Rent an Assetto Corsa Server

Yes, each driver needs the game individually on Steam. The dedicated server itself runs independently and stays reachable at all times.

Assetto Corsa does not need much — 2 GB handles full grids comfortably on most tracks. Only sprawling modded tracks with a lot of slots call for extra memory.

Yes, both are supported — every driver needs the same mods installed. CSP (Custom Shaders Patch) and Sol for weather and visuals run client-side; the server itself needs nothing extra for that.

In pickup mode drivers come and go as they please — good for open sessions. In booking mode everyone reserves a slot in advance, which suits organised races and leagues.

The easiest route is Content Manager, where your server shows up in the list — or direct connect with IP and port. Your own subdomain also makes you easy to find.

With booking mode, each driver reserves a slot, name, and car in advance. entry_list.ini sets starting positions and vehicles, and the result logs from the server give you the basis for scoring — tools like stracker help with the breakdown.

Every mcfreehost server ships with its own address such as yourserver.mc.mcfreehost.com right from the start. Rename it anytime from the dashboard — no ticket required.

Monitoring and database add-ons — Uptime Kuma, MariaDB, phpMyAdmin, Game Server Watcher — never carry a surcharge. For music and chat bots, the first slot you activate is included; every additional bot is billed on top, and the dashboard shows the exact cost before you switch it on.

Typical initial setup: about 3 minutes. Queues or large installations can take longer. Larger Steam installs can take a bit longer depending on the game.

No — you are on a subscription that renews monthly, and you can cancel it from the dashboard whenever you like; the same goes for turning off automatic renewal.

You choose the location at checkout: Germany (Falkenstein and Limburg) or France (Roubaix) — all in the EU, connected to the major European exchanges. Low pings for players across Germany, Austria and Switzerland at both locations, and solid latency for the rest of Europe.

The best provider is the one that shows you what you get before you pay: RAM, slots, location, price and cancellation terms. Here the price and resources are visible in the configurator before checkout, there is no minimum term and setup is automated — feel free to compare that with other offers. Assetto Corsa starts here at 3.98 EUR per month, and setup typically takes about 3 minutes.

Self-hosting costs power, time and a machine that runs around the clock; port forwarding, updates and backups are on you. A rented server is online within minutes, keeps running when your PC is off, and updates and backups are included; data-center DDoS protection is included at every location. For one or two friends on a single evening self-hosting is often fine — for a persistent world, renting pays off.

Yes, you can do it yourself in the customer area using a slider. An upgrade takes effect immediately: you only pay the prorated difference for the remaining term, and the new price applies from the next renewal. A downgrade takes effect on the next renewal date. Your world, settings and subdomain are kept, and depending on the game, a restart is required afterwards. With monthly payment and a minimum term, the change is only possible once that term has ended, and for games with a slot-based plan it is not available.
