Bedrock Server Hosting Apex Hosting has hosted servers for over 200,000 customers and we are constantly working to expand our services in order to better serve you. One of the best additions to our services is the implementation of Minecraft Bedrock Edition Hosting. Minecraft Bedrock Top 10 Best Servers 2020 (1.16+) - (Pocket Edition, Xbox, Windows 10, PS4, Switch) Hey guys and today I will be showcasing the best. Bedrock Dedicated Server (Alpha) is official server software for Windows and Ubuntu Linux to host your own server for Minecraft (Bedrock). This tutorial is intended to supplement the official bedrockserverhowto.html documentation included with the server software. Disclaimer: This is an unofficial tutorial.

Best Bedrock Pvp Server

Bedrock Anarchy Servers PE Wiki is a FANDOM Games Community. View Mobile Site. Minehut provides unlimited free server hosting for the Minecraft Community. Our Cloud Platform makes it easy to run a hit server.

Bedrock Dedicated Servers allow Minecraft players on Windows and Linux computers to set up their own server at home, or host their server using a cloud-based service.[1] This is in its early development stages, so as with any early release software, it may have severe issues. Due to this support may be stopped at any time.

Configuration[edit]

Main article: server.properties

BDS is a server hosting tool similar to the Java Edition server. Like Java Edition, there is a server.properties and whitelist.json file. Instead of ops.json, permissions are stored in the permissions.json file. Resource and behavior packs are in the resource_packs and behavior_packs directories. JSON files in the world directory set packs to be used, Minecraft clients generate them and can be uploaded to the server. Worlds are in a new world directory.

Bedrock Server Hosting

Connection[edit]

BDS allows users to connect except the Nintendo Switch. Xbox One users can only connect through a LAN connection. BDS uses UDP, unlike Java Edition which uses TCP. The default port for IPv4 is 19132, the default port for IPv6 is 19133; These can be changed in server.properties.

By default, Minecraft for Windows 10 does not support connections to a server hosted on the same machine (where you connect via 127.0.0.1/localhost). To fix this you must launch Windows PowerShell as an administrator and run the following:[2]

Alternatively, you can grant loopback exemption by Security Identifier (as recommended in bedrock_server_how_to.html file bundled with the server download). Launch PowerShell as an administrator and run the following:[3]

Whitelist[edit]

To use the whitelist, it needs to be enabled in server.properties. When enabled, the server will only allow selected users to connect, and you will need to know the Xbox Live gamertag and (optionally) XUID[4] of all players who want to join the server; players without an Xbox Live gamertag will not be able to connect. If your server is public and you do not enable the whitelist, you will not be able to ban players from the server.

To learn more about whitelisting, check out the bedrock_server_how_to.html file bundled with the server download). If you are having trouble with player behavior on a server that you own, whitelisting may be a good way to solve the issue.

Startup and maintenance scripts[edit]

The contents of this section are not supported by Mojang Studios or the Minecraft Wiki.
  • BDSAddonInstaller A node.js tool used for automatically installing, updating, and uninstalling addons/packs.
  • MCscripts systemd units, bash scripts, and chat bots for backups, automatic updates, installation, and shutdown warnings
  • MinecraftBedrockServer Sets up a Minecraft Bedrock dedicated server on Ubuntu / Debian / Raspbian / Armbian with options for automatic updates, backups and running automatically at startup
  • MCBEPlay MCBEPlay is primarily a Windows 10 GUI for the official BDS System, that enables you to control and manage your Minecraft Bedrock Edition Server with little to no knowledge of server systems. It also has automatic backups, can save automatically, and has auto restarts.
  • WinMSSScripts WinMSSScripts is a basic batch file to help create maintain backups of your worlds and log files as you run the official BDS System on Windows systems.
  • bedrock-in-docker Docker image for install, update, backup&restore and run the Minecraft Bedrock server.

Issues[edit]

Since this server software is still in Alpha phase, it still lacks many things from Java Edition:[feedback 1]

  • Server ignores default player permission level in server.properties
  • /reload for reloading to prevent crashes, similar to the one in Java Edition
  • A command to transfer between different worlds, similar to Lifeboat's world transfer system
  • A server invite system that allows Xbox One and Nintendo Switch users to connect, similar to Realms
  • Running the server on other platforms, similar to Lifeboat's Steadfast 2 server software on MacOS
  • Support for websocket server, similar to /wsserver
  • Experimental gameplay is not supported directly, need to use third-party applications to modify world
