# How to start playing?

## Installing Minecraft

Of course, in order to play on the server you'll need to play Minecraft itself. We recommend using a licensed version of Minecraft, but if you still want to play on pirate, we give you this opportunity.

{% hint style="info" %}
<mark style="color:blue;">On the server you can play both the licensed version of Minecraft and the pirated version. Everything is for the convenience of the players :)</mark>
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
<mark style="color:red;">While we offer the option to play on pirate versions, it's safer to stick with legitimate copies. Pirate versions might come with nasty viruses, so be careful with them. Stay safe and go legit (if your finances allow, of course).</mark>
{% endhint %}

## Entering the server

Okay, you already have Minecraft. Next, you need to log in to the server. You need Minecraft **JAVA EDITION** version, **1.19.X - 1.20.X** to play on the server. Here are the instructions.

{% hint style="info" %}
<mark style="color:blue;">We strongly recommend using the</mark> <mark style="color:blue;"></mark><mark style="color:blue;">**Forge**</mark> <mark style="color:blue;"></mark><mark style="color:blue;">version instead of any other one.</mark>
{% endhint %}

If you can't get into the server:

* make sure you typed in the correct IP address
* make sure you have internet
* make sure you have a compatible version of Minecraft [<mark style="color:blue;">(read above)</mark>](#entering-the-server)
* it is possible that the server administration is doing technical work; all news can be found in our Discord server [<mark style="color:blue;">(click)</mark>](../../main-information#links)
* other reasons

## Registration

When logging into the server, you will first have to pass a captcha (it's easy).

Next, you will need to register. To do this, you need to enter the following command into the chat:

```
/reg [password] [password]
```

If you have already registered and want to log in, write this command in chat:

```
/l [password]
```

If you want to change your password:

```
/changepassword [old password] [new password]
```

## How to enter the world?

After authorization, you find yourself in the hub. To enter the game world, you just need to click on an NPC and choose a world (so far, there's only one).

If you are unable to enter the game world, here are the possible causes:

* technical work is underway in the world (all the news is on our Discord server)
* you have been banned for some reason (such issues can also be resolved on the Discord server)
* try clicking on the "refresh" button, sometimes it helps; no wonder I added it there :)
* other (idk, anything is possible)

## Resource pack

There was a resource pack with textures on the server, but it was later deleted because it worked crappy for some players.
