Compatibility

One JAR supports Paper 1.21.1 through 1.21.11 and Paper 26.1.1 through 26.3. Java 21 is required for the 1.21.x server line; Paper 26.x requires Java 25. Compatible Paper forks may work, but the release matrix is validated against Paper API artifacts.

Install

1. Stop the server.
2. Put LifeHeartsPro-2.5.0.jar in the server's plugins directory.
3. Start the server once to create the configuration files.
4. Edit plugins/LifeHeartsPro/config.yml, language files or sounds.yml as needed.
5. Apply later configuration changes with /lifeheartspro reload.

Existing data.yml files from 2.4.x are kept compatible. Back up the server before every plugin update.
