How to set up Java and Bedrock crossplay¶

To let Bedrock players join a Java server, use Geyser. If you want Bedrock players to join without a premium Java account, add Floodgate as well.

What you need¶

• A Paper or Purpur server
• One additional UDP port for Bedrock
• The Geyser plugin and, if needed, Floodgate

Quick steps¶

1. Upload Geyser-Spigot.jar to the plugins folder.
2. Upload Floodgate-Spigot.jar if you need it.
3. Restart the server.
4. Set the Bedrock port in plugins/Geyser-Spigot/config.yml.
5. Restart the server again.

Important configuration¶

Make sure:

• bedrock.port uses the additional Bedrock port
• remote.port uses the main Java port
• auth-type matches the mode you are using, for example floodgate if Floodgate is installed

Notes¶

• If you need the NexusCloud team to set up the server for you, include the Server ID and explain your needs when you open a ticket.
