👟Getting Started
Learn how to create a server with Plazma.
To use Plazma reliably, the system must meet the following requirements.
Minimum | Recommended | |
---|---|---|
Architecture | x64 | - |
RAM | 8GB | 16GB |
Storage space | 1GB | 8GB |
JRE | 17 | 21 |
For smooth configuration file editing, it is also recommended to install an editor such as Visual Studio Code.
1. JRE Installation
As the name suggests, Minecraft: "Java" Edition is developed in Java, so it requires to run.
Since Plazma is based on Mojang Studios' official server , JRE must be installed to use Plazma.
1.1 Check for JRE
To check if JRE is installed on the system, type in the Run window and run it.
If the output is as shown below, skip to Step 2.
If the output is not as shown above, or if it is as shown below, it means that JRE is missing or too old, so you need to perform Step 1.2.
1.2 JRE Installation
In this guide, Azul Zulu is used as one of the types of JRE. Refer to for more information.
After completing the installation, redo Step 1.1 to ensure that the installation is correctly completed.
First, download JDK 21 in
.msi
format from Azul Zulu.Run the downloaded installer and click
Next
.After activating
Set JAVA_HOME variable
from the menu displayed in the center left of the window, clickNext
.Click
Install
to complete the JRE installation.
2. Plazma Download
Plazma offers various forms of executable files.
In most cases, use Reobf Paperclip
.
The following content is for developers or those curious about various features. If you are a regular user, you can skip to Step 3 without any issues.
3. Creating a Start Script
To easily start Plazma and automatically restart the server, you need to create a .
Flags.sh allows you to generate a startup script by entering only the in Plazma, the command will be automatically optimized.
You can download the start script by clicking the bottom left download button. Make sure the downloaded start script matches your operating system.
4. File Cleanup
Now move the downloaded start script and Plazma to a new folder.
The folder name must not contain spaces and must be in English.
Otherwise, Plazma or JRE may not function correctly.
Now run the start script. For Windows, in the firewall permission prompt, make sure to select Allow.
5. EULA Agreement
Once you run the start script, an eula.txt
file will be generated in the folder.
is a license agreement that you must agree to by using the services of .
If you do not agree, you cannot start the server, and if you violate the EULA, you may receive such as account suspension.
To agree to the EULA, change eula=false
to eula=true
in the eula.txt
file and save it.
6. Allow External Connections (Windows)
Modern operating systems block external access by default to prevent unauthorized access from outside using firewalls and routers.
For Windows, since the firewall was allowed in Step 3, you just need to do port forwarding.
This guide assumes that it is written for Windows operating system and a router that can use .
If your router does not support UPnP, you will need to search for information as panel layouts vary by router.
Alternatively, you can use Ngrok to generate a temporary address.
For Linux or macOS (Unix-like) operating systems, firewall configuration methods vary by service, so you need to search for information directly.
6.1 Check the Need for Port Forwarding
Enter the following in the Run window and run it.
If the output is True
, you can stop here, but if it is False
, you need to set up port forwarding.
6.2 Connect to the Server
If port forwarding is not needed or has already been successfully set up, you can now connect to the server.
The address used to connect to the server can be checked here
7. Grow
If the server starts successfully and is operating correctly, it is time to customize the server.
Explore how to customize the server through the following guide.
