BlackTek Server is an open source2D Top Down MMORPG Game Server, with tailor-made gameplay and tile based movement, developed in modern C++.

BlackTek Server is intended to provide a user-friendly experience building 2D MMORPG's in arapid development environment. Ultimately the goal is to create a user experience that removes the barrier betweencontent creator andprogrammer.

BlackTek Server's origins started first withOpenTibia and laterThe Forgottenserver , both are game servers designed to emulate a popular 2D MMORPG known as Tibia.

Having had my fun growing up tinkering with OpenTibia servers like TFS, I always wished they were not built so strict (explicitly emulating tibia), and allowed much more custom types of things. Since that never happened, I decided to do it myself!

BlackTek Server's starting codebase isThe Forgottenserver 1.4.2, and BlackTek Server1.0 and1.1 were built to be almost completely backwards compatible with TFS 1.4.2.
