Installation

What EliteSpawner needs, and how to get it running on your server in a few minutes.

Getting EliteSpawner running takes a couple of minutes, and it works out of the box. Here's what you need and the steps to follow.

Requirements

ServerPaper, Purpur or Folia
Minecraft1.20.6 to 26.3
Java21 or newer
DependenciesNone

Nothing else required

Everything on the Integrations page is optional. EliteSpawner works on its own, with its own price list for selling and its own spawner protection.

Installing

Download the jar

Grab the latest version from wherever you bought it. Buying direct from the DenizenMC Store saves you 10%.

Add it to your server

Stop your server, drop EliteSpawner-<version>.jar into the plugins folder, and start it again.

Restart, don't reload

Always fully restart when adding or updating a plugin. Reloading plugins with /reload or a plugin manager isn't supported.

Look around the new folder

On first start, EliteSpawner creates its folder with everything ready to go:

config.yml
mob_spawners.yml
item_spawners.yml
prices.yml
synergies.yml
traits.yml
enrichments.yml

Each file is explained on Configuration files.

Give yourself a spawner

Try the give command with any type from mob_spawners.yml:

/esp give <your-name> mob <type>

Tab completion lists every type you have, so there's nothing to look up.

Tweak and reload

Adjust the config, then apply your changes without a restart:

/esp reload

Updating

Back up first

Until 1.0, the config and database layout can change between versions. Read the changelog on the store page and keep a copy of plugins/EliteSpawner before updating a live server.

When an update adds new settings or messages, they're added to your existing files automatically and a backup is made first. Your own changes stay exactly as they were.
