Replace the ArchiveFile-based media asset loading system with a new
FolderFile implementation that reads files directly from a folder
structure instead of from compressed .arc archives. This change
simplifies asset management and eliminates the need for pre-packaged
media archives.
Key changes:
- Added FolderFile class that indexes and reads files from a folder
- Updated Consoles_App to use FolderFile instead of ArchiveFile
- Modified CMake asset copy configuration to exclude platform-specific
media folders instead of .arc files
- Updated platform-specific media path references to point to folders
instead of .arc files
This enables easier development and debugging by allowing direct access
to media files without requiring archive extraction or repackaging.

Adds the FourKit .NET 10 plugin host as a second dedicated server
build flavour alongside the existing vanilla server. Both flavours
build from the same source tree, with FourKit gated by the
MINECRAFT_SERVER_FOURKIT_BUILD preprocessor define.
Build layout:
Minecraft.Server vanilla, no plugin support, no .NET dep
Minecraft.Server.FourKit FourKit-enabled, ships with bundled
.NET 10 self-contained runtime in runtime/
and an empty plugins/ folder
Both produce a Minecraft.Server.exe in their own per-target output
dir. The variant identity lives in the directory name, not the
binary name, so either flavour can be shipped as a drop-in.
Native bridge (Minecraft.Server/FourKit*.{cpp,h}):
* FourKitRuntime: hosts CoreCLR via hostfxr's command-line init API
(the runtime-config API does not support self-contained components)
* FourKitBridge: ~50 Fire* event entry points, with inline no-op
stubs for the standalone build so gameplay code can call them
unconditionally
* FourKitNatives: ~80 native callbacks the managed side invokes
for player/world/inventory mutations
* FourKitMappers: type and enum mapping helpers
Managed plugin host (Minecraft.Server.FourKit/):
* Bukkit-style API: Player, World, Block, Inventory, Command,
Listener, EventHandler attribute, ~54 event classes
* PluginLoader with per-plugin AssemblyLoadContext
* FourKitHost as the [UnmanagedCallersOnly] entry point table
* Runtime resolves plugins relative to the host process so they
always live next to Minecraft.Server.exe regardless of where the
managed assembly itself is loaded from
Engine hooks (Minecraft.Client/, Minecraft.World/):
* Player lifecycle (PreLogin, Login, Join, Quit, Kick, Move,
Teleport, Portal, Death) wired into PendingConnection and
PlayerConnection without disturbing the cipher handshake or
identity-token security flow
* Inventory open/click/drop hooks across every container menu type
* Block place/break/grow/burn/spread/from-to hooks across the
full tile family
* Bed enter/leave, sign change, entity damage/death, ender pearl
teleport hooks
Regression fixes preserved while applying donor diffs:
* ServerPlayer::die() retains the LCE-Revelations hardcore branch
(setGameMode(ADVENTURE) + banPlayerForHardcoreDeath) in both the
FourKit and non-FourKit code paths
* ServerLevel::entityAdded() retains the sub-entity ID reassignment
loop required by the client's handleAddMob offset, fixing Ender
Dragon and Wither boss multi-part hit detection
* LivingEntity::travel() retains the raw Player* cast and the
cached frictionTile, both Revelations perf wins that the donor
silently reverted
* ServerLogger.cpp keeps the file-logging code donor stripped
* PlayerList.cpp end portal transition fix and UIScene_EndPoem
bounds-check are intact
Build system:
* Top-level CMakeLists.txt adds the Minecraft.Server.FourKit
subdirectory and pulls in the new shared cmake/ServerTarget.cmake
helper
* Minecraft.Server/cmake/sources/Common.cmake is now location
independent (uses CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR) so the source list
can be consumed from either server target's CMakeLists.txt
* The seven FourKit*.cpp/h files live in their own
_MINECRAFT_SERVER_COMMON_SERVER_FOURKIT variable so the
standalone target omits them
* configure-time .NET 10 SDK check fails fast with a clear
download link if the SDK is missing
* global.json pins the SDK to 10.0.100 with latestFeature
rollforward
Sample plugin (samples/HelloPlugin/) demonstrates the loader and
the PlayerJoinEvent listener pattern.
