About this video: This video is our complete guide on how to make a Minecraft server with plugins in 1.20.1. Why would you want to add plugins to a Minecraft server? Well, plugins allow you to customize and change your Minecraft server while also letting anyone join without downloads on their end. This is different to mods which do require your players to download files and install them locally to join the server.
Additionally, plugins are a lot lighter and more efficient than Minecraft mods meaning your server will perform better with less resources being consumed.
First things first, we need to download PurPur to create a server with plugins in Minecraft. The reason is because PurPur is the server software that allows Minecraft plugins to be installed and played. You can find a link to download PurPur 1.20.1 in the description above. Once you are there, click the download button next to the most recent 1.20.1 version.
After you have PurPur downloaded, create a folder on your desktop named “Minecraft Server with Plugins”, and move the PurPur file you downloaded to it. Then, right-click the purpur file you downloaded and rename it to just be “purpur” or “purpur.jar” depending on your File Explorer settings.
Once things have been renamed, create a new text document and open it. Copy and paste the code from the description above depending on how much RAM you want your Minecraft server with plugins to have. With the code pasted in the text document, click “File”, “Save As”, and name the file “run.bat”. Make sure to change save type as to “All Files”. Then, save the file.
Double click the newly created run.bat file to start the server. The first time you start the server, it will fail, but you will have a new eula.txt file. Open this, and change eula=false to eula=true assuming you agree to the Minecraft 1.20.1 EULA. Save the eula.txt file.
Next, double-click the run.bat file. When you do this, your Minecraft 1.20.1 server will start with the ability to have plugins added to it. There will now be a “plugins” folder in your Minecraft server directory.
Now, let’s look at how to add plugins to a Minecraft server in 1.20.1. We have a link above to where you can download some of the best plugins for Minecraft. This will work for any plugin though just make sure that is for Minecraft 1.20.1.
With the plugins downloaded, all you need to do install plugins in Minecraft 1.20.1 is add the plugins to the “plugins” folder in your server’s directory. Once you do this, restart the server, and your Minecraft 1.20.1 plugins will activate!
And with that, you now know how to add plugins to a Minecraft server in 1.20.1. If you have any questions about how to make a Minecraft server with plugins, let us know in the comments. We will try our best to help you out.
