Thank you for downloading LegendCraft, a custom Minecraft server based on fCraft and 800craft.
Special thanks to fragmer, for creating fCraft! Special thanks to Jonty800, GlennMR and LaoTszy for creating 800Craft! LegendCraft is a modified version of 800Craft. LegendCraft configGUIs and serverGUIs were moddeled after 800Craft's.
=== Installation (Windows) ====================================================
LegendCraft requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0. Your system may already have it installed, and you can download it from microsoft.com
=== Installation (Linux, Unix, MacOS X) =======================================
LegendCraft requires Mono 2.10 (recommended). You can download it from www.mono-project.org, or (on some Linux distributions) install it through your package manager.
To be able to use graphical LegendCraft components (ServerGUI and ConfigGUI) you will also need GDI+ library (libgdiplus). Before starting LegendCraft, make sure that it has read/write permissions in the LegendCraft directory.
To run ".exe" files with Mono, use the following syntax: Mono 2.6.4: "mono SomeFile.exe" Mono 2.8+: "mono --gc=sgen SomeFile.exe"
If you're intending to run a public server that appears on minecraft.net's server list, you need to import https certificates to tell mono you trust them, this can be done by running mozroots --import --ask-remove as the 800Craft user on your system.
=== Initial Setup =============================================================
Before starting the server for the first time, run ConfigGUI.exe to choose your server's name and settings.
You may need to add firewall exceptions for LegendCraft applications (ConfigGUI, ServerGUI, or ServerCLI, or ServerWinService) to allow incoming TCP connections on the listening port. Default port is 25565.
If your server is behind a router, you may also need to set up port forwarding on the same port. See www.port-forward.com for further guidance.
When you are ready to start the server, run ONE of the available server front-ends (GUI, CLI, or WinService).
=== Troubleshooting ===========================================================
Server does not show up on minecraft.net list: Make sure that server is public. Open ConfigGUI, set Visibility: [Public] (or set to true in config.xml).
"Could not connect to server: it's probably down": Make sure that you added firewall exception for 800Craft (if applicable), and forwarded the port on your router. If you are connecting from same computer that the server is working on, try connecting to: http://www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?ip=127.0.0.1&port=____ (fill in the blank with your server's port number)
"Could not verify player name": Verification problems occur when your 800Craft server cannot verify identity of connecting players. Here are some things that may cause or fix verification problems: 1. If minecraft.net is offline or slow, wait for it to stabilize. 2. If minecraft.net is working but you still cant verify name, log out then log back in. 3. Try restarting your server. Wait a couple minutes before trying to connect to a newly-restarted server (to give your server time to synchronize with minecraft.net). 4. If you (or your players) are using WoM client's "Resume" function, which uses cached verification information, use the proper log-in procedure in WoM. The "Resume" function only works as long as your IP does not change and as long as the server does not restart. 5. If you are using WoM and connecting with a bookmark, make sure that the bookmarked address starts with "http://www.minecraft.net/..." and not "mc://...". Addresses in the form "mc://" are temporary, and will stop working whenever the server is restarted.
Other players cannot connect from the same LAN/network as me: Minecraft client has a lot of trouble working on LAN. You probably will not be able to connect via the public URL. There is a workaround:
1. Check "Allow connections from LAN without verification" in ConfigGUI.
(or set <AllowUnverifiedLAN> to true in config.xml).
2. Find your local IP address.
* In Windows XP+, go to Start -> type "cmd" to open a terminal ->
type "ipconfig". The address you need is labeled "IPv4 Address"
under "Local Area Connection".
* In Unix/Linux, use "ifconfig" utility.
- Connect to http://www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?ip=____&port=____ (fill in the blanks with your server's IP address and port number)
=== List of Files =============================================================
ConfigGUI.exe - Graphical interface for editing your server's settings,
rank setup, and world list. Also includes a map coverter
and terrain generator. If you alter configuration while
the server is running, use /reloadconfig command to
apply the changes. Note that some changes (like changes
to the rank list and IRC configuration) require a full
server restart.
ConfigCLI.exe - A simple command-line configuration tool.
fCraft.dll - Core of the server, used by all other applications.
fCraftGUI.dll - Provides shared functionality for Config and Server GUI.
ServerCLI.exe - Command-line interface for the server.
ServerGUI.exe - Graphical interface for the server.
=== Command-line Options ======================================================
In addition to many settings stored in config.xml, LegendCraft has several special options that can only be set via command-line switches:
--path=<path> Working path (directory) that LegendCraft should use. If the
given path is relative, it's computed against the
location of fCraft.dll
--logpath=<path> Path (directory) where the log files should be placed.
If the given path is relative, it's computed against the
working path.
--mappath=<path> Path (directory) where the map files should be loaded
from/saved to. If the given path is relative, it's
computed against the working path.
--config=<file> Path (file) of the configuration file, including the
filename (typically "config.xml"). If the given path
is relative, it's computed against the working path.
--norestart If this flag is present, LegendCraft will shutdown whenever
it would normally restart (e.g. automatic updates or
/restart command). This may be useful if you are using
an auto-restart script or a process monitor.
--exitoncrash If this flag is present, LegendCraft frontends will exit
at once in the event of an unrecoverable crash, instead
of showing a message and prompting for user input.
--nolog If this flag is present, all logging is disabled.
--nocolor If this flag is present, ServerCLI will not use any
colors or formatting in its console output.
=== Help & Support ============================================================
When you first join the server, promote yourself by typing... /rank YourNameHere owner ...in the server's console. Replace "owner" if you renamed your highest rank.
Type "/help" in-game or in server console to get started. Type "/commands" for a list of available commands.
