How To Make a Modded Minecraft Server in 1.19.3 (Forge Server)

Making a modded server in Minecraft 1.19.3 that’s what we’re going to show you how to do in this video but first this is a forward server meaning it’s only going to run forged mods if you want to run a fabric server search how to make a fabric Minecraft server and

Our video on that will pop up however there are some things that you need to know before starting this server first and foremost this is hosted on your own computer which means it’s going to use your own computer’s resources now if you have a great computer that’s awesome but

Modded servers are super resource intensive so you do need a modern CPU and probably at least 16 if not even in some cases depending on the mods you’re running 32 gigabytes of RAM to not only run the server but play Minecraft on the same computer that you’re running the

Server on it’s very resource intensive it’s very Ram intensive so it is something to keep in mind it’s also using your own internet meaning you need a decent very stable internet connection to run your server on with that anyone who used to is This Server can DDOS you

They can also figure out where you lived under your latitude and longitude coordinates meaning that the last thing this isn’t a public server it’s only meant for your friends your family people you trusted would invite over to your house right so that is who this is

For so keep that in mind what if though you want a public server what if you don’t want to worry about Hardware you just want to play the game you can play body Minecraft but you can’t run a server while it’s modded and play modded Minecraft at the same time or what if

So we want to select it on the left hand side here you have to click the 119 button and then 119 3. which you do see Minecraft 1.19.3 here coming to download latest and click on the installer button to be taken off to add focus on ADD

Focus put your hands in the air and don’t click anything on this page whatsoever just wait about 10 seconds then after about 10 seconds in the top right a red skip button will appear click on that red skip button and automatically in the bottom left Forge 1.19.3 will start downloading you may

Need to keep this in the bottom of Google Chrome or save it in the server screen on Mozilla Firefox it is a hundred percent safe to do so so go ahead and do that you are good to go now we can go ahead and minimize our browser

Here and what we want to do first is actually create a new folder on our desktop so go ahead and right click create a new folder and title this folder modded 1.19.3 server you could also do modded Forge 1.19.3 server then let’s go ahead and move that Forge file we downloaded

To our desktop it’s gonna be found in your downloads folder to find that click the little Windows icons and then top it up to my screen bottom left viewer screen or bottom center of your screen on Windows 11. type in downloads now you may have a downloads folder if you do

Click on that directly if not click on file explorer then on the left hand side over here you’ll be able to find this PC and your downloads folder and here you can see Forge 1.19.3 drag this to your desktop now this is the installer so you

Want to go ahead and right click on this click on open with click Java and click ok but Nick I don’t have other well if you don’t have Java what you need to do is go to the description down below and download Java 17. this is required for

Minecraft mods to start quiet for Minecraft servers which means if you’re making a modded server you definitely need Java 17. so this is our in-depth guide on getting a Java 17 goes through everything super in-depth here even showing you how to fix different potential issues that you may have when

Installing it with that being said you may also need to run the jar fix and what this is going to do is take all the jar files from your computer and Link them back to Java making them more Capital together let’s say you don’t have the Java icon on Forge well this is

What will fix that but first you will need to stall install Java 17 to do that unless we can minimize our browser here and right click on Forge click on open with click Java and click OK that opens up the mod system installer where all you actually want to do is click on

Install server this red box will appear click the three dots within the red box that’s going to open up this where we want to navigate to our desktop and then we want to navigate to that modded forage 1.19.3 server so right there it is Click open the red box will go away

And click ok now it’s going to download and install the Minecraft server.jar for Forge right so it’s going to download install do everything it needs to do to get that up and running you can actually see the files and folders are coming in here right so if

We kind of refresh this they are downloading there into installing all of that stuff when it is finished it will come up and say so successfully download and installed Forge Minecraft server and install Forge 1.19.3 click OK and it will close out of the forge installer now before we move forward with our

Server we actually need to open up Forge again so right click open with Java click OK we need to reopen this because we also need to install clients so make sure that’s selected and click OK everyone who plays in your server yourself included will need to install

The client exactly like I just did in for it so your friends your family anyone else who’s joining on the server will need to install Forge like that that’s why our Forge guide on the website is so great because it will show them exactly how to do that so that’s in

The description you accessed it earlier your friends have family can use that as well to get Forge installed now let’s click OK and it will close out of that and finally we can delete the forge installer and open up our modded Forge 1.19.3 server now in here you have a few

Things the most important thing you need to know is this run.bat file that’s how you’re actually going to run those servers so you can double click on that and it will go ahead and try to start the server now the first time you try to start your server it’s gonna fail so

It’s gonna go through and as you can see you need to agree to the ula in order to continue so go ahead press any key it will close out of the command prompt and we have a few more files and folders in here specifically we have the eula.txt

File open this up and go to this link assuming you agree to the Ula at that link for your Minecraft server changela equals false to Eula equals true t-r-u-e exactly like that all one line no spaces or anything click file save and now we can double click on that run.bat file

Again and your server will start I will download everything it needs to do and get your server up and running keep in mind Forge servers take absolutely forever to start now with no mods like this it’s actually not too bad but it still it takes a long time in comparison

To a vanilla server or a paper server even with plugins to get up and running in comparison to vanilla so that is something that is worth noting here but our server is now started you can Join This Server so let’s go ahead and do so and you want to open up the Minecraft

Launcher and make sure you’re playing Minecraft with Forge again if you don’t don’t play with forage you can’t Join This Server so it’s important that you do that we do have this forage installation here if you don’t have a forged installation you can create a new

One but we do have one I do want to change our resolution so we can see better once we get in game go ahead click Play Click play again no reason to watch this open up so we’ll meet you on the main menu to join our newly created Minecraft server here however your

Friends can’t join at this point we’ll cover that here in a second but it’s worth testing before your friends join because you don’t want to go through that whole entire process if you for whatever reason can’t join the server you should be but here we are on the

Main menu in order to join the server click on multiplayer you might need to proceed through that and then click direct connection after you’ve clicked your reconnection for your IP address you want to enter in localhost now you’re the only person in the world that’ll be able to join off of localhost

But it allows you to join the server and test it so when we click join we’ll see on the left hand side We join right on in and we are in now our modded Minecraft server things are up and running looking good now like I said if

You want your friends to be able to Join This Server and by the way your friends will join eventually once you port forward it everything off your public IP if you can’t join off the public IP that’s perfectly fine you can always join off a local host only your friends

Have to join off of the public IP address but nonetheless you will need to port forward now we can go in depth in this video but unfortunately YouTube just doesn’t like that it’s kind of sad but YouTube has forced us to cut those parts of these videos and put them in

Separate videos so we have an in-depth guide on how to port forward for a Minecraft server it goes through everything in depth on how to forward port 25565 and it’s the exact same on vanilla modded and paper plugin based server so this video covers it all it is

In the description and go here and check it out it’s helped I think nearly yes over half a million people now port forward their Minecraft servers and once you do that you’ll be able to have your friends join and all of that now you probably also want mods on your server

And we do have a separate video on that as well which is actually on your screen right now so that video goes over exactly how to install mods how to download mods how to set up Mods how to do basically everything that you need to

Do in order to get your mods on your server it’s a little more in depth than it should be for example you have to install it multiple as well well and there’s some stuff to note about how your friends will handle the mods in the server so that’s why that’s NHL’s every

Video I hate that we have to link out to all these separate videos but that’s what YouTube does with us having to get the view duration in order to show up and help you at all so nonetheless blame YouTube for that but thanks for watching

And we do hope this video helped you out check out those other videos in the description in the comments and on your screen right now my name is Nick subscribe if you enjoyed we’ll see in the next one peace
