RankForge is a feature-complete rank progression plugin built around vanilla Minecraft XP. Players advance through customizable rank chains by meeting real in-game requirements—money, XP levels, playtime, mob kills, block breaks, and more.
No bloat · No fake currencies · No mandatory dependencies
⚡ Key Features
- 11+ Requirement Types: Vault economy, vanilla XP, wall-clock playtime, mob kills, block breaks, items, stats, worlds, permissions, and custom API gates.
- Interactive GUIs: Animated rank tree (/rank) with live requirement statuses, plus an in-game admin editor (/rank editor) with drag-and-drop slot reordering.
- Dual Storage System: Scale from YAML flat-files to high-performance HikariCP MySQL connection pools with automatic fail-safe fallback.
- Full Hot-Reload: Instantly apply changes to ranks, messages, and GUIs using /rank reload without server restarts.
- Integrations: Native support for PlaceholderAPI (20+ placeholders), LuckPerms, Vault, and Geyser/Floodgate (Bedrock UUID compatibility).
- Developer-Friendly: Clean Java API, custom requirement registration, and event listeners (RankupEvent, RankSetEvent).
✅ Requirements
