Hosting4Opensim.com was founded in December 2022 by two friends from Mexico and Brazil with one goal: to provide reliable, feature-rich, and professional hosting services for the OpenSimulator community. Our mission is to help grid owners launch, manage, and grow their virtual worlds with dependable hosting, powerful tools, and friendly support.

Today, Hosting4Opensim proudly hosts more than 10 OpenSimulator grids and continues to grow with the needs of the OpenSim community. Because the grids we host may change over time, we focus on the quality of our service rather than listing individual customer grids.

We offer complete grid setups, private grid hosting, commercial grid hosting, money server options, region hosting, custom web tools, and managed hosting services. Whether you are starting a private world, building a community, or operating a commercial virtual grid, we provide the server power, features, and support needed to help your project succeed.

Robust/Region Server Package

Every new grid begins with our Robust/Region Server package. This is the main server where your grid services run, and it also allows you to host regions directly on the same server.

The Robust/Region Server package starts at $100 per month and includes:

• 20 GB DDR4 ECC RAM
• 4 cores / 8 threads
• 200 GB SSD M.2 NVMe disk
• 1 Gbps / 1 Gbps unlimited network
• Recommended max regions: 20
• 200 GB Object Storage included
• 1 TB attached backup storage included
• 2 standard regions included free
• Full access to included grid features and management tools

As your grid grows, you can add additional Add-on Servers at any time to increase your region capacity and continue scaling your grid. All grids begin with the Robust/Region Server package and can expand as needed.

If you require additional hard drive space for your Robust server, upgrades are available. Since grid assets are stored using Object Storage, most customers do not need a very large main server drive unless they have large databases or regions with a high amount of stored content.

Regions and Expansion

Region pricing is separate from the main Grid package. Region performance may vary depending on region size, content, scripts, and overall usage. Additional region servers can be added as your grid grows, giving you the flexibility to expand your world over time.

Custom Grid Tools

Hosting4Opensim provides a powerful set of custom tools designed to make managing an OpenSimulator grid easier, more organized, and more professional. These tools are built to help grid owners, region owners, and users manage their grid experience from both the website and in-world.

Each Grid package includes a custom website with an Admin portal and Customer portal. These portals allow for easier grid management, customer access, account tools, region services, and overall administration of your virtual world.

Our custom Region Coordinates Map helps users find available map locations when adding new regions. Instead of manually searching for open coordinates, users can easily locate available spaces on the grid map and choose the best position for their new region.

The Parcel Reservation System gives grid owners and users an organized way to reserve parcels or land areas. This helps make land planning, rentals, community layouts, and commercial region management much easier.

Region owners also receive access to a dedicated control panel where they can reboot regions, create backups, restore previous backups, and generate region maps. This gives region owners more control over their own regions without needing to contact support for every basic task.

Grid packages also include a custom login page and splash page. This page can display slideshows, grid statistics, region information, helpful starting locations, and important grid announcements for users before they enter the world.

Our Grid Map feature allows users to browse and view regions across your grid from the website, making it easier for visitors and residents to discover locations, communities, businesses, and events.

The included Partner System allows users to marry and divorce within the grid, adding more social and community features for residents.

We also include a Money Module with support for Podex, Gloebits, or private currency options. This gives grid owners the ability to build an in-world economy, support transactions, sell land, and allow users to buy and sell goods or services inside the grid.

All Grid packages include 200 GB of Object Storage for storing grid assets, with upgradeable auto-scaling options. This helps keep assets separate from the main server drive and gives your grid more room to grow.

With these custom tools included, Hosting4Opensim provides more than server hosting. We provide a complete grid management platform built specifically for OpenSimulator communities, creators, businesses, and grid owners.

Support and Experience

Our team has over 10 years of experience in OpenSimulator development and server management. We understand the needs of grid owners, region owners, creators, communities, and commercial projects.

Customer support is a major part of our service. Hosting4Opensim provides unlimited free customer support, and we are happy to work with you if your grid requires a special setup or custom configuration.

Managed Hosting

For customers who prefer a hands-off experience, we also offer managed hosting services. With managed hosting, our team can help maintain and manage your grid for you. This service is available for an additional monthly fee.

With Hosting4Opensim Grid packages, you receive more than hosting. You receive a complete OpenSimulator grid platform with built-in tools for users, region owners, and administrators.

Please note: All Grid packages are non-refundable. Region pricing is separate and may vary depending on your grid needs.
