Can the head database plugin be used on singleplayer?

Post by Skywardthedragon »

I like using these heads to decorate my builds, but it can be frustrating having to copy-paste all of the code. The head database plugin looks like it would help, but I'm not making any servers, just singleplayer builds. I don't know a lot about plugins since I mostly play Minecraft on singleplayer.

Hi,

the HeadDatabase is for Spigot servers, not for Vanilla gameplay. So no - Plugins cannot be run on Vanilla.

But you could setup a small local spigot server which can use plugins.

All you need is a Minecraft server version like Paper from this link:
https://papermc.io/downloads#Paper-1.16

Then create a batchfile (.bat) with the following content:

Code: Select all

java -Xmx4096M -Xms4096M -jar YOURDOWNLOADEDJAR.jar nogui
PAUSE
Replace the "YOURDOWNLOADEDJAR.jar" with the name of your jar ofc.

You start the server with a doubleclick on the .bat-file and login via multiplayer, connect to "localhost" there.

Try it and if you can get the server to work, you can simply add the HeadDatabase to the plugins folder.

Honestly, that sounds a lot more complicated than just copy-pasting the codes. Thank you, though!

it's not really ;-)

download, write the codeline to the batchfile, start the server, add the plugin... :?

let me know if you change your mind and need help
