[Help] How can i play my own server?

[beny9512]

Hey!

I created a server with this application MCAdmin ( http://forum.ragezone.com/f627/wrapper-mcadmin-699854/ )

Okay, now how to play my server?

May be a stupid question, sorry.

Thanks, Ben.

For you to connect to your own server: type 127.0.0.1 or your computers network ip adress. It might work with your outside ip adress too, but it doesnt for me. But the first two ones should work.

Your computers local ip adress can be found by opening cmd, and type iconfig and find ipv4.

For others to connect, you need to portforward the port. Usually its 25565, learn more about portforwarding at Dsl Internet | Wireless Networking | Wifi Router Network | Opening Ports at Portforwarding.com

When you have portforwarded the port, then tell your outside ip adress to the people you wish to connect. You can get your outside ip adress at IP Chicken - Whats my IP address? ip address lookup

Okay, portforwarding done. But where can i connect to the server as "client" to play the game?

Select multiplayer -> write the ip adress

I dont have premium account, other solution?

[Lapje]

Ah! I don't have a premium account either. Unfortunately, there's no way to play multiplayer without a premium account. =/. Guess we have to stick to singleplayer survival. (which is still better then classic =D)

[Erlend]

You can't play any mp servers without having premium acc (having paid for the game)

Only way for people with cracked versions to play with each other is hamachi.

There's no such thing as a "cracked version", as Minecraft isn't protected by a DRM. Also, you don't need Hamachi to play with others that haven't bought the game. You just set "online-mode" and "verify-names" to false in server.properties. Anyone with an illegal copy will also need to use a name spoofer, otherwise they'll be called "player".

You don't need Hamachi, you just can't use your default ip adress. You can use any local network, VPN etc.

My server works as it should do, even though all 9 of us are using the minecraft client provided by MentaL... You are remembering to forward port 25565 to the computer hosting the server, right?

When i said cracked im talking about playing the game without buying it.
