Sponge on 26.1-pre-2: common questions
Does Sponge support Minecraft 26.1-pre-2?
Yes. 1 build has been published for 26.1-pre-2, the newest being build 1. This is not a declared claim: each build below is a real file the project released for this version.
Which Java version do I need for Sponge 26.1-pre-2?
Java 25 or newer. The requirement comes from Minecraft 26.1-pre-2 itself rather than from Sponge, so it applies to any server software running this version. A newer Java than that is fine.
Which Sponge build should I run on 26.1-pre-2?
The newest one, build 1, published 15 h ago. Later builds for the same Minecraft version are bug fixes and performance work, so there is rarely a reason to run an older one deliberately.
Is this download official?
Yes. Every link points at Sponge's own release or API. MCReference does not mirror, re-host or repackage a jar; where the project publishes a SHA-256 we show it so you can verify the file you got.
