Haha lol. I had thought you knew how to do this, i was wrong... With DLL's it's easy, if you don't have pro then you need to open a file on the server

How, exactly, do you propose to do that with the Lite version of GM?

Because the lite version can open files, simmply set the address of the file to:
http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/update.cgi
^^ Actually insert the REAL file address lol

No i havn't, i meant in theory that should work. When you access a file normally, you are using the url C:\something or D:\ or for CD/DVD drives E:\ <-(Most common) Why, have you done it?

No, my point is that you have to connect to a server before you can access files there. Since dll functionality and multiplayer functionality (if that would even work...) are restricted in the Lite version, I doubt this would be possible...

That's if you want to respond to the server. (Send it something) If you just want to download from the server... I know another way if it doesn't work anyway

Atually, it is very possible masumi. eg:

Download parts of game for external loading etc (good and reccomended!)
