[Question] quilt compatibility?

[Fauli1221]

Is it possible to run a quiltmc server with mscs?

This seems like it would be similar to using Forge in MSCS Forge uses an installer and it looks like Quilt does as well.

Please note that I did not test this and is my best guess on how to make Quilt work!

Download the Quilt installer and run.

Replace {INSTALLER_VERSION}, {MINECRAFT_VERSION} as needed.

mkdir -p /opt/mscs/server/quilt-{MINECRAFT_VERSION}
cd /opt/mscs/server/quilt-{MINECRAFT_VERSION}
wget {URL_TO_QUILT_INSTALLER}
java -jar quilt-installer-{INSTALLER_VERSION}.jar \
  install server {MINECRAFT_VERSION} \
  --download-server

Then it should be similar to the Forge 1.16.5 instructions.

Replace {PORT} with the next available server port.

mscs create quilt {PORT}
editor /opt/mscs/worlds/quilt/mscs.properties

Add this

mscs-client-version={MINECRAFT_VERSION}
mscs-server-version={MINECRAFT_VERSION}
mscs-server-jar=quilt-{MINECRAFT_VERSION}/quilt-server-launch.jar
mscs-server-url=

And save

Yes this works thank you

Added QuiltMC to docs https://minecraftservercontrol.github.io/docs/mscs/adjusting-world-server-properties/quiltmc

I did not check this myself, it's based on the conversation above

After running through the setup, I couldn't get my server to launch. <world_path>/console.out reports:

The Minecraft server .JAR is missing (/opt/mscs/worlds/quilt-server/server.jar)!

Quilt's server-side launcher expects the server .JAR to be provided.
You can edit its location in quilt-server-launcher.properties.

Without the official Minecraft server .JAR, Quilt Loader cannot launch.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to setup Quilt server environment!
    at org.quiltmc.loader.impl.launch.server.QuiltServerLauncher.main(QuiltServerLauncher.java:60)
Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Missing game jar at /opt/mscs/worlds/quilt-server/server.jar

    at org.quiltmc.loader.impl.launch.server.QuiltServerLauncher.main(QuiltServerLauncher.java:58)

So I went ahead and modified /opt/mscs/worlds/quilt-server/quilt-server-launcher.properties with the path to the regular server jar:

serverJar=/opt/mscs/server/minecraft_server.1.20.1.jar

I'm not sure if maybe it'd of been better to copy the jar into my world folder and point the path there but this seems to work fine.
