🚀 Quick Installation

Paper
Purpur
Bukkit
Spigot

  1. 📥 Download the .jar
  2. 📂 Place in plugins/
  3. 🔁 Restart server
  4. 🧭 Craft/give yourself a Natural Compass and explore!

⚠️⚠️⚠️ Server Admin Note — Bedrock Resource Pack ⚠️⚠️⚠️

The Bedrock resource pack was generated using Rainbow (client-side Fabric mod) to create Geyser Custom Item API v2 mappings.

  • Rainbow: GitHub — used to build the pack, not a plugin dependency
  • Requirement: Your server must use a Geyser fork with Custom API v2 for textures/icons to display properly

Without this setup, Bedrock players can still use the compass — textures and visual features will not appear.


Java Edition

Java Resource Pack
— Animated compass needle, ready for Java Edition V1.1-SNAPSHOT.

Bedrock Edition

Bedrock Resource Pack
— Requires Geyser + Custom API v2 to work on Bedrock V1.0-SNAPSHOT.
