What you get
- Pick any Minecraft version — Vanilla, Paper (plugins) or Fabric (mods)
- A free address like
your-name.mc.landocs.app that friends can join
without you touching your router
- Works with premium and cracked accounts
- Buttons for kicking, banning, giving items, changing the weather — no commands to memorise
- Live RAM, CPU and player count, and a check telling you if your PC can handle it
Setting it up
- Unzip the download somewhere permanent, like
Documents\McServer.
Not inside the zip itself.
- Double-click
start.bat. That's it — nothing to install.
- Your browser opens. Create a server, then open Invite friends and press
Claim it to get your free address.
You'll also need Java — which version depends on the Minecraft version you pick.
The app checks for you and tells you exactly which one to install, with a link.
Updating from an older version? Unzip the new one over the top of your existing
folder. Your worlds and settings live in a data folder that isn't in the
download, so they survive. If you unzip somewhere new, it'll look like your servers vanished.
If Windows warns you when you run start.bat, click More info then
Run anyway. That warning appears for any program without a paid signing certificate.
You can verify you got the real file with the checksum below.
Keeping the app open
Your server runs inside McServer, so the window has to stay open while people are playing.
Closing it stops the server — your world is saved, but everyone gets disconnected.
