Follow the below steps to get your Minecraft client set up to connect to the server.

Have Minecraft installed via the official launcher.

Download and launch Minecraft NeoForge for 1.21.1 (you will need Java installed).

Install the client in your Minecraft directory. These should be the default options, just press Proceed.

Open the Minecraft launcher and launch via NeoForge 1.21.209.

Navigate to %appdata%\.minecraft\mods

Extract all of the mods from this .zip into your mods folder.

Restart your Minecraft.

Connect to minecraft.solinra.com and have fun! You should be whitelisted already if you played last year but I don’t have access to the files anymore so I just added from memory. If not, reach out with your username.

If you want a good shader pack, I’d recommend Complementary. Download and run this installer. Make sure you change the version to 1.21.1. The modpack already contains some optimisations for Unbound, so I’d also recommend using that version.

After logging in, you may want to check your keybinds as there are some conflicts in the mods we have, the main ones being opening your backpack/setting waypoints and exiting from Immersive Aircraft/reloading shaders. Otherwise, just change them as you need to. There’s a mod that enables searching in the keybinds menu which should make this easier.

Personally, also I just dislike having the waypoints show up visually on screen in addition to on the map/mini-map. You can change this by going to ESC>Mods>Xaero’s Minimap>Config>Waypoint Settings>In-World Waypoints.

We also have a web map. http://minecraft.solinra.com:8130

The server has a daily reboot at 6am. There is a 60s warning in chat and downtime is usually 2 minutes.

This year, we have a very similar setup to last year in terms of mods. A few got cut, a few got added. See below for a full list.
