Configuration

Basic Configuration

# VersionTinmoli Configuration File
# Customize the version name displayed in the server list

# Language setting (en_US or zh_CN)
language: "en_US"

# Version name configuration
version_name: "Velocity 1.8.x-1.21.11"

Language Settings

The plugin supports multiple languages. You can set the language in the configuration file:

• en_US - English
• zh_CN - Simplified Chinese

After modifying the language field, use /vt reload to reload the configuration and switch languages. All command messages and prompts will be displayed in the corresponding language.

Language File Customization

Language files are automatically copied to the external directory on first run:

• Velocity: plugins/versiontinmoli/lang/
• BungeeCord: plugins/VersionTinmoli/lang/
• Bukkit: plugins/VersionTinmoli/lang/

You can edit these files to customize messages. The plugin will load from the external directory first, then fall back to the built-in files.

FAQ

Migrating from TOML to YAML

If you're upgrading from an older version (before v1.0.2), you need to migrate your configuration from TOML format to YAML format.

Automatic Migration (Recommended):

1. Backup your config.toml file
2. Delete the config.toml file
3. Restart the server or run /vt reload
4. The plugin will automatically create a new config.yml file
5. Edit config.yml and set your custom version name

Manual Migration:

TOML format (old):

version_name = "My Server 1.20"

YAML format (new):

version_name: "My Server 1.20"

Main difference: Use colon : instead of equals sign =

Configuration Not Working

1. Ensure the configuration file is in the correct location
2. Check YAML syntax is correct
3. Use /vt reload to reload configuration
4. If still not working, restart the server

Colors Not Displaying or Showing as Text

Problem: RGB color codes display as text like Red</> Green</>

Cause: Using incorrect closing tags </>

Solution:

# Wrong
version_name: "<#FF5555>Red</> <#55FF55>Green</>"

# Correct
version_name: "<#FF5555>Red <#55FF55>Green"
version_name: "<color:#FF5555>Red</color> <color:#55FF55>Green</color>"

Other Color Issues:

1. Velocity: Use MiniMessage format <gold>text</gold>
2. BungeeCord/Bukkit: Use & or § color codes
3. RGB colors require Minecraft 1.16+ client
4. Check server logs for errors

Platform-Specific Requirements

1. Velocity: Requires Velocity 3.0+ and Java 21+
2. BungeeCord: Requires BungeeCord 1.16+ and Java 17+
3. Bukkit: Requires Minecraft 1.20.1+ and Java 17+
