Nero's Server???
« on: May 09, 2008, 12:29:30 am »
I have heard allot about Nero and Nero's server and Nero's game.qvm. But i don't understand the Nero's server part. Is there really a Nero server. If there is how can i see it. And if  there isn't a Nero server please tell me.

                        Question 2:
My friend has a server he wants to know:

How to keep server up without keeping your computer on all day while waisting electricity and how to make his server with the [] thing at the begging to make server at top. Can you help me? ???

For Question 2:
I believe you have to keep your computer on to run a server, I know there are ways to do that but not in away you or your friend would understand.  Most of these 24/7 servers are ran off Dedicated servers with no downtime or hosted from there home on a separate box.  About the squares I doubt anyone will tell you that due to the fact everyone hates them and it places your server at the top of the list.

        For Question 1: 
Nero only turns on his server when he is testing something.


And as Oblivion said, probably no one will tell you how to put the squares. So lose all hope.

If you can't work out the boxes, then you probably fail on much of the prerequisite knowledge needed to run a server.
And your computer can't do things while its not turned on.  But unless you have a really good net connection you may as well just turn it off.

What's the recommended bandwidth (upload/download) speeds? And how much would each player on average require in bandwidth?

Not much bandwidth is needed, pt1-3 use ~300GB/m.
What matters is the latency and what kind of packet shaping your ISP do etc.
Also worth remembering that many ISP disallow running servers in there TOS.
