Automatic Setup

We suggest this setup if you want to play Minecraft alone!

Our support for Minecraft is based on different server frameworks. These allow for more flexibility while keeping your launcher setup clean. We suggest Fabric if you are not familiar with the other frameworks.

Step 1. Use the Crowd Control desktop app to configure your instance of Minecraft.

• Click “Configure Minecraft”
• Confirm your Minecraft username
• Select Framework (we suggest Fabric)
• “Local” Server Type

Step 2. Install the server framework and launch from the Crowd Control desktop app. “Click to install” button.

Step 3. Launch Minecraft how you normally would and select Multiplayer.
Step 4. Click Add Server, and use Server Address “127.0.0.1”. Then, join your server.

Step 5. Press “Connect” in the Crowd Control desktop app.
Step 6. Press “Start Session” in the Crowd Control desktop app.
Step 7. Use the Effect Manager in the CC Desktop app to test effects!

Advanced Setup

If you want to play on an existing singleplayer world, a dedicated multiplayer server, or with a modpack, then please read the Advanced Setup Wizard!

Minecraft Frameworks

This is a break down of our supported frameworks. It lists what versions they support and where you can find the config file to change what port they use.

This version is updated to new releases the fastest. It also supports the most features, though you will need to install the mod on your client to utilize them.

Config: config\crowdcontrol.conf

Tips

These tips should work for any of the above supported server frameworks!

Reset World

If you’ve played before and wish to start a new world, then you can delete the “world” folders on your server, which will generate a new seed when it next loads.

1. Make sure your Minecraft Server is not running.
2. From the Crowd Control desktop app, head to Config > Game Paths. Find Minecraft, and click the folder icon.
3. From Windows Explorer, open the folder for the framework you are playing.
4. Delete all “world” folders, including “world_nether” and “world_the_end”
5. Relaunch from the Crowd Control desktop app to regenerate a new world!

Server Commands

When using commands on the server, you will want to exclude any / from your commands. You will also want to run these commands from the black server window that opens when you “Launch Server”. You can find some useful basic commands here. Example:
