PingVersion is a lightweight plugin that allows you to change the jar version that players see when their game version or server version is outdated. This does not actually change the jar name so doing /ver in game will show the actual server version.
- Tested Minecraft Versions:
- 1.8
- 1.9
- Contributors:
- Exloki
Example:
To configure the version simply go into the config.yml and change "server-version-string" to whatever you want the version name to be.
Example:
DependenciesCode (Text):# This defines the string sent to clients as the server version
server-version-string: 'Speggert 1.8'
This plugin relies on ProtocolLib in order to work
This has only been tested on Spigot 1.8 and Spigot 1.9. Compatible with ViaVersion.
Notes: I did not make this plugin, this was made by a developer named Exloki. Exloki has given me permission to post this plugin. If you need proof feel free to PM me. As Exloki has made this plugin, no further updates will be made.

If you get this to work with BungeeCord it would be five stars! Really like the plugin so far!

1. Doesn't work on BungeeCord, only on spigot, but it doesn't matter, that's why ProtocolChanger is better.
2. Blocks your server ping, it shows as offline in 1.7-1.8, on spigot.
Needs to be recoded. ProtocolChanger actually supports bungee & spigot. -

Very Good plugin. But I have a problem. I have an 1.8.8 server and when I join from an 1.8.9 client it says that the server is outdated but I still can join the server. What can I do?

Does what it say's but I was hoping for more.
1. Version is still red.
2. Does not allow showing the server as online.
In my case, I was kinda hoping it would allow me to report my network as online for different versions. I have multiple fallback servers in different versions so players can join with alternate client versions but even though bungee does do matching, it always tells them its offline cause they don't match my main lobby version.
This plugin is great if you want to hide your version for whatever reason, presumably so players can't join. -
