Title: Bold request (server)
Post by: SASF-DarkShooter on Friday, May 01, 2020, 04:06:14 AM
Hey guys,
I'm glad to see that the game is still somewhat alive.

With (nearly) everybody in lockdown, I've been trying to set up an SASF clan reunion party, scheduled this Saturday. I've been able to get hold of a temporary teamspeak server (I'm aware there are better services, but for nostalgia's sake), however, acquiring a gameserver has proven to be a bit more of a hassle. Especially because most server providers have dropped support, the ones remaining are rather expensive for what could be a one time thing.

That's why I was wondering if there's someone willing to let us 'lend' their server (preferred EU location, but beggars can't be choosers). I understand that this is quite a bold request, but a man(child) can always hope :)

Perhaps see you soon ingame, and as always, happy fragging!

Google Cloud and Amazon AWS offers VPS free for 12 months, you only need to add a valid credit card.

Awesome, thanks for the heads up. Is it as simple as installing the source code for the server and then configuring it, or is it more advanced than that?
Awesome, I'm familiar with configuring AA servers hosted at a provider, is it relatively

You will have to setup the machine config, I recommend Windows, because it comes with remote desktop.
