General Plugin Installation

Deploying Minedream plugins onto your server network is straightforward. All plugins are distributed as standard Java .jar files.

Step-by-step Guide

• 1
  Download the Plugin JAR

  Go to our Main Website's download grid and grab the latest compiled .jar release for your desired plugin.

• 2
  Place in Plugins Directory

  Move the downloaded .jar file into the /plugins/ directory in the root of your Spigot, Paper, or Purpur Minecraft server folder.

• 3
  Start/Restart the Server

  Restart the server. On boot, the console will log the plugin initialization and automatically create a configuration folder containing the default settings templates.

• 4
  Configure and Reload

  Open the generated config files (like config.yml), customize ports or options, and run the server reload command or restart to apply.

CrossChat: Overview & Modes

CrossChat bridges communication across multiple Spigot servers. It routes chats instantly using a fast, custom TCP protocol, removing any dependency on Redis or database servers.

How it Works

CrossChat operates in three modes configured inside the plugin's properties file. By adapting these configurations, you can build private server chat hubs, connect guests to a centralized Spigot proxy, or tap into the public cloud network.

CrossChat: config.yml

The primary config file regulates the plugin's network identity, login credentials, and interface options.

# CrossChat Configuration

# Mode can be: host, guest, public
# host: This server acts as the central router. Forward 'host-port' and set a password.
# guest: Connect to a host server via 'guest-ip' and 'guest-port' with 'password'.
# public: Connect to api.cc.mine-dream.org (no password, 5s message cooldown).
mode: public

# Port for host mode (when other servers connect to this server)
host-port: 25600

# Password required for connection in host and guest modes
password: "change-me"

# Connection details for guest mode
guest-ip: "127.0.0.1"
guest-port: 25600

# If true, players can run /crosschat to toggle visibility.
# If false, players see CrossChat messages permanently.
hide-command: true

# Whether players have CrossChat hidden by default (only takes effect if hide-command is true)
hidden-by-default: false

Options Reference

CrossChat: lang.yml

Modify prefixes, system error messages, and chat layouts. Supported color formats follow standard Spigot formatting (using `&` codes).

# CrossChat Language File

# The format of messages received from other servers
# Use {player} for the sender's username and {message} for the message content.
message-format: "&3[CrossChat] {player} >> {message}"

# Cooldown message (only applicable in public mode, 5s cooldown)
# Use {time} for the remaining time in seconds.
cooldown-message: "&cPlease wait {time} seconds before sending another message."

# Banned message sent to players banned locally on this server
banned-message: "&cYou are banned from sending messages to other servers."

# Status update format for players with crosschat.status permission
# Use {status} for the translated status text.
status-format: "&e[CrossChat] Current Status: {status}"

# Status translations (with color codes)
status-connected: "&aConnected"
status-disconnected: "&cDisconnected"
status-banned: "&cBanned"

  Generate a secure link (https://verge.mine-dream.org) to edit your server's permissions, groups, and prefixes in an interactive web UI. Changes sync back to the server in real-time.

• Permission Inheritance

  Nest groups and build complex parent-child permission hierarchies with automatic resolution.

• Built-in Chat Formatter

  Includes a high-performance chat formatter that resolves prefixes, suffixes, and group memberships for your server's chat messages.

• Comprehensive Permission System

  Supports wildcard permissions (*), negative permissions, and per-group or per-user overrides.

• Interactive Tutorial

  Built-in tutorial system (/verge tutorial) to guide administrators through setting up permissions.

• Lightweight & Efficient

  Designed to have minimal impact on server performance, even with large permission sets.

Verge: Commands & Permissions

Manage permissions, groups, and users in-game using commands and permissions.

In-Game Commands

Plugin Permissions

Verge: Configuration

Configure the built-in chat formatter, default group assignment, and debugging options.

config.yml

Configure the built-in chat formatter, default group assignment, and debugging options:

# Verge Configuration

# Enable or disable Verge's built-in chat formatter
formatter-enabled: true

# Chat format (supports prefixes, suffixes, usernames, and color codes)
chat-format: "{prefix}{player}{suffix}&7: &f{message}"

# The name of the default group assigned to new users
default-group: "default"

# Enables debug logging in the console
debug: false

groups.yml

Define permission groups with weights, prefixes, inheritance parents, and permission nodes:

# Verge Group Data
default:
  weight: 1
  prefix: "&7[Member] &7"
  suffix: ""
  parents: []
  permissions:
    verge.use: true

admin:
  weight: 100
  prefix: "&c[Admin] &f"
  suffix: ""
  parents:
    - default
  permissions:
    "*": true

Verge: Web Editor

Verge includes a fully-featured web-based permission editor available at verge.mine-dream.org. Run /verge editor in-game to generate a secure session link.

Features

The web editor allows you to:

• View and manage all permission groups and their members
• Add, remove, and toggle permission nodes
• Configure group inheritance hierarchies with drag-and-drop parents
• Edit group and user metadata (prefixes, suffixes, weights)
• Manage per-user permission overrides
• Changes sync back to your server in real-time

GriefLog: Overview

GriefLog is a lightweight block change logger that supports rollback and restores via an administrative wand selection. It logs various types of block changes and allows administrators to revert them within a specified time window.

Key Features

• Comprehensive Event Logging

  Logs block breaking, placing, explosions, fire, and liquid flow.

• Liquid Flow Logging

  Includes water and lava flow to reverse flooded areas and lava-casts.

• Wand Selection

  Define target regions quickly with an administrative wand.

• Performance Optimization

  Logs are written to an in-memory queue and flushed asynchronously. Rollbacks are batch-applied (default 250 blocks/tick) to keep TPS high.

GriefLog: Commands & Permissions

Use the GriefWand to select regions and roll back changes using commands and permissions.

In-Game Commands

Time Units

Use the following time units for the /ungrief command:

• s — seconds
• m — minutes
• h — hours
• d — days
• w — weeks
• mo — months

Plugin Permissions

GriefLog: Configuration

Configure logging, retention, rollback batch sizes, and event sources.

config.yml

Customize log retention, purge intervals, and rollback behavior:

# GriefLog Configuration

# How long to keep log entries before auto-purging.
# Supported units: s, m, h, d, w, mo
retention: 3d

# How often (in minutes) to run the auto-purge task.
purge-interval-minutes: 30

# Async flush interval for the in-memory log queue (in ticks).
flush-interval-ticks: 20

# Maximum number of blocks to apply per tick during a rollback.
rollback-batch-size: 250

# Which event sources to log.
log:
  player-break: true
  player-place: true
  explosions: true
  fire: true
  liquid-flow: true   # high-volume; tune retention accordingly

# Delete entries after they are rolled back (prevents double-rollback).
delete-on-rollback: true
