TS3 & 2-core VPS question

[hybrid82]

I was wondering, if I obtain a TS3 server, but already have a 2-core VPS, could I integrate these 2 together? Or do they have to be on separate machines?

If it's an unmanaged server, yes, you can install anything you want within NFO TOS. If it's a managed server, you won't be able to do that I don't believe.

If you mean buying a TS3 server from NFO, then no. NFO cannot run their licensed TS3 servers on your unmanaged VDS. They also won't run TS3 on a managed game server only VDS to keep performance top notch.

You can download and install your own TS3 server onto your unmanaged VDS if you like. The unlicensed version allows a single 32 slot server, and the Non-profit license allows I think 2 virtual servers and 512 total slots now.

I have the free unlicensed version which allows a single 32 slot server, but need to expand and have more slots which is why I was wondering about this in the first place.

Currently this unlicensed version is on my 2-core VPS. So I was just curious if we end up purchasing 1 through NFO, if these 2 can integrate as opposed to being separate.

If a non-profit license allows 512 slots, that would be what I need, do you by chance know how much that license runs? I can't imagine a non-profit license being free that is...

A non-profit is free, but they're closed (http://npl.teamspeakusa.com/ts3npl.php) - make sure you read all NPL guidelines as if someone reports your server for breaking the guidelines, they'll blacklist it as I've been told.

NPLs are indeed free, but are approved on a case-by-case basis by the company that develops teamspeak, and applications for them aren't always open.

Currently applications for the TS3 NPL are closed http://npl.teamspeakusa.com/ts3npl.php
You can keep an eye out for when they are available again.

Carefully read the rules of approval, you can't have any website ads, or I hear even a donations section for your community. I was lucky enough to have an old blog style website I still owned the domain for, and I got the older license which allows 10 servers and 512 total slots.

Thank you. I just read that they are currently closed. I'll keep my eye out for when they re-open again.

Quick question though, when we register to obtain a NPL, do they ask for a website URL?

I plan on using this on my 2-core VPS which doesn't have any website on it at all, just my game servers.

I believe they do ask for a website URL, they did when I applied.

Yep, they ask for a website URL and a email on the same domain as the website to confirm it.
