ah
yea...
but IF the server is JUST a meeting spot -- could Flash clients
actually host data? As long as the server is just doing the mapping
of other clients its ok....but what I was thinking about was having
them all hold data somehow. Like - what is the internal limit for
Flash plug in - receiving data? Is it browser limit? etc...
Thanks

It's impossible to do a Flash Player to a remote Flash Player directly
because you need some external common meeting place (like a server)
to tell
you that somebody is waiting to connect. Also there is nothing in
Flash
Player 8 or less that would let you host incomming connections as
all it can
do is pull stuff into the player via LoadVars or XML or XMLSocket.
So I think the minute you introduce a server that acts as a
directory or
lobby for Flash Players to connect, your back to the old Client-
Server model
which is not really P2P.

hi
has anyone tried making a peer 2 peer client via Flash? Anyone care
to make an opinion about the possibilities or difficulties?
thanks
