i dont understand the docs you edit when you make you server so i would like something that will give me choices via dropboxes/checkboxes instead of editing the files. i tried some custom server software but it is still just editing the files. help please.
thanks ahead and please hurry
i cant use the regular server software my comp doesnt let it run
mmk, 3 things. 1. What server software are you using, i.e. original, mcsharp, mczall, icraft, etc..., and...
2. are your ports forwarded
3. did you unzip the file
like when you get the batch file that doesnt run i can only get the three you get at first
is there a vid on exactly how to do it
i use original i do unzip i cant run the batch file you get
it doesnt help and it says admins false and stuff i dont get it(on my freinds comp)
ok heres what your properties file should look like (with my notes):
#Minecraft server properties
#Sat Jul 24 20:03:36 CDT 2010 (ignore this)
verify-names=true (leave this alone)
admin-slot=false (if true, when your server gets full, an admin can get on by kicking a low ranking person off.)
port=25565 (leave this alone)
public=true (false means its a private server)
server-name= (Put the name of the server here)
max-players=16
max-connections=3
grow-trees=false (trees will grow if true)
motd= Put a message here
when you first get it there are 3 files
you ruun the bat file and get the rest
well i cant use that so im stuck
hmm, run it and post what comes up in the console
i cant get more than 3 files i cant run the bat that gives you server properties etc.
il try
failed to load main class manifest atribute
then where the file is located and says minecraftserver.jar
this should pop up in a console window:

on: admins.txt (The system cannot find the file specified))

20:25:58 To connect directly to this server, surf to: http://www.minecraft
.net/play.jsp?server=a3946a0f48636e252c1731f3d2567ea6
20:25:58 (This is also in externalurl.txt)
when you FIRST extract it you have start server readme and minecraft server
i cant run minecraft server
wich means no server.properties
you press start server, the batch file
>_>
ok
it says java is not reconized as a internal or external command
hm... idk how to fix that
i heard of minercpp is that good
most of the custom clients are better than the original
r there guides for them
http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Custom_server_list
heres a list of all the custom server software and their options
how do i add commands
you dont add commands, unless you wish on creating the software from the ground up.
like /lava and cuboid etc
the commands depend on some things, 1. your rank, the higher you are the more commands, you'll want to be admin. do this by putting your name in the admins.txt and the players.txt, make sure to check for capatilization, and 2. what software your using. the original software doesn't have much for commands, but you can find them in the readme.
im gonna try mczall it already has a butload of commands
um, good luck, that seems to be much more complicated.
It sounds to me as if you're not on an administrator account on your computer. The computer admin can block the normal accounts from doing some things. Seeing as cmds can occasionally be dangerous, your computer admin has probably disabled the use of them.
i figured it out(cant port forward though)

At the moment, as far as i know, all server software requires the editing of files. Also most of the file editing is pretty straight forward. Try reading the readme that probably came with it.
