNet.

If you want to jump in to making an FPS, check out FPS Creator. It's basically drag and drop FPS creation, but there's a lot more beyond that you can do with it.

If it's just for 2 friends to play though, Multisync is just as good, and it's free.

What do you mean Just for two? Multisync can handle more than that......... Yeah, MSYnc is pretty cool, got my first online results with it, still use it. Benjamin is the man........

@Dark Dragon, check the first post again. Just 2 players is what he was asking about. I'm not dissin' MSync I used it for quite a while before switching to DarkNet. No complaints about it from me.
