⚡ Performance modes

Light (default) is recommended for small and medium servers: better performance and lower memory usage. Animations and particles are disabled.

Heavy is for servers that want every visual feature: animations (gradient, rainbow, typing, wave, pulsing, scrolling) and particles.

📋 Requirements

• Java 17+
• Minecraft 1.17.x – 1.21.x
• Paper, Purpur or Spigot
• Optional: PlaceholderAPI, MySQL (the driver is downloaded by the server on first start, internet access to Maven Central is required once), any permissions plugin such as LuckPerms for custom groups
