I'm a server noob but I want to make a HG type server. I already have files. But I want to make it worldwide without hamachi. Help?

if you need to run your server worldwide without hamachi, you can try
dyndns or buy 24/7 server from good hosting provider

For some reason I can't pm so here is what you need to do:
1. download the server .exe from minecraft.net (assuming you use a windows PC)
2. create a folder and place the .exe in there.
3.Go to this site http://bukkit.org/ and download the latest recommended build of craftbukkit. (I would wait until after the update)
4. create a text file and depending on what java you have (32-bit or 64-bit) write:
for 32-bit:
@ECHO OFF
SET BINDIR=%~dp0
CD /D "%BINDIR%"
"%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar
PAUSE
for 64-bit:
@ECHO OFF
SET BINDIR=%~dp0
CD /D "%BINDIR%"
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar
PAUSE
5. Place both craftbukkit and the text file in the server folder
6. Rename the text file run.bat
7. double click it
The rest is dependent on what plugins you have but I would be glad to help.
If you need any clearing up just tell me

I made a server for free using bukkit only problem is that the ip changes depending on the ip of the computer you run it on. If you would still want to set it up like that pm me.
Will it cost money?
It can be worldwide using port forwarding, but still, if you want to have a public server, don't make one. Buy a good 24/7 one from a server hosting site
