How to Install Valhelsia 3 Manually to your Minecraft Server

If you fancy installing the Valhelsia 3 modpack manually, I’m not sure why considering our excellent one-click mod installer mentioned above… or you’re running one of the Iceline Hosting Game VPS plans then see this section below!

1. To start, you’ll want to head over to the official CurseForge page for Valhelsia 3 and navigate to the ‘Files’ tab pictured below. This is where we’ll be downloading the server file pack for Valhelsia 3.

2. Once there, you’ll want to scroll down to the additional files section and download the the ‘Valhelsia 3 – SERVER’ pack as seen in the image below.

3. After you’ve downloaded the Minecraft server files for Valhelsia 3, you will need to create a folder on your computer and extract the server pack there. Don’t worry about naming the folder anything special, we just need to run the forge installation included with this modpack first.
4. As seen in the image below, you’ll want to start by selecting the ‘forge-installer.jar’ and running it. This will then present you with the Forge Mod system installer. There’s a few options listed, but the one we want to select is Install Server and for the directory, choose the same folder we created earlier when extracting the server pack.

5. Select the ‘OK’ button and the Forge Server client will be installed to your server.
6. You’ll notice a few more directories and files appears, however, the one we want to focus on is the newly generated forge.jar (highlighted in the image below).

7. With the highlighted Minecraft Forge.jar, simply rename this to ‘server’. It’s unlikely that you’ll need to add .JAR on the end as this may cause your file to work as Forge.jar.jar which would cause issues when trying to run your server.

We’ve done the longest part, now all that’s pretty much left to do is to upload these files to the Iceline Hosting Game Panel on your server. The best method for doing this, is through an FTP application such as FileZilla. Your FTP credentials can be located via the ‘Settings’ tab of the Iceline Hosting Game Panel, however, if you’re unsure or haven’t used FTP before, see our short knowledgebase article covering this.

7. Once you’ve successfully connected to your Iceline Hosting Minecraft Server via FTP, simply drag and drop the entire directory onto your server like below.

Once all of your files have been uploaded, if you were to navigate back to the Iceline Hosting Game Panel it should look almost exactly like the below. As mentioned before, please ensure that your server.jar file isn’t being displayed as server.jar.jar.

8. That’s it! Now that you’ve uploaded your files, all that’s left to do is install Valhelsia 3 to your own computer via the CurseForge desktop application (mentioned in step 4 at the top of this page), start your server, agree to the Minecraft EULA Terms dialogue and you’re good to go.

Now that your Minecraft server is up and running, you’ll likely want to configure a server whitelist to prevent any unauthorized players from joining and ruining your beautiful creations! Setting yourself as an admin/op is also a great idea so you’re able to perform tasks such as kick/ban/mute if you encounter any issues with volatile players.

Facing any issues?

As mentioned previously in this article, if you’re having issues with your server starting, it’s likely that we need to adjust the version of Java that your Iceline Hosting Minecraft Server is running.
