Let's you scan the entire internet in a couple of hours and identify all Minecraft servers on IPV4
Installation and running instructions are as follows:
sudo apt install masscan (Or distro specific installer command)
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robertdavidgraham/masscan/master/data/exclude.conf
sudo masscan -p25565 0.0.0.0/0 --max-rate <maxrate> --excludefile exclude.conf -oL masscan.txt (Set maxrate to a limit that you are comfortable with and won't melt your router)
pip3 install mcstatus
python3 mcscanner.py
- Now answer the questions of files and specifics that the program asks you (For filtering out public servers you can use my public.txt file but it will probably be a bit outdated by now)
- Hit enter and wait for my program to check and grab the metadata for all the servers found, once this is done you will have a massive amount of servers (A lot of them being private ones) to have some fun with. The output file includes the IP Address, Version and Current Players online of found servers.
