(Note that these are not hard limits for player counts, just suggestions for the best performance, based on experiences with many server providers on different grades of hardware.) CodZ) and/or highly detailed maps, so that maximum number will often be lower. Lower player counts are recommended for complex gamemodes (E.g. This is a limit built into Pavlov itself, no server will allow players to join over 24. A ~4Ghz CPU will comfortably support 24 players.A ~2.5Ghz CPU will comfortably support a 10 player server.Not having enough RAM is a common cause of server crashes. More RAM is recommended for larger maps, higher player counts, or complex gamemodes. 2GB RAM + 1GB RAM per each additional server with 10 players.Recommend not running on 'minimal' images as some tools are missing. Ubuntu 15.04 x86 is known to fail to install using this guide. Ubuntu 18.04 x86_64, Ubuntu 19/04 amd64, Ubuntu 20.04, and Rocky Linux 8 are confirmed working. This can be running as a VM under windows, but this will increase the complexity of the setup beyond this guide. Pavlovserver can only be hosted under Linux. If you don't want to go through the hassle yourself and want to pay for a hosting service Arctic VR (PC and Shack) and Horde (Shack) provide a server hosting services and are trusted in the community. If you don't have a team, discord community, or group of friends ready to play on your server, chances are it will go unused. If you are new to linux and accessing your server from Windows, highly suggest using MobaXterm as your SSH client as that can make required editing of text files easier using built in editor instead of the native linux command line editors.Īnd finally, ask yourself why you want to setup a server? If you look at the list, there are many, many more servers than players. Suggest using nano and reading guide here Editing text files via commandline is often a challenge. If you have no experience using bash, maybe start here. This guide assumes you know the basics of using a bash terminal: ssh'ing into a server, running bash commands, editing text files, etc. If you are considering hosting from home, please read that section of the wiki first. Possible to run with other distros, but some of the commands won't work and you will need to know enough to figure out the software install of dependencies on your own.
