Want to play Better MC with friends? With your own server the world runs around the clock – even when you are offline.
The quickest way: order it fully installed
On the Better MC server page you order a server on which the pack is installed and tested automatically. The right resources are already selected. After about 5–15 minutes you can play. Want to try first? You can also test the pack for 2 hours for free there.
Install it yourself
Already have a Minecraft server with us? Install BMC4 in one click:

Tips
- BMC4 or BMC5? BMC4 runs on Minecraft 1.20.1 (Forge), BMC5 on 1.21.1 (NeoForge). Both need 8 GB. Your friends need exactly the same edition.
- Better MC changes world generation a lot – a world from plain Minecraft doesn't fit. Best start with a new world.
Invite friends
Every player needs BMC4 in the same version as the server – easiest via the CurseForge app or the Modrinth app. See Playing a modpack with friends. Someone can't get in: Friends can't join.
