heyyy guys , would any of people who play mince craft know how to make a lan server to play with my mates Assuming you are using the "standard" Minecraft server available from minecraft.net (I'm also assuming you are using Beta as opposed to Classic)

you would change the values in the server.properties file; specifically, you want online-mode to be "false" and "check-names" to be false, otherwise it will be required for them to login to the minecraft.net server (I'm assuming that you want a LAN server because they haven't purchased minecraft for themselves).

If it's classic, well, I don't know. Personally, I consider classic to be more akin to a 3-d paint program for kindergarten children, but that's just me.  i own the beta and my mates do i want a to CREATE a lan server for in colalge when me and my mates have break and use out laptops to play it Quote from: blackrainbow on February 02, 2011, 09:47:05 AM

well my friend has set up a server we could use   he is running it from  his pc .. it  running most of the time (as requested)  it is a survival pvp server at the moment, 

this is a free to play server (just don't grief) 86.11.54.222 it is not atm it will be up  it will be up around 6 (gmt) is there any particular time you would like the server to be up ..

Craig (Cengbrecht on the forum here, I think) has a server that's been up for a good month now:

mc578.servercraft.co:7777

personally I stopped playing when he switched to the servercraft address. It feels much slower to me.

That and I no longer have mod powers so I can't help people that get stuck in a pit near the spawn point except to throw them some dirt and wish them luck, since the game refuses to let you put stuff down near the spawn point until you get a certain distance from it.... which you cannot do if you are stuck in a pit.
