How can i play minecraft with my friends like old times for free? Hamachi is still a thing?
>>106759920If you want to avoid port forwarding you can also use tor.At 2MB/s it is more than fast enough for minecraft
>>106759929I need a more normie way to play with frens, but ty for ya answer anon
>>106759920I still don’t understand how Tailscale differs from Hamachi, the end result where they create a P2P vpn tunnel seems to be the same. Maybe the difference is the centralized key server? But that’s beside the point, your friends could create a tailscale network which would work the same as Hamachi. It doesn’t require port forwarding. Why don’t you want to just forward ports to your Minecraft server though, anon? Are you CGNAT’d?
>>106760103I will give it a try, ty anons!
>>106759920You want high singlecore performance for the server, so if it's a small group just play via Lan and something like zerotier for P2P networking, since your pc will be stronger than a vps.But you can setup a free vps with Oracle's Free Tier. Just use paper or purpur as the server jar to keep it playable.There's the minecraft wiki for setting up a server if you're stuck.Also use Adoptiums java release and Aikar's flags on the server side.

>>106760348alsoNEVER use the default mc launcher; use prism or multimc, curseforge is a pile of shit
>>106760314It's that resoruce intensive now? I remember hosting MC server in 2011 on >Pentium 4 desktop running XP lol, had no issues with ~10 people and some plugins.
>>106760384Yeah it bloated as shit now and most things aren't paralellized, except for world gen, which still hits its limit if a bunch of people run arround at once, so you might want to pre generate the world using chunky, depending on your player numbers.

>>106759920if you are a loonix pro and know how to properly isolate things then ssh tunnels should solve everything
>>106759920There's a similar program to Hamachi called Radmin VPN, my friends and I use it, it's Windows only though. Just remember that the hose needs to be on in order for others to join the world.https://www.radmin-vpn.com/While I'm here, does anyone know of a similar program for Linux?
You just fire up the server software and set online mode to false.If you want people to connect to you without port forwarding, you can use programs that do UPNP or similar techniques that don't require other people to do install anything. Won't work if your router doesn't support those tricks.There are endless tools, whether they be client mods, server plugins, or even external software...
>>106759973Tailscale allows you to make your own vpn with zero setup and share it with other people.
>>106761427Minecraft is cool. Fuck off
>>106761455I have grown up. That is why i play minecraft. Stay on fortnite dumbass.
>>106759920I host my tiny <10 player servers with zerotier, basically Hamachi
