Hey all,
I sent an email to "rentals@nuclearfallout.net" asking for some server pricing information, hope that was the right address
And I hope we can work something out as I've been reading the forums and looking over the website information and everything looks solid.
One thing I wanted to ask here is, do you all have fast download .bz2 files compression for fast downloads?
If so, how does that go about? Do I send the files to you all in order to be added to the fast download server or is this something I would be able to do?
Ok but that's a little vague.
I know I can FTP files to the server, that's fine.
With our current provider, I FTP the files to the server and I also have to send him a zipped file containing all the files I just added to the server so he can add them to the "fast download .bz2" file server.
That way the maps, materials, sounds, player skin....ect..ect downloads like super quick.
I really like this function and is a requirement for any provider we look into.
We support FAD, and we actually do it more intelligently. With our system, you'd just need to click the "File sync" button on the Website tab, once you've created your website. No need to FTP files twice or email anything. It figures out what files are missing from your website and copies everything over for you, then compresses to .bz2 what it can.
1) Order server.
2) Setup website (in website tab) including subdomain request
3) Setup instantly, for example your clan tag = COOL, your subdomain webaddress may be COOLCLAN.nuclearfallout.net.
4) It has 2 GB of free space
5) Upload files/map/sprites/models/etc... to server
6) Open website tab --> Sync Files
7) 5 minutes later every file you uploaded to your game server is now on your web server for fast download. Also, your game server will automatically be configured for fast download when you use the Sync Files feature.
Warning (Current customer): It doesn't do a perfect job with everything, IE: some maps are sometimes not synced even if they are custom...
