Community game servers: Minecraft, Vintage Story and now BeamMP

The Sesh Shed runs three game servers for members: Minecraft Bedrock for PC, console and phone, Vintage Story, and a new BeamMP server for BeamNG.drive with scenarios, shared traffic and chat votes. Link your Discord once on seshbots.com/play and you are in.

Since the end of October The Sesh Shed has had its own game servers, run on two dedicated boxes and tied to the Discord. Membership is the whitelist: every server checks your Discord link at the door, and nobody ever sees a server address. This week the third one went live.

Six stat tiles: 3 games; 2 dedicated boxes; 8 BeamMP scenarios; 20 BeamMP mods on the box; 1 login that matters; nightly backup at 04:30.
The servers, by the numbers.

BeamMP for BeamNG.drive, new this week

  • Scenarios. A scenario is a map, its mods, car limits and rules in one pick: three off-road maps, three open-world cruises, a track day and a derby to start. Switch from the panel, or !vote N in chat and the majority wins.

  • Shared AI traffic, up to twelve cars, split across the players on the server.

  • A schedule that rotates scenarios on a timer and warns the server a minute before.

  • Chat commands: !rules, !scenarios, !vote N, !traffic, !stats, !help.

  • Mods download once. The launcher caches server mods, so your first join of a scenario is the only slow one. Scenario mod sets are kept small for that reason.

  • The server is unlisted on purpose: members Direct Connect to the address shown on /play after linking.

Read the guide first

seshbots.com/play/rules has the BeamMP guide: the launcher, Direct Connect, what each scenario contains and which mods it uses. Client-side UI mods are not pushed by the server, so bring your own camera and HUD mods.

Minecraft and Vintage Story

  • Minecraft is Bedrock-first: PC, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, Android and iPhone all join the same world (Java Paper under the hood with Geyser on top). Towns, random spawns, homes, teleports and a live map.

  • Vintage Story 1.22, sixteen players, the whitelist managed by the link.

  • Consoles join by setting the console's DNS to the address on /play, then adding the server.

Four steps: join the Discord, sign in on /play, get a code, link then play; and a list of this week's BeamMP features.
The gate is the same for every game.

How to get in

  • Join The Sesh Shed on Discord. Membership is the whitelist.

  • Sign in with Discord on seshbots.com/play. The page shows every server, its status, who is on, and the connect details once you are linked.

  • Try to join the game once. The server hands you a six-character code.

  • Enter the code on seshbots.com/play/link. From then on you walk straight in.

Behind the scenes

Each box runs a small agent that handles the gate, links, bans, sessions, metrics, console, backups and a mod store, and an admin panel on the site drives all of it: live analytics, a colour console, plugin and mod installs with update checks, config editors, the gate log, and for BeamMP the scenarios, votes, schedule, traffic and Discord announcements. Worlds, configs and the database are backed up nightly at 04:30, encrypted, to a second box.

It is free

No ranks for sale, no pay-to-win. The servers are paid for out of pocket by the person who runs them. If you want to help keep them up, seshbots.com/donate is there, and it is never required.
