Hello everyone today i’m going to be showing you how you can create a minecraft server for 1.18 and onwards however this will work for older versions so let’s get right into it the first thing you need to do is open the browser of your choice so i’m going to be using google chrome From here we just need to go to the website minecraft.net forward slash download this will bring you to the download page for minecraft however we want to scroll down to server software and go on java edition server all we need to do is go to where it says download minecraft underscore server.1.18.jar And we need to press the link right here as you can see this is going to start downloading the fileserver.jar and i’ll cut when this is finished downloading from here i’d like to drag this to my desktop however i can drag this anywhere in my download folder in my documents it Doesn’t really matter i’m just going to be using my desktop because it’s nice and easy to see i just need to right click go to new press folder and i can call this anything i want but for the sake of the tutorial i’m just going to call it minecraft server Now i just need to drag the server.jar into the minecraft server folder once i open up the folder i need to make a new text document all i do is go to new and hit text document i’m going to call this start.txt once i hit enter and open this up i need To enter some text to run the server this can be found back on the website that i mentioned earlier all you have to do is copy and paste this as you can see now i’ve copied and pasted it into this file basically what this is saying is to use the language java The server is going to start with this amount of ram it’s going to have the minimum of this amount of ram and it’s going to target this file however if we look in our folder you can see that this file does not exist it’s called server.jar so i must change this to server Now you can tell this text document is targeting the fileserver.jar however i need to change the name of this file to ensure it runs so all i have to do is go to file save as i need to change the save as type to all files And then i just change this to start.d80 b80 and then hit save as you can see now i have a new file start.bat i can now safely delete the start.txt file now we have deleted the start.txt we can run start.bat however i should warn you before you run this you need to install Java17 i’ll have the download link for that in the description below now we’ve opened this as you can see it will say a bunch of stuff however once this is done we’ll need to accept the end user license agreement so as you can see here it is So i’m just going to left click this right click press edit and as you can see it says here by changing the setting to true you’re indicating that you agree to the end user license agreement now i’ve already read this however you can go read this yourself i’ll have it linked down below So now all you want to do is change this to true we can press file and then just save we can close this now and run this start up bat again i’ve just went ahead and skipped until it was done as you can see it took me 28 Seconds for this application to run however it could take you longer or shorter depending on how powerful your computer is i can just stop the server by typing the command stop and just hit enter you can tell that we have loads of files now in this i’m just going to go over the Server.properties file so i’m just going to left click right click again and press edit and here you can see the basic rule sets for the server you can see if pvp is allowed you can check if a whitelist is enabled so as an example i’m just gonna make the White list true so i can just replace the word false with true i decided i think i might just change the max amount of players on the server just so you can see so i’m just gonna change it from 20 to one player as i’m going to be the only person joining Now we can just hit file and save this now every time you want to start your server all you have to do is run the start.bat file you have to keep this application open the whole time when you want to play your server so i’m just going to open this again It should be a lot quicker this time as we’re not generating the world from scratch now the server is open i’m just going to quickly join on my minecraft client i have minecraft 1.18 open now so to join your server all you have to do is Go to multiplayer and i’m just going to add the server so i’m not going to bother changing the server name as it doesn’t really matter but if you’re playing on the server that is hosting it all you have to do is give the server address zero So as you can see when i hit done you can see that my minecraft server is open as you see when i join this it’s not going to let me join as i’m not whitelisted so i need to add my name to the whitelist so i will do that now so The file we opened earlier is basically the console so i can enter any command so i’m just going to whitelist space add space my username which is king kicks once i hit enter the server has told us that it’s a successfully added kinkx to white list So if i join the server now i should be able to join now i’ve added myself to the white list i should be able to join perfectly as you can see i’m now here and we can see the brand new terrain for the new minecraft update however what happens if We want to let other users of our network join we need to give them our ipv4 address now this is basically the address that uniquely identifies your computer on the network so i’m going to show you how to get this address now now this is very Simple all we have to do is open our command prompt and we can do this by hitting the windows key and typing cmd and just hit enter now from here all we have to type is ipconfig this will give us a ton of useless information however the only thing we Care about is the ipv4 address and in my case this is 1.92.168.1.139 so i can just copy this and then go to minecraft now all i have to do is add another server and instead of using the number zero i’m instead using the ipv4 i copied earlier Now from here i can just press done and it will work perfectly again for me now as you can see i can also join using this address however if i was on a computer that wasn’t hosting the server i had to use this address or it would not work I hope
