How To Make Minecraft 1.12.2 Forge server (2021) In Depth Tutorial!!!

Yo , what's going on guys ?

It's your boy Joe Blow Gaming .

Welcome back to another video guys in today's video , guys .

I got a really quick video on how to make a on how to make a Minecraft 1.12 0.2 Forge server .

All right , guys , I had this requested a lot .

I had this a lot in the comments .

So I thought I would go ahead and make a video for you guys on how to do it really quickly .

So let's go ahead and hop into the video guys .

All right guys , I'm gonna leave two links in the description .

Uh The first one you're gonna wanna click on is the Minecraft Forge 1.12 0.2 .

And then there's also gonna be the second link for this one .

You can go ahead and open up this link , but I recommend you , you just leave it open for now because we won't need it right now , but we're gonna need it in a bit .

So once you're on this uh Minecraft Forge , you're gonna go ahead and click on the installer right here or the recommended right here , ok ?

So we could do the recommended for this one .

You just click on installer and then it's gonna bring you to another web page .

You're gonna wait five sec , six seconds .

Once that's done , you're gonna click skip and it's gonna go ahead and download it now already .

Have it downloaded right here once you have that downloaded , make sure you drag it to your desktop .

No , the first step I want to do and get this out of the way guys is install this to your client .

OK ?

The reason for that is we need this installed to our client .

We need the forge 1.12 0.2 to be installed to our client to be able to install the mods into our client and in the forge server , your friends to be able to play and join with , you need to do this exact same thing .

They need to download , forge 1.12 0.2 .

They need to double click and open it once that's open .

What you do is you click install client right here , ok ?

It should automatically be on it .

Make sure that this is app data roaming dot Minecraft .

If it does say that you're completely fine to go , you just click .

OK ?

It's gonna go ahead and install your forge , ok ?

To your client .

Next thing you wanna do is open up my craft .

All right .

Now , once this open , you're gonna see 1.12 0.2 you're gonna open this up , you're gonna go to , you're gonna find your , what you should see this 1.12 0.2 for .

Ok .

Click on that and then click play once it's fully opened and you , you see single player or multiplayer , close your Minecraft and you're good to go .

Ok .

What happens from doing that is now we just installed forge to the client .

Now , if we were to go into our Minecraft directory and our folders , we would be able to see a mods folder , that is why we need to install , forge to our client first .

Now , what we're gonna do is we're gonna open up a new tab , ok ?

And I didn't leave this in the link in the description because I'm gonna do this with you guys .

So open up Google type in Minecraft 1.12 0.2 server and it should be the exact first link right here .

Minecraft .

It should be on Minecraft dot net .

Click on this , the released and then right here you're gonna see Minecraft server dot Jar click on this and it's gonna go ahead and install it , ok ?

Now , one last thing is we do need Java installed , ok ?

So if you don't have Java , make sure you type in Java and then you're gonna download it right here , ok ?

You click on download , you're gonna come right here , click download , like so agree and start free download , ok ?

And it's gonna recommend the Java A version .

All right guys , make sure you have the Java eight installed and only the Java eight version installed only if you have , if you have any other version of , of forge installed , it will not work .

So make sure it's only this version .

So what we're gonna do next is right .

Click on our desktop .

We're gonna go to new folder Minecraft server right now .

You can name it whatever you want , you can name it , Forge Server , whatever doesn't matter .

I just name it Minecraft server .

It's simple and , and then what you're going to do is you're going to grab the server that you've downloaded right again right here , right here .

Minecraft server on the Minecraft 4.12 0.2 release .

All right , you're gonna click on this and it's gonna download the server .

Next , we drag it into the micro server folder , open this up .

We're gonna right click this and yours is probably gonna be already called server .

Um You can name it to whatever you want .

I'm just gonna keep it at server .

It's very simple and easy .

OK ?

So what we're gonna do next is right .

Click in here .

We're gonna go to new text documents and then we're gonna open up this text document .

And then what we're gonna do is go back to this page .

I told you guys the second link in the description I told you to open but don't do anything yet .

What you're gonna do is you're gonna copy this , OK ?

This link and then you're gonna add it to this , to this file right here .

Boom .

Now , the first thing I'm gonna do is get rid of this is 10 24 .

You do 2048 .

Same thing with this .

10 24 2048 .

And what that does is it adds two gigabytes .

So don't , don't add too much gigabytes here guys .

That's gonna be bad as well .

If you have an eight gigabyte server or Minecraft or if you have an eight gigabyte computer , do not add more than , let's say six gigabytes or even five .

Ok .

Max half .

So I would recommend add four gigabytes if that's the case .

Ok ?

But don't , don't be doing that if I recommend 2 to 3 gigabytes .

All right guys .

Now , again , it depends on how much gigabytes your computer has .

Next thing I'm gonna type in , enter and I'm gonna type pauses under here just in case if we do get any issues , we can go ahead and pause it .

The next thing we're gonna do is highlight this Minecraft under score and get rid of that .

And then we're gonna get rid of this 1.17 0.1 .

Now , the reason we do that is because we're basically telling this .

Now what we're creating here guys is a run dot pat file or a start dot Pat file .

Basically what that does is it's , it's gonna run this , never double click .

This guys never do that .

OK .

It's really bad .

Just create this file that I'm creating right now .

Next , we're gonna go to file save a .

We're gonna change this from text document to all files and we're gonna name this run dot dot Or you can name it .

