Evolution

How to Join the Evolution Server

The server is currently accessible at the address bazalgnamunch.com.

If you are connecting to java, it is open on the port 25565. The clients of the same or greater java version will be able to connect to the server. Check the schedule to see what version the server is currently running.

.

If you are connecting on bedrock is it open on the default port 19132. The implementation to let bedrock players join is far from officially supported, so if something doesn’t work, let me know and I’ll try and fix it(it’s probably caused or fixed by updates on one end or the other).

What is the Evolution Server

HERE is a more in depth explanation and schedule for the server but the basic idea is a server that will play through all major Minecraft versions starting with release version 1.0.0, and updating when 1 of following 2 conditions is met:

1. The first of a month is reached
2. The Ender Dragon is slain

The server has a few automated schedules beyond the monthly updates:

1. 4am MST The sever will shutdown for about 10 minutes to create a backup of the world save.
2. 5am MST The map will be re-rendered to show any changes. The server will not shut down but it may slow down.
3. Every 5 minutes playerdata is backed up so if Minecraft jankiness kills you or something let me know within an hour and I can fix it.

Rules / Guidelines

My intention is that this will be a long lasting server that I will continue to host long into the foreseeable future. So, in order to aid with that goal I would remind everyone that a Minecraft server is fun when everyone can collaborate and hang out together.

• griefing or hiding your base 10,000 blocks from spawn is cringe
• building near spawn and just building stuff for the fun of it is based.

The Map

After clicking on these links you will need to refresh the page and the map will appear. If the map glitches out after some time just close the tab and re-open it and it will be fixed. This map is cobbled together until an real map plugin is available in later updates. Also https://map.bazalgnamunch.com will take you directly to the map. https://bluemap.bazalgnamunch.com will take you to a 3d version of the map.

The Future

As noted, I want to keep this server running for a long time so any feedback on what would make it better or funerer is welcomed. As we get to more modern Minecraft versions I may add a map or some other plugins depending on demand. Additionally, I have implemented a shared notes system here: https://hedge.bazalgnamunch.com/mQ0gJHU2RsimUdfkQmzADA#.

Suggested Configs/Mods

Optifine(Forge) or Entity Texture Features(Fabric)

The server modpack may make use of custom entity textures in the resourcepack. Having a mod with support for this system, will let you actually see the textures. Use optifine if you are using a forge instance, or ETF if you are using a fabric instance.

Prism Launcher

I just tried out the Prism Launcher today and I’m impressed with it’s functionality. I’ve used multimc for a long time, and the Prism Launcher really seems to be a better version of that with more features.

Bobby and Nvidium

Bobby Works with shaders. Caches chunks or something so you can get a 32 chunk render distance even on servers.

Nvidium Doesn’t work with shaders. Requires Sodium and a nvidia gpu but caches regions and uses rendering magic to get absurd render distances.

Here’s some results from using both on the server:

Here’s an example of just using bobby with shaders:
