All right welcome to a little video on how to join the server a couple things we’ll have to do you have to download a couple different uh files or programs if you will first things first make sure you’ve got the most up-to-date version of java so go to this website download Java It’ll download this is an executable file so what we’ll do is once it’s done we can click show in folder or if that doesn’t pop up for you if you’re in your Chrome tab you can click control and J it’ll open this up so you can either double click it here And that will run it as extension or you can go to your actual downloads folder whoops and it’ll you can run it there as well so either way you’ll run this extension double click it yes and then you just click install and whatever continue yes comes up after That you’ll just keep uh keep installing that so now when that’s done that’s your Java now what we’re going to do is we’re going to get OptiFine so this is what the website will look like you’ll go to previous versions or sorry preview versions now there’s not a actual Release for 119 3 so the most recent is this one you’ll click download on this one it’s got the closest date it’s like in stupid people uh time format but this is uh 30th of January if yours is more recent great download don’t click here this is one of Those servers don’t do nothing we’ll wait uh three seconds at the top right have the five seconds and then we’ll click skip this website uh we’ll just click download you’ll click download it’ll start downloading when you click keep this is sus as well so make sure to immediately close out of that As long as you have other Chrome tabs open it’ll keep downloading if you don’t you’ll be stuck on that website so make sure you have other Chrome tabs open so that’s downloaded as you can see it’s in our downloads folder it’s just waiting to finish perfect that’s done we’ll hold on to That for a second the next thing are shaders I don’t typically use shaders but this one’s pretty decent and I kind of want to mess around with it and then there are also a couple things that the server does use the shaders for if you don’t have it It’s not an issue but if you do have it it can help more on client-side more than server side but either way this one’s really nice what I like about this one is if you can turn down the intensity of how bright the sun is on the floor most shaders are like Light beams in your eyes and it’s awful uh you can turn that down on this one so this one’s pretty neat either way this website I’ll send a link it should automatically download within a couple seconds if it doesn’t you can click this button and it’ll start Downloading so there we go our shader’s downloaded awesome so now you’ve got shaders or OptiFine and our Java so now we’ll do is we’re gonna go to our Minecraft folder and if you don’t know how to get there you’re going to click on a folder you’re Going to click this PC on the left whichever disk has your windows icon that’s what you want to click so we’ll double click that now we’re going to double click users whatever your user account is and then on here yours might look a little different so yours might look Like this what we’re looking for is a darkened out folder called app data if you don’t see it go to view on the right over here hidden items make sure that’s checked it’ll disappear and now app data is right there so we’ll double click that roaming your first one should be dot Minecraft And then we’re going to scroll down and we’re going to have this uh file open and we’re going to also open a new file for our downloads and we’re going to take the complementary shaders uh ZIP file we’re not going to unzip it or anything and we’re going to drag it into this Shader pack folder all right so you’ll take that you’ll just drag it Shader packs drop it now I already have an installation so I’m going to already delete that so as I’m confuse it but um that should be the only thing in here now I’ll also have the Config like that I have in the Discord that you can get it’s just a little note so you can copy or download it and whatever and you would just put that in here as a txt document and or sorry as a txt file and then you’ll have the same config I Will you can always just change it to whatever works for you too but that’s how that’s going to work so that’s our shaders done now our OptiFine and our download folder where we don’t actually have to drag it anywhere we’re going to double click it this is an executable file we’ll click Install and make sure that it is at your Minecraft location so where we just went to get to that folder as long as that’s the same and it ends in dot Minecraft click install and then boom that’s that’s that I already have it so I’m not going to bother So now we got to do is we gotta get our actual launcher before you go to play we’re gonna go to installations make sure you have a 119 3 OptiFine installation and if you don’t you can click new installation and then you can go to here in your versions Just click this down arrow and it should be one of the first ones right there make sure it’s 119 3. if you now when you create it or if you had it already right here so if you’re in a new installation make sure it’s your uh OptiFine Go down here to more options scroll down a little bit this too change it to a four as long as you’ve got a good amount of ram if you’ve got a really bad computer don’t