Hello everyone, I'm going to start experimenting with networking soon. And I have no idea what kind of library or communication. I'm thinking of starting really simple stuff and in the end (which is my goal in programming) is to make a 2D tile-based mmorpg. So I would need some good and SIMPLE library that will work good with my kind of game. I'm using C# and XNA (with MSVS 2005) to make this game. A crossplatforming library doesn't really mather, at least it works for windows. [Edited by - Iderik on April 1, 2008 5:54:33 PM]

Have a look at lidgren. A number of XNA users (those who don't want to use LIVE) are working with it.

Thank you so much!

By the way, do you got any nice tutorials?
I'm having a hard time finding any on google.

Lidgren will work well for what you want. As for tutorials, the samples that come with it basically tell you everything you need to know. The Wiki/samples on the website are a bit handy.

Lidgren, A Safe alternative to using XNA's Networking is the only one I could find.
