#179047 So im trying to make a server for me and my friends and im using the method just downloading the files with forge and manually putting it in the files and when im done and run the Run.bat it just instantly closes without even opening it just flashes and im assuming thats the only way to get it going with the mod because if i try to just click the server when i go into the server its just vanilla. I dont know what to do thanks in advance!!!


Also is it possible to make a server using the Pixelmon launcher? because i cant figure out how to get the server running without it being vanilla. if it is possible is there a tutorial link somewhere?

#179112 When posting msgs. like this it helps to provide data, the crash report or even screen messages to help give as focused a reply as possible. Whats in your run.bat for instance?

Here's a basic guide to getting a pixelmon server up and running on the current sponge and forge releases (when you ignore the recommended version in the download page :/)

1. download http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/n ... er-win.exe then run, select install server
2. install server to folder e.g. C:\pixelmonserver
3. browse to C:\pixelmonserver
4. run minecraft_server.1.8.9.jar then exit
5. close then edit and save eula.txt changing eula=false to eula=true
6. run minecraft_server.1.8.9.jar once again then exit
7. customize server.properties as necessary.
7. run forge-1.8.9-11.15.1.1902-1.8.9-universal.jar then stop and exit
8. download and save http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/o ... A-1572.jar to c:\pixelmonserver\mods
9. download pixelmon 4.2.7 - 1.8.9 - Recommended from downloads.php and save jar file to c:\pixelmonserver\mods
10. run forge-1.8.9-11.15.1.1902-1.8.9-universal.jar
11. enjoy pixelmon server, nb. to add more mods and spongeplugins to c:\pixelmonserver\mods

here's a simple run.bat copy and save to c:\pixelmonserver
@echo off
echo %cd%>"%temp%\serverpath.txt"
set /P serverpath=<"%temp%\serverpath.txt"
cd /d "%serverpath%"
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%M IN ('dir /b ^"forge*.jar^"') DO java.exe -jar %%M -nogui
pause
exit
