Dedicated RAM

Post by roblikescake »

So i had this old desktop that i didnt use very often and ive decided to make it the dedicated server for hosting 24/7 Project Evolution. Heres what i need to know, once i move all my files over, how can i dedicated all of the ram to just the server? Doing this will lessen the lag when more players have joined. Please reply asap. Thanks.

I'd suggest giving up right now, as mono is a piece of shit.

lol thats true. i installed it last night and now its saying some parts of mono arent installed. im like really i just spent several hours installing that. im thinking of just trying the MineOS if fcraft supports it, as is it a linux based OS.

Whatever you do, don't try running it on CentOS. Fucking hopeless.

As far as MineOS and MineOS Crux, I believe with both you'd have to compile and try to run mono yourself, which is difficult at best on the more widely used/supported distros...

so ive gotten this to go a little bit further now. ive got mono reinstalled and working. but in the terminal when i type "mono fCraftConsole.exe" to launch the exe, it launches in the terminal instead of opening a new one. im fine with that its just odd lol. but now that ive got the server up and running again, i need to know, how can i dedicate all or most of the ram to the server? hoping fragmer knows the answer :p

Find an old salvage machine and rip out the memory to increase your rig's memory. Problem solved.

If you're running linux you should be able to run with a decent amount of players and maps. Especially if you're just running a console.
