Irrlicht Engine

i was wondering if someone could help me design a fps lobby and network layout

i tried asking on the other forums but noone would anwswer me

i want a almost halo2 looking lobby and party/matchmaking system

While I have not the slightest idea about halo2, I suppose it won't differ that much from other lobby systems which are in use.

But what do you really need to know? How to make the gui (that's on client)? How the lobbyserved does handle matchdata & playerdata? How a network communication protocoll between server and clients has to look like? How to program a network connection? How to set up such a server?

A lobby system ain't so complicated, but if you have no idea at all it will be difficult to explain. Basicly my questions already outline the major parts of such a lobbyserver.

I'm sure someone can, but you don't appear to have given us any reason to do so. Perhaps if you did some research first, or asked a specific question, you might get some help.

What other forums? You've made a total of 4 posts so far on these forums, two of which asked about running Irrlicht in a browser, and one of which solicited team members for an unspecified FPS. At no time have you asked for help with network or lobbying.

Perhaps you have been posting on other forums, and are confused about where you are. This forum is for the Irrlicht 3d engine. Do you know what that is, I wonder?

This forum, irrlict.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/, is a forum created by the authors
of the Irrlicht engine (obviously). There might also be other forums dedicated
to Irrlicht - this isn't the only one! Here you have a german one, for example:
http://www.irrlicht3d.de/forum2/index.php

That's what he means by "forum" - not a forum inside a forum. (Heh, yeah, that was messed up.)
