Hi all:

I am considering hosting TW games and am not sure what I need. First I am not able to get a static IP address. I am using Earthlink and not sure how I can get around this.

2nd: What is the difference between TWGS and TW2002gold?

IS Tw2002gold the actual TW software and the TWGS the means to get to the game software? Sort of a client server situation?

thanks,

Obmanta

You can get an forwarding service like http://www.dyndns.org/ that will update to point to whatever your dynamic IP has changed to. 2nd, TWGS is a game server that will run tw2002 games. Gold is an addon that lets you customize ships, planet, and aliens, as well as add some more general universe features. To run currently supported games, you'll need a license for TWGS and tw2002. I would also recommend a gold registration, just for the added features it will give you.
