I was able to log into our world on Minecraft Realms and everything looked good. (At some point I will do a post about how Minecraft was in part a success due to the fact that it was created in a world where it resources like drive space were readily available.) Weighing in at more than 800mb, the upload took a bit of time, but it went through successfully.

Then I clicked on my one remaining empty world slot (the first two were test runs) where it let me select our world to upload. I managed to get that sorted and a right items in the right place so the world appeared as a local realm that I could successfully log into. That generally just means putting the “world” folder in the “Saves” directory for Minecraft, but since we tried running a couple different server types over the last nine months… in search of better performance… our directory had a some extras in it, including two extra copies of the nether in their own folders, as opposed to the DIM1 (or is is the DIM-1?) directory. That meant making a backup of our current world, downloading it, and then converting it into something that could be accessed locally. You can generate them from scratch as with a local game, but to use a current world you have to have it available locally as a single player world first. You can have three different worlds on your realm, though only one may be running at a time. You do all of your server work in the Minecraft client. Or the bits that you do get are not like that at all. You don’t get any of that with Minecraft Realms. They both used the same third party admin tool, both gave me FTP access to our partition, and allowed me to basically tinker with all the bits and settings directly.

Netherbyte and MC Pro Hosting were similar, if not in pricing and service, then in how you managed your server. That was on Thursday last week, and I had until Sunday to wrap things up with MC Pro Hosting.ĭealing with Minecraft Realms though, that is a little different than other hosting services. Still, I had gotten a peek and decided to commit.
#Dead realm free server hosting trial
I setup a trial server a few weeks back, and then life got in the way and I never quite got back to it until last week, after the trial had expired. However, late last year Mojang decided to fix the pricing part, dropping the rates to as low as $7.99 a month for a six month run, $8.99 a month for a three month commitment, and $9.99 for a month to month billing cycle.Īnd, they also offer a free two week trial.

It was just expensive relative to what else was out there. However, given that only eight people have ever logged on to our server, and having even four of us on at once was a rare occasion, I felt that our server plan (we ended up with the Iron Plan), advertised as good to host up 40 players, should have been sufficient, especially given we were using the vanilla server with no mods.īack when I was first looking at hosting plans, people had nice things to say about Minecraft Realms, which is Mojang’s own hosting service.

#Dead realm free server hosting upgrade
Performance on our server there was poor, especially at peak hours, and the only solution they had to offer was to upgrade our service. As I mentioned in the last Minecraft post, our term with MC Pro Hosting was up this past weekend and I was looking for a new home.
