How to join
Vanilla 1.8 clients work as-is. The mod set is optional and adds inventory, zoom and interface quality-of-life features.
- Launch Minecraft 1.8.8 (or 1.8.9) with a premium account. The server runs
online-mode=true, so cracked clients are refused. - Add the server with the address
livedaw.store. The SRV record points clients at port 25565; no port needs typing. - Optional: install the TokyoNocturn client set on a separate 1.21.11 Fabric profile. It does not change the server version you connect with.
Minecraft's own server list resolves livedaw.store through _minecraft._tcp. If a client ignores SRV records, connect to livedaw.store:25565 instead.
The server
Tuned for 50 players at view-distance 6, with an anti-cheat that models vanilla 1.8 movement instead of guessing at thresholds.
DawGuard
Predictive movement checks: speed, fly, timer, reach, killaura, autoclicker, fastbreak and scaffold.
Vanilla-compatible
No client mods required. Optifine and PvP texture packs are fine; the server never asks you to install anything.
Dallas, TX
Hosted on dedicated hardware with a direct TCP 25565 forward and DNS-only records for Minecraft.
