Converting to Premium¶

Upgrading is a jar swap: JManhunt out, JMH-Premium in. Both editions share the data format and the plugins/JManhunt data folder, so nothing needs rewriting or migrating.

1. Swap the jar¶

Delete the free plugin jar, then drop in the premium jar. On the first premium boot, any bundled modifiers and presets that the free edition never seeded copy into the mods folder; existing files (including your edits) stay untouched.

Never install both jars at once

Both jars share the JManhunt plugin name, so the server refuses to load the second jar instead of running two copies.

2. Keep your lobby or start fresh¶

Keep: define lobby boundaries inside the existing lobbyworld. No built work is lost.

Fresh: stop the server, delete the lobbyworld at world/dimensions/minecraft/jmh_lobby, start the server, and run /mh setup for the 3-minute dialogue setup. It offers the ADVANCED lobby template with three lobbies ready to go and extend on: the fastest route to parallel lobbies.

Skip one-click setup

One-click is for new servers, not converters. One-click anyway (data loss accepted): stop the server, delete the plugins/JManhunt data folder, restart; one-click appears on the next /manhunt run.
