OK - we need to be focussed here.

I wish to set up a SIMVIATION MP server.

Can anyone volunteer to help set this up? - only mature members please.

This will be on our own server - it will be reliable & 24/7.

Thanks

(PS - anyone hijacking this thread by promoting their own server - please don't .... Wink )

Hi Pete,
Sam has set up a Linux server thingy, which I suppose we could start off with (start small, they say... Wink)
Also, would I be right in saying that a permanent server costs? If so, who would be willing to chip in? Cheesy
I'd like to offer my help in setting up a server...it would benefit us all greatly, but I've no experience of setting up a server  Cry

We should be able to run this server on one of our existing boxes. No extra cost.

Pete,

try it with fshost then, if you download the file as linked to in your pm and unzip the files to a folder i.e.... C:\Fshost30 then run it, it will give you the i.p and then i don't think some members will mind giving it a try, and it also runs on port 23456.

yes.. !! itīs permanent and no extra costs (for the moment) Smiley

edit: no costs as long as we stay within our traffic limit... wich is.. donīt know for shure Smiley but huge. And it doesnīt look
like even a very crowded FSHost Server makes to much traffic.

Simviation must own all its services.

Thanks for the offer though.
This must be on our own network.

It HAS to be '@simviation.com'

Actually I've had a revised thought.

Maybe we should set this up & see how it goes. If it takes off (..) we could get our own one going ... this could be a kinda of trial thing before we dive in ourselves ..

Can you give some info please? Hosting service , etc? Thanks.

Your offer is much appreciated Smiley

I would suggest we test this server another week
to ensure itīs reliability.

After that we could call it the (semi) official Simviation Multiplayer Server.

We have this server running for about a year without
major downtimes.

We will make a brainstorming tonight how to deal with
the admistration (hoplist, races, who will have admin access, schedules etc...).

I īll send you (pete) a message tonight with the
Server Data. I donīt have it all in my mind at the moment.

regards,

sam
