I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Sponge For Bukkit is a plugin that allows you to run Sponge-style plugins alongside Bukkit/Paper plugins on your Minecraft server.
Features:
- Load Sponge plugins directly from /plugins/SpongeForBukkit/sponge-plugins/
- Bukkit and Paper plugins placed in the same folder are also supported
- Configurable plugin prefix for all messages
- /sbreload command to reload configuration
- /spongeplugins (/sp) command with pagination to list all loaded plugins
- Sponge plugin configs can remain in their own folders or follow Bukkit standard
Requirements:
- Minecraft 1.21+ (Bukkit or Paper)
- Java 21
Installation:
- Place the Sponge For Bukkit plugin jar into your
/plugins/folder - Create a
sponge-pluginsfolder inside/plugins/SpongeForBukkit/ - Drop your Sponge or Bukkit plugins into the
sponge-pluginsfolder - Start or reload your server
Note:
You do NOT have to create the sponge-plugins folder, as it is only optional.
