Minecraft on Raspberry Pi

After a few attempts I was able to install a Minecraft server on one of my Raspberry Pi. I don’t want to sugarcoat it but it wasn’t too difficult thanks to this shell script from kraftyhosting.eu. Thanks KM_James!

The initial minecraft tests were decent and I was able to have others log in from remote locations using a static IP address with port-forwarding. It’s not entirely secure yet but that will be the next step along with installing some plugins into the craftbukkit installation.

Next project, getting Processing running on the Raspberry Pi. Any takers?

    Could you please tell me how you set up a static IP address on the Raspberry Pi? I’ve been trying to do that for ages and I just can’t get it to work.

    Thanks so much!

    It’s simply a case of understanding the difference between your external IP address (that’s the one that your service provider assigns to your router) and the internal one (the IP address that your raspberry pi gets from your router (usually the one starting with 192.168.1….)

    This link helped me out a lot.
