Step 1: have friends

As someone who currently is hosting a minecraft server in Oracle cloud, I can say that it works great. Setting it up does require a bit of technical know how though and I get how this can deter people from using it. But, getting a free server could be worth it to invest a sunday setting it up (it will take far less time if you are familiar with things such as SSH, linux commands etc.).

Hi shulkercraft

This is so underrated. I've been looking for a way to play with my cousin, but all other reviews were mainly focusing on the sponsor. It's incredibly helpful that you think outside the box and also include other options than a server. I think, I'm going to try out the Essentials mod, and if that doesn't work, I'll do the Oracle procedure.

Just yesterday i wanted to open a server and then a day later you post this, yall are the best

A very useful video for people wanting to host servers. Thanks guys

Finally a video that includes Oracle Cloud which in my opinion is the best as long as you are able to set it up.

There are also some 3rd party launchers, like ATlauncher, that let you create and host servers right in the launcher window. The downside would be that you would have to leave the pc running 24/7 and it could affect performance if you use the pc for other tasks simultaneously

Love what you do. Keep up the great work

this tutorial is very thought through, good job.

Holy shiiit, never heard of ngrok before and it saved me! been playing modded with a friend mine for a few days now, and for some reason Hamachi just stopped working completely. only gave "relayed tunnel" no matter what we tried, be it disable firewall, restart tunnel services or even a clean install. this video was my last shot after trying for literal hours to find a replacement for hamachi and ngrok comes out of left field and just works. Thank you so much, much love!

I really hope you achieve all your goals this year dude! You're a great creator and such a hard worker! Rooting for you hard this year

Thanks man, now I can finally set up a local server without the slow world generation with the help of ngrok.

With Realms, you can add Data Packs to the world save before uploading it as your Realm world, which allows pseudo mods. Not quite the same, but it's a halfway solution.

Shulkercraft you are the clutch god dude you saved my months of time by telling unique ways to host a server, i always had to use aternos to play with my friends without plugins and aternos was super duper laggy but u r the saviour and told me bout oracle cloud thank you so much

its good to know that essential mod takes a LOT of personal data, a lot of stuff it doesnt need

This is a genius way of marketing , you make an useful video and you advertise your brand i personally like it 😅

The ngrock thing should be really useful to me, so thanks so much

Thankyou i have been looking for other server methods beside aternos

Very good video. Finally someone who shows methods like oracle cloud

I watched him like 1 to 2 years later and now bro is having from 100k to 200k and then 1.19ml congratulations bro

Thanks for also showing oracle method! Using it for couple years now, works great. But getting it and setting up was very tricky, even if you have a lot of experience

Thanks you bro this video is extremely detailed ❤

I have been trying to figure out how to port forward my sever and didn’t even know there was another option so thank you shilkercraft❤️❤️

4:34 dont set the Xms to 4096 The Xmx is the Maximum Amount of ram and the Xms Is The Minimum Amount so setting them both to 4096 will make your server uses all the ram straight away

Thanks a lot shulkercraft!❤❤

Thank you so much 👌🏻

3:29 --> I'm using 1.19.4 and it gave me an option to type in a custom port number that I would like to start a LAN world with. With that being said, if you configured your port forwarding setting and use 25565 (default minecraft server port) in a singleplayer LAN world, it's possible to port forward a WAN connection to your local computer and play with your friends in that singleplayer world.

You can use DMZ instead of port forwarding, it's just a couple of clicks to enable

I didn't know you could do so much with LAN servers, will def try this out with my friends

Thank you alot. You really help me and my friends to play toghether

I used Oracle Cloud free tier, mainly beacause I wanted to learn about VMs and using ssh, since I already knew how to create a locally hosted server. I have to say it's amazing, having 24GB of RAM and so much power I think it can host up to 20 players maybe, without any issues and staying up 24/7 forever FOR FREE! If you want to have the best free server I reccomend trying to learn how to set it up, it's so much worth it, because you'll also learn technical stuff!

