sumit Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Which programming language is the sims social using? How did they integrate it with facebook. To create a sims like simulation a great engine is required. Does facebook provide the engine? or if not how does it work. I would appreaciate if someone helps me out. What i'm trying to do is to create a sims like game and upload it on a website. Thus which programming language should i use keeping in mind that it requires no installation on the users part but also keeping the level of graphics like sims.(similar). thanks!

Ben Banana Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) Integrated with Facebook, as in built into Facebook's website, or does it just spam messages about player "achievements" onto Facebook? To create a sims like simulation a great engine is required "Game engine" isn't such a generic term. Does facebook provide the engine? No. There is no such almighty powerful engine required to make a simulation game. In fact, I programmed a graphical chicken farming game when I was 11 years old. Simulation games are very very easy to make in comparison to other genres. Facebook has no business providing game engines anyway...

YemSalat Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Which programming language is the sims social using? How did they integrate it with facebook. To create a sims like simulation a great engine is required. Does facebook provide the engine? Facebook provides the API which can be accessed with various languages. The facebook 'like' button on some website uses the same API which the sims game is using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Banana Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 which language is good for making simulation games. None in particular. Any language which is good for making games (at least) -- satisfactory for your ambition and comfortable for you to use -- is good for your purpose of developing simulation games. Flash isn't a programming *language* itself, though ActionScript (Flash's scripting component) is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaled Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 they use Action Script, which is compiled into a bytecode run by Flash Player, which has access to Facebook API, Computer Camera, Microphone, Keyboard, and Mouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
