Join Effects

JoinEffects is a modern, lightweight, and highly customizable Paper plugin that allows server owners to create unique join effects for players.

Unlike traditional join plugins that rely on hardcoded settings, JoinEffects uses a fully modular YAML-based engine. This allows you to create an unlimited number of custom effects, animations, and sequences directly from your configuration files.

Core Features

• Modular Configurations: Each effect is defined in its own YAML file. Keep your setups clean and organized.
• Sequence Engine: Every effect runs step-by-step. You can sequence titles, sounds, particles, fireworks, and delays easily.
• Modern API Support: Fully supports the Adventure API for MiniMessage formatting (gradients, hex colors) and PlaceholderAPI for dynamic text.
• LuckPerms Priority: Effects are permission-based. The plugin automatically checks a player's permissions and plays the highest priority effect available to them.
• Performance Focused: Built natively for Paper 1.21+ using Java 21. No outdated NMS, ensuring stability and long-term compatibility.
