Server.pro – How to Install Plugins with Forge (Sponge) – Minecraft Java

Hello this is Kara from server Pro and today I’m going to be teaching you how to sell Forge on the latest version of Minecraft which at the moment is 1.1 1.2 with plugins so this uses a platform called sponge and the sponges are completing a new platform which has been

Built by developers that uses a separate API plugins so you can’t use your usual spigot and bucket plugins on the server where you can use a range of plugins which have been developed by developers for the sponge platform so let’s get straight into it so one of the first

Things that we need to do our install Forge on our minecraft server if you’ve done this already you can just skip ahead however let’s get straight into it so you need to go to the control panel under this tight section does this will change button here click that then

Select forge select the version that you wish to install and then select whether you want to remove files on up I’m going to click yes if you remove all the files you can’t get them back unless you back them up previously so keep that in mind and we do recommend removing the server

Files as it prevents any conflict or corruptions during the installation of forge and any mods that you may install all plugins out so once you’ve done that click install this confirms that you’re going to be eating all the server files and then I’ll begin installing forge Once Ford has finished install the server will start off I all just want to stop it so that there aren’t any problems drawing the installation of the sponge so we’ll start that and then what you want to do is go to the sponge website which is www.hyken.com load that

And we’re going to be installing sponge for Forge so you click the download button under the relevant tab now you’re going to select the version of Minecraft which you’re running on the forge a server so in this case I’m running 1.1 1.2 as you can see here so if we watch

This tab and in the top right you’ll be able to select the version so I’m gonna select one point more warm point 2 which is actually an experimental build at the moment so there are no stable builds out so I wouldn’t really recommend doing this for the latest version what for 1.1

0.2 you can install stable versions which should work properly but feel free to use an experimental build that just maybe a couple of issues during the installation or when you run it that may cause some poor games not to work fully so I’m going to download the latest

Build and we’re going to save this wherever we wish I’m going to save it to my downloads folder we’re going to wipe start the download then we need to go back to the control panel for your minecraft server click on file manager and then you want to go into the mods

Folder then we’re going to click upload file and then I’m just going to finish waiting for to download and I’ll be back with you now that spawn has finished downloading to my computer I’ll be able to continue uploading it so on the upload file tab you go to choose files

Then you select the jar file you downloaded earlier and then you click upload from computer so sponge has now finished uploading to the server as you can see here it should appear as so then what you’ll need to do is simply start your server and it should load the server with

Sponge API installed so you can install specific plugins which I’ll go through with you once the server started correctly so once the server starts up correctly you’ll be able to start installing the sponge plugin so you can tell the server start up correctly by looking for the done message in the

Console once it’s done go to the sponge website and then we’re going to go to the section of the sponge website where you download plugins so you could type in or got a sponge powered select rightly sponge powered dog this is where you can download the plugins that are available for the

Sponge platform so I’m going to install ultimate call today which is like sort of like the equivalent to essentials it’s got a couple commands like teleports and homes and things like that so you’re just going to go to the download tab in the top right over here

Continue and you should go to begin its downloads and reporting as you can see here so now I found loaded we can go back to the control panel go to the file manager go to the mods folder not the plugins folder as you usually would with

A bucket or speaker server and then you can click upload file choose files select the plug-in that you want to upload upload from computer then it will begin uploading the plugins which it has done very quickly restart the server and then it should start loading the server

With the plugin installed so I’ll get back to you once it’s finished starting up so now that the server has started up successfully again you can look for the done message to see it starts off correctly you can go to your minecraft client and launch sponge so make sure

You select the right profile which is a bit different on this new launcher if you haven’t used already and we do have a tutorial on how to install forge on our YouTube channel for the client so just go to music Alex you haven’t been able to do this before then click Play I

Will launch the Minecraft client with and sorry it Forge installed so that we can join the server I will be able to use the plugins from the sponge platform usually you would use this with a forward chef that has mods on playing this case I haven’t got any on because

It’s just a tutorial so now the game’s launched will be able to go to the multiplayer tab add our server grab our IP address from the control panel and we’ll just call this and the sponge plugin so please Forge so now we’re going to type in the address my youtube

My server dot yes click done it should come up so you’ll be able to join the server and you can see the other plugins are installed as it’s working correctly and you can tag commands like slash sets at home plugins and then there you go so you’ll

Be able to use basic commands like that and you can feel free to go back to the sponge website and view the commands for plugins like I have been doing here for the documentation and and yet feel free to go ahead with that so now I’m just

Going to show you where you can find the configuration files for the plugins so if you go back to control panel go to file manager and then in the mods folder usually on a spigot or book it sir but there will be a separate folder as generated inside the plugins folder for

The plugins configuration files in this case it’s not generated in the mods folder if you go back to the main directory and then your guard plant at holds up for the problem so in this case I installed ultimate core so the ultimate call holding folder is here and

It’s got various things inside of here that you can use so there you go so we can find the configuration path and that’s all you need to know really for response server it have any questions or problems feel free to contact our support and remember that spawns is in

Early development so there may be some problems that you can especially if you’re using an experimental build but good luck they have any problems feel free to contact us thank you for watching have a great day and goodbye
