Host

[RogerGalvao]

Hey guys a while was thinking of opening a server, but I was just too long without dropping the project, but now with the arrival of the holiday I thought I'd return to work the same. As I do not know if the server will succeed or not so I thought I host provisionally at home on a pc with the following settings:

Memory: 8GB
HD: 500GB
process: corei5
upload conection: 0.8mb or 800kbps

Could handle as many players on average on windows and linux? Or not worth it because I do go down all the time and I'll just be wasting time.
Another thing I would like to know is whether it is possible to compile on ubuntu OTServer 13:04

The computer specs would probably be enough, but that upload speed is not that good :S

If you are planning to have lots of players online (500+) your server will be REALLY laggy.

Bandwidth is a major problem there.

I plan having an average 150-200 players online

haha dude get atleast 50 mbps upload speed or even more.
100 mbps is fine.

Ur bandwidth wouldn't even handle 50 players without lag

False. 50 - 100 players should go fine if he avoids messy AACs with big images.

Ofcourse he will be very vulnerable to dos attacks, but thats another discussion.

Should work fine.
