This is a comprehensive list (with links) of everything you'll need to play on our Minecraft Server.
You will need to acquire Prism Launcher. We use this to make the process 10ish clicks instead of 500. Steam Deck Instructions
Switch over to desktop mode in your steam deck. Click the shopping bag icon to open "Discover". Update anything that needs to be updated. Search up "Prism" in the search bar. Install PrismLauncher. The standard minecraft linux installer by Microsoft doesn't work on the deck because the filesystem is immutable.
Computer Instructions
Simply download Prism Launcher from their website.
If you don't know how to download a program for your platform, you are beyond instruction.
Press "Launch". Then choose American English. Your theme doesn't matter. Add your microsoft account. This will involve going to http://microsoft.com/link and entering in the code. And all the other 2FA awfulness. Once you've done this, it should have your username in the top right. On the top left press add instance. On the following menu, in the left sidebar, select "Import"
Download and import this zip
You should see a new MC CIDPack 2025 instance with a recognizable smile of unabashed wholesomeness. Double click on it to install everything for the first time and wait for it to launch.
Steam Deck (Adding to Steam)
Once everything is in working order, go to your steam library in desktop mode and add a non steam game, and select PrismLauncher. Right click and go to Properties, and then at the end of launch commands add -l "PrismCIDP" (that's an L). Return to gaming mode and everything should be good. In settings you probably want to set it to fullscreen. You can also install shaders by enabling the oculus mod in the instance settings and.. doing stuff. It's probably best to configure the controls using steam input (the way you usually do it on deck) since it's a little more flexible than the Controllable mod's settings page.
Open Minecraft. Click Multiplayer. Press Add Server, and enter this: 147.185.221.27:32173 If the HOST has you whitelisted, you should connect. It may be very stuttery as Distant Horizons caches all the chunks for the first time.
