Joining + Quick Start Tips

Connecting to the Server

The IP is mc.NostalgiaCraft.fun, the server supports both Java and Bedrock crossplay. However, if you are on Bedrock edition, you will need to use 19132 for your port. Java players do not need to specify a port.

Getting Started on the Server

It’s incredibly simple to get yourself started on NostalgiaCraft. The recommended method to get started is to use the [/wild] command to be teleported out of spawn and into the wilderness.

Afterward, as long as you’re 700 blocks away from the middle of spawn, you are free to get started, and won’t be affected by spawn graylist restrictions. It is only recommended to do [/wild] to make your starter base to gather resources. Please make sure to read all of our rules, especially those regarding stealing/PvP and griefing.

Building a Final Base

Stealing and PvP outside of spawn is allowed, so be careful! Making a well-hidden final base is crucial. NostalgiaCraft’s massive world size allows you to hide your base far away from spawn, and be able to teleport to it with [/home]. Here are some tips:

  • Don’t build your base at obvious coordinates or on an axis (for example 10k, 10k)
  • Don’t build your base exactly at the world border
  • Remove your nether portal on the nether side (set a [/sethome] in the overworld and remove the portal then do [/home])
  • Don’t build a gold farm or any nether project at your base’s nether coordinates
  • Put valuables in an enderchest, spawn has some (enderchests have 27 slots, if you use shulkers for all 27 slots, you can store 27 x 27 = 729 slots of items)

Making Your Base Far From Spawn

  1. Obtain 10 obsidian, flint and steel
  2. Access the Nether roof (the Nether hub has a stairway to the bedrock roof; there is also an enderpearl dispenser at the bottom of the stairway)
  3. Travel to desired overworld coordinates (the recommended distance to build your final base is 10,000+ blocks away from spawn)
  4. Build a Nether portal and enter the Nether portal to Overworld
  5. Set a home with [/sethome] in the Overworld
  6. Re-enter the Nether portal, destroy the portal on the Nether side
  7. Teleport to Overworld side using [/home]
