Back From The Grave, to Valheim!

After 8 long years of silence, TorvServ is back from the grave. Rather than Minecraft, the game of the season is Valheim. Sidebar updated with server details. Maybe I'll get around to updating the other pages here soon, too.

Migration Completed

Sorry about the delay in getting the servers brought back up.

It is done now.

Minecraft: 64.237.39.85
Terraria: 64.237.39.85:7777

Minecraft

I realize it has been awhile since I posted an update here, or been active on the server, but I'll have to ask your forgiveness. The past few months have been rather hectic, with earning my bachelors, buying my first home, moving, getting married, and going on our honeymoon.

At this time, the Minecraft server is the only TorvServ server that is currently operational, although there is an affiliated organization that I am working with that will soon be launching an Arma II Insurgency server.

I have been looking into other options, and I am currently mulling over a couple of things in my mind. I believe that Starforge, (http://starforge.com,) will be a good game to run a server for, and I am very excited watching for a multiplayer-capable release to be available.

The debate, however, is where to host that server. I can either attempt to reorganize some personal servers and try to fit it in on one of those, OR bump the Minecraft server off into retirement. I am wondering how many people are currently using the Minecraft server, or plan on starting/getting back into it.

I would of course preserve a backup of the map, so that it could be re-instated at a future date if needed. This is a big step...the Minecraft server was the flagship of Torvserv, and has been the only server to run continuously since even BEFORE I had a name for this community.

So that's the situation; I don't feel like people are using it very much, and if that is true, I would like to be able to utilize that hardware for other purposes. Any opinions or comments that you would like to be heard can be submitted with the comment form under this post, or via the "Contact Admin" link at the side of this page.

Cheers all!

Downtime

Servers will be going down shortly for unscheduled maintenance. Shouldn't last more than a few hours at the most. I will post here when they come back up. EDIT: They are back up now.

DayZ

Been playing some DayZ recently, and recording some videos, (when I remember to.)

Here are a couple of the more memorable ones.

And finally, our "oh shit" moment as we crashed our chopper...

TorvServ Update

Just a brief update on what is going on with TorvServ. The Minecraft server is still running along just fine, no issues. The DayZ server had to be changed from US 348 to US 1561, due to an assignment conflict, but it is still running, and is very popular. Several people have found our website via the DayZ server, and one actually emailed me asking if he could buy DayZ server hosting from me, so I know that I must be doing something right with the hosting.

I am still working with our hosting company on their Minecraft hosting platform, and we are very close to a release date. If anybody is interested in getting into the Beta test of the platform, you can contact me using the link on the right side of the page to let me know.

In the future, I still plan on running a Starforge server, whenever they get around to releasing a solid multiplayer build for it. There is supposed to be a new Alpha build sometime within the next week or so, so that is definitely something to look into.

Happy gaming to all!

Service is restored

It looks like our connection issues have been resolved and everything is up and running again at this time.

Thank you for your patience during this outage.
