ForgeCraftPLUGINS & EQUIPMENT

ForgeMarket Free · 0.1.3 preview

Installation and upgrades

  1. 01Back up and stop your test server. Use an exact build from Tested builds and limits: Java 21 for the tested 1.21.x builds; Java 25 for the listed 26.x builds. On 1.21.6, apply the required menu-button setting before starting.
  2. 02Put one JAR in plugins/: ForgeMarket-free-0.1.3-SNAPSHOT.jar for the free edition. The separate Premium JAR is not released yet.
  3. 03Start fully. Look for ForgeMarket Free ready or ForgeMarket Premium ready and confirm no plugin error.
  4. 04Join and use /fmarket. Both editions store data in plugins/ForgeMarket/.
  5. 05Set your funding policy and fees before inviting players. With the default separate wallet, an operator grants funds using /fmarket credit PlayerName 100.00.

The plugin does not mint money on login. Vault, an external database, Donut SMP, a client mod and a resource pack are not mandatory. Spigot, Minecraft 1.21.5 and earlier, Forge/Fabric and proxy software are not supported plugin hosts.

Upgrading to Premium

Do not install both editions together. Stop, back up the whole plugins/ForgeMarket/ directory, replace the Free JAR with Premium and restart. Existing shops, stock, receipts and wallets are retained. Do not downgrade Minecraft itself after storing newer item data.

Native menu setup

Both editions support qualified Paper-family builds from 1.21.6 onward, including the listed 1.21.7, 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10, 1.21.11 and 26.x builds. Minecraft 1.21.6 needs the internal-button spam exclusion documented in Native menu compatibility. Newer supported versions need no menu-button exclusion.
