Dont host this with your local PC dude, you will absolutely trash your network.
Also leaves you open to a LOT of threats.
If you want to host a snazzy page, free, just use Github Pages in Repo Settings.
Since you bought a domain, you can use that as the domain too.

I know what pages is, however it's static, and since this site is a Git alternative for me... It doesn't work with just HTML. I use comcast, so my wifi is already bad enough anyways. Yes it leaves me open to threats, however I'm running this through cloudflare, and have this running in its own virtual environment. I think I'm safe enough, at least for now. Also, now that I have SSL I think it'll be a lot better in terms of security.

I could literally fry your internet in 10 seconds...
This isnt like a website, your essentially letting 100's of randoms online connect directly to your ROUTER and your system...
I could load your router with port threats resulting in overheating and I could DDoS that page of yours with L7 resulting in your entire internet gone...

And I dont get what your asking, github pages can do: HTML/CSS/JS...

Can GitHub pages deploy war files, do php, or anything that isn't static? No.

No they can't thats why u dont be a cheap ass and buy hosting, its not worth using XAMP e.t.c of ur own systems.

True.. and nice stuff.. but don't host on your router for public use. He's right. A bad enough DDOS can damage hardware..
Its not even hard, Cloudflare blocks almost nothing as a free user, even paid it blocks almost nothing, its kinda sad tbh.

I use cloudflare myself.

An L3 + L7 attack for 60 seconds could fry his router

literally anything would work for your case, you could probably even get away with using a seedbox (not 100% sure, mine supports www but not sure if it renders php).
Namecheap has good options its what I use
OVH is good too
BlazingFast is absolutely fucking terrible, trust me stay away
SnTHosting is also pretty fking trash
stay far away from Hostinger, absolutely terrible Terms and Conditions, basically a scam imo

@Create_ you can deploy war files with Heroku, and it is free. I host all my Java webapps there. Spring boot is even easier, you just literally use git and it builds it all for you.
This doesn't use war files, I was just using that as an example against GitHub pages. Heroku on the other hand does everything in it's power to get you to spend money on it.

Oh ok. I haven't spent any money on it yet :-) You can set your own domain name for free (if you already own it) and that's the only thing I would spend money on.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
