C# Socket Server

Hello @ALL,

currently im looking for a tutorial or guide which teaches me on how to build a socket server with client communication in C#.

Im not new to C# but i didnt used the network stuff till now.

The reason why i want to learn that stuff is, i want to write my own game socket server which handles the connections, update the clients, send commands to the client and so on.

There are some solutions out but they have huge limitations like the smartfox server which offers only 20 connections per session and the full license costs around 2000 euros.

And of course, i want to increase my C# knowledge.

It would be nice if someone can help me or providing a tutorial/guide

Big thanks.

Sorry for the late answer but many thanks for your articles, ill have a look at it.

The weird thing is, i know how to write a async socket server but i dont know how to create/send commands like "connect, disconnect, login, logout and so on".

It would be nice if you have some other examples or tips on how to send commands to the server/client.

Thanks.

That's pretty easy if you get a basic knowledge of how sockets work.

Thanks.

Well, one thing i want to know, is it better to create commands like "loginRequest" or "x01235"?

Because in some examples they used the whole word and i some other examples the other thing which looks like a packet.

The question now is, what's better?
