How to Use Hamachi for Minecraft: A Simple Guide
Last updated
Wondering how to connect with your pals in Minecraft using Hamachi? You’re in luck because that’s exactly what we’re diving into today. Hamachi is a virtual private network (VPN) application that lets you play Minecraft with your friends as if you were all on the same local network, even if you’re miles apart.
So, how does one use Hamachi for Minecraft? It’s easier than you might think, and we’re here to guide you step by step.
Setting Up Hamachi for Minecraft
First things first, everyone playing needs to download and install Hamachi. Once you’ve got Hamachi installed, the host needs to create a new network within the application. Give it a name and a password that you can share with your friends.
Next, with the network created, your friends can join by finding the network’s name in Hamachi and entering the password you’ve provided. It’s as simple as that. Now, you’re all connected as if you were sitting right next to each other, ready to embark on your Minecraft adventures together.
Linking Hamachi and Minecraft
Once everyone’s connected via Hamachi, the host needs to launch their Minecraft game and open their world to LAN. Minecraft will display a port number. This is crucial because the host must share this port number with everyone.
Friends can then launch their Minecraft, select ‘Multiplayer’, and choose ‘Direct Connect’. They’ll enter the host’s Hamachi IP address followed by a colon and the port number. Hit ‘Join Server’, and voilà, you’re all together in the same Minecraft world, ready to build, explore, and create.
