in need of help setting up a multi mod multi world forge server

[DracoSocard]

Hello, I am setting up a server and need some assistance

 

My children and i play on server that have Multiple type of mini games on them

some capture the flag other are run from ender dragons and so on

I would like to set up something similar, I have 3 boys, myself and friends who like Minecraft and to meet the needs of everyone i wanted to make one server that would meet a lot of needs but not in one world.

 

I wanna make a server that has a portal hub which allows players to go from one to another (that is the easy part)

but i want these worlds to be completely different. example:i want a standard (pretty much vanilla) world, a pixelmon world, and a few others like the doc who mod..

 

the thing is i dont know how to make a server that has all of it,

 

any help/comments are welcome

 

thank you

Assuming you have quite some experience with mods/servers it is still hard to setup if not even impossible.

 

You need to pick proper versions first - 1.8?

 

The main problem is that both server (one) and client cannot just do what you want. If you would have one server with multiple worlds with different mods, the server will have to run all these mods and mods would have to allow per-world configuration (which almost none of them have). Even if that was possible for all your mods the client would have to have all of those mods installed which then gives next problem that client would display stuff (e.g items in creative inventory or some inventories from different mods) which are not currently allowed in world you are in (e.g no Pixelmon items in vanilla world).

 

The only way to go about it is to setup Spigot hub (?) that allows any type of connection and then redirects to different server with specific mod. In this case you would have to setup multiple servers connected to hub.

 

I can only speak from current Forge Modding side, I had too long break from administrating servers to know what changed.

 

Google is probably your best friend - lookup bungecoord, spigot, cauldron, etc...
