Excessively Asked Questions

Mike Liu edited this page Feb 18, 2017 · 1 revision

Due to the inability for people to read labels, use intuition, or otherwise figure out issues themselves, I've assembled a list of questions i shouldn't need to answer more than once. Please check here before you come find me. Yes I am being blunt here, because if I say things too kindly people don't seem to get it.

Which jar file do I use?

I'm really not sure why this is even a question, but this is asked so much it's ridiculous.

  • If you are running a minecraft server use the -server.jar.
  • If you are running a minecraft client use the -client.jar.
  • If you are a developer who wants to use my plugins as libraries use the unlabeled jar.
  • If you want the source code use the -sources.jar

IF YOU ARE ACTUALLY TRYING TO RUN THE PLUGINS, DO NOT USE THE UNLABELED JAR FILE. THAT IS FOR DEVELOPERS ONLY.

People using my maven repository automatically get the unlabeled jar and the sources jar, which is why they are named the way they are.

Why aren't the fox plugins loading and why isn't my server starting?

Make sure you have the correct files installed. Refer to the first question if you need help. If that doesn't fix it, then come find me.

How do I use your plugin?

This wiki is here for a reason. Tab complete is your friend. Text can be clicked on.

My plugins have a lot of integrated ease of use features. For example, you can click TAB at any point when typing out commands to get a list of suggestions at that point. Command output will often have clickable text. This is denoted by hovertext describing the action clicking will perform.

Ask other users. I can't usually teach people how to use the plugin, but my IRC channel and discord servers are VERY GOOD RESOURCES because there are more experienced users there that can help when I can't.


I will expand this list as people continue to throw questions at me. I just felt the need to make this after realizing yet another issue was due to users doing something wrong.
