[QUESTION] Server on Virtual Server?

[k0de]

Is it possible to purchase a Virtual Server (easyspace) ect and then install a Dekaron Private server to it?
Thanks.

[janvier123]

no

[kasuma11]

Yes you can you can use any type of virtual server that supports pagefileing, make sure you message them to ask that. you can use easyspace, photonvps, and others as long as u have a remote login via, remote desktop, vnc, or teamviewer

[Hesorio1u]

no

[darkaxis05]

Yes you can as long as you have the admin rights and also req specs to it

[janvier123]

Please DONT listen to kasuma11 & darkaxis05
If they would actually VISIT the site and LOOK they would notice that..... depending on dekaron action, you need more then 2Gb Ram => the highest package is MAX 2gb

Dekaron UNIVERSAL requires 12gb to give you and idea

[kasuma11]

"Ok this is gotten way out of proportion. Jan i thought you quit so get off this forum lost all respect...... The Server files for Action 9 need a max of 8GB to start the server and that is with the arena server. Also after a couple times of starting the server everything is cached into page filing from the hard drive which bring the requirement for the server down to 5 to 6GB. Unless Jan is watching a load of **** and running a bunch of bloat ware i swear someone is smokeing crack!!!!!!!!"

I have hosted servers with VPS for years for not only dekaron but loong power of the dragon, aion, and silk road.

People that say nothing works, wont help, or say ungodly specs that are not needed unless your running a nuclear plant just doesnt want new servers to get on the market due to these facts.

1. They want all the players to there selves.
2. They couldnt get stuff to work so why should anyone else.
3. They QQ on everytime something goes wrong and blames everyone but themself.

heres couple hosts i have used in the past.




they have well over the specs you need to run a server.

starting out you dont need a dedicated remote server. i would stick with a VPS until your server gets bigger.

kasuma11 is absolutely right. There are many VPS servers out there that give you admin access to the server though RDP. However, it's not cheap! It will cost you around $250 to $300 per month but it can be done.

[Decima]

for $300 you can get a dedicated server with 16gb of ram, so why waste ur money on a VPS? most of the time those things are ran on shared systems, which means you dont even get the max resources as stated, hence the name 'VIRTUAL' server, its not an actually server.

yeah, u can run it on 8GB of ram, hell you can run it on 4GB of ram with 8GB paging file, but just because you can start it and log on to AN account, doesnt mean you can call it any sort of server, get 10 ppl on 6GB of ram and have a huge lag party all night long, grab you a drink while waiting to take the next step, you will have time

but if you want a server you can actually play on with a few ppl, 6GB of ram is not going to allow that no matter how awesome or super smart you are, its funny u say you have ran all those servers on a VPS, funny how none of them are around :| i bet i know why, but im sure it had nothing to do with the server running like dog ****. . . .

you have an extremely flawed perception of these forums, you think server want to keep their players (which DUHHH, no ****, you never wanted to keep ppl on ur server before?) and they cant get anything to work, and blah blah blah, but in reality, the ppl you are talking **** to atm, are ppl who have got it to work, no one helped them, they figured it out on their own, which is a hell of alot more than i can say for 80% of the members here including you, i think jan has earned plenty of respect and understanding on these boards, his account is hardly 1 year older than yours, he has 1000+ thank yous, you have fking 12, you have accomplished nothing, no releases, no posts on threads where ppl are trying to figure **** out that isnt plain common sense, for all practical purposes you are useless compared to jan, and yeah he gave it up, but he spent years of his life on it, knows 1000x more than you about front end and back end, could script circles around ur smartest family member im sure, so you can get off ur soapbox and take a bow, ur underneath him not above

bottom line is simple; you want a **** server that you and 2 other ppl can get on and play GM, go with a VPS, you want one that ppl can actual play and have a good time without wanting to throw the monitor in to the street, get a dedi, its not rocket science ffs

and $300 for a VPS, wtf? oO why?

