Now i know that there are many Tut's on how to make a MC server...BUT...Ive never seen one where all of the info and programs are compilied into one easy package! SO i decided to do that for the 1.4.4 Release.
I have put into a zip file the server file, Craftbukkit, all of the major plugins to start up a good server and a GUI!
Plugins include:
PermissionsEx, Multiworld, VanishnoPacket, Essentials, PEXrank, World Edit and AutosaveWorld.
SO...here it is in all of its glory!
Step 1
Download the all in one server setup at the bottom of this post...extract it.
then, you need to run the file called Minecraft_Server, a program will pop up and a bunch of stuff will appear.
Also many new files will appear in the folder, this is good.
Once that has completed, Type "stop" in the console (only place where you can type) without quotes.
Step 2
Then go to your start menu, then right click My Computer and select Properties, see if your computer is 64 Bit or 32 Bit.
IF it is 64 Bit, Go to My Computer, then your hard Drive (C:/), then to Program FIles(x86), then Java...
Look and see what Java JRE Version you have...either 6 or 7, if you have older than 6 or no JRE at all Google search
for Java JRE 7 and download it..YOU NEED IT!!!
IF you have java 6 use the Java 6 64 bit Batch file..if you have 7 use the 7 Batch file take that Batch FIle from its folder
and paste it in the main folder where all of your Minecraft Files are...
If you have a 32 Bit System do the above but go to just Program files and check your Java Version and use the
Appropriate Batch file to run your server.
Step 3
Run the Batch File you have selected and let the craftbukkit server set its self up, once thats done, type "stop" in the
Console.
Step 4
I put the most useful and basic plugins in a folder called "plugins", some of them are still Zipped. Extract them with
your preferred unzipping program then copy paste all of the files into the folder called "Plugins" in the main folder that
Craftbukkit just created in step 3, Now run the Batch file again, all of the plugins will do their default settings,
Make sure in the console that you did not get any Warnings, if you have done everything correctly you wont.
If you did reread the previous steps and double check that everything is set up properly.
Step 5 (can be tricky)
yes...Port Forwarding...
seeing that most routers are different..this is tough, but i can show you the basics.
First off go to start menu and search for "cmd"
the command prompt will show up
once you are in command prompt...type "ipconfig"
all of your computers networking and routing info will appear...
you need to look up 2 things...
1. find Default Gateway:
it should say 192.168.1.1 USUALLY if it dont it will be similar
put the IP address that you see next to Default Gateway into your Web Browser...
It may ask for a username and password...
usually its user:admin pass:admin
if not ask someone who may know
If it dosent have a pass then it will just show your routers webpage
now find on there the settings for your routers portforwarding options
it will ask you for a name for your port...put whatever
now go back to the cmd and ipconfig screen, look for IPv4 Address...
remember the Ip address next to that...thats the computer that you are on's Internal Local IP address
back on the router page's port forwarding settings Put the IPv4's IP in the IP address area and set the Port to 25565.
Make sure you enable it then save the settings...
if it saved properly, Congrats! you are port forwarded!
If your router does not have anything i just said...then
go to
Port Forwarding Guides Listed by Manufacturer and Model - PortForward.com and select your router model.
Step 6
Now go to google.com and search for "what is my IP", google will tell you your IP address right at the top!
The IP address shown is the one that allows people to connect to your server...thats what you put when you advertise or
tell your friends.
Step 7
setting up the personalization of your server,
Go to the Server Properties file in the main folder of your server, if you can not open it, right click it and select open
with...then select Notepad...
Now you can change the Message of the day, how many people are allowed on at once, the Name of your server, the type of server
and if people with cracked Minecraft can connect..
If you want Cracked people to join...find Onlinemode=true..and change it to false.
Step 8
Setting up Permission..
