open.mp VPS Hosting

An open.mp VPS is a virtual server with full root access that only you control. The Gameserver Installer sets up open.mp in one click, and you add whatever your server needs: MySQL, a Discord bot, a UCP website or a test server. A managed open.mp server from ZAP-Hosting is the simpler route with a ready game panel, but without root. Choose the VPS when you want the whole system in your hands.

• Full root and SSH access to the whole system
• open.mp set up via the Gameserver Installer
• Managed open.mp hosting stays the no-root alternative

In most cases, yes. open.mp is built to be compatible with SA-MP clients and scripts. After the one-click install, you only move your .amx gamemode, filterscripts and plugins over via SFTP and carry your settings into the open.mp config. Recompiling with the open.mp includes helps catch outdated functions. open.mp server configuration guide

• Gamemode, filterscripts and plugins via SFTP
• Players keep using their SA-MP client
• Your MySQL database moves along with the files

That depends more on your scripts than on your slots. A lean freeroam or deathmatch gamemode is light, while a roleplay server with MySQL, many vehicles, objects and NPCs, plus a website on the same VPS, needs noticeably more. Start with a package that fits your current setup, watch RAM and CPU in the panel statistics and move to a larger VPS when your community grows.

• Plan for MySQL, bots and web services too
• Running a test server in parallel? Add headroom
• Panel statistics show live RAM and CPU load

Live prices for every package are shown in the pricing section and depend on RAM, CPU, storage and location. Choose a term of 3, 30, 90 or 180 days or 1 year; longer terms lower the monthly price. With ZapX Pass there's also a Lifetime option: buy once instead of renting. Payments run through Stripe, for example with PayPal or credit card.

• Terms from 3 days to 1 year
• Lifetime with ZapX Pass: buy once
• Payments through Stripe

Setup is automated, so your VPS is usually online within 60 seconds after checkout. The Gameserver Installer then sets up open.mp in one click, and you upload your own gamemode via SFTP. If you have ZapX Pass, the ZapX AI Agent can optionally explain the config or the firewall rule for UDP port 7777 in chat; every change waits for your confirmation.

ZAP-Hosting offers VPS locations in Europe and America, and you pick the one closest to your players when you order. Latency depends on that distance, so choose where most of your community plays. Many North American communities start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles; the same choice applies wherever your players are.

Yes. Your VPS is covered by always-on, game-optimized DDoS protection with PletX, built for communities that cannot afford DDoS interruptions during peak hours. On top of that, you can set your own network firewall rules, for example to allow only UDP 7777 and SSH.

• Always-on, game-optimized DDoS protection
• Own firewall rules on top
• No extra setup needed for the protection

Yes. You get full root access via SSH and SFTP, plus a browser console in the panel that works even when SSH is unreachable. A daily automatic system Backup is included with your VPS. With ZapX Pass you can also create your own Backups and restore them, for example before a big gamemode update, and roll back if a script breaks your server. How Backups work
