That escalated really quickly mind you

Uhm, hello people. Long story short, Sidewinder Server will close for time unknown.

Won't get into much detail, but Microsoft started charging way much for the VPS services i was using, and my Sponsorship money for that is running low.

To all that have made an appearance, I thank you.

Server will close in 01:00 AM 04/12/2018 GMT -3

How much were you being charged? We used to run a 2GB RAM VPS for around 9-12 USD a month through our provider.

My VPS was running a dual core Opteron with 4GB RAM (originally it was a single core with 2GB, but since they didn't charge me for compute hours back then and i had sponsorship money, i upgraded it for 12 bucks).

Now Microsoft charges you for Compute hours and Network Usage. I had not only the server running there but i also had a Discord bot as well. Not frequently used and only in one Discord server, but still.

Starting from 26 March, they charged me 55 USD for Compute hours and fees worth 34 more, for a total of 277 Compute hours (supposedly free, as they state in both Dreamspark and Azure for Students itself, the first 750 Hours of a VM should be free) and 6,55GB total download plus 1.83GB total upload. From the 100 USD i received from Microsoft Sponsorship, i only have 10 D:

Our VPS provider, Virmach, charges a flat rate of 10 bucks for a 2 Gig Server and they've been reliable and helpful. This setup is what we used on our old server before we downgraded due to our prior departure from YS for a while. You can upgrade (or downgrade) it as you wish at any time as well.

That's not his point. His point is he expected his BPS to be free through student deals from Microsoft and therefore cost him nothing.

I know that, yes. All I'm doing is saying - "hey, if you can afford 10 bucks, give this a shot".

Hello everyone!

Sidewinder server is open again, now powered by a Raspberry Pi!
The usability of server-side functions are limited due to the way the server (an x86 software) is dynamically recompiled to run on the Pi (ARM). So, for the time being, THE SERVER WILL RUN ON STOCK ASSETS ONLY.

Feel free to suggest aircraft and events. I'd be really proud to have it on the server, should it be a really cool idea!


See you in the skies!

Sidewinder Server is now being rebranded to "CVW-171 Test Server". The dynamic will change as a result. Keep an eye on this for future updates.
