[adih2001]

Hello! Is there any services that host Quake World servers or Darkplaces servers? Please tell me! Or i have to host servers on my own?

[Mindf!3ldzX]

yes. Pretty much. You can pay to host a server,or as you mentioned, host your own.

Can you tell me some services that host darkplaces servers? Or quake world?

Well, first narrow it down to where you want to host the server. Are you in the USA? Where about in the USA?

I'll help you as much as I can, at least until someone who has experience renting servers pops in. It's none of my business but what is your goals in hosting your own server?

My take on the situation lately is, we have plenty of servers not enough players.

I'll chime in and help you out.

Look at www.linode.com and setup an account. $20 month and you can host a world of server's from one box.

You must know enough about linux in order to set up a server. Almost every server now day's is ran off Linux and very few ran off windows.

You will have a very difficult time finding a "game server host" that will host a quake server. Most only host Quake 2, 3 & 4 and some not even Quake 2 or 4.

Try the site posted above. They have several location's you can choose where you want your server. Good luck.

Before you go ahead and set up your server it might be worth reviewing the server list to make sure that there isn't already a server running your mod of choice in your desired area. It would seem silly to duplicate something that is already in existence and thus deplete the player base from current servers. I think Mindzy hit the nail on the head when he made reference to the fact that, thanks to very kind people like Wicked Lord and Polarite, having servers available to play on is not really an issue at the moment. Having players to play on the available servers is. ...unless of course we have a tournament at which point players come out of the woodwork to smash each other to bits

If you do decide to progress with you server I wish you the best of luck

Kind regards

Late reply, but better late than never

Well, the good news is that its very unlikely that you HAVE to setup your own server, as there 400 quakeworld servers around the world and dozens in USA alone.

the BAD news is... noone referenced News / QuakeServers.net _THE_ reference for Quake servers (NetQuake servers aswell!)


If you want to host your own QuakeWorld server, its a 5min job for anyone. go to nQuake and download a server package for windows or linux. run it, yes yes yes, done.
