MTW programming

Does somebody know in which lenguaje is programed MTW?
Does it uses DirectPlay API for MP games?

Any information will be usefull for my incoming proyect.

It would be a safe bet to guess MTW was written using C/C++, like 95% of the games released for PC.


It doesn’t look like MTW uses DirectPlay. If you look at the MTW executable with a dependency viewer, there is no trace for DirectPlay dll’s but it calls directly into wsock32.dll, so I guess they implemented their own network layer. It does use other DirectX libraries (Direct3D, DirectDraw, DirectSound).

Hope this helps.
