How To Make Your Own Minecraft Server For Free First you'll need to create a folder called "Minecraft_Server" or something that can tell you this will be your Minecraft server folder. Now from here you can either download the .exe file or the .jar file. .exe is easier and I don't really know the difference between them, but if for some reason your just a .jar guy, then Im sorry but you can find another tutorial for the jar file. minecraft servers First, go to https://minecraft.net/download, and under Multiplayer Server, click on minecraft_server1.7.10.exe. That will start the download. Place the file in your Minecraft_Server folder. Run the file and it should load up all the worlds and stuff. After it says "Done! ", you can close it. Next, you'll have to set yourself as an operator (op). To do this, look at the other files in your Minecraft_Server folder and find "ops.txt." Type in your Minecraft username and you will become an op. If you want to more people, press enter, and then add their username. (i.e. TheDoctor Notch) Next open server.properties with notepad (this is very important you do it with notepad or another similar application) and change spawn-monsters=false to spawn-monsters=true. Now to join your server you'll need to find your ip address. I don't know how to find it on Windows, but it is probably is some system settings or network settings. Normally you would just type localhost into the multiplayer server, but other people not on the same Wi-Fi network can do that. So to get other people to join, you need to forward the port. To do that, go to http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/554-how-to-por... After that, tell some friends your ip address, and they are ready to join you.
