Our Minecraft server is invite-only. There is no password to lose and no address to attack — you join a small private network with your Google account, and only invited people can reach it. Do this once; it is automatic ever after.
Get the game, install one app, paste one line, play.
After that you skip straight to the last step.
You sign in with the Google account you already have.
Invite-only, but there is no seat limit on the guest list.
Install the CurseForge app, search All The Mods 10, install it, and launch it once to be sure it opens. PC / Java only.
Download from tailscale.com/download. On a Mac, use that website — not the App Store version, which cannot reach a private server.
Open PowerShell (Windows) or Terminal (Mac), paste the line opposite, press enter, and sign in with your Google account.
In All The Mods 10, choose Multiplayer, add the server address opposite, and join. See you inside.
Use this line — do not click the Tailscale app's own "Sign in" button, which joins the wrong network. Already had Tailscale installed? Add --force-reauth to the end of the line.
If your launcher will not take the name, use 100.64.0.1 instead. Not on the guest list yet? Send the host the Google email you tried to sign in with, and they will wave you through.
You are not on the list yet. Send the host the exact Google email you used, then run the step-three line again.
Tailscale is not finished installing, or the window opened first. Close it, finish the install, reopen, paste again.
Check the Tailscale app shows connected. If not, run the line again. Then try the address 100.64.0.1.
You likely joined regular Tailscale, not ours. Re-run the step-three line (add --force-reauth if it complains), and sign in with the Google email the host allowlisted.
No — only the first time. Keep Tailscale running and it reconnects on its own. After that, jump straight to step four.
