???? You just emulate the servers.....like eldorito halo did or private MMO servers do. Did you think star wars galaxies still exists because Sony propped it up? No it was the users reverse engineering it and emulation.
Ah, sorry; my mind first went to console hardware emulation. Server emulation has been great when we manage it, I just don’t know if it’s always viable.
Often the developers couldn’t even share server programs if they wanted to if there’s some software license in there they don’t have free distribution permissions for.
