Networking!

Never before have I used any kind of networking in a game, so I'm taking this as no small victory!

However, it is kinda small. After an hour or so of mucking around through resource docs and lots of trial and error I've finally got my computer talking to my xbox over a networked gaming session.

It's nothing more than "Hello, what's your name?" but it's a step in the right direction. I think my biggest setback for now is that I have to unplug my computer from my monitor to plug in the vga from the xbox. It's definately an interesting setup but a new monitor is on the way! Lucky a friend of a friend has a 15 inch that was given to him and he's going to give to me!

Oh, living as a starving artist (can you call a programmer an artist?... I think so.).

That's all for now. It's time to get this game talking to itself.
