Installation

1. Download the latest release 2. Place the JAR file in your server's `plugins` folder 3. Start/restart your server 4. A `packs` folder will be created in `plugins/Resourceloader/` 5. Place your resource pack files in the `packs` folder 6. Configure the packs in `config.yml` 7. Use `/resourcereload` to apply changes

File-based Resource Packs

To use file-based resource packs: 1. Place your .zip resource pack files in the `plugins/Resourceloader/packs/` folder 2. In config.yml, use just the filename (e.g., "my-pack.zip") instead of a full URL 3. The plugin will automatically look for the file in the packs folder

URL-based Resource Packs

For URL-based packs: 1. Use the complete URL in config.yml (e.g., "https://example.com/pack.zip") 2. Ensure the URL is directly downloadable 3. The URL must point to a valid Minecraft resource pack .zip file

Requirements

- Minecraft 1.13 or newer - Spigot/Paper server
