Hi Friends,

I know , many experts developers here in game development.

i got idea about how to make simple single player java applets...

But How do I make online Multi Player Games, Is there a specific API or something? Where can I get some tutorials?

I got one project and need to get the idea on multi player.

Thanks.
Paul

Programmatic Access to Network Parameters explains why you might want to access network interface parameters and how to do so. It gives examples of how to list all the IP addresses assigned to the machine as well as other useful information such as whether the interface is running.

(good programmers always make up new words like programmatic, it's a sort of hallmarky thing)

But to be honest you can easily use cgi scripts, meta refresh tags and javascript to write multiplayer games other than arcade-style
