Setup

This will walk you through installing HuskChat on your Velocity or BungeeCord/Waterfall-based proxy server.

Requirements

  • Java 16+

Single-server Setup Instructions

  1. Turn off your Spigot server
  2. Download the latest version of HuskChat.
  3. Add the jar file to your Spigot server's ~/plugins folder
  4. Start your Spigot server. Let HuskChat generate its config files, then stop the server again.

Multi-server Setup Instructions

  2. Download the latest version of HuskChat.
  3. Download both the latest version of UnsignedVelocity and VPacketEvents

  5. Start your Velocity proxy. Let HuskChat generate its config files, then stop the proxy again.
  6. Modify your HuskChat config files as needed, then start your Velocity proxy again.

BungeeCord/Waterfall Installation

Warning:
As there's not a good chat message stripping plugin for Bungee proxies at the moment, your mileage may vary with using HuskChat on Minecraft 1.19.1+. We recommend Velocity for it's stronger performance, security & more modern codebase.
  1. Turn off your BungeeCord/Waterfall proxy
  2. Download the latest version of HuskChat.
  3. Add the jar file to your BungeeCord/Waterfall proxy server's ~/plugins folder
  4. Start your BungeeCord/Waterfall proxy. Let HuskChat generate its config files, then stop the proxy again.
  5. Modify your HuskChat config files as needed, then start your BungeeCord/Waterfall proxy again.
