Minecraft, Playing On LAN

Minecraft, Playing On LAN

This is a tutorial on how to play minecraft with your friends without hosting or buying a server. This teaches you how to set up a LAN server. (Note: This will only work if you are on the same internet connection)

Firstly you just need to open minecraft as you normally would. 

Then create a world. This is the world you will be playing on, if you want to use a pre-made world just open it.

Then once your world is loaded press Esc and then click "open to LAN". If you leave the world the server will close and you will have to reopen it.

Now adjust the setting you want the other players to be in.

Here is me and my friend zack (Aka Mangonaut_) playing on LAN together.

Hope you enjoyed this tutorial on how to set up your own LAN server. If you enjoyed the tutorial please leave a +1 or if you want to leave a comment.

Antichthon Minecraft Server

Antichthon is a great minecraft server. Its IP is (63.141.254.98) There is also a forums site for the server http://bbs.antichthon.net/index.php. With Pvp Survival, Factions, Creative Plots, Hunger-games and so many more mini-games its got everything you could possibly want in a server. The server has a friendly, polite and outgoing staff who are always willing to help. There are many plugins to enhance your experience. There is a currency system, Signshop, mcMMO which adds a ton of special abilitys to your player when using weapons and tools and the server also has a /tpa command allowing players to help each other out.

Hunger-games inside Antichthon

The hunger games is a fun Pvp game mode it allows you to select a kit and then fight to the death with your friends. Hunger games on this server is different to some others as you can cut down trees and craft and do anything else you could normally do in survival minecraft. After a certain period of time a feast spawns at a random locations. feasts contain many great things Diamond armour, Splash potions, buckets of lava and enchanting bottles

Mob Arena

Within Pvp survival there is a portal to the Mob arena where you can fight waves of mobs and get prizes! You can go in as a team however the amount of mobs increases the more people you have. You also get to pick a class by right clicking a sign and then clicking the iron block when your ready to fight.

                                  

Over all Antichthon is a great server which is bound to grow into one off the best servers there is. I would highly recommend you go and check it out now. Once again the IP is (63.141.254.98).
