What programs are needed to build facebook games?

I want to build a facebook game similar to Monster Legends. It will have turn based pvp, leader boards, guilds, leveling, rankings, quests, various currencies, teams, jobs/professions, vendors, story modes, customizable characters, customizable skill sets, skill trees, various drop rates eg. low and high chances of certain items dropping from kills. What programs are required to create a game like this? Can it be done using only Adobe products?

Have you ever developed a game before? I only ask because there is a lot involved in doing so and you listed a long list of features you wish to accomplish. The game you mentioned was developed by Social Point, most of their games are for Facebook as well as a few for iOS, you can begin to see some of the technologies they leverage by looking at their job openings. They mention things such as: Illustrator, Flash, C++, Lua, Java, Air, Actionscript, MySQL, Apache, PHP, Python, PHP, Ruby, etc., and no doubt more is involved as well.
As you can see a lot goes in to games such as these. If you wish to try and leverage Flash you would need to learn and become very proficient with AS3 if you are not already familiar with it, you would also need to also know or learn backend technologies for your leader boards, etc., Again there is a lot involved with this type of development. Of course I am not trying to discourage you but want you to know the road ahead may involve a lot of learning as games themselves can be very sophisticated applications regarding development.
Here are some resources for Flash that may get you started if thats the direction you wish to take:

There are other possible alternatives also besides Adobe products such as Corona SDK, etc..

How do I determine what xtras are needed?

From the searching I have done it appears that xtras equired are mostly trial-and-error.
Is there an efficient way to determine what xtras are needed for each lindividual movie?
My programs are divided into a series of sequential movies. At the end of each movie
there is a goto statement to launch the next movie. Does that require me to determine
xtras for each separate movie?
In a perfect world there would be a way for Director to search a folder for and present an aggregate list of all xtras required for that set of movies.
If no such method exists, what is the recommended hunt and peck system?

Thanks for the response, rduane. But I refer to the procedures as a bit random for the reasons you mentioned in your explanation. For example, you stated that, "Director will normally add all of the Xtras that you need to each movie as you build it". And, yes, I know that it does add some automatically. But, if Director really does "add all of the xtras that you need to each movie as it is built", how could I ever jump to one that is missing a needed xtra? If it needs it, why wasn't it added when it was built?
So, that's the reason I mentioned "trial and error", and "hunt and peck". The system is not reliable in its handling of xtras, or which ones are needed where. I am familiar with workarounds such as going to each movie and selecting Modify>Movies>Xtras to see which ones Director has added, But that is all it tells you. It does not tell you if it has added all the xtras "needed". And when the error message comes up, it does name the missing xtra, but not which movie needs it. So, one has to go find the named xtra and copy it over to the Xtras folder.
At least, that's what I do to fix it. But I asked the question because I wanted to know if Xtras handling itself is unreliable, or if I'm doing something incorrectly.

I just got an IPAD2 on Saturday. With the Mac, I could always tell when programs were open/running by going to the menu bar. How can I tell what programs are running in the background. I am struggling with not being able to go to a menu bar at the top

You can see which apps are open and/or recently used by double-clicking the home button to bring up the taskbar at the bottom of the screen (not all apps that appear there are active) - you can then close apps on it by pressing and holding one of them for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar. If you have an app 'open' on-screen then it won't appear on the taskbar, you will need to go back to the homescreen first, and it should then show when you next open the taskbar.
If you haven't already got a copy then you can download the iPad manual from here : http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

What commands are needed to configure authentication?

I'm running the JaasAcn Sample from a DOS prompt on a Win XP client and am getting 'authentication failed'. My Active Directory Realm is AD.COURSEWIZARD.COM and the KDC FQDN is ad.ad.coursewizard.com. It succeeds when I run the 'Sample' locally on the AD server. If I set 'isInitiator=false' in jaas.conf, it succeeds no matter what I enter for username & password. It seems that I need to configure an SPN.
When setting an SPN, are you declaring that a particular AD user account is associated with a remote service that will be requesting authentication?
Do I have to also use the 'ktpass' command, even though I'm using a Win client?
If I use ktpass, but am just testing with a PC on the Inet, should I just use my IP address for domain since I don't have a FQDN?
Do I need to move the keytab file, created by ktpass, to the client and configure it to use it?
Does the ADS need to have a krb5.conf or krb5.init file? I don't see one under '../drivers/etc/'.
What commands are needed in order to configure the server, and client, to authenticate successfully?
Cheers

Sorry, I haven't seen a nice JGSS for Windows guide yet.
Back to your questions:
1. When setting an SPN, are you declaring that a particular AD user account is associated with a remote service that will be requesting authentication?
IMHO, setspn creates a service-like alias for a normal AD account, so that GSS style server program can use it as a NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE name.
2. Do I have to also use the 'ktpass' command, even though I'm using a Win client?
ktpass is used at the server side, what you use at client side is unrelated.
3. If I use ktpass, but am just testing with a PC on the Inet, should I just use my IP address for domain since I don't have a FQDN?
Porbably not. Anyway, AD works fine with a DNS. If you haven't one, config the AD server as a DNS server.
4. Do I need to move the keytab file, created by ktpass, to the client and configure it to use it?
No, keytab is used at server side. The client side uses the native credentials cached in LSA after you login to Windows as an AD account.
5. Does the ADS need to have a krb5.conf or krb5.init file? I don't see one under '../drivers/etc/'.
Yes, Java needs the file for both client and server JGSS programs. Normally it should be inside the WINDOWS directory. Somethign weird woun happen if you uses Terminal Services or else. Add -Dsun.security.krb5.debug=true to the Java command line will show you when Java tries to look for this file.
6. What commands are needed in order to configure the server, and client, to authenticate successfully?
You need setspn.exe and ktpass.exe on the server to create the SPN and the keytab file. No tools are necessary on the client side, but MS's kerbtray.exe and klist.exe (attention: MS's klist, not Java's) are nice. BTW, a nice network sniffer (say, Wireshark) is also useful.
I'm not an expert on all these questions, but I cannott resist the temptation to give an answer to each of them.

While doing ODI migration what things are needed to be setup in Topology?

While doing ODI migration what things are needed to be setup in Topology manager ?
1.Like in Toplogy in file we hive file paths.
2. In Planning we set Logical schema .
Not sure about other things.
Hoping some can can help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Lots of things are defined in the topology manager - below is a simplified list
1) Physiccal Schemas the actual connection information / details related to any technology you plan to use in your ODI integration interfaces
2) Logical schema, abstracted version of the Physical schema which allows greater flexibility ad reuse across environments
3) Contexts - how you asssociate logical and physical schemas
4) Agents - manage the execution of ODI jobs
When you talk about migration, do you mean moving ODI objects between seperate environments such as Dev and Prod? If so you will need to ensure that all the technologies you use in Dev are present in Prod. The physical layer has been set up with all the correct connection details. Your logical scemas has been set up matching your configuration in the dev environment and you have used the contexts to associate the logical and physical layers as per your dev configuration.

What skills are needed to manage Exalogic?

Hi there
Please let me know if I should be directing this question to another Forum and which Forum it should be.
We are thinking of purchasing Exalogic with a view to having a private Cloud.
What skills are needed or teams in order to manage Exalogic in-house?
I've used google but not really found the answers other than a couple of Oracle docs which suggest sys admins teams, network teams, etc could all have a hand in the management as they currently exist.
However, Management are wondering if a new team needs to be formed and what skills that team should have.
As we already have Exadata under the DBA team they are wondering if the skills the DBAs have will also apply for Exalogic.
Thanks.

Others are welcome to jump in!

What programs are comparable...

After recently making the switch from PC to Mac I need to find compatible software...
I create curricula for a small school along with a school-wide phone directory. I have used Microsoft Publisher extensively and know it isn't supported but wonder if the big Adobe programs are overkill? They seem more than a little bloated for what I need and I'm concerned about the learning curve. Is there something else out there? Would appreciate any advice.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I would concur with Ouch!.
Pages would be a good alternative to Publisher (and you get Keynote as well (a much better alternative for PowerPoint).
iWork with an educational discount will be very good value for money.

What DAQmx files needed to build installer?

I have compiled an executable and am trying to compile an installer for a LV8.5 program. On the client computer, it must communicate with DAQmx hardware. Build parameters automatically include a path (almost to) LV 58. runtime. I want to include DAQmx 8.8 and do not know exactly what files (directories) need to be referenced. v8.8 resides on the development computer. If someone has a build that includes DAQmx, could you take a snapshot of the include box and post it here?
Labview 8.5
Meas Studio 2008

It sounded so easy when I read it that I was actually excited. But.... I checked the box for DAQmx and pointed it toward the ProductCache directory. LV was not happy about that. It requires a file not a directory so I got an error message but it continued. When I clicked build
it asked for the DAQmx disk. Then it asked for a Measurement Studio 8.5 for VS 2008 disk. How did it even know I had this? What if I didn't? I'm trying to build a Labview program, not MS. Well it sort of allowed me to continue but this is the result.
Also it did not write the DAQmx files to the ProductCache.

What Program Is Needed for .SWF?

I think I posted a similar question in the wrong forum, I
apologize for that.
I'm in the process of creating my first Captivate 2 Training
Video at our federal agency. When I'm finished, I will publish the
.cp file as an .SWF file that will be posted onto our Intranet Web
Site, so users can run the Training Video any time they want.
Here's my Captivate newbie question.Our agency is using IE6
for Intranet and Internet access. What program or programs will the
users at our agency need to run the .swf Training Video? I'm very
confused about the differences between Flash and Shockwave.
Thanks,
Robert

Hi Robert
The other files will vary, depending on your choices when you
published. In a nutshell, I'll list them here.
Files you commonly see
* MainMovie.SWF (Contains the main part of your movie)
* MainMovie_skin.SWF (Contains the playback controls and
other information - You may banish this file and force the controls
into the MainMovie.SWF by clicking Project > Skin... >
Borders tab and DE-selecting the "Show Borders" check box.
* MainMovie.HTM (This is the HTML file used to present the
movie to your user. Contains sizing information and also looks for
the fourth file, standard.js)
* standard.js (Contains code used by the HTML file)
Files you may see if different selections are used:
MainMovie_fs.HTM (Created when you select the Full Screen
option. If this file exists, you point your user to it instead of
the MainMovie.HTM. When launched, it contains a link that opens the
movie in a browser without toolbars and such)
MainMovie.ZIP (If you use the .ZIP files option, this is the
only file you will find.
autorun.inf (If you use the autorun option, this file is
created for you to burn to the CD to autostart it in a PC)
Hopefully this helps... Rick

How do you know what programs are running?

Is there any way to tell from the Dock which programs are running? In Tiger there use to be a little black arrow underneath the app. What's changed in Leopard?

The default Leopard Dock indicators are a bit difficult to see with the light background and 3D glass effect. If you would like to have a different look then go to http://www.leoparddocks.com/ I'm using the "Revamped" design.
