Requirements
TIP
With the release of Minecraft 1.18+, DivineMC requires Java 17 to run.
Migrating to DivineMC
From Vanilla
Migrating from Vanilla is easy, but there are some differences, namely in world saves. DivineMC (and CraftBukkit and Spigot) separate out each dimension of a world (nether, the end, etc.) into separate world folders.
DivineMC will handle this conversion for you automatically. No additional consideration is required.
From Craftbukkit or Spigot
DivineMC is a drop in replacement for both CraftBukkit and Spigot, you don't need to make any changes.
Downloading DivineMC
DivineMC provides runnable server jars directly from releases tab on GitHub.
Click on the DivineMC-paperclip-VERSION-mojmap.jar to download a runnable paperclip jar.
Running The Server
To run the server, simply start it up like any other Java application.
Open your terminal, navigate to the saved location, and then run java -Xms2G -Xmx2G -jar divinemc.jar --nogui. Ensure you replace divinemc.jar with the name of the jar you have downloaded. (or just rename downloaded jar to server.jar)
The amount of RAM can be set by changing the numbers in the -Xms and -Xmx arguments. --nogui disables Vanilla's GUI, so you don't get double interfaces when using the command line.
