Raspberry Pi 2 Questions

chriscoolzap

Hey, 

        Would the new Raspberry Pi 2 handle a bukkit Minecraft Server for 5-10 players? Also,do you have any favorite Raspberry Pi projects?

Probably not.

 

The best way to set up a dedicated minecraft sever would be to find an old PC, with maybe a core 2 duo or even possibly something worse, make sure it has about 4 gig of ram, and then install linux, and go to town.

The most ive been able to get out of my Pi is a home media server controlled from my phone everything else i tried was a total failure because it was either way to expensive or just flat out didnt work nice enough. Ive heard people using them in home automation alot too.

 

I have an old Pi model B i got last year and that just sucked at minecraft but i never tried running a sever in it so maybe it will?

It will run a basic server. I mean basic.

 

No plugins or anything extravagant.

 

 

but for a couple of people (maybe up to about 10) who just want to play vanilla minecraft together in a living room, its perfect. I used to run a 10 player minecraft server on 1GB of RAM and a 2.8GHz Pentium 4. crashed like every couple of hours, but it worked.
