When configured correctly, players automatically download your resource pack when they join.\n\n## Prerequisites\n\n- A Minecraft server running version 1.6 or higher\n- A resource pack in .zip format\n- A place to host your resource pack file (direct download link required)\n\n## Step 1: Host Your Resource Pack\n\nYour resource pack needs to be hosted somewhere that provides a **direct download link**. The URL must point directly to the .zip file.\n\n### Recommended Hosting Options\n\n- **Dropbox**: Upload your file, get the share link, and change `?dl=0` to `?dl=1` at the end\n- **Google Drive**: Upload, get shareable link, use format: `https:\u002F\u002Fdrive.google.com\u002Fuc?export=download&id=YOUR_FILE_ID`\n- **Your own web server**: Upload to your web server and use the direct URL\n- **GitHub Releases**: Upload as a release asset for a direct download link\n\n### Important Requirements\n\n- The URL must be a **direct download link** (no redirect pages)\n- The file must be a valid .zip archive\n- Maximum file size: 250MB (Minecraft limit)\n- The URL should use HTTPS for security\n\n## Step 2: Configure server.properties\n\n1. Go to [panel.doomhosting.com](https:\u002F\u002Fpanel.doomhosting.com)\n2. Select your Minecraft server\n3. Navigate to the Files tab\n4. Open `server.properties`\n5. Find and edit these settings:\n\n```\nresource-pack=https:\u002F\u002Fexample.com\u002Fyour-resource-pack.zip\nresource-pack-sha1=\nresource-pack-prompt=\nrequire-resource-pack=false\n```\n\n### Configuration Options Explained\n\n**resource-pack**\nThe direct download URL to your resource pack .zip file.\n\n**resource-pack-sha1** (optional but recommended)\nThe SHA-1 hash of your resource pack file. This ensures players download the correct file and enables caching. Generate it with:\n- Windows: `certutil -hashfile yourpack.zip SHA1`\n- Mac\u002FLinux: `shasum yourpack.zip`\n\n**resource-pack-prompt** (1.17+)\nCustom message shown to players when prompted to download the pack. Supports JSON text formatting.\n\n**require-resource-pack**\nSet to `true` to kick players who decline the resource pack. Set to `false` to make it optional.\n\n## Step 3: Apply Changes\n\n1. Save the `server.properties` file\n2. Restart your server\n3. Join your server to test the resource pack download\n\n## Example Configuration\n\nHere is an example of a complete resource pack configuration:\n\n```\nresource-pack=https:\u002F\u002Fwww.dropbox.com\u002Fs\u002Fabc123\u002Fmypack.zip?dl=1\nresource-pack-sha1=a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3n4o5p6q7r8s9t0\nresource-pack-prompt=Download our custom textures for the best experience!\nrequire-resource-pack=true\n```\n\n## Troubleshooting\n\n### Resource Pack Not Downloading\n\n- Verify the URL is a direct download link (test it in your browser)\n- Check that the URL uses HTTPS\n- Ensure the file is under 250MB\n- Confirm the .zip file is not corrupted\n\n### Players Getting Wrong Version\n\n- Update the SHA-1 hash after modifying your resource pack\n- Players may need to clear their resource pack cache\n- Re-upload the pack and update the URL if using services that cache files\n\n### SHA-1 Hash Not Matching\n\n- Regenerate the hash after any changes to the pack\n- Make sure you are hashing the exact file that is hosted\n- Do not modify the .zip after generating the hash\n\n## Tips for Resource Packs\n\n- Test your resource pack locally before uploading\n- Keep file sizes reasonable for faster downloads\n- Use version numbers in filenames when updating (e.g., mypack-v2.zip)\n- Consider providing an optional download link on your website for manual installation\n- Compress textures to reduce file size without losing quality\n\nNeed help with your resource pack setup?
