About this Mod

Overview

BedrockBridge

BedrockBridge is a Fabric mod that lets your Bedrock friends on mobile, console, or Windows 10/11 join your single-player Java world with a single checkbox. No router configuration. No extra software for them.


How it works

When you open your world to LAN with "Share with Bedrock" ticked, BedrockBridge automatically:

  1. Starts Geyser to translate between Java and Bedrock protocols
  2. Starts Floodgate so Bedrock players can join without a Java account
  3. Creates a Playit.gg UDP tunnel that exposes your world to the internet without port-forwarding

A public address like means-confidentiality.gl.at.ply.gg:6740 appears in your chat. Your friend pastes it into Minecraft Bedrock > Servers > Add Server and they are in.

To stop: just close the world or Save and Quit. BedrockBridge shuts everything down automatically.


Quick Start

  1. Download BedrockBridge and drop the .jar into your mods/ folder
  2. Add Fabric API to mods/ as well
  3. Launch Minecraft with the Fabric profile
  4. Load your world > Esc > Open to LAN > tick "Share with Bedrock" > Start LAN World
  5. Copy the address from chat and send it to your friend
  6. They open Bedrock > Servers > Add Server, paste the address, and join

(You can hide the server name with "B" and edit the keybind at any time)

First launch: BedrockBridge downloads Geyser, Floodgate, and the Playit agent automatically (~25 MB total, one time only). You will see a playit.gg/claim/... link in chat -- open it and click "Add Agent" to activate your free tunnel.


Requirements

  • Minecraft Java 1.26.1.2 (alias 26.1.2)
  • Fabric Loader 0.19.2 or newer
  • Java 25 runtimeproject
  • Fabric API

Supported platforms for the internet tunnel:

  • Linux x86_64 and aarch64 (Raspberry Pi 4+, etc.)
  • Windows x86_64
  • macOS: not supported for the tunnel yet (Geyser and Floodgate still work for local LAN)

Troubleshooting

The public address never shows up in chat
Open the Playit claim link from chat and click "Add Agent". The endpoint appears after the tunnel is created.

"Host disconnect" on mobile after a few seconds
You likely have a VPN (Cloudflare WARP, Proton free) running -- those VPNs drop UDP packets. Disable it or test with real mobile data.

Playit API HTTP 401: not authorized
The secret is corrupt. Delete <gameDir>/bedrockbridge/playit.toml and reopen LAN to re-claim.

Want to switch Playit accounts
Delete <gameDir>/bedrockbridge/playit.toml and reopen LAN.

Frequently Asked Questions

BedrockBridge server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (26.1.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is BedrockBridge compatible with fabric?

BedrockBridge officially supports fabric for Minecraft 26.1.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with BedrockBridge – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if BedrockBridge consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
