Ultimate Minecraft Plugin Guide – Episode 4

Hello everyone and welcome back to the breakdown today I’m gonna be teaching you guys how you can choose the best plug-ins for your network or spigot server really just your minecraft server in general now every server is going to have different plugins on it but I’m

Gonna go over the major ones that you need on most minecraft servers and then I’m going to suggest some specific ones for each individual type of servers actually next week I’m going to be doing its tour on how does it’ll make factions server as well as a Skyblock server and

Then after that I’m gonna do like basic survival plugins and things like that that you need to know when getting your survival server setup so basically I’m gonna be going over a lot of these specific but I wanted to outline some general plugins that you’re gonna need

For your minecraft server no matter what and talk about some more that are a little more server specific as well so first and foremost here we need to mention our sponsor which is shocked by go to the breakdown to XYZ size shock bite first link down below to get an

Awesome 24 hour DDoS protected minecraft server that you can actually start a network server on that easy integration of bungee cord I’m gonna set up a network server with just a few clicks again go check it out then it’s the first link down below the breakdown XYZ slash shock bytes nevertheless what

Plugins are you going to need no matter what on your minecraft server well first and foremost you’re going to need a permissions plug-in basically this is how you’re gonna manage everything from what players with no ranks have to what owners have to what just all of your

Donators have right with all the stuff that they have it allows you to separate all that and award things to certain people and not give things to other people now bucket and spigot do have their own plugins and own permissions built in so does bungee cord but overall

I wouldn’t recommend using those I would recommend using an external permissions plug-in one that’s built specifically for permissions now there are a few out there Peck’s is really good permissions X that is a really really good plug-in for permissions and that’s kind of the oldie but the goodie right everybody has

Had some experience with permissions X actually did a video on permissions X way back in the day because that was the best permissions plug-in back then but now it’s really not i mean you know starting a network server in 2018 is something that I recently did play it off breakdown craft

Come check it out and when I was looking for permissions plug-in there I was like what are we gonna go with pecs I’m sure pecs is still think and it is but from what I’ve researched luck perms is really what you want to go with here luck perms is easy bungy integration

Easy integration across your entire network of servers allowing you to do specific ranks for specific servers or global ranks and all sorts of stuff with luck perms whereas pecs isn’t as good for network servers and luck perms also has this very easy like editor that you can open up and you know

Just edit everything from your computer without even having to give an FTP and do all that stuff but you’re gonna have it need an FTP to install it but the fact that they have everything kind of laid out in a simple format is great I absolutely love it and I’m gonna be

Doing an entire video on setting up luck perms in a few weeks so look forward to that and that is the plug-in I would recommend for permissions on top of that there is bungy perms which is a great permissions plugin for bungee as well not as good as that promise in my

Opinion but to each their own if that’s what you want to go with if you look at it say I actually like bungee firms better than luck perms well then go ahead and use that all these plugins are linked in the description down below now from there you’re gonna need some more

Stuff on every minecraft server you create and one of those things is world in it now the world that it does help you building and things like that it also can help you know restore nature and take care of some grief even though I wouldn’t recommend necessarily using

It for that but what world edit does give you is the ability to use world guard and world guard is very important for every minecraft server specifically the ability to protect spawn areas right whether it’s your hub like actual Lobby spawn or whether it’s just the spawn

When you log into a world right nobody wants to log into a world and see grief everywhere where people have just or even player built like houses and when you start doing that and getting it like as soon as you spawn in seeing that stuff it just gets overwhelming right so

What you want to do is have a lot of area protected around your spawn and this is what world guard can do and it allows for so much more than that so you want to have your server as no pvp all around except for a specific area right

You want to have like a PvP area or a PvP arena where all guard allows you to make that happened that’s what’s so great about were Lagarde it gives you tons of options say you want a safe area where you don’t want people to be able to like

Get killed by mobs and things like that well guess what world guard can set that up for you you want an area where players can’t kill each other but can open chests and do things like that guess what that can be done with world guards that is how important it is and

