Local Wifi Multiplayer without using Google Play?

[Chris Babcock]

Psychogony,

Your PR #1820 was accepted for 4.12 today

Awesome - Thanks Chris (and thanks in general for the forum attentiveness/responsiveness, its often your name on the answer I am after).

I just tried this issue on the 4.12 p4 and it's still happening on my end. Have a server on android, can connect via direct ip, but find sessions does not find my android device. Is it only working on the source version of the engine?

As I am currently in the development stages right now on a cross-platform game with built in DLC.. I need this function to work for downloading the content from a host (or the play store). I do NOT want my customers to be able to download the DLC using their cell data (must be connected to wifi).

As there are several settings on the devices that detect if it's on wifi or not, this should be reasonable to implement within the engine for us blueprinters.

Is this fixed?

Edit: I've read that indeed it's fixed in 4.12 and some people confirmed it so I'll reformulate the question.

Does this mean that I can finally make use of the Google Play Game Services Real-Time Multiplayer functionality and finally make people play each other through Internet just like Steam?

[masterneme]

After a lot of head cracking, finally found it. Thanks

In theory that process is unnecessary with 4.12 because it's fixed but I haven't get any confirmation yet.

Can agree, everything is working.

Can someone please direct me, how to set up multiplayer properly so that find session works properly. Currently I can connect through IP Address however find session never works. It works on PC but not on android
