Minecraft plugin ItemsAdder

🔌 About ItemsAdder

ItemsAdder — is a plugin for Minecraft servers that allows adding custom items, blocks, entities, GUIs and a generated resourcepack to extend vanilla gameplay.

🎯 Purpose

ItemsAdder solves the limitation of vanilla Minecraft by letting server owners introduce new visual assets and behaviours without requiring client mods. ItemsAdder enables custom tools, armors, blocks, decorative objects, vehicles and custom entities while providing an online editor and resourcepack management for distribution to players. This reduces the friction of adding large amounts of custom content to a Minecraft server and improves player experience on Spigot/Paper networks.

⚙ Main features

• Add custom items with custom models and textures (resourcepack generated by plugin).
• Create custom blocks, animated blocks and decorative objects.
• Define custom entities/mobs and NPCs (limited to server‑side implementations supported by the plugin).
• Custom armors, tools and weapons with custom visuals.
• GUI, HUD elements and emotes support.
• Online configuration editor / pack merging workflow for faster iteration.
• Designed for high‑online servers (author claims testing with 100+ players). ()
