Electro Server Tutorials?

Arm4 · 03-04-2005, 06:20 PM

Are there any good sites with Electro server tutorials? I know that there are source files on the Electro server site, but, I'd like a breakdown of why things are the way they are in the code.

So, are there any good sites with Electro server tutorials?

Some must exist... any links?

Hi Arm4,

No tutorials.

Site link:
http://www.electro-server.com/

Articles:
http://www.electro-server.com/articles.aspx

Open-source examples:
http://www.electro-server.com/showcase.aspx (plus a bunch that get intalled with ElectroServer)

The closest thing you'll find to a tutorial are some chapters out of my game book, see my footer.

His book is great, and I know that the local library had copies of both versions of it so you can always try that if you don't want to buy it outright.

I would suggest borrowing both versions, or if you buy one, borrow the other version as the content is a bit different.

All in all Electroserver is extremely simple to use. Take a look at the examples or some of their documentation.
