is it possible to create a private server for all games? =o

i really want to make one for s4league and make it free to play.

Google is your friend. But I would guess no.

no its not possible for all games. Besides for 3D games private servers arent fun :/

Any game that utilises a central server for game play, yes, you can create a private server for it. However the amount of work required to do so often exceeds the returns:

- If a server emulator has yet to be written for the game in question, one would have to be written. This can involve reverse engineering of the original client and server protocol and is not by any means simple to do.

- If the client is hard coded to a specific address, then modifications to hosts files would be necessary to redirect the requests to the game server to the private server.

- The developer or production studio responsible for the game may not approve of such activities and could possibly issue legal action to stop it from proceeding.

So is it possible? Sure. It is even remotely simple? Not by a long shot.

I am sure you can find almost any private server emulator for any game you like. Althought there are some games are very hard to find. Need a good search.

do u think s4league can be made into a private server? i want it to be free and items cost less pen (gamecoin) for timed items

S4league is possible, but I bet that there is an emulator ready, so either start making it and spent next 2 years to make it perfect or... give up.

i searched and the server files are kept a secrate by developers of private servers. there not sharing the files or anything(assholes -.-)
 if there was a way to get the filesmyself i would but im not sure how =[
