Hey guys I just was wondering the possibility of using a site server to host a RC dedicated server.
I would upload the RC multiplayer files and would run RC in the server. The server would be always online as a normal site.
My questions are:

1. game server and site server are the same kind of servers?
2. Can this be possible to do it?
3. Which files do i have to upload from rc to server?

Thanks,

Element

site server meanign a Website server? Whats your plan to start the server?

Dedi server and website servers are the same, but depending on what sort of access you have will make the difference. The place you are hosting your site at will also define what you can and can't do.

If you don't have remote access or commandline access to the server you can't start the exe anyways to run the server.

But for a second i'll entertain the though that you do have the above access ($50ish a month). You would need to upload all of the RC files to run a server, and any custom content.


If you don't understand anything that I just said, just abandon your idea, and rent a gameserver. I recommend http://www.jestservers.com/ ($3 a slot for RC, he has specials for paying for multiple months and so on. The server would be on a Solid State Drive increases the loading speed)
This is my super cool signature, if you think you can best it then make one and Personal Message it to me. :)
