Available Grids

Overview

A grid is a collection of regions managed by an individual or a group - several grids are 'public' grids, which allow you to connect your own regions into the network. SimHost maintains a relationship with the grids listed below to allow you to connect your regions to them.

Most grids have an independent terms of service - this is in addition to the standard SimHost terms. Please read these teams carefully, as you will need to obey them to maintain your grid connection.

If you are a grid operator and wish for SimHost to be able to offer connections to your grid as part of our packages, please contact us via our support department.
