About Installation

Follow these steps to install APVE on your server:

Requirements

Before installation, ensure your server environment meets the following prerequisites:

  • Server Core: Installed Server Core must be Bukkit-Based like Paper, Spigot, Purpur etc and it must be designed to minecraft version newer or equal to 1.20.6. Note: APVE doesn't tested on 26.3 version. Consequently, proper plugin operation on this version or higher is not guaranteed.
  • Java Version: Java 21 or higher.
  • Dependencies: PacketEvents (Spigot version) and Adventure API if your server core doens't have Adventure API included natively. (Like Spigot)

Installation

  1. Download the plugin: Download the latest .jar release of APVE from Modrinth / Hangar / SpigotMC / BuildByBit / Github Repository Beware from unofficial websites!

  2. Install Dependencies: Ensure PacketEvents is placed inside your server's /plugins/ directory.

  3. Add APVE: Place the downloaded apve.jar file into the /plugins/ directory.

  4. Start or Reload the server: Start or restart your server to generate the default configuration files. ```bash # Do not use /reload — this may cause undefined behavior. Full server restart is recommended.
