New entry in our showcase: Ashcrown, by Samuel Chorvat.

Ashcrown is a turn-based PvP game that’ll test your strategic mettle. Combining the champion-based gameplay of MOBAs with the depth of strategy games like chess, every decision you make will determine if you’ll achieve glorious victory or crushing defeat.

We are happy to announce that all Unity examples for SmartFoxServer are now also available in the Asset Store.
Check our publisher page to find them all: https://assetstore.unity.com/publishers/7020

All projects feature an Editor window showing up at startup with instructions to launch the demo and a link to the online tutorial discussing the code in detail. For projects featuring one, the server side Extension is also provided as a zip file in the Assets folder.

 

Hi,
there's a way to use MMOBasics with server in javascript instead of Java?

 

It is possible, but the Extension should be converted to JavaScript. If you strip the code handling the NPCs, what's left is the UserVariablesUpdateHandler, which should be fairly easy to translate. You can find instructions on how to code Extensions in JavaScript here: http://docs2x.smartfoxserver.com/ExtensionsJS/quick-start

 

We just released v1.8.2 of the SFS2X C# client API for Unity / .Net / Mono / Universal Windows Platform.
In this new version we fixed an issue with cached User Variables, which under some circumstances are not synchronized correctly when a user that was already "seen" before, is met again in a different Room.

We released v1.8.3 of the SFS2X C# client API in which we removed the call to a deprecated function in the SFSWebSockets.jslib file required by Unity WebGL projects.

The SmartFoxServer 2X v2.20.0 update is available now, distributed as a patch for all previous 2.19.x releases.

Among the notable changes:

• Updated the embedded Tomcat (websocket/BlueBox) providing several bug and security fixes.
• Improved License Server communication with faster response times. Also the LS is now reachable from China since the infrastructure was moved from Google App Engine to Amazon Web Services.
• New feature setting in core.xml allows to auto-disconnect slow clients whose packet queue has reached max capacity.
