Sockets vs. directplay

Recommended Posts

I'm able to start our dedicate server (resistance 1.75) in ether Sockets or DirectPlay mode, BUT?

Is there actual any performance deference in this.

I know that Sockets solves som firewall issues, but our online playlist do not work with Sockets,so!

Do the Socket version Preform gameflow/client-updates better or ?

This is just a guess since I haven't done any MP with 1.75 yet but I the new Sockets code is supposed to perform better.

Maybe someone had time to play and compare DirectPlay/Sockets (or any larger scale MP for that matter) in OFP:R yet and want to give feedback?

Commandline option only (I think)

ex:

FlashpointServer.exe -dplay -port=2234 -config=serverDP.cfg

this starts up the server in DirectPlay on port 2234 with you config file
