Server Hoster

[Re-Patch 47]

Hallo Everyone

 

I have a small question, I'm pretty sure I've seen some of my favourite servers change between privat and public hive. 
I am thinking about getting a server on my own, not sure yet, but that would be a nice feature.

Fragnet for example is not offering that, you have to choose between private and public hosting.

Those anyone know which hoster has something like that available?

Thanks & cheers

gamingdeluxxe,vilayer,gameservers and fragnet those are the popularest I think, but you can't change a server from private to public or vice versa just like that in my opinion, there's a price difference also

Sorry, I think I meant Vilayer (I asked their support) & not Fragnet.

Thank you for both your answers, I will checkout Fragnet in that case, it does sound like the one I was looking for.

 

Cheers

 

 

EDIT: Weird, to be sure I will ask the support I think or can you tell me exactly what you are renting? Because when I look at their offerings (Fragnet) it looks exactly the same like Vilayer (it looks like when you're on public hive the server can't be locked and if you're on private you can lock it but you can't switch to public. Not sure if I get that wrong from the explanations though.

You might want to do some checking, renting a server it is not what you think it is .

You should read through the Server Forum, there are different discussions that may be of interest to you.

Okay I won't need to ask then I guess :) Thank you very much!

I guess this would be the "DayZ Standalone & Private Shard (Master)" option for 2.21 EUR/slot, is that right?

Thanks for your help & cheers

Hallo Again

Small update, I am now an official server owner, juhuu :D :D
I rented the one we were talking about (Fragnet Master). Very happy with it so far, everything was working right away and the TS I got with it works good as well, thanks again for your help Mr. Valdenburg. You can't lock it with a password if you're on public hive, but that's a good thing probably as this would get heavily abused.

 

Now I only need to find out how to set the restart to two or three (gonna go for three I think) hours with restart warning messages, but I will figure that out.

 

One small question though:
In order to edit the server you need to stop it. Yesterday I wanted to set it up (messages when you log in/starting time/servername etc. etc.) and I needed to restart/stop it a few times for that. As there were already several people playing on the server I would've loved to write a global message (I've seen this before on other servers), something like:

I'm very sorry I need to shutdown the server for 10-30 minutes (we just bought it and need to set it up).

 

Kinda felt bad kicking everyone like 3-4 times by stopping it, it makes it look like I would abuse the restart function, but all I wanted is to set it up for the fist time.

So could someone tell me how to write a global message that everyone playing on the server can see? Or voice would work as well of course, I'd prefer messages though (as I hate it when you can hear the admins speak with their friends etc.).

 

Invitation:

Of course you guys are all very welcome on my server, feel free to check it out if you like.

Server's Hostname is --> Re-Patch's PvP/PvE Swiss Server (2h restart/Pers:off/3PP:on)

 

I will soon change it to three hour restarts I think.

I declared Elektro/NWAF and Military Bases to PvP zones (since they unofficially are that already), so be careful there :rolleyes: :)

 

Thanks for all your help & cheers,
