Question

How do I play on the server you just made?

Community Answer

Open tekkit. Click multiplayer. Go to "add server." Enter the numbers you copied. Click "connect." To avoid lag, do not use the same computer to play as you are using for hosting.

Question

How do I set the server to run on a world I have already created?

Community Answer

There should be a file named "World." You need to delete it, drag in the world you want to use, and rename it to "World."

Question

What is the IP if I'm not using Hamachi?

Community Answer

You'll have to do some port forwarding. To find your computer's IP address, open your command prompt, type in "ipconfig /all" and it'll show you a bunch of stuff, it should be near the top.

Question

What do I do if my Tekkit server isn't showing up when I type in both my IP and local IP address?

Community Answer

That most likely means the server isn't running. Check to make sure there were no errors when starting it.

Question

What do I do if I put up my Tekkit server but no one can connect to it?

Community Answer

If you are the only one who can connect, that means that your firewall is blocking your friends, you can just turn off your firewall or allowing your port.
