It's stable apart from the usual share of glitches Minecraft comes with, there's no Bukkit yet - but it works, and works well now. And it's configured the way the community wanted it to.

The server does run on Windows Server 2012...

It does? That's surprising. I realize that this is Neowin, but Minecraft Server Manager - which is clearly the only sane way to run a Minecraft server - is not supported on Windows!

 

Also, could I please be whitelisted again? My Minecraft username is the same as my Neowin one.

Yes. It's possible I mistyped your MC login while whitelisting you - however I can't check as I am at work now. Sorry.

 

You'll have to ask either Louisifer or Chasethebase to check.

thats ok no rush, I'd just home from work and thought i would jump on and get started but it won't let me.

might be a good thing I can't get on atm as I am cooking dinner and probably shouldn't get too distracted from that

To be completely honest, I had not heard of that one before. The list of features looks impressive - and I can certainly understand why some Minecraft server admins would find it attractive - but based on a cursory overview of its advertised features it appears to have several disadvantages compared to Minecraft Server Manager. From a usability perspective, McMyAdmin appears to only allow administration via a GUI. While graphical interfaces (whether that be a web GUI or native GUI) are attractive in some cases, I consider them something to be avoided in server administration. Furthermore McMyAdmin imposes some ridiculous limitations on free users. For example, I see no reason why the server should be limited to 10 users in-game for the free personal version. The official Minecraft server binary is available for free and imposes no such restriction, so McMyAdmin is apparently doing extra work to impose an artificial restriction in that regard! There are also several features which Minecraft Server Manager prominently advertises - such as integrated backups, automatic server updates, convenient log access, and support for running multiple Minecraft servers simultaneously on the same host - which the McMyAdmin documentation makes no mention of. Finally, McMyAdmin seems to be fairly light on official documentation and is not open-source. I think I'll pass.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By tboggs13 · Posted

      Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
