How to download and install Bed Wars on Minecraft
If you want to play Bed Wars on Minecraft, you have two options: you can either download the official Bed Wars map from the Minecraft Marketplace or join a Bed Wars server hosted by other players. In this section, we will show you how to do the first option.
The official Bed Wars map is created by Waypoint Studios and is available for purchase on the Minecraft Marketplace for 830 Minecoins. You can access the Marketplace from your Minecraft menu and search for "Original Bed Wars". Once you find it, you can buy it and download it to your device. You can then create a new world using the Bed Wars map and invite your friends to join you.
The official Bed Wars map supports up to 16 players in four teams of four. It also has a lobby where you can choose your team color, select your kit, and customize your settings. The map also has a shop where you can buy items using iron, gold, emerald, or diamond resources that you collect from generators on your island or in the middle. The items include blocks, weapons, armor, tools, potions, traps, utilities, and special items.
How to join and play Bed Wars on Minecraft servers
If you don't want to buy the official Bed Wars map or you want to try different versions of Bed Wars, you can join one of the many Bed Wars servers that are available online. These servers are hosted by other players or communities and have their own rules, features, maps, and plugins. To join a Bed Wars server, you need to know its IP address or domain name.
One way to find Bed Wars servers is to use a server list website like [MinecraftServers.org](^1^) or [PlanetMinecraft.com](^3^). These websites have categories for different game modes like Bed Wars and show information like server name, status, players online, votes, reviews, and more. You can browse through the list of servers and find one that suits your preferences. You can also use filters like country, version, tags, etc. to narrow down your search.
Another way to find Bed Wars servers is to use the server browser in your Minecraft menu. This feature allows you to add servers manually by entering their IP address or domain name. You can also edit or delete servers that you have added before. To use the server browser, you need to go to the Multiplayer menu in your Minecraft game and click on "Add Server". Then, you need to enter a server name (any name you want) and a server address (the IP address or domain name of the server). You can also enter an optional resource pack URL if the server requires one. After that, you need to click on "Done" and the server will be added to your server list. You can then select the server and click on "Join Server" to connect to it.
Once you join a Bed Wars server, you will usually be taken to a lobby where you can choose a game mode, a map, and a team. Some servers may have different options or features, so make sure to read the instructions or signs that are displayed in the lobby. You can also chat with other players or use commands to access menus or settings. When the game starts, you will be teleported to your island and the Bed Wars match will begin.
How to host your own Bed Wars server on Minecraft
If you want to have more control and customization over your Bed Wars experience, you can also host your own Bed Wars server on Minecraft. This way, you can invite your friends or other players to join your server and play Bed Wars with your own rules, maps, and plugins. However, hosting a Minecraft server requires some technical knowledge and resources, so make sure you are prepared before you start.
To host a Bed Wars server on Minecraft, you need to download and run a Minecraft server software that supports Bed Wars. There are different types of server software, such as vanilla, Bukkit, Spigot, Paper, etc. Each one has its own advantages and disadvantages, so you need to do some research and choose the one that suits your needs. For this guide, we will use Paper as an example, as it is one of the most popular and optimized server software for Minecraft.
Paper is a fork of Spigot that offers better performance, stability, and compatibility. You can download Paper from its official website [PaperMC.io] and choose the version that matches your Minecraft game version. You will get a .jar file that you need to save in a folder where you want to run your server. Then, you need to create a .bat file (for Windows) or a .sh file (for Linux or Mac) in the same folder with the following content:
java -Xms1G -Xmx2G -jar paper-1.17.1.jar nogui
This command will run the Paper server with 1 GB of minimum memory and 2 GB of maximum memory. You can adjust these values according to your available RAM. The nogui option will disable the graphical user interface and run the server in the console. You can also add other options or arguments if you want.
After creating the .bat or .sh file, you need to double-click on it to start the server. The first time you run the server, it will generate some files and folders in your server folder, such as eula.txt, server.properties, plugins, etc. You need to open the eula.txt file and change the value of eula from false to true. This means that you agree to the Minecraft End User License Agreement and can run the server legally.
Then, you need to restart the server by closing the console window and double-clicking on the .bat or .sh file again. The server will now start and load the default world. You can use commands in the console window or in the game chat (by typing / before the command) to manage your server. For example, you can use /op to give yourself operator privileges, /stop to stop the server gracefully, /help to see a list of available commands, etc.
To install Bed Wars on your Paper server, you need to download a Bed Wars plugin from a plugin repository website like [SpigotMC.org] or [Bukkit.org]. There are different Bed Wars plugins that have different features and requirements, so make sure to read the description and reviews before downloading one. For this guide, we will use BedWars1058 as an example, as it is one of the most popular and updated Bed Wars plugins for Paper.
BedWars1058 is a plugin that allows you to create and play Bed Wars games on your Paper server with up to 24 players in six teams of four. It has many features such as custom maps, kits, shop items, upgrades, statistics, leaderboards, etc. You can download BedWars1058 from its Spigot page [here] and save the .jar file in your plugins folder in your server folder.
After downloading the plugin, you need to restart your server for it to load properly. Then, you need to configure the plugin by editing its files in the plugins/BedWars1058 folder in your server folder. You can use a text editor like Notepad++ or Sublime Text to open and edit these files. The most important files are config.yml and shop.yml , where you can set the general settings and the shop items for your Bed Wars games. You can also edit other files like messages.yml, scoreboard.yml, sounds.yml, etc. to customize other aspects of the plugin. You can find more information and documentation about the plugin on its wiki page [here].
After configuring the plugin, you need to create a Bed Wars arena by using commands in the game chat. You need to be an operator or have the bedwars.admin permission to use these commands. The basic steps to create a Bed Wars arena are as follows:
Use /bw addarena to create a new arena with a name of your choice.
Use /bw setlobby to set the lobby location for the arena where players will wait before the game starts.
Use /bw setworld to set the world where the arena is located. You can use any world that is loaded on your server, such as the default world or a custom world.
Use /bw addteam to add a team to the arena with a name, a color, and a maximum number of players. You can add up to six teams per arena.
Use /bw setspawn to set the spawn location for each team where players will spawn on their island.
Use /bw setbed to set the bed location for each team where players will place their bed.
Use /bw addgenerator to add a resource generator to the arena with a type (iron, gold, emerald, or diamond) and a tier (1, 2, or 3). You can add as many generators as you want on your island or in the middle.
Use /bw savearena to save the arena and make it ready for playing.
You can also use other commands like /bw setminplayers, /bw setmaxplayers, /bw setgametime, etc. to change other settings for your arena. You can use /bw help to see a list of all available commands and their usage.
To start a Bed Wars game on your arena, you need to use /bw start . This will teleport all online players to the lobby and start a countdown. When the countdown ends, the game will begin and players will be teleported to their islands. To stop a Bed Wars game on your arena, you need to use /bw stop . This will end the game and teleport all players back to the lobby.
