Actionscript 3, smartfox server, license/hosting questions

Post by Choochoo545 »

I have 2 questions.

1) does smartfoxserver let you create an executable that lets users host a server for your game?? It seems smartfoxserver is for MMO type games, and not alot of 20-30 user type games.

2) If it does how does the license work for that?

No. SmartFoxServer must be installed on a centralized server to which all the clients connect.
Also, your assumption that SFS is not aimed at "20-30 user games" is wrong: in fact you can have hundreds of that type of games handled by a single server. It is just a matter of organizing the users into the proper lobbies and game rooms.
