How to connect to Mineplex
Mineplex is one of the classic Minecraft minigame networks. This guide walks you through connecting your bot.
| Server Address | mineplex.com |
| Version | 1.8.x - 1.21.x |
| Server Type | Minigames network |
Connecting
Authenticate your account
Make sure your Minecraft account is linked through Microsoft.
Enter the server address
Use mineplex.com as the server address. Do not include a port number.
Choose a version
Mineplex supports a wide range of versions. Use auto-detection or set the version to match the game mode you plan to join.
Connect
Click connect. Your bot will join the Mineplex lobby.
Navigating lobbies
Mineplex uses a lobby system with NPC selectors and menus to navigate between game modes. From the web client, you can use chat commands to join specific game modes directly:
/server- View available servers/lobby- Return to the main lobby
AFK on Mineplex
Mineplex lobbies have AFK timeouts. Enable anti-AFK to stay connected. A movement interval of 30-45 seconds is usually sufficient.
Note:Mineplex may apply anti-bot measures. If you are kicked after connecting, try adjusting your anti-AFK interval or version setting.
Tip:Use auto reconnect so your bot automatically rejoins after server maintenance or lobby restarts.
