Troubleshooting
Resource reload failed
Run:
/texteffect validate
/texteffect zip
Then check that the generated ZIP is hosted as a direct download URL.
Effects show as solid colours
This means the text tag worked, but the resource pack is not loaded on the client.
Check:
resource-pack.resource-pack-url
resource-pack.send-on-join
No messages.yml or text_effects.yml generated
This is intentional. TextEffect messages and effects are internal in v1.0.0.
Player tags do not work
Player-facing features are disabled by default. Enable the feature in settings.yml and make sure the player has the matching effect permission.
Example:
texteffect.rainbow
DecentHolograms line does not animate
Make sure the client has loaded the TextEffect resource pack. Hologram text will not animate without the shader pack loaded.
