About this video: In this video, you will learn exactly how to make a Forge Minecraft server in 2026. We go over the complete step-by-step process for setting up a Forge server so you can play modded Minecraft with your friends.

The first step is downloading the Forge installer from the official Forge website. Simply choose your desired Minecraft version, download the installer, create a dedicated server folder, and run the server install. Once the essential files are in place, you run the server via the run.bat file, accept the Minecraft EULA by editing the eula.txt file, and adjust your RAM allocation through the user_jvm_args.txt file.

To install mods, simply drop them into the mods folder, but keep in mind that all players must have the same mods installed on their client side too. Once the server is running locally, you can connect using "localhost" as the server address.

To make the server accessible to friends outside your local network, you'll need to forward port 25565. The easiest way to do this is through portforward.com. Once the port is open, share your public IP with trusted friends and they'll be able to connect from anywhere in the world.

If self-hosting, port forwarding, and keeping your PC on 24/7 sounds like too much hassle, you can use WiseHosting to get a Forge server running in minutes, no technical setup required.