Bros are promoting their server in every way possible 💀

Thank you so much

I like you’re videos so mutch! Nice Titirial

You're from Germany? good to know, i'm german too

Love from india from kerala 🇮🇳💖💖

well detailed and so useful. thanks.

You explained this in the most simple way. THANK YOU

at 4:27 when they use the example of changing 1024 to 4096 that should only be done on Xmx because Xms is just the MINIMUM so youll be using the max resources at all times, which isnt really good if youre hosting on your own computer like in the example

Correction shulkercraft: In minecraft realms, if you add a world, you can add mods to the world files, and then you can have mods that are for vanilla minecraft but not bukkit or paper mods

Hey love you Guys I Watch Your video’s almost 2.5 years keep it up ❤❤❤

Really awesome video that summarise very well loads of different methods gg

But how in tlancher😢

Already knew its an ad before watching

WOW, thank you for this very informative video!

This is the best video ever as I always wanted to host a server but don't know how to do . I think this is the only video on server which is sensible 😊😊

I couldn't believe that Oracle is allowing free use of their servers. I had to check for myself! Definitely interesting especially for tech savvy users.

Very useful video shulker 💙✨️

That's a lot od options. Thanks!

oracle cloud looks nice, i may try it in the future

Thanks for the server :)

How fitting that the ad I got before this video started was a minecraft server hosting ad 😂

aternos also allows cracked accounts, you can change the software to forge for mods, paper/spigot for plugins, you can also manually add datapacks with a few buttons.

there is a very small server host called ploxhost, who are cheap and their servers are decently lag free from my experience, the actual server can be quite annoying to do things that you'd think to be simple, but with more popularity this could definitely be fixed

I came across this video by watching Dead Game News by Accursed Farms, the name of this video popped in at the end of that guys video, just because of server hosting mention. Anyway i checked this out, it's very informative and has a lot of useful information i need, so i gave a like!

Le dernier est extrêmement intéressant Pour être plus clair, le tuto date de mars 2021 ce qui est un tuto très récent pour quelque chose de GRATUIT et c'est très rare. La création de compte ne doit pas poser problème pour grand nombre sauf que pour les personnes mineurs, il faut demander à ses parents (besoin du RIB pour vérification d'hautenfication, pas de transaction). Ensuite, l'installation du serveur minecraft est la même que sur un Linux, Ubuntu... (CMD) Des connaissances (simple) suffise. Le tutoriel est très bien expliqué et précis, même une personne sans expérience peut le faire.

You deserved a subscirber bro. Thank you so much

thanks bro after so many time i know how to host minecraft server on my computer using ngrok thnks i apriciate

I use the oracle method and it’s very high quality really recommend

wow, thank you

3:23 You can also use a vpn to create a network in wich your friends can join even when they are in their houses, the downside would be that if the owner of the network leaves the game, it'll close, but I've been using a vpn with my friends for a very long time and haven't got any issues with lag or mods conflicts :D

THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY LIFE!

i didn't have the option to port forward but now i use ngrok bc of you

For the Oracle method, I have tried it and it works, but the tutorial is a bit outdated. You need some Linux experience to automate it and I would recommend using ufw as a firewall :)

Hey Shulkercraft, I don't know if you are going to read this as it is 2 days past the video upload date. But anyway, I saw your video on the wise hosting server hosting website and I thought it was an awesome idea, and it looks super cool. Unfortunately, I have had a horrible experience so far. I love the pricing of the servers, I think it is very fair, and I also really like the way the website looks. Although, I bought a Pigman server for me and some friends to play on and maybe to add a bit of mods in future. Then I wanted to add my old server world to the files. I started following the instructions given in the FAQ, and it ended up taking me to a place where I was asked to input my email address, so I can receive a new password for my SFTP. I did this and still (after 4 days) haven't received an email and I can't seem to log back into my account. Furthermore, I've requested like 20 password reset emails and nothing has arrived yet. I contacted support via email and nothing has arrived yet. I @ wise hosting on Twitter and also have yet to receive a reply. Now I am paying $11 a month to something I can't even access. I really want to give you guys a chance because I love the videos you make and want to support your passions. I'm just a little frustrated and I hope you understand. Much love Viper

i love this vid, if you have lots of ram, like i have 32 which is overkill but you can host a huge number of players on heavy modpacks, you dont need to buy or pay any money for a server that limits your customization, just host it yourself

On the lan you can play multiplayer without having friends on the same network,you can use essential mod and you done it

the best and one of the safest way is feather client for example you can choose any of settings, what do you want cause its running from your pc! its easy to join for your friends too and also its free

I needed this video, been wanting to play with some friends for a while... thanks Now I'm just wondering when Shulkercraft is going to make Fallen_Breath & acaciachan 72K/hr ice farm....

Get these legends to 2M

Hey shulkercraft I have goten A server from youre website and I had A problem. But your team helped me out and I want to thank The mm for that ❤

Thanks

Tip: if you want a console and want to see RAM and CPU usage, remove the nogui part of the script.

I personally use exaroton, it is hosting from aternos creators, but paid. In my opinion - best option if you don't need the server runnig 24/7. The way payment works is that you buy credits (somewhere 5 dollars for 500 credits) and then you spend it hourly depending on the RAM usage (if you set 2 GB RAM you use 2 credits per hour). I played with 10 people, and 2 GB RAM was pretty enough for us. 3-4 GB of RAM for modded survival was used. So in month we used like 200-300 credits. Well you can do the math and count for yourself, but i think this hosting is very nice!

Tysm

Love you shulkercraft

great tutorial bro 😍

this is legit the first time i see what the realms menu have since every time i clicked realms button i get greeted with restart game so many times to a point that i forgot realms existed

Love you from BANGLADESH🇧🇩

there's also lodestone A free, open-source server hosting tool for Minecraft I wish that you would have talked about it. it makes self hosting really easy

didn't expect these kind of videos only me?

Very Good Video, to be honest.

Thanks for going through all of these options. I plan to get a Wisehosting account very soon.

Can you make a tutorial how you set up your own server? I mean the one you built, and set up.

You can also connect to each other with Radmin VPN server. Then the host loads his world an opens to LAN. The second player can then join even if they are not on the same network. Hamachi also works but lately it has not been working for some reason

Only the OGs remember using Logmein Hamachi

I love the oracle cloud server because its not just minecraft i have also hosted other servers

Bro can you make a video on how to mods in aternos using forge with tlauncher

ngrock getting some shout out after years of doing this outstanding feature

Love from India from Gujarat ♥️😊😊

you are the best minecraft players i ever seen

can you upload a world you already have with your friends on realms if you wanna switch to using wisehosting?

If any of you is going for the Aternos option, you might be interested in AxentHost for free servers with better performances

Wow I never knew you could forward your server’s port without doing the router way and I can just use ngrok to forward the port.

Would love to see Hong Kong to be added as an option for server location

Quick question. Are you guys from estonia? Because that irl cake video you did I saw you were speaking estonian and considering that u have over 1m and from estonia is fricking awesome

shulkercraft, quick question: how do I know which server subscription I buy? How do I tell if I need to upgrade other than just general lag?

There's a 10th one I want to see someone do so bad!!! After you make the world, you need to put all serverside files into a package, including the programs to do this and the following. Make a program so that anyone joining the server automatically downloads and initializes the package. Have them all run at once, regularly sending blocks of data to eachother to confirm that each one has the same stuff happening, and those actions follow the rules of the game. Everytime this agreeance is made by 51% or more of participants, it is added to a chain. Each computer can check their package and worldstate against that block chain to make sure it's correct. This way a whole server can be run wintou needing a server computer.

Realms are like useful for certain things
