Downloadable server software??

Is it possible to download the server software and set up a server or do you have to purchase the game install it than run the server software provided with it?

If you know it is legally available could you please tell me the location?

Note: This is not asking for a warez version. I'm strictly looking for legitimate server software that can be set up by my ISP. Please only post if it does exist or it doesn't. Thank you.

You NEED the game to run the server, since they both use the same DATA folder and files....which are over 800MB.

Sorry mate, this server SUCKS.
It's not like the "NWN" server which can act as a stand-alone utility, and everything is handled serverside.
FL has everything handled clientside, I think to make it less bandwidth intensive, however it also makes it simplistically easy to cheat.

Fly well,

Alright thank you for the response. Guess it'll be another week or so before they'll be able to put up a server after the game has been released in retailers here.
