Enable Offline Mode for Your LAN Server

Access the LAN Menu

Open your single-player world and press Esc to open the pause menu. Select Open to LAN.

Toggle Offline Mode

You'll see the OfflineLAN toggle option in this menu. By default, it's set to ON, which means online-mode remains enabled. To activate offline mode:

1. Click the toggle to switch it to OFF

2. Confirm your LAN server settings

3. Click Start LAN World

What This Does

With the toggle set to OFF, your integrated server will run in offline mode. This means:

  • Players can join without valid Minecraft accounts
  • Player authentication is disabled
  • Anyone on your local network can connect using any username
  • Useful for testing, playing with cracked clients, or LAN parties where not everyone has a premium account

Rejoin Your World

Once your LAN world is active, other players on your network can find and join it through the multiplayer menu. The server will remain offline-mode as long as the toggle stays OFF.
