GTA SA ~ Home Server setup?

[Mortymoose]

We still revert back to playing good old GTA SA MP at home. We have three PC's on the lan and this worked well, but it got boring, So we went onto the hosted MP games and enjoyed that. But the ping was soooooo bad, the dude in the states had already, shot you, gone too sleep, had breakfast and back in Africa his bullet just arrived....

The friends of my kids in our town want into the action, the cousins next door are playing, but the ping...

SO I reckon if there was some way that I could setup up a local server, then everyone in our town could logon and have a low ping....

However , what I do not know, can I just setup a server in my lounge, linked to my ADSL line and give out my ip to the locals or do I have to use a hosting service in neighbouring SA?

I recommend www.no-ip.com for a Dynamic DNS.

I can host a dedicated 24/7 server for you, Mortymoose (if you want it). Which gamemode would you like?
