Polypack Host

Automatically build, host and require all your installed polymer mods resources!

Config (config/polypack_host.json)

• external_ip: The IP address to host the resource pack on. Leave empty to use the IP server's properties file.
  • Default: ``
• host_port: The port to host the resource pack on. Make sure this port is also forwarded, so it can be accessed externally.
  • Default: 24464
• thread_count: The number of threads the HTTP server is allowed to use. If the server cannot keep up with the requests, this may need to be increased.
  • Default: 1
• randomise_url: If this is set to true, it will make the client download a new version of the resource pack each time. If you have issues with players joining and being told there was a resource pack error, set this to true.
  • Default: false

Recommended Server Properties (server.properties)

• Set require-resource-pack to true so the client is mostly forced to use the resource pack.
• Set resource-pack-prompt to something like "Required Mod Resources"" so the player knows why the pack is required.
