Raknetify2

Raknetify2 uses RakNet over UDP for Minecraft multiplayer. It separates traffic into ordering channels so that packet loss on one channel can leave unrelated traffic flowing. This can keep interactions responsive while the connection is recovering missing data or transferring chunks.

Raknetify2 is an independently maintained fork of Raknetify, originally developed by ishland. The fork adds support for newer Minecraft versions and maintains the transport, platform integrations, and compatibility tests.

Get started

  1. Check Minecraft and mod compatibility.
  2. Choose a download and install it.
  3. Connect with an address such as raknet;play.example.com.

Server guides

Mod authors can use the packet ordering interface to declare dependencies between custom payloads and Minecraft traffic.
