What is CreativeGates3 Renewed?

CreativeGates3 Renewed is a Minecraft plugin written in Java for Spigot/Paper servers. It is a continuation of the plugin CreativeGates3 by Madus, which itself was a continuation of CreativeGates2 by MassiveCraft (the original creators of CreativeGates for Minecraft). This version has been updated to support Minecraft 1.21.4 and above.

If you're unfamiliar with the concept of CreativeGates, it allows players to create teleportation gates without the use of commands. The gates can be designed any way players want, as long as they meet a few basic requirements:

1. Build a gate using any materials, as long as it contains two emerald blocks (configurable).
2. Name a clock with an anvil (a unique name for the gate).
3. Hit the inside of the frame with the clock.
4. Gates with the same name will connect to each other.

As this particular implementation is a fork of CreativeGates3, it currently requires MassiveCore to run (which is supplied with the download). However, in a future release I hope to modify the plugin to no longer require MassiveCore.

The code for this plugin is open-source and can be found on GitHub. Releases and the Wiki are also found there. If you find bugs, please file an issue on the Issues page there.

Installation

CreativeGates3 Renewed is super easy to install. Simply download the latest .JAR file, then drop that in your plugins folder in your Spigot/Paper server files. Once you've done that, restart your server, then you can configure your permissions plugin of choice to add the permissions. That's it! For a list of system requirements and supported Minecraft versions, check out the Download tab.

Configuration

Configuration of CreativeGates3 Renewed is optional. The default configuration works perfectly for most use-cases. However, if you want to make tweaks to your configuration, you can read the legacy docs on web.archive.org (as they are no longer available on MassiveCraft's website). We will eventually create new versions of this documentation on the Wiki and will update this page when that is available.

Permissions

CreativeGates3 Renewed offers a few permission nodes to use and manage the plugin. Visit the Wiki for a comprehensive list of all permission nodes available.

Download

After downloading, it is recommended you review the Configuration/Permissions tab, which explains how to configure the plugin.
Downloads will soon also be available on SpigotMC.
