Ok before you all start flaming me for asking such a ridiculous question, please read through this post…
- I can make text based mmorpg with php+flash+mysql, since the queries are a few like 1 per 2 to 6 sec…so php is a good way there, but what do i need for making a real mmorpg where there can be hundreds of queries per second? like updating x,y coordinates and such?
Somewhere i saw that i need…err…a xml server for this, as it will be the least bandwidth hog…but after reading through some basic xml tutorials i still cant understand, how to exactly use such a server? and is there any such server available for free?
2)This might not belong here, but i still would like to know, which would be better? a xml file or a txt file? for creating dynamic content for a site(like news). and what is the advantage of xml over txt?(if i understand correctly, xml on its own is just a fancy txt file,with hierarchy).
3)is there a way to detect the user’s pc resolution, while running the game?
