Hello,
If you host a server from your computer, it would be "free." I put that in quotes because, while there are no direct costs a server provider would charge, you will have to pay indirect costs like the electricity to keep your computer running and your internet bill. You can also pay for a company to host your server for you, such as www.gameservers.com or GT Premium. The tracking provided by GameTracker is free, though. ![]() |

Hello again,
Another potential cost might be getting a static IP. Many Internet Service Providers give home users dynamic IP addresses, meaning it will change frequently. You may be able to pay for a static IP from them but I am not sure how much that would cost. If you do not have a static IP, you'll have to be repeatedly adding the new address to the site, loosing your player stats each time. ![]() |
