- Full automation.
- No need to ask for email or password.
- Easy to configure & use.
Different with other account verification plugins, MelonAuth will NOT ask for the player for their email or passwords.
When a new players joins in the server, MelonAuth will generate a 192 bit long random verification code, convert it to 8x8 color blocks and paint it on the top-left corner of the player's skin image.
What the player needs to do is to download the painted skin image, login minecraft.net(or Minecraft Launcher) and upload it as their new skin.
When the player uploads their new skin, minecraft.net will choose whether or not to ask the player for additional verification information(depend on the account activities of this account). Generally, the user of illegal account will fall in difficulties at this step, because can't complete the additional verification challenge, which were set by the original owner of the account.
Simply speaking, MelonAuth will verify the legality of the Minecraft account through the original security verification of the Mojang account system.
MelonAuth will start account verification automatically when a new player login server. To know how the players complete the verification, please read Verification Manual.
MelonAuth will NOT request any privacy information from you. All private information that may be required will be transmitted directly between you and Mojang. It will not be collected by any third-party(include the server you may want to join).
Don't worry about your shirt. The place where the verification code painted is invisible in the game. The original skin and painted skin will look no different in the actual visual effects. So, you can just keep the verification code on your body(actually there are nothing different looks on your body), no further action needed after the verification (such as change back to the original skin).
