PaperMC: The Best Balance for Your Windows Server
COMPATIBILITY ALERT: PaperMC is designed to run PLUGINS. It DOES NOT support Mods like machines or new biomes from Forge/Fabric. If you want to run a Modpack like ATM10, you need a Forge server, not Paper.
PaperMC is the number one choice for 90% of home servers. Why? Because it is extremely lightweight, fixes security flaws from the original Minecraft, and allows you to add incredible features via plugins without requiring your friends to install anything on their PCs.
Advantages of Paper
- Performance: The code is optimized so your Windows can handle more players without lag.
- Plugins: Supports thousands of extensions for land protection, login, and teleportation.
- Transparency: Your friends join using normal Minecraft (Vanilla).
How to Install (Step by Step)
- Download the latest
.jarfile from the papermc.io website. - Create a folder on your computer named
Paper_Server. - Put the file inside and rename it to
paper.jar. - Create a
start.batfile with the following code:
@echo off
java -Xmx4G -Xms4G -jar paper.jar nogui
pause
After running it for the first time, remember to open eula.txt and change it to true.
Conclusion
PaperMC is the foundation for anyone who wants a serious and stable survival server. It allows you to manage your community with professional tools while maintaining ease of access for your players.