Start dot Bat , whatever your choice is click save .

So now as you can see , we have a run dot back command .

So let's go ahead and delete that .

Let's go ahead and delete this old text document .

We don't need that here .

Ok ?

Perfect .

So now let's go ahead and double click on the run dot bat .

As you can see now the server is up and running .

Boom .

Now we have to go ahead and accept the UL A first .

So open up the UL A and changes from false to true file save .

And again , we just open this and we click file save , run it again or sorry .

We opened this and we changes from false to true file safe .

So now as you can see that the vanilla server is all done , now , we can go ahead and type stop .

What we need to do now is install , forge to the server .

So we've already installed for to our client again .

Now , what we need to do is install , forge to this server .

Ok .

Double click on the forge installer .

Click on install server , click these three little dots .

My folder is on the desktop Minecraft server and then open .

Ok ?

Now what's gonna happen is you can see , boom , it starts creating some files .

OK ?

And this is what we need to be able to run the forge server .

Now , I do want to let you know in this video , I will not be teaching you guys on how to port for the server .

I have two videos on that .

So if you want to go watch those , I'll leave the links in the description for those for you guys .

So your friends will be able to join the server .

And again , your friends need to have forge 1.12 0.2 installed .

OK ?

And they need to have the mods installed to their clients , not the server because you're the one running the server .

They just need to open this and install clients .

OK ?

And then I'll show you guys in a second how they can install their mods and how we're gonna install mods to our server .

It's like , OK .

All right guys .

So now this is the , the kind of the tricky part that I think a lot of people get confused on first things .

First .

This is our vanilla server .

Let's get rid of it .

We don't need anymore .

OK ?

What we're gonna do ?

You see this Forge right here ?

This is our new forge server , right ?

Click this , rename it , name it to forge and that's it .

OK ?

Do not double click this .

OK ?

Do not double click .

That don't worry about this .

Worry about this .

Do not double click this what we're gonna do .

OK , guys is remember we need to edit this now .

OK ?

Because we always want to run our server with a run dot Bat .

So edit your run dot bat and you know where it says server , what are we gonna change it to forge ?

OK .

Just like this .

Then you're gonna go file save and now double click on the run .

Now what's gonna happen ?

And as you could see now it's a lot different right now we're creating , you can see now we have the mods folder .

All right guys .

So any time you're gonna launch a server , all you have to do is double click on this run , ok ?

That's it .

There you go .

We are all done .

We have our mouse folder installed .

You can go ahead and click , stop , it'll stop the server .

Alright .

Last thing we need to do is get a mod .

So for this , I'd just like to go to curse uh cur cur for , I'm just gonna write Minecraft mods .

Cur forges right here dot com .

All right , here we go .

So this is where you can get a lot of your mods guys .

This is where your friends can also get their mods .

All right .

So what we're gonna do is we're gonna go here to game versions and we're gonna scroll down till we see 1.12 0.2 right here , Minecraft 1.12 0.2 .

OK .

So now we have right here , the mods are gonna be loading up from microphone 0.12 0.2 .

For this example , I'm just gonna go with just not enough items .

Now , what we're gonna go ahead and do is go to files and then boom , here we go .

So let's find the Minecraft 1.12 0.2 somewhere .

All right .

So we can click on view all .

And what we're gonna do is go to find the 1.12 0.2 somewhere .

Ok .

Let's go to game versions 1.12 0.2 .

And let's see if it'll come up right away .

Here we go .

All right .

Just not enough items .

1.12 0.2 .

All right , guys , let's click on this and then click uh download right here .

Boom .

It'll take five seconds and then we're gonna have just not enough item downloaded .

All right .

So now we have just not enough items downloaded here .

Let's go ahead and drag it to our desktop .

Now , what we're gonna do guys is we're gonna copy it , open up our mods folder and then we're gonna paste it in here .

Boom .

OK .

So now we have just , just not enough items installed to our , our server .

Last thing we need to do is come to our search bar down here type run , click on that and then you're gonna get what you're gonna type here is percent app data , percent click .

OK .

Open up your dot minecraft , go to your mods and then drag your mod , just not enough items into your client .

OK .

So now we have it installed into our , our server right here and in our actual client , this is where your friends need to install the mod .

OK ?

They need to do the exact same thing .

Again .

They come down the search , run , open this up .

They type in percent app data percent .

OK dot minecraft mods .

And they're gonna drag the mod in here .

OK ?

In their mods folder , this is any time you want to install a mod to your clients and not the server , you have to make sure you install all the mods in the server .

OK ?

And on your client .

So you need to have them in both .

They only need it in their client and then they should be able to join and play with you .

So let's go ahead and hop into the game .

All right guys .

So we are now in the game .

Let's go ahead and click multiplayer , click add server type zero .

Done .

Join the server .

Now your friends will not be able to type in zero and join .

Like I said , you're gonna need to port forward and send them the I PV four address .

OK , guys , I'll leave links in the description for that .

Boom .

All right .

So we are now in the server guys , we should be able to , we should just have no , there we go .

We do .

Have it installed .

So as you can see , everything is good to go .

We have just not enough items installed if your friends installed to their client and join the server .

Hey , there we go .

A village .

They're gonna be able to join and get uh get it right away as well .

So make sure you , they install it to their client and they should have the same version and everything like that and they're gonna have it for you .

Ok , guys .
