Author Topic: Minecraft Megathread; yeah its update 1.12 big whoop what about it  (Read 5849381 times)

wait,I'm trying to host.
just give me a second.

Your second is up.


Hmm, I run the start server.bat and when i connect to the right IP address, it doesn't work.
Any help? How do you people start a server?

Ugg, whenever I connect with local host, it says in the start_server.bat that it kicks them because they need to log in. Any help?

TRIPLE Post!!!

If anyone wants to join a server that actually works PM me.
(im using Hamachi)

I will if i know what Hamachi is.

So I did what this http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=1013&t=35032 told me and when I open the Server-Properties I see no server IP line or anything.
Help?

Portable Minecraft worked for me :). I introduced my friend to it during class after we finished some stuff. We typed in a bunch of teachers names for seeds and there was a bunch of cool ones.

71.93.178.219

vanilla server just started, only 2 spots open.

Except this time I will have 10 slots open.

I don't know if you server hosters know this or not, but hosting a Minecraft server actually requires resources.

You really can't host a server and play at the same time on a dual core, even at 3 GHz.
And no, you can't host on DSL speeds either.

You need at least a quad core processor, at least 2.5 GHz maybe, and at least 4GB of RAM, and at least a decent broadband connection if you live in a rural area, or fiber optics in a populated area.

I'm not saying "NO HOSTING PLEASES", I'm just saying, if you don't fulfill those requirements you'll find out shortly that the server will either lag from the start if you have shoddy internet, or will lag with more players/chunks generated eventually.

I sometimes host a Minecraft server (not as much as I used to), and my RAM usage goes as high as 3.5GB out of 4GB.  1.5 GB is normally used by Steam/Chrome/Windows/Skype/etc.  Do the math, Java eats up lots of RAM.
