Minecraft plans

€2 per GB of RAM, with no setup fee and no contract. The slots you see are real: when they run out we close, instead of cramming more in.

Not sure which one? Two questions

How many of you will play at once?

Any mods?

Fast-core processors, which is what games notice most: Intel Xeon E-2274G (up to 4.9 GHz) or AMD Ryzen 9 5900X (up to 4.8 GHz), depending on the machine. The vCPU is the most your server can use (1 vCPU = one processor thread); the RAM, on top of that, is yours alone.

Minecraft questions

How much RAM does a Minecraft server need?

For a group of friends with plugins, 4 GB is plenty. With a medium modpack, 6 GB; with a heavy one like All the Mods, 8 GB or more. What weighs most isn't the players, it's the mods and the terrain being explored.

Can I use Paper, Purpur, Fabric, Forge or NeoForge?

Yes. It comes with Paper, and from the panel you switch it to Fabric, Forge or NeoForge, in whatever version you want, without losing your world. You can also install whole modpacks from Modrinth or CurseForge in one click.

Can my friends join from mobile or console (Bedrock)?

Yes: one click in the panel adds Geyser, and Bedrock players join the same server. From mobile and Windows, directly; from consoles, through BedrockConnect.

How do my friends join?

With your own address like yourserver.play.napnodes.com, typed into Multiplayer with no port. You can choose the name from the panel.

Is there a free server?

Yes: a free 3 GB Minecraft server, no card and no end date. It uses the room nobody has paid for: you start it from the panel (if there's no room, you join the queue) and it switches itself off when nobody is on; if nobody plays for 14 days, it's deleted. If you want it always on, with no queues and with backups, you move to a plan and it stays the same server with your world.
