XBox One Server Issue #122

Open ecielam opened 3 years ago

ecielam commented 3 years ago

I don't know if this is an XBox One issue, or a phantom issue, but when I kick on phantom to point at an external server, none of our XBoxes can see it. The 'Add Server' button isn't even present, which makes me wonder if this is an XBox One problem, but I figured I'd ask here. XBox One is on the latest version of Minecraft.

Did you try your phone or the windows 10 version to test its connectivity to the server?

The add server button isn't available in any console version.

Hello

The reason this project exists is that the add server button does not exist on Xbox and Playstation. What this project does is connect to the external server on behalf of the console making it appear on your local network.

Servers on the local network appear on the consoles at the bottom of the "Friends" tab in a section called "LAN Games". This support exists so that console players can join worlds hosted by Windows PC's on the same network, luckily it also works for privately hosted servers + phantom.
