Copy of Update | 1.21.4 to 1.21.8
This guide explains how to update any of our Ultimate setups from 1.21.4 to 1.21.8. If your setup is currently on 1.21.4, this is the guide you should follow.
Start by downloading the latest version of the setup you are using on BuiltByBit.
Before completing all the step below, please STOP your server to avoid any file corruption!
1. Updating the JAR
The first step is to update your server JAR. We recommend using Paper, so make sure to update to the latest 1.21.8 version of PaperMC: https://papermc.io/
2. Updating the Plugins
The next step is to update all plugins in the setup. The easiest way is to download the latest version of your setup from BuiltByBit. Then, delete the existing plugins on your server (except for any you added yourself) and upload the plugins from the latest setup version.
You also have to update all dependencies.
3. Updating the Resourcepack
In Minecraft 1.21.8, major changes were made to shaders in resourcepacks. Because of this, we’ve updated the shaders in the setup resourcepack.
By default, our setups use the ForcePack plugin to handle the resourcepack. In this case, simply update the config.yml by replacing the file on your server at: plugins > ForcePack > config.yml with the one from the latest version of the setup.
If you’re using ItemsAdder or Nexo, download the latest version of our premade folder for ItemsAdder/Nexo here:
4. Migrating to Multiverse-Core V5 (Optional)
In the 1.21.8, we have migrated the Multiverse-Core plugin to V5, as the plugin was recently rewritten. This step is technically optional. But if you want to migrate, you can just delete the Multiverse-Core plugins folder on your server and replace it with the one from the latest version of the setup. And update the plugin itself.
After that, the placeholders also have to be adjusted.
To do this, first change all instances of this: multiverse-core_name placeholder to this: multiverse-core_name in these files:
plugins > Skript > scripts >
Update Completed
If you have followed all of these steps, the update would be complete. If you have any issues with the setup after updating, please contact us on discord.
