MMO Plugin...

[Yuri Patrick]

With all due respect and gratitude to those whom have tried to help me over the last several days to try and write a plugin that I need, I thank you. However, for some reason, I understand AGS Script an awful lot better than I have ever understood C++/C#.

As a result of the statement above, I must finally bend to my inabilities and request that someone hopefuly lend me hand and either walk me through writing a plugin for communication between AGS and SmartFoxServer or write it for me. I know this is a rather large request, but it is a necessary request.

I have SmartFoxServer Pro installed so that I have access to database communication for the login processes and where things may be stored, I have the demo projects for communication with the server via C#, now I just need some major help with getting the plugin written.

All I really need is the ability for AGS to query the server as to where objects go, where players are (coordinates and room numbers) and the login/logout processes. Unfortunately, as I stated, this is just a bit more challenging than I was prepared for.

If someone is willing to help me in this area, please send me a private message.

I'm not a moderator so I won't start off by saying that there was no need to create a new thread for this..:..but seriously, you haven't released even a single game with AGS yet. Asking someone to write a plugin to not only allow the functionality necessary for web-based database access, but to fully support an MMO, is a bit obtuse minded and presumptuous of you.

It is technically feasible, but the point is that for someone who only registered here a few days ago, it's unlikely that someone is going to go this far out of their way to make your game for you. Just saying..you haven't produced anything as indication that you've put forward an effort yourself. Try making a simpler game first to at least show you have a grasp on the usage of AGS. Then you might have a little more weight to your request.

If that sounds a little harsh, Wolverine, just remember that many a time has a n00b come along, found AGS and said "i wana mak a MMO!".
Monkey isn't trying to say that that's what you're like, but it's a precaution against waisted time and effort.

Show us you've got something!
