Tutorial: How to Change Your Minecraft Server Version on Freeminecrafthost.com
Hello everyone! In this tutorial, I’ll guide you step-by-step on how to change your Minecraft server version on Freeminecrafthost.com. Whether you’re updating to the latest version or switching to a different server type, these instructions will help you get it done smoothly.
Steps to Change Your Server Version
Log in and Access the Server Control Panel
Start by logging into your Freeminecrafthost.com account. Once logged in, navigate to the server control panel where you can manage your servers.
Select Your Server
From the control panel, find and click on the server you want to modify. This will bring up its specific settings.
Open the Control Panel Menu (mobile users)
With your server selected, open the control panel menu. This menu gives you access to additional server management options.
Locate and Click "More"
Scroll down within the menu until you see the "More" option. Click on it to expand further settings.
Access the "Versions" Section
In the "More" options, find and click on "Versions". This is where you can change your server’s software and version.
Choose Your Minecraft Server Type
Select the type of Minecraft server software you prefer, such as Vanilla, Spigot, Paper, or any other options provided by Freeminecrafthost.com.
Pick the Desired Version
After choosing the server type, select the specific version you want to install (e.g., 1.18.1 for Spigot). Make sure it’s compatible with your needs!
Install the New Version
Once you’ve selected your version, click the "Install" button to begin the installation process. This will apply the changes to your server.
Optional: Wiping Server Files
During the installation, you might see an option to wipe all server files. This clears out all existing data (like worlds, plugins, and settings) for a fresh start.
Caution: Wiping files is permanent! If you choose this, back up any important data beforehand to avoid losing it.
Important Note
- Before starting, ensure your server is in the right state for these changes. You may need to stop your server first, as some hosting platforms require this to update versions.
- And your server needs to be activated first otherwise these actions wouldn't work
Final Steps
After completing the process, start your server to run the newly installed version. You’re all set to enjoy Minecraft with your updated settings!
