Hi,

We have some plans to implement in the near future a multiplayer mode for a game that we are working. Would it be possible to use bluetooth for communication cross devices in v-play (for example like in this example Qt example http://doc.qt.digia.com/qtmobility-1.2.0/declarative-connectivity-tennis.html)?

Best Regards,
Mathias

Hi Mathias,

bluetooth support is currently not on our roadmap. However, please post your suggestion in the Roadmap post, maybe there are more developers who would like to use it for multiplayer. With the possibility to use your custom C++ code which is coming in Q3, you can also add this support by yourself!

Cheers, Chris

Hi again Mathias,

for multiplayer, you could also use XMLHttpRequest to achieve snychronous multiplayer support. From what I’ve heard from a customer from the developers of Blockoban, they used that approach for a synchronous multiplayer for their upcoming game and are quite happy with it.

Cheers, Chris

That’s interesting to hear. I have been considering this option also.
