You decide the default direction, in the AvatarMovieClip class itself.
That sentence in the doc just means that if -1 is passed, you can place the avatar in a direction of your choice; if a different value is passed (0 --> 7) instead, you should place the avatar in that direction.

In OpenSpace, in order to control the avatar direction, the onDirectionChange listener is called on the AvatarMovieClip class during the movement on the map. The event contains the "dir" parameter, an integer with the following meaning: http://www.openspace-engine.com/_support/avatarDirect...

Sorry, currently we don't have time to test the RTMPT protocol. We will post a message as soon as we have news.

You want to press ENTER for sending a message? If this is the case, your question is related to generic Flash (or Flex) programming, not specific to SmartFoxServer behavior. Try a simple Google search and you will find a lot of answers. Or, even simpler, check the Flash documentation about the Text...

It's not so easy to achieve, but the only way is to open the game in a new browser window. This will require having the games on a different SFS zone, login the user silently with the same username to the new zone, etc.

The OpenSpace.xml configuration file contains a section dedicated to Avatars named AvatarTypes . In this section you can describe all the avatar types (usually 1) that OpenSpace should be aware of. A description of each parameter is provided here. type This string identifies the avatar and must be p...

We are just starting the development phase, but we don't have a release date yet.

Very good, thank you.
We will make some tests and modify the API when possible.

No, we have a free evaluation version with a number of limitations.
The limitations can be removed by buying the pre-release or the final release once it will be out.

mm... yes, we double checked an it doesn't work. Probably there's something to set on the Red5 side. Our suggestion is to make a Google search to collect more informations.

You also have to add the SmartFoxServer API classes to your project, in fact all the RedBox events you mentioned extend SFSEvent class of the SFS API.

Import the RedBox API Flex project in Flex Builder. Then in the properties window of your project add a reference to that project. This should work.

You can't. You have to use the RedBox classes and recompile them. You will find the ready-to-be-imported Flex project in the RedBox package.

If everything works fine, we could add a property to the RedBox API so that developers can choose the protocol between RTMP and RTMPT.

In all the RedBox main classes (AVClipManager, etc.) you will find the initAVConnection method. In this method the following instruction is responsible of connecting the client to the Red5 server: netConn.connect("rtmp://" + red5IpAddress + "/" + Constants.RED5_APPLICATION...
