(OUTDATED) How to set up authentication for players on BetaCraft

OUTDATED!

BetaCraft V1 heartbeat has been nonfunctional for a long while and will be sunset on October 1st 2024. You can view the new instructions for setting up the heartbeat here. You however still have to configure the auth service for ClassiCube to avoid username conflicts.

 

This tutorial shows you how to set up a server running MCGalaxy 1.9.3.5+ to allow players to connect from BetaCraft, or other services.

Step 1. Open up server.properties inside the properties folder, and under "Other settings" you should find a variable called "HeartbeatURL".

Step 2. Change HeartbeatURL to

http://www.classicube.net/heartbeat.jsp,https://betacraft.uk/heartbeat.jsp

After doing that, the following area should look like this.

Step 3. Save the file, and do /server reload to generate the necessary configuration.

Step 4 (MCGalaxy 1.9.3.6+). Open up authservices.properties inside the properties folder, and look for a line that says

URL = http://www.classicube.net/heartbeat.jsp

Under it change

name-suffix =

to

name-suffix = +

And under

URL = https://betacraft.uk/heartbeat.jsp

change

skin-prefix = 

to

skin-prefix = https://minotar.net/skin/

(MCGalaxy 1.9.4.8+) along side changing

mojang-auth = false

to

mojang-auth = true

The file should now look like this.

Doing these changes allows the server to know and properly store player info for each player on each authentication service, and allows ClassiCube players to see Minecraft player skins.

Step 5. Save the file and do /server reload, and wait for a while.

Step 6. Check both of the server lists if your server is listed.

Step 7. Join the server using the same username on both BetaCraft and ClassiCube to see if everything works.

This looks like a BetaCraft issue, not something anyone from ClassiCube can help you with. You will need to join their Discord for help

That's because they put the server up before the script kiddies ruined the server list, and due to that they froze the server list. You'll either have to wait until it unfreezes or until Betacraft V2 is out.

Ok, very useful guide. Thank you for writing this

Where can i find the server.properties folder?

The V1 server list is static. I will have to write a new guide once the V2 server list API has been finalized alongside the release of MCGalaxy 1.9.5.0.
