Magma Server Tutorial // Have Both Plugins and Mods on your Minecraft Server! // 2023 Edition

hello everybody my name is Cybex and welcome to another tutorial in today's video I'll be showing you how to create a magma server for 1.12 1.18 and 1.19 all three currently supported versions let's get started the first thing we're going to want to do is download the correct version of Java for the specific version of magma that you want in my recommendation I'm going to suggest that you download both Java 8 and the most recent Java 17 version in order to switch between the two with E's so to do so I will link both of these down in the description you'll just have to click on both links and then find the windows 64 installer for both Java 17 and then the windows offline 64-bit for Java 8. you'll just have to click download on both and then you'll install them I've already installed both so I'm going to skip over this step once those are installed you should be able to navigate to this PC click your local disk navigate to program files and find Java and you'll see both the jdk17 and Jerry 1.8 installed this will ensure that you have both versions installed for later in the video starting with 1.12.2 we're going to head to magmafoundation.org and then go to 1.12.2 underneath the downloads we're going to find the most recent version and click download and then navigate to our downloads folder you'll see that it says magma and then the version.jar if you cannot see this you'll have to go to view and then show and then file name extensions it's a little bit different on Windows 10 as this is for Windows 11 but you should be able to find it similarly for ease I'm going to be renaming this file to Simply magma.jar after I've created the file I'm going to new folder and naming this 1.12.2 and I'm going to drag the magma jar into this folder now that we have the magma jar we're going to go ahead and create the start.bat file in order to do so we're going to right click and go to do and then click on text document we'll then be naming this text document start.bat and then you're going to enter and you'll want to change the file name extension we're then going to edit this so I want you to right click show more options and click edit this will open up a blank text file then which will be linked in the description we're going to go to this thread and copy this text right here then there's a few things you can edit the first thing we have to edit is changing where it's pulling Java from since this is below 1.18 we need to pull from java 8 not Java 17. so what we're going to do is go to this PC RC Drive program files Java Jerry 1.8 and then bin and copy this file path we're then going to erase this put quotations and paste this in then we're going to put another slash and put java.exe and then end the parentheses this will ensure that it goes to JRE 1.8 and not jdk 17. the next is changing how much RAM you want on your server that is this variable right here this currently says one gig but preferably I would want a little bit more so I want to change this to six gigs then finally we wanted to find the magma jar in order to do this we just have to change server file name to magma.jar once you do this you can hit file save and close this and then you can start your server as you'll see It'll ask you to agree to the EULA to which you'll just type yes and then your server will start running now that the server is running you can see that you now have a mods and plugins folder inside of the server folder so I'm just going to type stop in my console and I'm going to go to curse Forge or wherever you find your mods and plugins and I'm going to download two of my favorite mods I want to go ahead and download iron chest and then I'm going to go ahead and download din map and then wait for those both to download now that they're both downloaded I'm going to put them in their respective folders so iron chest is a mod so we're going to drag and drop it into the mods folder while din map is a plug-in so I'm going to drop it into the plugins folder and then I'm going to verify that they're in the correct places and then I'm going to start my server now Parise I have already created my Minecraft mod pack that has iron chest in it as you can see by having five mods loaded I'm just gonna go to multiplayer and add a server and type in localhost you'll see that my server pings and if I go to join it'll log in successfully then I can go ahead and opt my character and then in game you can see if I give myself created and do help you see that din map is something that I can get out for and then if you go into your inventory you can click over and you'll see Iron chest is also there which means that both the plugin and the mod are currently working on the server once you get to this point your server is all but setup all you'll have to do is either port forward or use play it in order to share with your friends both of those videos are on my channel and I will link them below for those looking to create a 1.18.2 or 1.19.3 server the process is very similar so to start off we're going to go ahead and go to the bangorfoundation.org and you'll click 1.18.2 or 1.19.3 respectfully in this instance I want to go ahead and go with 1.18.2 and I'm just going to click download and then go into my downloads folder now we're going to rename this to magma.jar now that's renamed I want to go ahead and create a folder on my desktop in my case I'm just going to name it 1.18 and I'm going to drag this into that folder now that the magma jar is in the folder you'll want to make sure that you have file name extensions checked to do this you'll have to go to view and then shell and then make sure file name extensions is checked then what we'll have to do is create our start.back code to do this we're just going to go to new text document and name this run.bat we'll hit yes and then right click and edit this will bring up a blank notepad where we'll put the start.back code to do this we can just go to this thread below and copy this text since this is Java 17 we do not have to change this Java parameter but you will want to change the amount of gigs that your server has I would recommend anywhere between four to six if you're hosting both plugins and mods so in my instance I'm going to go with six finally we decided to change the server file name to magma.jar and then save and now we can run this file integrated the EULA and the server should load now that the server started you can see that you have a mods in a plugins folder so I've already done the Liberty I've downloaded both a mod and a plugin that I want so I'm just going to stop the server and then I'm going to drag the iron Chest mod into the mods folder in the dimap plugin into the plugin folder and then I'll start my server again now you can see that I booted up my mod pack that has iron chest loaded it's very important that the mod matches the version you want as you can see this is iron chest 1.18.2 and my server is a 1.18.2 server so I'm going to go to multiplayer and as you can see I went ahead and typed in localhost and added the server so I'm just going to join and then once I join I want to go ahead and opt myself in game using the console by typing up and then my name once I'm opt I can give myself creative and do a few things if I type in help you'll see I could do help din map that means that the plugin is currently working and then if I go into my inventory and I tab over you can see that iron chest is also working which means that blow the mod and the plugin are working properly now that your server is working properly all you have to do is either port forward or use play it both of those videos are on my channel and I will link them in the description thank you so much for
