Bonge

Install

Sponge Vanilla and Lantern
**Lantern users only follow these steps before starting - These steps can be ignored however may cause issues when loading** 1. Open the Lantern settings 2. Change the Sponge plugins folder location to another 3. Move your Sponge plugins into that new location **Bonge plugins can be launched from another location if changed in the Bonge config, however this may break support for some plugins**
  1. Download the latest compatible release of Bonge
  2. Place the downloaded file into your Sponge plugins folder (Sponge Vanilla it is the folder named "Mods", Lantern it is the folder you changed)
  3. Run the server
  4. After the server has started completely, shut down the server. A new folder called "plugins" will appear
  5. Download and place any Bukkit plugin you wish to run into the plugins folder
  6. Run the server and enjoy
Sponge Forge
Sponge Forge does not allow the loading of some files that Bukkit plugins required, therefore Forge needs to be modified to have these files added directly to the Forge file for Bonge to correctly load plugins. This is compatible with every Forge version no matter of MC version or release version and does not harm Forge at all. A backup of your Forge version is created and that's the file that is modified therefore no harm will come to Forge. No files inside Forge are modified, only files are added to it therefore compatibility with the modifications will not be affected.

If you run on a server host, please make sure that you are allowed to upload custom versions of Forge.jar (or minecraft-server.jar - please follow steps as normal only instead of Forge.jar, use minecraft-server.jar), if you are not then please get in contact with your server host to allow the use of a modified version of Forge, they may be willing to patch the Forge they provide for users of theirs to use or may outright allow the uploading of custom Forge varients. Sadly we cannot safely patch Forge while Forge is running. If this is the case please make an issue on our GitHub issues page requesting your desire. If you know a workaround for Forge to load Bonge then, by all means, make a pull request, we wish to make the install process as simple as possible.

  1. Download the latest compatible release of Bonge
  2. Place the downloaded file into your Sponge plugins folder (Sponge Forge it is the folder named "Mods")
  3. Run Bonge as a normal application
Open Bonge via command
1. Open your command prompt (Windows - search "CMD", Linux and MacOS - search "Terminal")
2. type the following command `cd ` (where is the location to the folder that Bonge is located in)
3. Hit enter
4. type the following command `java -jar Bonge.jar`
5. hit enter
  1. Select the "Search" button
  2. Select your Forge.jar file
  3. Select the "Patch" file.
  4. Wait for the progress bar to state "Complete" (This will create a new file named "Patched-Forge.jar")
  5. Run Patched-Forge.jar as your regular Forge.jar file
