Tutorials/Hide Multiplayer Server IP

Are you worried about people seeing your SMP server IP while you are recording/streaming? Watch the video below, it will teach you how to hide your server IP's without any mods:

In this tutorial you edit your hosts file to add a hostname to an ipaddress. This allows you to record a video with no ipaddress showing and no one is able to look it up unless they have your hosts file. In windows the hosts file is located "%systemroot%\system32\drivers\ect\hosts"

Add an ipaddress like this "127.0.0.2&lt;TAB&gt;coolserver"be sure to acutally use the tab character, do not simply type &lt;TAB&gt; Replace 127.0.0.2 with the numeric ipaddress of your server.

Replace coolserver with any name you want; no spaces

Additionally since the 1.3.2 update the F1 key will toggle showing server addresses in the server list.
