Minecraft / How to Increase RAM on Minecraft Client (Not server)
« on: 15 November 2022, 21:12:41 »
If your PC (or any connecting client PC) are using a large modpack and you have issues with connecting (such as timeout or slow frame rates) you may need to set a higher RAM value of the modpack's java instance. This is a client side RAM and does not affect the server.

This can be achieved from Minecraft Launcher before clicking "Play" to start the game.

Step 1) Go to the Installations Tab and edit the modpack settings as per image below





Step 2 )Choose More Options






Step 3) Look for -xmx and note the numbers after it. If it says 4096m then it means its set to 4GB RAM startup, which is default setting and this may be too low for large modpacks. Try increasing this number to 5000m for 5GB or 6000m for 6GB or higher (This depends on how much RAM you have on your PC, see notes below)



 

Step 4) You can now save it and launch the modpack



NOTES:
Before increasing the RAM settings for your modpack, you need to make sure that you PC has sufficient free RAM

Your Task Manager can show you how much RAM remaining you have, like in this case below, there is 31.9GB total RAM and only 47% is used so far. This means it is possible to start the modpack with 16GB of RAM but its a good idea to have a bit extra for the OS and other programs, so 14GB would be the maximum.

Minecraft / Dynmap/BlueMap port and domains
« on: 25 March 2021, 18:39:59 »
Do you support Dynmap/BlueMap?

Yes! We support both. You can install it from Bukkit Plugins section or upload the jar.

What is my Dynmap/BlueMap port?

Dynmap/BlueMap port is automatically assigned for your server when you install the plugin and start your server.
You will see the port in Express Settings --> Server Address section of the control panel.

The control panel will automatically edit the configs for you, so just restart server and go!


Custom Domains for Dynmap:

We now support custom domains on Dynmap so you don't have to type the IP address and Port.  You can choose our domain and set any subdomain you like or use your own registered domain.

We are currently building an automated feature in the control panel so you can set it easily like you can already for the server address.

For now, just contact us via support and let us know what domain you would like set.

You can either go to the CONSOLE section of the control panel and type:

Code: [Select]
gamerule showcoordinates true

Or if you have Ops, you can type the command in-game

Code: [Select]
/gamerule showcoordinates true


What about your Java Editions?:

In Java Edition, pressing F3(or Fn+F3 on Macs and some laptops or Alt+Fn+F3 on newer Macs) brings up a debug screen which also gives the player's current coordinates.

Minecraft / Adding Resource Pack (Texture pack) to a server
« on: 15 March 2020, 10:53:26 »
How to add Resource Pack (Texture pack) to a server:

You need to upload the resource pack to a website with a direct download link (if you give us the file we can load it on our download servers for you - contact support)

Then you paste that link into your server.properties file where it says resource-pack:

Note that the ":" and "=" characters need to be escaped with backslash (\), e.g. http\://stipe.com.au/somepack.zip?someparam\=somevalue
 

Final outcome should look like this:
resource-pack=http\://stipe.com.au/somepack.zip?someparam\=somevalue

News and Updates / RL Craft time!
« on: 18 September 2019, 05:34:03 »
Our Modpack mention of the month: RL Craft!

Ready for some ultimate fun? Or frustration? This is Minecraft in a whole different perspective! Take your vanilla minecraft and throw it away as this is real life, dragons, random spawns, falling trees which kill..

We highly recommend checking out some tutorials on youtube before getting stuck into this one!
(No its not a bug that you can't chop trees with your bare hands any more!)
(Its also not a bug that you can't pickup items from the ground by simply walking over them)

As always, the modpack is tweaked and ready to install from the Plugins and Modpack section! Happy crafting!

Minecraft / Server Overloaded?
« on: 13 September 2019, 07:58:02 »
We are currently adding a feature to help identify when you server is overloading and causes for it. This will help with keeping a smooth lag free server!

Common Lag Issues:
Server Engine Thread Overloaded
Server Engine Thread is the brain of Minecraft, when the “brain” is overloaded, everything starts to lag.
Unfortunately, the Server Engine Thread is only single cpu core support. Your server has 32 cpu cores assigned which works well when you have lots of players as this is multi-threaded (Also explains why your server CPU goes above 100% - this is normal!) But Entity control such as Animals/Mobs, Chunk Loading/Generation and Chunk Manipulation are all tied to the Server Engine Thread which is single threaded only (Sad face!), this is the way Minecraft was developed for technical reasons.

Today’s most powerful CPU’s are built for more cores rather than a single core with more power. Both Intel/AMD have taken this approach. STIPE Servers Australia have pick CPU’s that have the highest single core available in the market while also keeping a high core count so you can have more players and more mobs and less lag! But even with today’s most powerful CPU we can find, it has its limits per core, and that that means you are limited to how many animals and mobs can roam around the server. Mojang have not come up with a way to make this multi-threaded yet, so until then we must tweak our servers and maintain a balance. This is where STIPE comes in! We have amazing tools to help identify the cause of overloaded Server Thread and help resolve it. Just contact us!
