'''CollabVM Server 2.0''' is an open source server and complete rewrite of the 1.x core which is intended to be a proper replacement to the former [[CollabVM Server 1.x]], but was discontinued after four months due to rushed development, creative burn-out and 4 years of broken promises and procrastination. It used to power CollabVM.

CollabVM Server 2.0 currently runs on Windows, Linux, macOS and BSD, but binaries must be built manually on the latter two.

* <s>[[CollabVM Server 2.0/Getting Started|Getting Started with CollabVM Server 2.0]]</s> '''''DO NOT FOLLOW THIS GUIDE, USE [[CollabVM Server 1.x]] INSTEAD. IT's WAY BETTER AND NOT MEMLEAKING GARBAGE.'''''

==New Features==
*Bugs, crash exploits, malpractices and memory leaks
*Account registrations / username reservations.
*Audio support.
*Official Windows 7/Server 2008 R2+ support (experimental support available in 1.2 as well).
*RDP and VNC support (RDP support is for VirtualBox, other software will likely work fine).
*Support for QEMU, VMWare, and VirtualBox. Anything with VNC/RDP support will work (even real machines).

==Automated builds==
Another new feature of collab-vm-server 2.0 is that it now has automated builds, meaning that collab-vm-server 2.0 binaries will be automatically built so you don't have to compile it yourself. You can download automated builds of collab-vm-server 2.0 from the following locations:

*[https://github.com/Cosmic-Sans/collab-vm-server/releases GitHub releases] (recommended)

==Minimum Requirements==

*RAM:
**Linux and Windows: At least 512 MB of free RAM on the server (Recommended: at least 2GB)

*Processor:
**Any mid/late-2000s processor (Recommended: Any modern CPU) or newer. AMD-V/VT-x is recommended (not required).

*Space: At least 200 MB for collab-vm-server (5-10 GB of free space for VMs)

==Operating Systems==
===BSD===
====FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD====
