MCServer [![Build Status](http://img.shields.io/travis/mc-server/MCServer.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/mc-server/MCServer) [![Coverity Scan Build Status](https://scan.coverity.com/projects/1930/badge.svg)](https://scan.coverity.com/projects/1930) [![tip for next commit](http://tip4commit.com/projects/74.svg)](http://tip4commit.com/projects/74) ======== MCServer is a Minecraft server that is written in C++ and designed to be efficient with memory and CPU, as well as having a flexible Lua Plugin API. MCServer can run on Windows, *nix and Android operating systems. This includes Android phones and tablets as well as Raspberry Pis. We currently support Release 1.7 and 1.8 (not beta) Minecraft protocol versions. Installation ------------ For Linux there is an easy installation method, just run this in your terminal: curl -s https://raw.github.com/mc-server/MCServer/master/easyinstall.sh | sh For Windows, you just need to download a file and extract it: - [Windows 32 bit](http://builds.cuberite.org/job/MCServer%20Windows%20x86/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/Install/MCServer.zip) - [Windows 64 bit](http://builds.cuberite.org/job/MCServer%20Windows%20x64/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/Install/MCServer.zip) For other operating systems you need to download and compile yourself. There is also an archive of binary builds on the buildserver: http://builds.cuberite.org Compiling the server yourself has other benefits: you may get better performance performance (1.5-3x as fast) and it supports more operating systems.
