MCServer can run on PCs, Macs, and *nix. This includes android phones and tablets as well as Raspberry Pis. +We currently support the protocol from Minecraft 1.2 all the way up to Minecraft 1.7.9. + Installation ------------ -To install MCServer, you can either download the repository and compile it, or download a pre-compiled version. - -If you've cloned the repository using Git, you need to pull down the submodules (core plugins, some dependencies). This can be achieved with `git submodule init` and then on a regular basis (to keep up to date) `git submodule update`. +Normally, you will want to download a pre-compiled version of MCServer from one of the buildservers: -If you downloaded a ZIP file of the sources instead, you will need to download PolarSSL, too, from https://github.com/polarssl/polarssl , and unpack it into the `lib/polarssl` folder. You will also need to manually download all the plugins that you want included. + * [Linux and Raspberry Pi](http://ci.bearbin.net) (Bearbin's CI Server) + * [Windows](http://mc-server.xoft.cz) (xoft's nightly build service) -Compilation instructions are available in the COMPILING file. +You simply need to download and extract these files before you can use the server. -Linux builds can be downloaded from [Bearbin's CI Service](http://ci.bearbin.net) and Windows builds from xoft's [nightly build service](http://mc-server.xoft.cz). - -After you've extracted the files, simply run the MCServer executable. +If you're a more advanced user, you may want to compile the server yourself for more performance.