don’t change this but change that to four it’s uh it’s gonna allocate more RAM to Minecraft it’ll be Nice for you we’re going to now cancel that just because I already have it set up um and then if you already have one here you can just edit it with this three dots and same deal more options change that mine’s it even at six so whatever works for you This is client-side for the server so you don’t need a ton four is definitely Overkill but I like to I like Overkill so now that our installation is created we go back to play we’re gonna hit launch excuse me we’re gonna hit launch or play And then we’ll uh we’ll show you what to do here now now the OptiFine uh the only reason we have that is for a zoom feature as well as to disable fog the Shader pack is really really neat but in the nether it’s it’s it’s awful the lava is so Bright and disgusting so turning the Shader packs off and the nether is really nice but when you do that your uh view distance isn’t as far there’s a lot of fog so turning off Define off it or turning the fog off not defined is for that anyway Now that we’re in here to actually join the server we’re going to obviously go to our multiplayer we’re gonna go to add server you can name the server whatever you want but I’m just going to call it the boys you can add the IP which I’m going to give out independently if I Give it to you don’t give it to someone else please only allow me to give out the IP um otherwise I’ll kickier or something or I’ll make you kiss my feet I don’t know we’ll figure that out but either way name it whatever you want you’re going To put the server IP in here you’re going to click done it’ll kick you back to this screen and it should add the server here if the server is online you’ll see this and if it’s not this will just be like xed out so if it’s online you can join it whatever So when we join it we’ll just double click now when you load in your first spawning you’ll immediately get a cheap little kit just something the server is on hard mode you will get oh it kind of duped for me just because I’ve been messing with it but either way you’ll get some Leather armor with projectile protection you’ll get wooden Enchanted uh items sort of knock back just to like get some stuff away from you efficiency wooden tools you can get a quick little start some food golden carrots and some torches all right now uh this isn’t the server I’m just Messing with it making the video right now anyway but there will be somewhere you’ll spawn there might be information where you spawn I’m not really sure at the moment by the way that’s the world spawn the world will have a certain area that’s protected by where you can’t Destroy blocks then once you’re out of that area it’s free game I’m more than likely going to install some sort of plug-in to where you can have like locked chests and stuff so people can’t just go into your chest and steal um but we’ll see maybe I’ll just leave It basically as a Anarchy server I don’t really know either way that’s that when we get in here we’re gonna click Escape we’re gonna go to options we’re gonna go video settings we’re gonna go to details we’re gonna go to fog and we’re gonna turn that off so that’s first things first Then we’ll go Escape we’re gonna go to shaders yours should be off by default so now you’ll just double click right here on the complementary shaders and that will enable the shaders now if you want to change anything in the shaders on the bottom right Shader options this is Where you can change everything there was a UI without OptiFine install we can just import the previous settings I don’t know why it changed well I didn’t mean to do that oh well um but either way you can change or import the the settings so otherwise just just put it in the Same folder that I showed you in earlier oh look how different that all looks now all right I’ll change that afterwards oh well but yeah so there’s that uh how to do your shaders um and then everything else is pretty normal this is just a survival vanilla server Um the server has 17 chunk render distance but as you can see I’m at 48 and I can definitely see more than 17 chunks and it’s loading decently I’m often creative and I’m flying so it’s far but these 17 chunks is going to be from my Server to each player there is a plugin installed where you can actually crank up your server chunks to 64 is what OptiFine goes up to so you can go up to 64. as you can see at the bottom here it’ll say like you need three gigabytes of RAM allocated that’s Where that kind of comes in from earlier you can set this to whatever you’d like I like to see really far especially with the shaders it looks pretty good um so that’s really neat the zoom feature if you go into your controls and keybinds all the way to the bottom here you’ve Got Zoom this is set to my tilde key which is the key right under Escape so if you click and hold that you can zoom you can get a pretty good uh better better visual distance so it’s neat some something pretty handy I like it a lot and that’s that’s that Um yeah any other questions or anything just definitely feel free to DM me on Discord any recommendations definitely let me know and obviously I’ve been having issues please let me know of that too this isn’t I don’t do this full time but I’ll I’ll try to tend to this as much as I can and otherwise have fun please don’t be a dick and yeah enjoy Video Information
