Hello everyone! i come to you for some help, i used to run a Minecraft server through a VDS on windows unmanaged.
I recently purchased a Full Dedicated machine on windows managed, and wasn't aware i wouldn't be able to have a Minecraft server on managed only unmanaged.
So now im stuck with paying for another OS change, and i come to you all for help to get it right.
I am now forced to switch to Linux Managed to get a Minecraft server, can you guys give me advice on a setup that will run Minecraft/TF2 efficiently. (How do i get extreme accelerated? and does it make a difference in fps games)
Thanks again.
That sucks! But as far as I remember - I do recall seeing a statement that says Minecraft does not operate on managed Windows (just as I cannot install Minecraft on my managed VDS). I don't remember where I saw it.. but I do know it's there! I'll probably find it once I start browsing in a few, since I just got home from work.
You will not go wrong with choosing linux managed, either way. As soja said - you unfortunately do not get to choose the flavor. But this is fine to me when it comes to the managed servers here at NFO; they always give me better results nonetheless.
