STEP 3:
Click on the network button on the nav bar.

Create a new network and name it whatever you like.
there should be a password.
STEP 5:
Download the server software here:

Place the .exe file into a folder, unless you want it to spam your desktop.
STEP 5:
Run the Server.exe file. When you see the message: DONE!
close the server and go into the same folder as the .exe file.
there will now be a lot of .txt files. im not going to worry about configuring those now.
STEP 6:
Click Server-Properties and open it in notepad or whatever.
go down to server IP and enter the ip address in your hamachi window, which can be found next to your name at the top of the screen.
STEP 7:
run the server.exe file again. it should connect to the hamachi ip properly.
STEP 8:
Go into minecraft and enter in the hamachi ip address, which can be found next to your name at the top of hamachi.
STEP 9: LET THE GAME LOAD!
it will crash the first 1 or 2 times. do not worry.
also it will be extremely laggy for about 2 minutes.
