Hi I am gonna get a server but I know nothing of renegade servers not even the basic stuff. So I was wondering if some people could fill me in on it. Stuff like SSAOW and a bunch of other stuff. Thanks in advance! Big Grin

1) read throughout the Renforums
2) use the "search" link
3) download all necessary files
4) configure and start your FDS

Have you looked on the Server Listings recently? There are already way more servers than the community needs, why do you feel the need to clog up the listings with yet another empty server?

Maybe so but everyone is entitled to there FDS, right? IIRC, theres a guide on renhelp.com but don't hold me to that.

I know, but I just think that people should actually think about the reasons behind setting up a server that will probably not see more than 5 players a month unless it has an a00000000000000 name. It's a waste of money and effort which could be better spent sponsoring an existing server, or not spent at all.

Too many people seem to come here, see the FDS download, think 'cool, I want a server' and go ahead and set one up without even considering how they intend to actually get anyone into it.

That's the whole problem. In the past, FDS were free cause everyone knew there was always a need for more servers because:
* they were very expensive
* there were a lot of players

Why do u think that for games like BF u now need to pay to get them laddered (except for the obvious gain in money for EA Razz

)?

Everyone has the right to setup a FDS indeed, but people should think it over before doing so.

While I agree with you both, I don't personally see a point of people hosting more servers when they clearly aren't going to get traffic. But if thats what they want then who are we to say no? It is there money/resources being used not ours.

If I may add my voice to this......

When we decided to do our server, there was really no point in doing so as there (as already said) are far to many servers for the amount of players out there..

What we did, was make our server a little different. It is as original as it could be. So because of our take on things, we always have a good number of players in the server.

This is a great game, it has stood the test of time!

So if you want to make your own server think USP! (Unique Selling Point) And people will come if it is good! Big Ups
