What does it means "integrate"?
OpenSpace is already integrated by itself... you just need to have a SmartFoxServer running, establish a connection to it in your application and pass a reference to the SmartFoxClient instance to OpenSpace.
I suggest you to follow one of the examples provided with the OpenSpace trial.

Hello bax,

I mean once I have downloaded OpenSpace how do I get it to work with SmartFoxServer? Are there any instructions for this?

As said above, simply install and run SmartFoxServer. Then check the provided OpenSpace examples, in fact it is just a matter of providing OpenSpace with a reference to the SmartFoxClient instance. That's all.
Of course you will need to handle connection/login/etc on your own, in your application embedding OpenSpace.

So, If I open the examples that are provided with OpenSpace, how does OpenSpace link with SmartFoxServer?

Thanks

It is just a matter of providing OpenSpace with a reference to the SmartFoxClient instance (in the OpenSpace.init method). That's all.

How do I provide OpenSpace with a reference to the SmartFoxClient instance (in the OpenSpace.init method)?
And how do I embed OpenSpace?

Thanks

Please read the API documentation. The description of the OpenSpace class contains all the answers to your questions.

Thanks for your help bax. So once I have made a room using OpenSpace, how do I upload it to my server?

Thanks

Your map is just a file that you application loads from a webserver. Upload it to the webserver together with you application files.

AGAIN: PLEASE STUDY THE SMARTFOXSERVER DOCUMENTATION!!!

When I have finished my game, What are the exact files I need to upload to my game directory on my web server in order for my game to work? Is it the avatarChat.fla and what is the OpenSpace file?

And I am not really sure about the API documentation, I do not understand some of it.

Thanks

I'm sorry: multiplayer games development is not trivial. You will need to study SmartFoxServer and OpenSpace documentation deeply, as you can't ask for a step-by-step assistance, as we don't offer this kind of service (neither paid, nor for free).

Does it tell me what the files I need to upload are?

Thanks
