    Great, then we might have even more good servers as 'OAG' running. Great video, and your English was good! :)

    Nice tutorial! Though you might want to change your Steam password (since it was right on the screen there).

    I linked your tutorial on the bottom of the <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/wiki/index.php/Dedicated_Server" target="_blank">dedicated server wiki page</a>, but this thread probably needs to be stickied too.

    oldassgamers, I've watched the entire video. From what I understand, you're using a tool for which you need a paid subscription in order to use the functionality you describe. Next to that, the information you provide is very specific to the current build and will very likely change in the near future.

    To those that suggested it; because of these reasons, I find this video unfit to be stickied. A different (and perhaps in this situation, better) way to make guides like these is with text and screenshots. It's much easier to edit those when information and tools get updated. Perhaps you're also familiar with a variant of software that doesn't require payment?

    None the less, it's definitely worth being mentioned in the existing stickies. Good job!

    Which means a significant part of the things he does in the video won't work with the free version.

    Thanks for giving your thoughts to our community, now here is mine thoughts for you and to everyone else.

    At current stage it's up-to-date, once it's un-updated then it's understandible to remove it from sticky. But for now, to all the new potential server operators this tutorial is very vital. because many new people don't have the experience to create a server and don't understand good english.

    I like the video format better than text and picture and I bet there are alot of people that prefer it that way.
    and I still vote this to be sticked I understand that in the future it MAY change but this works perfectly for the current build and just incase u can allways set the ns2 version number in the topic name.

    I agree that video's have some merits over text and screenshots. I'll consider the sticky request. Please leave the discussion on that matter as it is.

    I would like this stickied as well. In my opinion the video format offers some great benefits over a plain text tutorial especially if its as long and information rich as this one. Also, as stated before, if the video becomes irrelevant just un-stickie or remove it.

    Just my 2 cents on the issue.

    Just a quick update.

    Once UWE has implemented all the server changes. (refering once they remove the server.xml file). I'll remake the entire video tutorial from scratch. I'll stick with small videos instead of one big video. :D
