Dedicated Server Help

[Stylez]

Hi Guys,
Im currently looking for a dedicated server, its the first time I will have ran a server from a dedicated host, so with that in mind I am unsure of which company/website to use, I will be running a RL Map with additions so the server will need to be able to support that and approx 150-200 players.

Key Notes:-
My Location: United Kingdom
Server Location: Pref EU but US if better will be fine
Map: RL Map (TFS 0.4)
Client: 8.6
Players: 150-200 MAX
Link to account website with shop etc

Thanks.

@Don Daniello Offeres cheap dedicated host. And i think @Damon has started with his hosting service.

I strongly recommend ovh.com since they've got strong DDoS Mitigation, good hardware, pretty good network, nice prices I mean they're not that expensive. However they're hosted in Canada and some other countries in EU.

thanks guys, quick questions for a rl 8.6 map with say on average 100 players, what specs of a server should I be looking for? RAM etc

 

[Mr Osama]

8 gb ram or more

 

[narko]

Min 6 GB RAM but is recommended 8 GB. If you are looking for a cheap hosting then visit soyoustart.com or kimsufi.com they both are from ovh. Or if you are interested in my hosting servicem pm.

[narko]

When you rent a vps/dedicated server they usually come with all the ports opened for default.

 

[ConAn Edujawa]

[narko]

Where did you get that host?

 

[ConAn Edujawa]

Then follow this portforwarding tutorial.

Gateway wont open router page idk why :S

 

[WibbenZ]

Do you have lighttpd / nginx / uniformserver started?
If you don't then you have to start it, the port isen't always opened.

Same with 7171, 7172 TFS is the one who opens them.

im opened all ports in firewall but nothong wont work and when check port online say port is closed

Are you using a router or and a modem?
If you use both, you have to open the ports on both of them.
If you have one you have to open the ports there aswell, opening at windows is not enough.
But if you don't have one of them and run the cable from your Fiber optic port to your computer you do not have to open anything other then the firewall.

Also try to disable the firewall and see if it works, if it does then make exceptions in it to get it working.
