A Few Questions About Managed Windows VDS

Post by SwaggeR »

1. Why can't Minecraft run on a Managed Windows VDS?

2. Will B3 (Big Brother Bot) ever be implemented into a managed install?

3. Will there be any AlterIW Net servers for sale, or be part of the managed installs list for Windows?

4. How come only certain games can only be chosen instead of all of them?

Thank you in advance for answering my questions. Sorry if these questions have already been answered also.
In case you've nevered heard of AlterIW Net. http://alteriw.net

Why can't Minecraft run on a Managed Windows VDS?
Due to how much Minecraft access the HD, we chose to use Linux as it handles that process much better and does not cause performance loss to other users.
Will B3 (Big Brother Bot) ever be implemented into a managed install?
This has been suggested several times but I do not think any progress has been made.
Will there be any AlterIW Net servers for sale, or be part of the managed installs list for Windows?
For legal reasons, we cannot sell AlterIW Net servers, nor will they be apart of a managed install. You will need an unmanaged set up to try this, and do it at your own risk.
How come only certain games can only be chosen instead of all of them?
If you are referring to what games you can install when you first order the VDS, those are just our most popular or most requested server files. If you need other files added you can ask us to add them for you. Open a request and we will get you set up. We are also working on a system which will allow users to install many more game files right from the control panel.