That’s why nearly every single minecraft server has it or has something equivalent to it from there you’re also going to most likely want by craft or engine this is how gonna be able to sell things on your server and actually keep the doors open it cost some money to

Start a minecraft server and keep it up and running and guess what you want to recoup some of that money if not hopefully all of it and start making a profit with your server by selling things and buy craft / timox which is what it’s now called buy craft has

Became timox and engine are the best ways to do that both are great just look at whichever one you want personally I use my craft and we’ll be doing a video on that and do one in the past one will be doing an update video on timox / buy

Craft so yeah pretty awesome stuff there and that’s what I would recommend you’re going to need to sell stuff on your server to keep the doors open especially if you want to do any kind of big marketing and scale it and do all that stuff you just want a smaller

Server you’re not gonna need that but if you want a big Network server you’re going to need to make some money to keep it running it’s just how it works from there you’re most likely going to what essentials and that’s something I would recommend for most servers essentials lies you do

Things like spawn set homes things of that nature and for the most part everyone’s going to want that on a server so I recommend essentials on most servers now with that being said sometimes you don’t need that sometimes maybe with Skyblock or you know a specific mini game it’s you don’t need

That and that’s why every single server is specific but overall essentials or essentials X really is a great plug-in to look into and something you’re going to need on every survival server most faction servers and things like that it also can allow for like nametags and a

Simple sign shop and things of that nature in-game so that’s a plus as well from there guys what about chat well you can do chat a few different ways you can make it server specific meaning if you have a network server only people in Skyblock can talk to each other only

People and survival can talk to each other or you can make it across your entire Bunji Network whereas whenever anybody on any server talks everybody on every server sees it this is good for smaller tighter knit communities and we’re currently running something like this even though in the long term we probably

Won’t run that forever and this is called a multi chat multi chat is a great plugin for keeping everything synched up on a server and yeah that’s what I would recommend if you’re looking to do that as well from there as I said at the beginning every server is

Different and I do have a ton of different videos coming up on how to set up factions in prison and Skyblock in a survival server and all that stuff for your network server if that’s something you’re looking to do if you didn’t here whatever server you’re wanting to set up

Mentioned here let me know in the comments and I will try to add it to the list as well to make sure we can get everything covered here I mean why not and on top of that I’ll be doing some tutorials on some plugins such as luck perms possibly worldguard I don’t know

If that’s on the list and a few others just to make sure you get everything set up correctly on your network server like it’s supposed to be on top of all that you can find other plugins on the websites on your screen right now which is spigen MC and that’s their entire

Spigot plug-in resource page it’s got tons of different spigot plugins made for all different versions of Minecraft and then on top of that there is the bucket plugins site on cursed boards which is a very trusted site awesome plugins over there for bucket and those will also work on spigot servers just

Like your spigot plugins will also work on your bucket servers so you can check out those in the description down below if you are looking for a place to go find specific plugins just make sure it is updated and you get the correct version for whatever version of server

You’re running for example you want to get 1.12 dot 2 plug-ins for 1.12 dot 2 server and 1.13 plugins for any 1.13 server pretty simple stuff there you can also have custom plugins made if you’ve looked and looked and looked and can’t find a plug-in that you’re wanting to do

I would recommend somewhere like MC market which is linked down below MC – market dot org so I go in and find somebody to make a custom plugin for you but buyer beware there I’m not promoting anyone over there just know that there is a lot of developers over there in a

Big community of people you can easily make a bucket plugin for you doing whatever you really want it to do as long as it’s possible with in Java and minecraft so there’s my recommendation guys what did I miss I’m sure I missed something let me know in the comment

Section down below and we’ll try to create kind of a resource in the comments everybody can come and browse through and see plugins and things like that so nonetheless guys comment down below give the video thumbs up subscribe to the channel you haven’t already my name is Nick this has been I think
