Colonello Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 I was wondering is it possible to have the server news to be updated through the server? Such as when I open the server I can change the news message. I'd like to be able to do this to inform users of promotional events, new content, etc. If there is a tutorial for it please link it! I'm very noobish in VB6.![](http://imgur.com/eBMM7MJ.jpg) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathtaker26 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Yes, here's a method to doing so.Simply create a new packet to send from the server to the client. The data to send with it should be a simple string. When the packet arrives at the client have a handler change the news text to that string.

xelander Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 What Crest said, just simply send a string over and make the client handle it, it's really simple, you shouldn't need a guide for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
