https://docs.chunkserve.plGuides and tutorials for managing Minecraft servers, including version changes for Paper, Forge, NeoForge, and Fabric; installing plugins like Skin Restorer, Spark, and Dynmap; configuring proxies such as Velocity and BungeeCord; and managing worlds, datapacks, and SFTP transfers via WinSCP.
What's inside ChunkServe
- BungeeCord is one of the oldest and most widely used proxy solutions for Minecraft. It is characterized by high stability and strong community support. It supports plugins specifically designed for BungeeCord, though it offers more limited network traffic control compared to newer alternatives.
Use Velocity as a high-performance Minecraft proxy
Velocity is a modern proxy solution focused on performance and security. It is more optimized than BungeeCord, allowing it to handle more players without a significant increase in resource usage. It provides greater stability and better protection against exploits, although some plugins may require additional configuration for full compatibility.Integrate Minecraft itemshops with Chunkserve
Chunkserve integrates with yShop and SpaceIS to allow Minecraft server owners to create an itemshop. Funds from purchases are automatically added to the user's Chunkserve panel wallet and can be used to pay for Chunkserve services. Note: Funds in the Chunkserve wallet cannot be withdrawn; they are exclusively for paying for Chunkserve services.Use Xcord for high-performance anti-bot proxying
Xcord is a paid, high-performance proxy solution. It is highly optimized for performance and provides strong anti-bot capabilities. It is compatible with both BungeeCord and Velocity. Note that it has fewer available resources and documentation than more popular solutions and may require additional configuration for full compatibility.Change Minecraft and Forge versions on ChunkServe
To change the Minecraft game version or the Forge engine version, you must first stop the server. It is strongly recommended to create a backup of your data before proceeding. Ensure the Forge engine is installed via the Version Manager (Menedżer wersji) before attempting these changes.Run and test the BungeeCord network
Start the proxy server via the server panel. Once running, connect to the proxy address in Minecraft. You can use the/servercommand in-game to view and switch between available servers. Plugins for the proxy should be placed in the BungeeCordpluginsdirectory.Configure yShop.pl integration with Chunkserve
To integrate yShop with Chunkserve, you must generate an API key from the Chunkserve panel and add it as a payment gateway in the yShop dashboard.
- Generate API Key: Go to Settings → API Keys in the Chunkserve panel. Enter a description (e.g., 'yshop') and click Create API Key. Copy the key immediately, as it is only displayed once.
- Add Gateway in yShop: Log in to yshop.pl, go to the Payment Gateways (Bramki płatności) tab, and click Add Gateway (Dodaj bramkę).
- Configure Gateway:
- Select ChunkServe from the list.
- Enter a name for the gateway.
- Paste the API key generated from Chunkserve.
- Click Add (Dodaj).
Apply version changes to the server
After saving the changes in thevariables.txtfile, start the server to apply the new version settings.Install plugins on a Minecraft server
To add plugins to your Minecraft server, follow these steps:
- Download the plugin: Obtain the plugin file (typically in
.jarformat) from trusted sources like spigotmc.org or hangar.papermc.io. Ensure the plugin version is compatible with your server's Minecraft version. - Locate the plugins folder: In the server's 'Files' (Pliki) tab, find and open the folder named
plugins. - Upload the plugin: Use the 'Send' (Wyślij) button to upload the
.jarfile directly into thepluginsfolder. - Restart the server: Restart your server to apply the changes and activate the plugin.
Important Considerations:
- Engine Compatibility: Not all server engines support plugins. Verify your engine compatibility in the server settings.
- Resource Usage: Adding plugins increases the server's resource consumption.
- Configuration: Some plugins may require additional setup; refer to the specific plugin's documentation for configuration details.
- Download the plugin: Obtain the plugin file (typically in
Install WinSCP for SFTP file management
To manage files via SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol), use WinSCP. Download the installer from the official site (winscp.net/eng/download.php) by selecting 'DOWNLOAD WINSCP'. Run the installer, select the version for all users, accept the license terms, and follow the installation prompts.Change the Minecraft server engine version to Paper
To change the server engine version to Paper, follow these steps. Warning: Before proceeding, ensure you have a full backup of your server data to avoid loss of progress.
- Stop the server: Shut down the server completely before modifying files.
- Replace the JAR file:
- Navigate to the Files (Pliki) tab.
- Locate and delete the existing
server.jarfile. - Download the desired Paper engine version from the official PaperMC site: https://fill-ui.papermc.io/projects/paper
- Upload the downloaded JAR file to the Files (Pliki) tab.
- Rename the uploaded file to exactly
server.jar.
- Restart the server: Start the server to apply the new engine version.
Verify Minecraft mod compatibility between client and server
To fix mod mismatch errors, perform the following checks:
- Compare the
mods/folder on the client with themods/folder on the server to ensure all mods and their versions are identical. - Verify that both the client and server are using the same modloader platform (e.g., both using Forge or both using Fabric), as they are not compatible with each other.
- Compare the
