    Hi All

    I have just downloaded the iphone multiplayer example and tried to compile in unity iphone basic and it fails with 'System.Net.Sockets are supported only on Unity Iphone Advanced' - I thought that iphone basic did support networking?

    I checked the docs and there is no mention of iphone advanced as a requirement, have I missed something?

    Cheers

    I am pretty sure you need advanced to use networking.

    Just looked it up.

    .Net socket is not supported by iphone standard.

    iphone basic does support the main unity Networking, it just doesn't support .net sockets

    Thanks for the replies guys.

    Its a shame the tutorial couldn't be spilt for those with unity basic and those with advanced so we could all take something from it. I will run through the PDF file and see if I can spot the bits that require the advanced license to see I can get something to work from it.

    Cheers
