Simviation Forums

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 .... )

Hi Pete,
Sam has set up a Linux server thingy, which I suppose we could start off with (start small, they say... )
Also, would I be right in saying that a permanent server costs? If so, who would be willing to chip in?
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  :'(

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.

nemo.........

Pete I just send you a message !

Actally we planned on dedicating the server to the SIMVIATION forum. Its running on 100Mbit 24/7.

yes.. !! it

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

I would suggest we test this server another week
to ensure it

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

Maybe the 'beta testing' server ....

Canm you provide me with details before you do too much work on this? Hosting company & one of the designated IP's  - I can look into it then ..

It would be appreciated.

off on another tangent I would be willing to dedicate my time to scanning ports :-P

And of course general maintenance and what not is implied as well...

just let me know if I can be of service!

Great move Pete. That would really boost useage and the number of flyers online.

All you need is to start a VA  (Simviation Airways perhaps?) and you'll haev everything!

FANTASTIC idea!

Will help alot, since i have just completed a very successful Italy Tour, and im about to start the new Caribbean Tour soon, this server will really mean alot as we can all fly together!  :)

Thanks!
