Mex – Minecraft – How to Download and Install Custom Maps on SMP Servers

Hello and welcome to another tutorial with Maxie and today I’m going to teach you how to install a custom map on your very own multiplayer server so we’re going to start off with a Croft bucket and the main file that you’ll be editing is the server dot properties file and in

Here you can see the level name is set to Oasis personal the moment this way so that i’m running a cut that I’m running the moment and you can see back here in the craft pocket folder that there is a folder called Oasis personal this is the

World folder in here is all the world files like the region which is made up like that and the level data that is basically how the server knows which maps are your load up so if I I’ve got this world called world 3 here by the way it does take into account comes

Letters so if I wanted to change the world on my multiplayer server to world three I just type in here do you control s to save the server type properties file and close it down and then run the craft bukkit server and you can see here that it was preparing level world three

That would have been the race is personal previously you can see here that it’s installing the mods like permissions voxel sniper essentials weatherman and welded it and then it’s done so you go into minecraft if you’re running it from your personal computer you would want to type in a

Local host which will connect you to your own so that you’re running and here we are on world three I’m just running the the wild grass mod and the texture pack if you don’t already know is clean design by short stuff seven the map is a custom pre-built RPGs sort of map which

Will be linked in the description below the video so if you want to stop the server you just type in stop and then enter it should stop gracefully also in the CraftBukkit folder because CraftBukkit sports plugins you’ll have a plugins folder or if you don’t make one

And then in here you will save the jar files for each mod so for example where the man is a very simple mod it only needs a jar file to run it’s only 12 kilobytes actually so that would just be saved in here and then when the server

Is run with this batch file it will load these plugins from the jar so if we wanted to uninstall one of them are just delete the jar most of these jars you can just download them on their own from the relevant thread on the minecraft forums in here we’ve got permissions and

Permissions actually has a separate photo for itself just like worldedit and essentials so in permissions you actually have different yml files which opened in WordPad which you can set the permissions feel for each world actually you can customize each world to your liking so for this one I could set

Myself to an admin and for world three the one that should load it up I could set myself to be a builder or some of that and that’s about it for this tutorial on how to install a custom map on your multiplayer server and actually this recording is because I didn’t

Include how to download the the relevant maps like so so you would go to one of your maps that you wanted say let’s look for a good one here for example Imperial lands no this is what I very huge don’t download that the jackal and the cave the one that the

Yogscast played so here we have the joke the download link this will normally be highlighted or have a link next to it like so you click on that a lot of them a media fire which is really good to consider have any adverts it will be a

Zip folder each what a save that to your documents my games minecraft and then it’s best to make custom map folder right there I’ve got all my custom maps saved so the jackal adventure you want to open up extract it to a plain folder and there it is check that inside is

Actually got the multiple folders and various text documents regarding the rules story and full story so here it’s the actual map because inside here we have the region and level data files so this photo here is the one we want to copy into our Croft bukkit server folder

So just do ctrl-c to copy it because you really you don’t want to cut it and then paste it you want to copy it because this one will remain as a kind of backup so you get into your croft pocket folder just paste it in here there it is and

It’s best to control see this title of the folder and then just go into your server properties follow place that in there save it and run your server sometimes the start region might may have to be generated but in this case it was not the same again localhost if it’s on your own

Computer if it’s on if you’re joining someone else’s computer then you need their IP and this should be yep this is the Jacqueline the cave map this is the starting area so I’d only want to go in there the moment and after seeing Simon in the lowest go in there so yeah that
