Frequently asked
Does Medieval Factions work on Minecraft 1.21?
Yes. 1.21 is the newest Minecraft version Medieval Factions declares support for, and the claim comes from the author's own release metadata rather than from a compatibility list somebody maintains by hand.
Do I need to install Medieval Factions on the client or the server?
The server only. Players join with an ordinary Minecraft client and install nothing.
Which server software does Medieval Factions need?
Spigot. A build for one server platform will not load on another, so this is the first thing to check before the Minecraft version.
Which Java version do I need for Medieval Factions?
On the newest Minecraft release it supports, Java 21 or newer. The requirement comes from the Minecraft version you run rather than from the plugin itself, so on an older supported Minecraft the answer is that version's Java, not this one.
How do I install Medieval Factions?
Download the file from the author's own release, drop it into your server's plugins folder, and restart the server. It generates its configuration on first start. Check the Minecraft version matches the one your server runs.
Where do I download Medieval Factions safely?
From the author's own page on SpigotMC, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference never mirrors, re-hosts or repackages a file: every download button points at the original source, so you get exactly what the author published.
Works on the same versions
