How to Host a Forge Minecraft Server

1. Log In for the First Time

After placing your order on the Cybrancee website, you will receive an email confirming your order as well as an email inviting you to create your panel account. To get access for the first time, you will need to create your panel account.

Select the ‘Setup Your Account’ button.

If you did not receive this email, you can go to panel.cybrancee.com and do a Password Reset from there.

2. Set Your Password

Set your password using the provided fields.

---

3. Access Your Panel Dashboard

You will be taken back to the login page where you can now log in with your new set of credentials. Once logged in, you will be presented with the Cybrancee Pterodactyl Control Panel. This is where you will manage and configure your game server. From here, select the ‘Manage Server’ button.

---

4. Get Your Connection Details

By default, the world will have started automatically with the default settings on the latest version of Minecraft. To join your server, use the IP address and port provided on the dashboard. If you’re using Forge, it’s very likely you will be wanting to install some mods. To do this, first locate the desired mods/modpack on CurseForge: https://curseforge.com/minecraft.

---

5. Find and Install Your Chosen Modpack

Open the mod/modpack page and select the orange ‘Install’ button. This will begin the installation process.

---

6. Open the Modpack Searcher

Go to the panel and select the ‘Modpacks’ option on the left.

---

7. Find Your Modpack

Change the provider to CurseForge and search for the Modpack you’re looking for. Select the install icon on the modpack.

---

8. Install the Mods to the Server

You will then need to select the version of the modpack to install (make sure this matches what you downloaded from CurseForge). It is recommended to also enable the option to delete the files – this ensures a clean installation. Select the ‘Install modpack’.

---

9. Start Your Minecraft Server

Go to the ‘Console’ page and start the server (it is always best to start the server from the console page so you can see any outputs, such as error messages).

---

10. Start the Launcher From CurseForge

Go back to CurseForge on your computer, open the modpack again and select the ‘Play’ button.

---

11. Launch Minecraft

When the Minecraft Launcher opens, select ‘PLAY’ at the top.

---

12. Open the Multiplayer Page

Select the ‘Multiplayer’ button on the Minecraft homepage to begin adding your new server.

---

13. Add Your Server to Your Minecraft Client

Give the server a suitable name and enter the IP address and port from Step 5 into the ‘Server Address’ field, use the format IP_ADDRESS:PORT (e.g., 123.123.123.123:5000) – This is very important. Select ‘Done’.

If you do not see this screen straight away, select the ‘Add Server’ button that will be at the bottom of the screen.

---

14. Join Your New Server
