Starter Guide

After the plugin is successfully loaded for the first time, several folders and files will be generated in the plugins/CustomArcheology directory in the server's root directory. These are the configuration files for CustomArcheology. Here is an introduction to the purpose of each folder and file:

• config.yml: The main configuration file for the plugin. Common configuration options are usually provided here.

• blocks folder: A folder containing the configuration files for archaeology blocks. It stores the configuration files for all the archaeology blocks in the plugin.

• languages folder: A folder containing the configuration files for plugin languages. It stores the language files for the plugin. You can set the language file used by the plugin in config.yml.

• loottables folder: A folder containing the configuration files for loot tables. It stores the configuration files for all the loot tables in the plugin. Loot tables are often used in the configuration files for archaeology blocks to specify the rewards that players can obtain after archaeological excavation.

• pack folder: The directory where the plugin generates the resource pack. CustomArcheology needs to be used in conjunction with a resource pack, and you need to distribute this resource pack to players.

• textures folder: The directory where the textures for plugin archaeology blocks and archaeological tools are stored.

• tools folder: A folder containing the configuration files for archaeological tools. It stores the configuration files for all the archaeological tools in the plugin.

Resource Pack Install

CustomArcheology requires your player use specifeid resource pack to display custom archeology block and tools, so:

• If your server don't have resource pack yet, just zip your pack folder and ask your players install it in their Minecraft client. For more info, please view below.

• If your server use other resource pack plugin, you need merge these two resource packs first. For ItemsAdder and Oraxen plugin, we have auto merge feature. (Require enable auto-copy-resourcepack.enabled option in config.yml and set correct value at auto-copy-resourcepack config section)

How to install resource pack?

First, you have to answer me a question: Are you using resource pack plugins like ItemsAdder?

If no, you must install the resource pack at Minecraft client.

• Open the game.

• At main menu, click Options... button.

• At options menu, click Resource Packs... button.

• Zip plugin's /pack/ folder, then drag and drop it to this window.

• Click the new resource pack to add it to game.

• All is done, join your server and now you will see custom card textures!

If yes, you have to merge the two resource pack. For ItemsAdder and Oraxen plugin, we have auto merge feature. (Require enable auto-copy-resourcepack.enabled option in config.yml and set correct value at auto-copy-resourcepack config section)

• We use Blue_dye as material, if your other resource pack plugin does not use it as material, you just need copy and paste FlipCard's resource pack to the other plugin's resource pack.

• If your other resource pack plugin use it White_dye as material, you have to merge the two resource pack. This is a little complex, maybe this site can help you. What's more, you can also contact our staff to help you merge!

• CustomArcheology does not send the resource pack to players, so you need use the other resource pack plugin to send the merged resource pack to players.
