How to join?

Welcome to the community! To protect our server and ensure everyone has the best experience, we are a whitelisted server running the Cobblemon mod.

Follow these simple steps to get set up, catch your starter, and join the adventure.

Step 1: Get Whitelisted

Before you can connect to the server, you need to be approved by our staff.

  1. Join our official Discord server: discord.midnightsnacksurvival.com
  2. Navigate to the whitelist application channel and follow the instructions pinned there.
  3. Once a staff member approves you, you are ready to set up your game!

Step 2: Install Cobblemon

Our server currently runs on Cobblemon version 1.7.3. You cannot join with a vanilla Minecraft client. Choose one of the two methods below to install the mod.

Method A: The Modrinth App

We highly recommend using the Modrinth launcher, as it automatically handles the correct Minecraft version and mod dependencies (like Fabric/Forge and the Kotlin library).

  1. Download and install the Modrinth App from their official website.
  2. Search for “Cobblemon” in the app.
  3. Select Version 1.7.3 and click “Install.”
  4. Click “Play” on your new Cobblemon profile!

Method B: Manual Installation

If you prefer to use the default Minecraft launcher or another client:

  1. Install your preferred mod loader (Fabric or Forge) for the matching Minecraft version 1.21.1
  2. Download Cobblemon 1.7.3 from the official Modrinth or CurseForge page.
  3. Download the required dependencies (e.g., Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin if you are using Fabric).
  4. Drop the .jar files into your .minecraft/mods folder.

Step 3: Add Recommended Mods

While Cobblemon is the only required mod, we highly recommend adding a few client-side mods to improve your performance and gameplay:

  • Performance: Sodium (for Fabric) or Rubidium (for Forge) to drastically improve your FPS.
  • Navigation: Xaero’s Minimap or JourneyMap.
  • Utility: Just Enough Items (JEI) or Roughly Enough Items (REI) so you can easily look up crafting recipes for Pokéballs and healing items.
  • Building: Litematica (Ghost mode only).

Step 4: Join the Server!

Once you are whitelisted and your game is loaded with Cobblemon 1.7.3, you are ready to play.

  • Server IP: mc.midnightsnacksurvival.com

Go to Multiplayer -> Add Server -> Paste the IP -> Join!
