About FriendlySMP

FriendlySMP is a survival network built around relaxed play and respectful communities. Its main semi-vanilla world adds homes, teleport requests, player shops, teams, public warps, and a diamond-based economy without turning survival into a massive minigame hub.

Players can also choose a purer vanilla world, a OneBlock island mode, or a Java-only Homestead modded server. The network suits players who want familiar Minecraft with just enough help for travel, trading, protection, and social play.

What Makes It Different

FriendlySMP gives players both a long-term semi-vanilla world and a regularly refreshed pure-vanilla world. That makes it easy to choose between lasting builds and fresh seasonal survival.

Its combat is deliberately social. Players turn PvP on themselves, so fights can happen without making every trip outside spawn dangerous.

FriendlySMP Gameplay

The semi-vanilla server adds /home, /tpa, random teleport, public warps, chest protection, a marketplace, parkour, duels, and small minigames.

Players can join public towns, build private bases, visit community projects, use the world map, and switch between FriendlySMP servers with /servers.

The pure vanilla server removes most convenience commands. It keeps survival close to the normal Minecraft experience.

History of FriendlySMP

FriendlySMP began development on June 18, 2024. The first setup included the server files, basic survival plugins, the FriendlySMP.com domain, a spawn build, and a custom Discord whitelist bot.

During the pre-release period, the network added one-player sleep, proximity voice chat, a planned Dynmap, a PvP arena, optional PvP, and early versions of its permissions and trading systems. These changes shaped the relaxed survival style that still defines the network.

The Beta 1.0 launch followed on June 23, 2024. Early updates focused on fixing food and mob issues, improving the world border and random teleport system, adding chest and door locks, restoring the map, and tuning server performance.

A larger Beta update on June 27 added stronger anti-cheat, expanded hardware resources, chunk preloading, automatic restarts, faster leaf decay, and improved farm performance. These changes helped the original survival world support a broader set of community builds and public services.

FriendlySMP's official launch came on July 7, 2024. The End opened, the Overworld and End borders grew, a public trading centre and farms were planned, the map returned, and Helper and Moderator roles were added.

The network later developed into several connected choices instead of one survival world. By January 2026, it was promoting a new 1.21.11 semi-vanilla update, the fourth season of its pure vanilla server, a OneBlock mode, and a Homestead modded server.

Today, FriendlySMP combines long-term semi-vanilla survival with seasonal vanilla play, island progression, and a separate modded experience. Its identity remains centred on building, trading, shared towns, optional combat, and community events.
