⚙️ Troubleshooting Guide
Running into issues? This page will walk you through the most common problems and how to solve them.
✅ First Things First: Is Your Server Set Up Correctly?
Before anything else, double-check these essentials:
- 🧱 You followed the official installation instructions
- 🧾 You're running Paper 1.21.4 as your server jar
- 🆕 You're using the latest version of the setup (check on BuiltByBit)
- ☕ You're running Java 21 (download here)
⚠️ Potentially Unsupported Features
Some setups may cause unexpected behavior:
- 🛑 Engines other than Paper (like Purpur) — while they may work, only Paper is officially supported.
- ❌ Unofficial Minecraft clients — third-party launchers or custom clients can break functionality.
- 🔄 ViaVersion / ViaRewind / etc. — allow unsupported versions to join, which may cause bugs or visual issues.
⚠️ Check Your Minecraft Client
- ✅ Use Minecraft 1.21.4 — other versions aren’t guaranteed to work.
- 🎮 Use the official launcher, and avoid mods or custom launchers - those are not guaranteed to work.
🎨 Texture Pack Doesn’t Work?
A few things could be causing this:
- 🧩 Using ItemsAdder or Oraxen?
You’ll need to merge the resource pack properly. Use the official guides:
→ ItemsAdder Guide
→ Oraxen Guide - 🈲 Check the “Force Unicode Font” setting in your client (disable it).
- 🛠️ Modified the resource pack or models?
Revert to the default files, then reapply changes one by one to find what broke. - 📁 Using Oraxen/ItemsAdder?
Remove the 📁modelengine/
folder from the resource pack. - 🔁 Broken models?
Replace your ModelEngine plugin folder and resource pack with clean files from the original setup.
🔒 "Chat disabled due to missing profile public key. Please try reconnecting."
Open your server.properties
file (main server folder) and make sure that enforce-secure-profile
is set to false
.
enforce-secure-profile: false
☠️ Can't access Dungeons or Spawn?
Make sure these folders exist in your server’s root directory:
spawn
dungeons
world
Also check that:
📁 plugins/unlimited_adventures/Dungeons/FloorData
is not empty.
If it is, restore it from a clean setup.
✨ Wilderness Teleport doesn't work?
You've probably deleted the wild_tp
region.
→ Recreate it to restore teleportation to the Wilderness.
✨ Keep getting teleported back to spawn?
The spawn
world might be missing — possibly deleted manually or when removing the WorldGuard folder.
→ Recreate it or restore your WorldGuard data.
🐢 Random Teleport is slow
The teleport itself is instant — lag comes from new chunk generation.
✅ Fix: Pre-generate your map in a radius equal to (or larger than) your RTP range. This ensures RTP is truly instantaneous ⭐
🪶 Feather above your head?
This means the Adventure Apparel resource pack is broken or the Adventure Apparel is misconfigured.
🔁 Revert any changes you made to the resource pack and Adventure Apparel to fix the issue.
🧔🏽 Default NPCs Have Weird Text Above Their Heads?
🧼 Just restart your server — this will clear any unwanted NPC text overlays.