[Farius~]

With 300$ my get 32gb or more per month lol.

[kasuma11]

Ok you only need a $50 - 80 VPS, which useually has a Dual to Quad Xeon 3GHZ cpu, and 6 to 8GB ram. You dont need something out of this world starting out. I would personally look around for a server that has Unlimited Monthly bandwidth, 8GB ram or more which is optional. and 80GB harddrive or larger. just take it with a strive and take your time get a basic VPS within those specs.

[Decima]

*****, 80GB hard drive?

just the back ups alone (if you are smart and are making back-ups. . . . ) would eat that 80 up in a month or less, then lag will be pleasant compared to how the server would run after a few back-ups

seriously, if ur gonna spend 80 a month for a **** vps, may as well spend 120 to get a dedi, and bandwidth? really? you could have 50+ players on playing all day and night and not even consume 400gb a month, most dedis come with 4000gb minimum a month thats included in the price.

VPS are for ppl who dont want a server in a month, waste of time, waste of money, waste of effort, so you can listen to this guy who has more failed servers than he can count and 0 successful servers, or you can listen to ppl who actually know what they are talking about

you come on here talking **** about ppl not helping, when we do, you feed the person we are helping a big spoonful of bullshit and try to dress it up like a prom date, put ur edick up, ur not helping this guy, ur leading him to a hole he wont be able to crawl out of, there are very cost effective dedis out there that cost as much or less than a ****** shared vps, i can get a dedi right now with 32gb and a quad core for $80 usd, has 5x more bandwidth than you could even use, a 1TB HD, and has remote access and its own IP, and doesnt share resources with other servers.

VPS == FAILURE

and you can swing ur edick until ur red in the face, its not going to change the fact.

[freez00]

VPS solutions are used by large businesses around the world. Dedicated static IP and unlimited bandwidth are expensive from an ISP. It means a business plan which is at least $100.00 per month. Then you need to buy the server, OS, SQL Server etc. Many VPS packages come with SQL Server already. In some countries a static IP is insanely expensive. All depends on where you are. Rising is on VPS.

[kasuma11]

80 GB harddrive is good enough, on my server i use a remote backup system anyways that off sets all my backups to my 100GB skydrive accounts and also my home PC. prices for VPS can run dekaron servers can range for $75 to $250 depending on what country your wanting your server, features, and how many ip's you want. I would just go basic for now, and expand as you go. Most VPS services will expand your harddrive and features since they are only virtual when u upgrade in the future not hurting your current setup.

[Decima]

remote? *****, rising on a VPS, again *****, rising IS NOT on a VPS, and if you think it is, then you are retarded. . . .

and may as well just **** on ur bandwidth if you are using a remote back up source, may as well just host every download you have on it, lag party FTW ffs. . .

yeah businesses use VPS, large businesses, **** no, i think they make enough to use a dedi, and while we are talking about that big load of bullshit, businesses use them for web scripts, not game servers, which use a lot more bandwidth than some run-of-the-mill web script, u are comparing apples to oranges

look, you can use the advice of these 2, which combined have a an average of ZERO successful servers between them, or listen to the ppl telling you the actual truth, remote back-ups, really? ***** may as well just **** on ur connection and call it gold, country origin doesnt make a ****, u can live in any country and get a dedi on the other side of the planet, obviously you are gonna get players from all over, so why get a dedi 2 blocks away?

you guys are the ones thats holding ppl back by giving them false info on things, neither of you know **** about running any kind of server, so stfu and rtfm already, stop feeding ppl bullshit, 250 for a VPS? ur smoking crack, u can get a better dedi for half that price easy, wtf is wrong with both of you?

done with arguing this point, if you have an IQ over 60, you can Google it and see the difference and whats better to run a game server, whether you have a $80 budget or a $400 budget, a VPS isnt going to do anything for you, and their failure should be proof enough for that.
