About this video: If you want to know how to play RLCraft with your friends, this is the video for you! We show you exactly how to make a RLCraft server. This includes everything including downloading the RLCraft server files, adding Forge the server to get RLCraft working, and even port forwarding to allowing your friends to play RLCraft with you on your server.
First things first though, I do want to note that an RLCraft server is one of the most difficult modpack servers to start. It is on an older version of Minecraft and requires additional downloads for this reason. It’s all covered here, but if you want to easiest way to play RLCraft with your friends, our company SimpleGameHosting has a one-click installer of Minecraft modpacks including RLCraft. It is designed to make creating an RLCraft server easy.
With that being said, the first step of making an RLCraft server is downloading RLCraft on CurseForge. Everyone who joins the server must have RLCraft downloaded in order to join it using CurseForge. There is a complete guide in the description above.
Next, up we need to download the Forge installer, the specific version of Forge we want to get is the latest release of Minecraft 1.12.2. There is a link above that will take you to our website where you can click “Download Forge”. Then, on the Forge download page, select 1.12.2 on the left-hand side and click “Installer” under the Latest section.
Next, we need to download the RLCraft server pack from the description above. Once you are on the link above, click on “Files” and then click on the most recent version of RLCraft. At the bottom of this page, you will see the RLCraft Server Pack. Click the three dots next to it, and click on “Download File”.
Finally, right-click on the RLCraft server pack file you downloaded and click “Extract All”. Then, click “Extract”. The RLCraft server pack will be extracted.
After that, open up the Forge installer with Java. Then, click on install server. Click the three dots in the red box that appears and select the RLCraft server pack folder. The redbox will still be there, and click “Okay”. You may get a warning, but it is okay to proceed. This will install Forge for RLCraft.
Open the RLCraft server folder and rename the “forge” file in this to simply “forge.jar”. Then, right-click and select “New”, and then “Text Document”. Open the text document and copy the code from the description above into it. Save the file as “run.bat”, and make sure the Save Type As is set to “All Files”.
Finally, double-click the run.bat file. The server will attempt to start, but you will need to agree to the EULA. Open the eula.txt file that has appeared and change “eula=false” to “eula=true” if you agree to the EULA.
Finally, double-click the run.bat file again, and the RLCraft server will start.
Now, in order for your friends to join your RLCraft server, you will need to port forward. Specifically, you will need to forward port 25565 on the TCP and UDP protocols. This is all outlined in the video. Once you finish port forwarding, your friends can join your RLCraft server using your public IP.
At this point though, you know exactly how to make an RLCraft server. If you have any questions about how to play RLCraft with your friends, let us know in the comments. We will try our best to help you out.
