OK, thank you for reply guys. At the moment I am running both servers from home for testing purposes but looking ahead at wider testing I see the need to have dedicated servers hosted on it's own machine, 24 hrs a day. Atlantic.net is getting good reviews and I did check out GoDaddy pricing, it's just that I am not sure if there are any price or otherwise advantages to go with any of them instead of with proven Softlayer.
On that note, I have asymmetric 100MB TWC connection, and can provide much better dedicated server from home than what I would be able to afford from hosting companies. How many players I can reasonably expect to host concurrently at that bandwidth, if we assume that I can provide as many servers as needed?

Once consumer gigabit internet becomes a normal thing around most major areas, rather than exceptions, then I suspect we'll see an influx of server hosting companies.WIP: Science Project - A collection of middle school through advanced college level science theory and formula-based functions for use in your own projects

Sorry guys.. Didn't mean to start a Pro - Con Godaddy.. just saying.. for me... 6 bucks a month.. and 24 voice support REALLY met my needs.
As to how to build the server.. follow the Doc.... don't skip ANY steps in your hurry to see it work. I have lost DAYS by not reading.. rereading... then reading the docs again. CodeSpartan has been VERY helpful.. especially when I have let my impatience over ride my following the directions. He recenters me.. and points me in the right direction. And then gently reminds me.. "That's in the documentation, if you need it."
IE: The Launcher,..... oh man.... CS was helpful... and then gently referred me to the doc that answered my question... This is how it turned out.
Thank you CS for all your help.

Originally posted by Neochrome View PostI am a bit confused about rationale of having MySQL on a separate server. I understand that most of game traffic will be conducted between players and the game server, with MySQL server being accessed relatively sporadically on character creation, changes in inventory and quests etc. I guess my question is, is the network bandwidth the bottleneck for the simultaneous number of players or is the main limitation due to processing power of the server?
You can host MySQL on the same server as the game, but for me personally, it's just much easier to use the same MySQL hosting where I host websites. Webhosting providers are cheap and already have MySQL, phpmyadmin, ftp, etc installed, so you don't have to install them yourself. Besides, the Softlayer VPS I'm using for the game server is the cheapest one, so I don't want to put any additional load on it. Network bandwidth is not the bottleneck here.

Hey!
Really nice work, good to see that any developer byhimself can nowdays create MMO with great graphics.
I have some ideas that i'll mayby implement thanks to UE4 and your KIT.
Is there any point to migrate to postgersql and java as im more familiar these.
I just like them more. Postgersql has so many advanced features and java is fast and easy to read.

Hi, I purchased your project recently but cant seem to open it. I downloaded it and built the UE 4.9.1 Source to run the project but it will not compile, either through the engine or visual studio.

this is the error i am getting from visual studio when i try to compile it manually, I have checked the varest plugin folder all dependencies and all #included files are accounted for including the file the error says is missing, can anyone help.
EDIT: Solved, downloaded clean copy of latest varest plugin and replaced only the files that were already in the project folder. Thank you for this amazing project CodeSpartan, and for the help with my issue.Last edited by doomreaper792; 10-04-2015, 02:50 AM.

Is this still alive? It is updated to 4.9. It should be. I am considering purchasing it and I hope it still is being developed and supported.
I downloaded the launcher and it is stuck in "Deleting temp files" and PLAY button is disabled. I started it as Admin. But still not able to test it...
EDIT: After seing the dates and reading previous posts I am guessing it is being fixed for the 4.9.1
