Run 2 server with different Season and files

[R0N]

hello good community!

i just wonder if it is possible to run 2 different serverfiles in one machine?

for example:

TitanTech Season 6 Episode 3
&
zTeam EX802

Can we run it on 1 machine? and both use same IP?

cheers!

Yes, it's possible. You just need to use different ports.

What about the database names maybe he doesn't know ?:D

I think that he already knows, that he will needs separated database for each server.

You need to change a lot of things, like DB's everywhere, which is a pain in the ass for creating future bugs, not to mention that you need a sky rocket PC to run 2 servers on the same machine with players on them, why would you do that? stick with one version my advise.

good luck

it is possible,
use different ports,
different databases,
and you will be fine.

Sky rocket PC? What do you mean with Sky rocket PC? You can get powerful dedicated server what will handle more than 2 servers for ~50 euro per month. You really don't need anything special, if it won't be a server with 10k players online. 8+GB RAM, some Quad-core CPU, 100+GB HDD, 1 Gbps connection and it can handle 2 servers without any problems.

Yes, if you have money to pay for something they play for free, sure.... but if you don't, to run 1 server with 500 players or 1000 with NO LAG at all (for example walk in a town full of players), you need at least quad-core 3,5 GB and 8 GB Ram3 or 4, if you want to run 2 servers on same PC performance you will need eight core and 16 GB Ram to run smoothly.
Don't mind me, but i see server games performance different, if you don't mind a bit more lagy, sure, do 2 servers on same PC, and see what happens when you have at least 200 on both servers.

Good day.

for example walk in a town full of players

This is not related to server, but to your own PC where you are running client

And no, you don't need 8-core CPU to host 2 servers... Currently we are running 4 servers (each with 5 sub-servers) on 4-core CPU @ 3,20 GHz and it's using 10-20% of it. Also, we have 32 GB RAM, but in use is not even 50% of it So please, don't write, if you don't have enough knowledge.

actually we used dedicated server for our Cabal, RO and MU, since our MU is on a VM we can increase RAM so there will no no problem about that, about the database name of course i knew it, the only thing is if its possible, since i setup S6EP3 but we already have players, and i wanna try to setup EX802 on the same machine without affecting the gameplay of our players

if i change ports, how about the client of EX802? as i know client only needs an IP and serial(which not really matters) without having ports, how this client connect to the prescribe server?

[jacubb]

You will have to change port also in client, otherwise it will keep trying to connect to your S6E3 server instead. But I am not sure, how zClient is working, if there is a config for Connect Server port or you will have to find offset in main.exe and edit it.

Superb. I alwayswanted to know the answer to this. Thanksm

[R0N]

thanks alot, this thread may help also others.
one more question how can we change port on the main?

you can change the port in common.z using zConfigurator also included from the released. (44405) make it 44406 or your desire port. (serial,version,ip is modified by zconfigutor)no need to hex your main.exe


change ConnectServerInfo in zmultiserver (55557) make it 55558 or your desire port.

in zconnectserver settings. search for
ServerPort = 44405 replace with a new port you used in common.z (44406)
UpdatePort = 55557 replace with a new port you used in zmultiserver/settings (55558)
