Server Wanted

  • I have a problem with my mod: FL:EU doesn't have a server. Yeah, this is true. I need a 24/7 server for Freelancer: Expanded Universe. If you live in US or Europe and have a fast computer with a fast internet connection, please post here offering your help ^^


    I can't use my computer for two reasons:
    -It is old (a 2005 computer; AMD Sempron 1.66 Mhz, 256 MB RAM, Video Card ATI Radeon 7000 64 MB, HD Samsung 40 GB);
    -It has a dial-up connection (yeah, this thing still exists). Then I can only connect at the weekends, as this is VERY expensive to use in the workdays, and my mother doesn't wants to buy a faster connection -.-


    My friends in my city/state can't help because:
    -The South American ISPs are slow. The friend with the fastest connection has a computer with a HD of 80 GB, 512 RAM and 1 Megabyte of connection, but he has brothers, and they also use the machine, and also the machine isn't on 24/7...
    -The friend with the fastest computer has a notebook HP Pavillion DV6000z, search in Google to see the machine specs. He has a 600 Kbps connection and also he doesn't use the machine 24/7.
    -The other ppl doesn't wants to help -.-


    That's it. If you want help, please post here.


    See ya

  • Get a gamehost contacted or buy an better connection.


    Thats the only thing I can advice


    Your comp should be able to run it for tests. The only thing needed is better connection


    Get it right, Its ERRR. The wolf way.. associates from GRRR.. Stupid humans! xD

  • I need at least a temp server to test mp compatibility later... I can't do nothing MP here, and my mother doesn't think a better connection is needed 4 me. Later if ppl likes FL:EU we'll get a 24/7 in Europe, but only later, when I post the screenshots and release some betas...

  • you said you have friends that play FL


    LAN (Local area Network) can be used for that...


    That doesnt require a internet connection, it just requires 2+ comps connected to each other by an switch that costs maybe 5 dollar/euro


    Get it right, Its ERRR. The wolf way.. associates from GRRR.. Stupid humans! xD

  • i do test and debug FLHook with a vanilla server and 2 accounts on one PC. it does work.

  • @Hägar


    LAN is somewhat hard to set up (get another machine), but with the time I think I can find a solution for the mp capability tests... I guess ^^



    magnet


    localhost... I've heard a bit about it, then this means I can in some way emulate a connection, but I'm offline and I'm testing the mod in MP with a temp server w/ 1 computer?

  • i am not testing in LAN. i use two windows accounts on the same machine. one runs the server and one client (+ development environment), the other one runs the second client. with windows XP i just switch between these windows accounts for testing.
