RV House is intended to give Re-Volt players an online meeting place where races can be easily hosted and joined.
Some of the features that make RV House better for online Re-Volt players:
- Direct settings for Re-Volt options from the hosted rooms: laps, pickups, players
- Easy sharing of custom tracks (using Re-Volt Track Manager)
- Not dependent on any server (decentralized operation)
- Easy to retry joining a race if Re-Volt failed to launch
- Much less CPU/memory hungry than for example than GameSpy
- No advertises

After logging in, RV House automatically connects. RV House uses two different methods for connecting: a centralized server and a decentralized (peer-2-peer) network. Even if the centralized server is not working, you can reach other participants using the decentralized network.
Usually connecting to the centralized server is quite fast (a couple of seconds), but reaching the decentralized server and finding other participants using it is quite a bit slower so be patient. It can initially take a minute or two to find other players using the decentralized network.
