About databases - yes, each company has it's own backend scripts. But we plan to add some simple examples in the future. We don't want to depend too much on SmartFox Server specific features, since we plan to add support for other socket servers (Electroserver will be the next one). Clint, thank you for the info on security.

Its still possible but you would have to be responsible for that. TheoWorlds probably sells to major companys and they have employers at the company do the serverside work. So I can understand why they wouldn't have examples in it.

In the Smartfox server if you look in the .AS files it supports basic encoding and you could add more. Also its very possible to add a some sort of encryption that watches the packets and requires some sorta of special key when a packet is sent. So there can be no packets sent out of order and if there is it will disconnect the client from the server. Client hacking is not possible if the values are stored on the server. For example when you load a room in TheoWorlds the server sends the client the infomation and attributes of the location of the avatars and the furniture. If there is any client modification it will only affect that client, making it only clientside. Encoding packets is not that hard.

Also, I am interested to know if AC 3 will be supported in the future version of SDK...
