ResourcePack

ResourcePack-Structure

The ResourcePack has changed from what some might be used to. This is in an effort to make importing third-party ResourcePacks a lot easier. Below is an example of the new structure. For reference; Oraxen/pack/models -> Nexo/pack/assets/minecraft/models

📁Nexo
└── 📁pack
    └── 📁assets
    │    ├── 📁minecraft
    │    │    ├── 📁models
    │    │    │    ├── 📁item
    │    │    │    │    └── 📑paper.json
    │    │    │    └── 📑custom_model.json
    │    │    └── 📁textures
    │    │         └── 🖼️something.png
    │    └── 📁custom_namespace
    │        └── 📁models
    │            └── 📑custom.json
    │  
    └── 📁external_packs
        ├── 📁DefaultPack.zip
        ├── 📁custom_resourcepack.zip
        └── 📁custom_resourcepack2
            └── 📁assets
                └── 📁custom_namespace2

Goal is to let users merge resourcepacks in via either ZIPs or directories, outside of the normal assets folder. This would dynamically merge in any conflicting files, like a paper.json or sounds.json, instead of migrating it to oraxen-configs to be generated. Meaning that pack-import instructions on your end now boils down to: Put my_pack.zip inside Nexo/pack/external_packs

Obfuscation

Nexo has a built in way to "obfuscate" the content of your resource-pack. This is done by randomizing all file-names in an attempt to make it very hard and annoying to try and take stuff from it for pirates. It comes with three modes, NONE, SIMPLE, FULL NONE - Self-explanatory, does not obfuscate pack in any way SIMPLE - Obfuscates filenames only namespace:model/path.json -> namespace:bba2d60b-8e3e-4051-9734-fef92766777f FULL - Obfuscates namespace & filename; namespace:model/path.json -> c491303e-ba1e-4037-a59d-62b5fdfb6bb8:bba2d60b-8e3e-4051-9734-fef92766777f

PackSquash-Integration

Pack:
 generation:
    packsquash:
      enabled: true
      executable_path: plugins/Nexo/pack/packsquash/packsquash
      settings_path: plugins/Nexo/pack/packsquash/packsquash.toml

To enable Nexo's PackSquash-integration simply enable Pack.generation.packsquash.enabled in settings.yml. Then when the pack generates, it will start the PackSquash process. If it suceeds you should see somehting like the below.

If it failed you should see some detailed info about which file and a reason for it. If Nexo's debug-mode is enabled, it will output info about all successful files aswell

Depending on your TOML-configuration & ResourcePack size & complexity, the PackSquash process might take some time. Nexo will cache the output so that if the ResourcePack does not change, the PackSquash process will not need to be ran again

PackServer

Cross-Server/Proxy ResourcePacks

Nexo by default has no support for handling resourcepacks across a velocity/bungee network. This is however not inherently needed, as the player will keep the resourcepack when swapping servers, unless the new server sends a new resourcepack.

Assuming you have a Server A, Server B & Server C:

Set Pack.server to NONE for Server B & Server C. That way the player joins Server A and loads the resourcepack. When they then swap to Server B or C, the resourcepack from Server A will not be unloaded. The downside here is that if the player joins Server A from B or C, they will get sent the resourcepack again and load it

Importing

Nexo lets you import Third-Party ResourcePacks in several ways. The recommended one is shown above, by adding a directory or .zip to `plugins/Nexo/pack/external_packs` There is also Plugin.import.from_location in settings.yml, letting you specify a directory/zip relative to your plugins folder There is also Plugin.import.from_url in settings.yml, letting you specify any url that Nexo will download a directory/zip from and include
