Step 1: Download the Geyser plugin
First, you'll need to download the Geyser plugin from the official website: https://geysermc.org/. Click on the "Downloads" tab, then select the version of Minecraft you're running on your server. Click the "Download" button next to the latest version of Geyser.
Step 2: Install the Geyser plugin
Once you've downloaded the Geyser plugin, you'll need to install it on your Minecraft server. To do this, follow these steps:
- Connect to your server using an FTP client, such as FileZilla.
- Navigate to the "plugins" folder on your server.
- Drag and drop the Geyser.jar file you downloaded in Step 1 into the "plugins" folder.
Step 3: Restart your server
After you've installed the Geyser plugin, you'll need to restart your Minecraft server. This will ensure that the plugin is loaded correctly and ready to use.
Step 4: Configure the Geyser plugin
Now that you've installed the Geyser plugin, you'll need to configure it to work with your server. To do this, follow these steps:
- Open the "config.yml" file located in the "plugins/Geyser" folder.
- Modify the configuration settings as desired. You can find detailed information about the available configuration options on the Geyser documentation page: https://github.com/GeyserMC/Geyser/wiki/Configuration
- Save the changes you made to the "config.yml" file.
Step 5: Test the Geyser plugin
Finally, you'll want to test that the Geyser plugin is working as expected. To do this, follow these steps:
- Connect to your Minecraft server using a Bedrock Edition client (such as the mobile version of Minecraft).
- Enter your server's IP address and port number (default: 19132).
- Join the server and test out the features enabled by the Geyser plugin, such as cross-platform play between Bedrock and Java Edition players.
