We've started developing on the Minecraft plugin, it'll be released open source with the following features:
1. It will use the API to get the real IP of the connecting player instead of showing the proxy IP.,
2. It will manage the ban system so that IP bans are sent over the API for the real player IP instead of the proxy IP, this includes any plugins/mods that use the built-in ban system within MC.
We're working on bringing up a new edge location. If you can guess what it is, I'll give you a virtual high five.
Johor/Singapore 👋
We already have this location!
Keep the guess coming!
A couple of fixes today and two cool things I want to share (either later today or this weekend)
All of these improvements were the result of user feedback and real world usage. So THANK YOU to everyone helping make this platform better!
Improvements:
Fixed an issue where editing a server would break forwarding engine connectivity.
Fixed an issue where banned IPs didn't properly sync across all PoPs.
Cool to see this, i gave up on minecraft few years ago, we have built some crazy performant stuff (1.12 i think?) Some minigames, bunch of systems and things
Should maybe maybe make some builds public, its only few mb per server anyways
It always feels good to contribute free stuff.
A new PoP has been added in Sydney! We're bring your Minecraft servers closer than ever to your players. Keep your eyes peeled for more PoPs and an MC plugin coming soon.
Some backend fixes are in place. Just a quick thank you to those of you using LaunchMC to proxy your MC traffic. We're seeing consistent growth on the platform (metrics have only been in place for the last week or so).
Deployed an update to player count metrics for LaunchMC to fix inaccuracies. Hoping to get a beta plugin for Spigot/Paper servers in the next few days.
WE NEED YOUR HELP! We have an addon ready that shows the real connecting IP and fixes in-game banning. It needs testing before we release it public. Please create a ticket in the #open-ticket channel ( https://discord.launchmc.com) and we'll send you all the details.
OK guys. Now that LaunchMC is ready and being used, we're going to start pumping tons more traffic through it. We have a bunch of awesome contests we're gearing up to launch!
Is there anything you'd like to see for prizes?
Great service. I haven't tried v2. Will definitely do.
As November approaches, Minecraft 2 week phase of many folks will also arrive with it. Hope you are ready for the influx.
How does a free server for a year sound?

Sadly this giveaway is directed towards people who has large minecraft traffic.
not for small smps like mine. also no pop in India so not really viable on that front either for me.
good luck to those who participate i guess.
Also would really appreciate custom domain support.
What counts as "regular traffic"?
This giveaway is meant for EVERYONE. Winners are chosen at random, it's not based on how much traffic you receive.
We'll work on adding a PoP in India this week.
Custom domain support is already available:
1. Widget (recommended) - https://docs.launchmc.com
2. SRV Records (not recommended)
Our system tracks historical data (you have graphs available in the panel). It's pretty easy to see in trends when someone pushed traffic temporarily and then eased off.
Bedrock support imminent. Stay tuned!
Do you not have IPs posted? Other providers have IPs posted or the very least a plugin to block any traffic not from the trusted proxy. Right now you have to just open the firewall to anyone allow people to just scrap the internet until they find your server. And yes people do that. There bots going all the time and even people found Hipixel servers firewall not configured on a few servers years ago, allowing them to just bypass the proxy.
The IPs are posted on the connection page. We're actively adding PoPs though. We can have it via an API call if that's good for you, or over a text file that can be downloaded.
Huh, must of missed it.
Api is nice, but a page with just the ips is also nice. Can easily create a script to download it and whitelist the ips. Example of cloudflare.

We're excited to announce the Bedrock support is now live! You can now configure the bedrock port in the panel alongside your regular TCP port. Having issues? open-ticket or bug-report
