1. You need to have a computer.
2. You need to have electricity.
3. You require Internet connection.
4. You require players.

Around 20 gb of space for the games

ahem ! ice i dont think u really require a good graphics cards unless some1 actually plans to play frm the server !

Aces170 · Apr 2, 2005

Its for our ISP, so its gonna be a dedicated server...

techmaster · Apr 2, 2005

I will be stting up a ut2k4 and cs source dedicated server will 512 mb ram do ?

Blade_Runner · Apr 2, 2005

512Mb might be enough for UT cant say for CSS .....U can try a trial run on 512Mb and add another 512 if it proves to be inadequate.

This will probably be available to the ISP members or on a internal LAN n/w.

i think for ut2k4 i will tell my isp admin to allow ppl outside my network to play, :hap5:
I have the original game but i do not think ppl on the network have original.

IceFusion · Apr 3, 2005

i think most of the people dont have original UT2k4...

Ho0ligaN · Apr 3, 2005

but U can play with a illegit copy if you know the IP

Used to do that when FS had a ut2k4 server(Bad pings though

)
Now I have a legit copy(Key only

) thx to NSHV_Soulhunter

techmaster · Apr 3, 2005

i dunno will have to try if ppl with illegit copy can play on the server.will try when the server is setup and ready.

Me too want to host a game server.Techenclave game Servers...hehehehhe

Opteron+1 GB RAM+ 40Gig SCSI...will that be sufficinet with 512 Kbps line ?

Aces170 · Apr 4, 2005

^^ Its not the bandwith but the pings that matter ...

Ho0ligaN · Apr 4, 2005

No Aces u r wrong, if darky plans to host a 32 man Onslaught server then 512kbps is peanuts

, but darky host 8 man TDM server there arnd 12 excellent competitive TDM Maps for UT2k4
