Hello FTB fans alike !
Currently, my friends and I are playing on FTB Ultimate 1.0.1 from a home computer (Connected through Hamachi). We have at most 4 to 10 players connected at any time (whitelisted), but we play on a lot of restrictions due to our host's computer disk not writing properly. We had a lot of crashes due to chunks being generated (while exploring), hopping into different dimensions (we can't have more than 1 or rarely 2 players on in different dimensions which includes the Nether, the End & Twilight Forest), the server lag from chunk loaders and giant mob farms, and more recently an almost definite closing of the server when one of my friend attempted to dive into THE very first Mystcraft Age. (I had to edit his .dat file to set his position somewhere else. My host's computer couldn't handle creating a new dimension).
So, we'd like to host our server somewhere else on a dedicated server. Problem is... I don't know where to start looking ! There are many different websites, prices and options ! I don't know how much RAM I need, what kind of server specs I should look for, should I look into SSD, etc.
I'm looking for FTB support (obviously), minimum of 10 player slots, webhosting/teamspeak not required (we're all on skype anyways) and location in the US/Canada ideally. Something to get rid of our restricted FTB experience and be able to fully travel between dimensions without crashing the whole server repeatedly.
Note that we'll probably restrict Mystcraft to a few dedicated ages (mining, cave exploration, flatlands) up to 5 ages with one weekly wiped for pure exploration and discovery purposes and keep stressing to a minimum.
We're interested in mcpowerhosting.com, but I'd like some community advice before choosing a bundle.
Thanks ! (and please move the thread if it's not in the appropriate section)
TL: DR Any ftb ultimate server host services out there who can support mystcraft well for 10 players max ?
