TexturePackLoader

Load a server texture pack via URL — simple, lightweight, and fully configurable.

Overview
TexturePackLoader is a lightweight Paper plugin that automatically sends a resource pack to players when they join your server. Configure it with a single URL in config.yml and you're done. No external dependencies, no bloat.

Compatibility

Paper / Spigot 1.21.x — Requires Java 21+
Paper 26.x — Requires Java 25+ (same JAR, no recompile needed)

A single compiled JAR works on both server versions thanks to Paper's API backwards compatibility.

Features

Auto-send on join — The resource pack is sent to every player the moment they connect.
Required or optional — Configure whether players are kicked for declining or allowed to stay.
SHA-1 verification — Optionally provide a hash for Minecraft to verify pack integrity.
In-game commands — Change the URL, force-send to a player or all players, and reload config without restarting.
Custom kick message — Fully configurable message shown to players who decline.
Bypass permission — Allow specific players or staff to skip the pack requirement.
Tab completion — All subcommands and player names auto-complete.
