Game Server files

[zTUXoG1T]

Hello all
im new to c++
you dont know some good tutorials about how make server files

i have mssql databaze done all but im missing just the server.exe login server and game server i dont know how greate it

game i have just the exe files how make the server

im seaching for some tutorials if exist ?

or a file with that i can open the login server.exe and gameserver.exe that i can see in the sources and then create it by my own ..

you know what i wanna ? im having a Game mmorpg but dont know how create the exes for the game to make online server. :)

wrong way

So you have an mmo to host or you think you have what it takes to write an MMO?
If it's the latter I laugh scornfully in your face. No one man can write an MMO in one lifetime. (or woman, let's be politically correct)
Now then, we require acceptable grammar, spelling and capitalization around here. Only on 4chan are you expected to write garbled broken english, and there it's good style. Here, we behave like normal people.
Anyway. Chances are you should just find a server host program like an FTP client or XAMPP to manage your game server. Look somewhere else, in other words. You are not going to have any fun writing such a program in C++ and I would bet a million bucks it's out of your level, because it's well out of mine.

no no i dont need write a game

look i have a game from ncsoft

i need make the server files for the game that i run 2 exes and ppl can connect to the game by internet

im not need make a game..

[tummychow]

Grammar? Spelling? People, not ppl, and capitalize when appropriate.
Now then, if you aren't planning on programming your server client this is the wrong place to look. There are better places to find a game host.

im planning programming my server files
but i dont know how some tutorials about it ?

lets say you have an mmo game Aion and you wanna now make server files for it this is what im searching but i still dont think you understand what i need.

with the db no problem i have created tables what is needed but now im at last missing the exe.s
to log the game server and then ppl can connect to the server.


if you cant help me at this then exist a decompiler? that can decompile every .exe file and give me full source code so i can see from other server files the source and make it by my own with some changes.

[tummychow]

I bet already and I would bet again: those files are out of your depth. Do you know how to use the windows API? WinSock? Any network libraries? You're new to C++; you said so yourself; how do you plan to match the work of a team of people with less knowledge than any one of them? Just find a program to do it for you.
And again, grammar? Spelling? Capitalization?

No it isn't [out of your level]. Clearly it's out of his, though.

Writing a program to download files is easy.

if you cant help me at this then exist a decompiler? that can decompile every .exe file and give me full source code so i can see from other server files the source and make it by my own with some changes.

The best free decompiler I ever used was called Boomerang.

I decompiled a hello world program:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void) {
    printf("Hello, world!\n");

    return  0;
}

The result was nothing like it. Decompilers are incredibly difficult to write. The way it seems to work is by analyzing how the registers are used in asm and then trying to convert it to C.

I got back something like this:

int main() {
    int eax;

    return eax;
}

[tummychow]

I doubt a server client is within my level of programming; I really don't think I have ever gone that far. (Especially because programming is a hobby and not a job for me.)

this guy confuses me..

[zTUXoG1T]

tummychow so what you doing with c++ ? you said it is a hobby for you
ye for me too but say me what ur doing when no some server files

its not boring for you making just cout << "Hello" << endl; ?
in console ? super you see Hello but this is not hobby so tell me what ur making with c++ ?

[Incubbus]

its not only hello...

man... its

Hello World!

tummychow so what you doing with c++ ? you said it is a hobby for you

@ThePlus
when talking to people in English it's helpful to use standard English so they understand you.

The only thing I understood out of that is that you think c++ is a hobby of yours, yet you think doing standard things you need to do to learn c++ is not a hobby, it's boring?

amirite? why the hell are you here then?

Go back to Aion dude, or you could try searching google Or using the Aion forums for developers a little better.
eg. google: Aion client server. or w/e not hard.

btw, if you want to do anything serious in programming you need to start at the bottom and work your way up. this takes years, and years. Even to write a small game like pacman will still require 1 year of programming knowledge and then sufficient time to do.

[tummychow]

@ThePlus: I'm serious when I say that a server client is out of your level. You think you can jump from hello world to running aion on a self-authored game host? You can say sayonara to that dream. YOu need to move slowly and if you can't handle hello world because it's too "booring for you" then move on and find something else to do because you aren't going to be writing a server client worth the screen it's shown on for the next twenty five years. THe reason I program for a hobby is because I find satisfaction in the understanding of the code - in solving the problems, in writing things that work. I don't give crap that it's stuck in the console because I know that I lack the skill to move onto bigger better things. So I damn live with it. If you think you can jump into API from Hello World you're going to be frustrated for a long time.
It is boring for me to do Hello World. But I stopped doing Hello WOrld because I damn understand the language, unlike you, asking to jump from standard IO to an API'd server client.
Dammit I hate these stupid "I did hello world halp I know wants to programz complicated thing that iz obviously out my lvl pls halp" threads.

@tummychow,
No, a server/client application isn't out of your level. It's easy.

What may or may not be out of your level is a full-blown HTTP server...

The english language, much like c++ is a language that is learned. Newcomers to the english language. much like newcomers to c++, will have errors in the syntax in their descriptions of the issue at hand, I am not so sure that being so harsh on folks that dont have a full grasp on the english language is very productive, even though it is frustrating.

In a case like this, perhaps just letting them know that their use of english is confusing at best, and urge them to use more concise and appropriate syntax to describe their current c++ problem/ issue, so that people can begin to advise them in a more exact nature.

If it is beyond the scope of their experience, which was plainly stated many times here (and I agree, it is), then of course that should be stated, but in my opinion (and its only an opinion) that message was 2nd to the overwhelming concentration on the english language shortcomings.

This should not be confused with the lazyness of people who type idk, bcuz, 4(for), 2b(to be), etc..

cplusplus.com is greatly complimented by having such a large international following, it should not be seen as a detractor. cplusplus.com has been called the best c++ learning source many times in many posts, I believe this is true.

I was recently told "c ++ is a high order language which requires high order thinking" by a regular here. This statement should not only be true of writing code, but also of the general demeanor when taking on the role of mentor, albiet briefly(responding to posts)

I can only imagine the grief I would get if cplusplus was displayed in Russian and the mistakes I would make in trying to describe a problem in their native language.

I hope this was short enough not to be viewed as a manifesto, and I sincerely hope I did not offend anyone writing it.

ok tummychow can you give me an example ? what you have do in c++ ? or what your doing

all the tutorials are in console with hello world and etc boring thinks wich i know and i tested on myself but what now i know it and what now i can do ?

[gcampton]

@ThePlus

do all of these in this link, if you can do them easily, I will help you write a client server for Aion.

The last one, radioactive mutant bunny program is fun...

[tummychow]

ThePlus, allow me to make clear to you the level of programming at which I can work:
I've pretty much covered all the class material. Inheritance and templates and everything below (functions, arrays, stl containers). Tell me, ThePlus, do you even recognize those words? Or do you think you can cout << "MY SERVER ARRAY IT R SO AWESUM PLAY MY GAME PLAZ"?
I want you to read this whole tutorial:
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/
When you've read every entry in that tutorial and you can honestly tell me how it all works, I'll consider helping you. You are asking a silly, juvenile question because you severely overestimate your own abilities and you underestimate the language. If you want something awesome the first thing that needs to be improved is your OWN SKILL. You think you can honestly jump from console to server code?
I'd bet you a billion dollars that you can't, and I'd walk away with a billion dollars.

ok i go make it and i will then pm you

tummychow

ok i know i cannot jump from hello to server ye we know you dont need write it all the time in the posts i asked you just what you doing with c++ example but if you dont can write what im ask then about what we talk ?
