Questions about this server

What is the IP address for Nightshadesmp?

The address for Nightshadesmp is play.nightshadesmp.net. In Minecraft Java Edition choose Multiplayer, then Add Server, and paste it into the Server Address box.

Is Nightshadesmp online right now?

Yes. Nightshadesmp replied to our ping with 5 players connected. We last reached it at 2026-10-25 06:33 UTC and we re-check every five minutes.

What Minecraft version does Nightshadesmp run?

Nightshadesmp reports Velocity 1.7.2-26.3, which means it accepts clients from 1.7 through 1.26. A server with that kind of range is normally running a proxy that translates between versions.

Can Java and Bedrock players both join Nightshadesmp?

No. Nightshadesmp only answered on Java when we tested it, so Bedrock players cannot use this address. We repeat the test daily and will update this page if that changes.

How many players are on Nightshadesmp?

5 at our last ping. The seven-day average is 7 and the highest we have recorded in that window is 17. The chart further up this page shows how that number moves through the day.

When is the best time to play on Nightshadesmp?

Around 01:00 UTC, when we typically count about 11 players. That is the busiest hour we have measured on Nightshadesmp over the last seven days.

Where is Nightshadesmp hosted?

The address for Nightshadesmp resolves to a machine in United States. Players far from there should expect a longer round trip, which usually shows up as delayed block breaking rather than as a disconnect.

Is Nightshadesmp free to join?

Yes, joining Nightshadesmp costs nothing beyond owning Minecraft. Some servers additionally allow offline-mode accounts and some do not — the server decides that, and we do not resell anything.
