Differences between GMnet ENGINE and GMnet CORE

GMnet ENGINE is the multiplayer engine you can download on this page and on the Game Maker Marketplace. It includes GMnet PUNCH to allow multiplayer games between firewalls and an online lobby.

GMnet CORE is the core part of ENGINE without PUNCH and can not be downloaded on it's own. To turn GMnet ENGINE into GMnet CORE, simply set self.use_udphp to false in htme_init(). You can then even remove all udphp_ scripts then. All manual pages with PLUS do not apply to you, if you disabled or removed GMnet PUNCH.

GMnet CORE used to be downloadable as the free version of the HappyTear Multiplayer Engine, the old name of this product.
