NovetusIndex – How to Host

If your server is not reachable by us, we will show "🔴" next to your server.
If your server hasn't been delisted yet and it's been offline for over 1 hour, a delete button will appear publicly next to your server.

Use the latest stable or snapshot version of Novetus.
Some custom Novetus launchers might not work with NovetusIndex, if it doesn't work, use official launcher.

Host using your public IP.
Fastest method, but exposes your public IP.

Before we start, you need to either use UPnP (if your Wi-Fi router supports it) or Port Forward. There are many tutorials online on how to port forward — search for one for your router.

1. Open Novetus, choose client and a map
2. Go to the Host tab
3. Type in the port you want to host on
4. Type a server name (for example: Home Of Robloxia)
5. Put NovetusIndex.com in the “Browser Master Server” box
6. Click Start Server

Now your server should appear on the NovetusIndex server list!
Join your server through the list to test if you port forwarded correctly.

This tunnels your server through our network before reaching players.
Doesn't need UPnP or Port Forwarding!
