OK if possible i am trying to find a free file host that will allow a 550mb upload limit at least, it will allow any file types to be uploaded, that has a mysql setup as well allows webhosting and php. I know the odds are low but i am looking for something like this so i can host my MMORPG game for beta testing.

Edit: if anything i need a cheap host if possible that will allow me these things, as well as allowing copyrigthed material, because if i was going to pay i was going to go through servage.net but they dont allow copyrighted material

550mb?? No where is going to allow uploads that big!

ok i did make an edit to my first post, do you know of any cheap paying ones that will allow these things and allow copyrighted material to be hosted

It's illegal (I think) to host copyrighted material, that isn't yours!

...so meaning that i have to host it myself if i want to run beta testing on my game..i dont have the $4,000 to get a server....

Oh sorry, I thought you meant copyrighted to other people. If It's copyrighted to you, most hosters will allow you to. It's only when it's copyrighted to someone else.

no, its my own game, but any ideas, because i have looks for a while now and have found nothing thats cheap or that will allow my game to be hosted/....

Unfortunately, I think you're out of luck. Hosting an MMORPG will take up massive amounts of bandwidth & CPU usage. Assuming the game will be popular, you may have trouble finding a VPS to host it on, even.

well its not going to be put up yet, its just going to be temp for beta testing so i can work out al the bugs that acure when another person is going to be on it as well and also to test the feature that i cant access alone.

To run an MMORPG you'll need ports opened and programs installed; something no non-VPS host I know of will do.

i'm using Dylan's hosting service, and i registered a domain form yahoo, do any of you know how i can direct the nameservers to my host?

Can you link me to where you got the domain? If you paid for it,m you should be able to do it in the 'member' admin panel

i got it from yahoo business

http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/

If you login there, it should be fine! ^_^

fine should be able to edit the 'name servers' failing that, read the help?

i'm going to guess taht this is it:

yns1.yahoo.com

edit: ok no i have both sets of server names for yahoo and CoreXHosting, now what?

i hope i did it right by changing the ones on yahoo to those of that from CoreXHosting

If you changed them to what you're meant to change them to, it'll take up to 24 hours to 'move' so just bare with it!

ya it now says its under construction so i guess i did it right

Just double checked and did an dns lookup you've set it up right

so how much longer till i have my domain name running, do you know?

I thought it was running didn't you say?

i have i bought, and everything and now i'm just waiting for it to stop saying under construction, see i get this: http://www.divineshadowsonline.com/

mainly i just want to know if i had done it right

works fine for me!

ya but thats not my home page.....my home age is the same one i sent you in the pm (Its just a test home page of course)

The page that loads for me is your Deluxe Anime Website!

ya yahoo support says the same, they told me to try to clear my cache and cookies and try again, but yet nothing, but yet i still see this?

Edit: i'd like to know, can you test this for me and tell me if something comes up?

http://divineshadowsonline.com/support

in the support directory a forum shows up, on your main domain the site shows up.

so basically what could be causing it so that i cant view my own domain and everyone else can?

Your ISP hasn't updated to recognize the domain / nameservers

i see so by tomorrow it should be running/
