Tiny answers to big questions.
Launcher? Claims? Homes? Very cute ducks? The important answers live here without any mysterious marketing fog.
Does BambiSMP have paid ranks or paywalls?
No. There are no paid ranks, entry fees or gameplay advantages for sale.
How do I join?
Download the BambiSMP launcher for your computer, sign in with your Minecraft account, then press play. It handles the Forge 1.20.1 setup and the mod list for you.
Which version do I need?
The server runs Forge 1.20.1. Use the BambiSMP launcher instead of building your own mod folder; it keeps everything matched.
Can I join from Bedrock or a phone?
Not at the moment. This is a Java Edition Forge modded server, so the launcher is for Windows and macOS computers.
How do claims work now?
BambiSMP uses Open Parties & Claims. Claim land from the map or the claims screen, then choose exactly who can build there. The Wiki has a calm little walkthrough.
Do we have homes?
Yes. FTB Essentials provides homes and teleports. Use /sethome name to save a spot and /home name when you want to return.
What kind of mods are there?
Cute animals, frog villagers, ducks, better dogs, flowers, furniture, cooking, storage, exploration structures and plenty of small cozy details.
Will the world reset?
BambiSMP is meant to be a long-term home. Your builds and progress are not here for a quick seasonal goodbye.
Where can I get help?
Ask in the BambiSMP Discord. Weird launcher questions are welcome; that is how most Minecraft troubleshooting begins.
