Joining The Server

• Make sure you are on 1.21.10. You can play with both vanilla & modded clients, but only client-side mods will load. Server-side mods will simply be ignored.
• The server is running on Minecraft Java Edition, however Bedrock players can also join thanks to the GeyserMC plugin.
• If you are on Java, you'll connect via Multiplayer → Direct Connect or Add Server, using the address play.bcr-mc.xyz. If you are on Bedrock, see below - you will only have to do this once!

Connecting on Bedrock (Switch)
^{(Summarized from this article.)}

1. Open the System Settings by selecting the gear icon on the home screen, and scroll down to the Internet section.
2. Select Internet Settings, select the network you are connected to (there should be a checkmark to the right of it), and select Change Settings.
3. Change DNS Settings to Manual, then set your Primary DNS to 104.238.130.180*, and set your Secondary DNS to 1.1.1.1.
4. Select Save, and open Minecraft.
5. At the title screen, choose Play, followed by the Servers tab.
6. Select anything from the Featured Servers list, and then Join Server.
7. A new menu will appear - select Connect to a Server. From here, you'll continue from Step 3 of the "Other Bedrock users" section below — make sure that the Add to server list toggle is flipped ON (it should look green) so that you don't have to do this each time.
*You can alternatively try 173.82.100.84 or 207.244.229.200 if this address isn't working correctly.

Connecting on Bedrock (Other)

1. Hit Play, then select the Servers tab.
2. Scroll to the bottom of the list, and select Add Server.
3. In the Server Name box, enter whatever you'd like. This will only affect the title of the server for yourself.
4. In the Server Address box, enter play.bcr-mc.xyz.
5. In the Port box, enter the number 19132 if it is not there already.
6. The server will now be available at the bottom of your Servers list, in the future.