CI:
* nightly.yml builds both server flavours, ships
LCE-Revelations-Server-Win64.zip and
LCE-Revelations-Server-Win64-FourKit.zip, attests both, and
updates release notes for the dual-flavour layout
* pull-request.yml pulls in actions/setup-dotnet so the FourKit
publish step works in PR validation
* All zip artifacts and the client zip are renamed from
LCREWindows64 to LCE-Revelations-{Client,Server}-Win64
Documentation:
* COMPILE.md gets a VS 2022 quick start, .NET 10 prereq section,
server flavours explanation, and a troubleshooting section
* docs/FOURKIT_PORT_RECON.md captures the file-by-file recon that
drove the port
* docs/FOURKIT_PARITY.md is the canonical reference for which
events FourKit fires
Docker:
* docker-compose.dedicated-server.yml MC_RUNTIME_DIR default points
at the vanilla CMake output. The FourKit Docker image is
intentionally NOT shipped yet because hosting .NET 10 self
contained inside Wine has not been smoke-tested
* Move to cmake
* Move sources to source_groups and ditch more old VS files
* Add BuildVer.h generation
* Break out cmake source lists to platforms
* Don't copy swf files

* Remove old ps1 build scripts
* add: Dedicated Server implementation
- Introduced `ServerMain.cpp` for the dedicated server logic, handling command-line arguments, server initialization, and network management.
- Created `postbuild_server.ps1` script for post-build tasks, including copying necessary resources and DLLs for the dedicated server.
- Added `CopyServerAssets.cmake` to manage the copying of server assets during the build process, ensuring required files are available for the dedicated server.
- Defined project filters in `Minecraft.Server.vcxproj.filters` for better organization of server-related files.
* add: refactor world loader & add server properties
- Introduced ServerLogger for logging startup steps and world I/O operations.
- Implemented ServerProperties for loading and saving server configuration from `server.properties`.
- Added WorldManager to handle world loading and creation based on server properties.
- Updated ServerMain to integrate server properties loading and world management.
- Enhanced project files to include new source and header files for the server components.
* update: implement enhanced logging functionality with configurable log levels
* update: update keyboard and mouse input initialization 1dc8a005ed
* fix: change virtual screen resolution to 1920x1080(HD)
Since 31881af56936aeef38ff322b975fd0 , `skinHud.swf` for 720 is not included in `MediaWindows64.arc`,
the app crashes unless the virtual screen is set to HD.
* fix: dedicated server build settings for miniaudio migration and missing sources
- remove stale Windows64 Miles (mss64) link/copy references from server build
- add Common/Filesystem/Filesystem.cpp to Minecraft.Server.vcxproj
- add Windows64/PostProcesser.cpp to Minecraft.Server.vcxproj
- fix unresolved externals (PostProcesser::*, FileExists) in dedicated server build
* update: changed the virtual screen to 720p
Since the crash caused by the 720p `skinHud.swf` not being included in `MediaWindows64.arc` has been resolved, switching back to 720p to reduce resource usage.
* add: add Docker support for Dedicated Server
add with entrypoint and build scripts
* fix: add initial save for newly created worlds in dedicated server
on the server side, I fixed the behavior introduced after commit aadb511, where newly created worlds are intentionally not saved to disk immediately.
* update: add basically all configuration options that are implemented in the classes to `server.properties`
* update: add LAN advertising configuration for server.properties
LAN-Discovery, which isn’t needed in server mode and could potentially be a security risk, has also been disabled(only server mode).
* add: add implementing interactive command line using linenoise
- Integrated linenoise library for line editing and completion in the server console.
- Updated ServerLogger to handle external writes safely during logging.
- Modified ServerMain to initialize and manage the ServerCli for command input.
- The implementation is separate from everything else, so it doesn't affect anything else.
- The command input section and execution section are separated into threads.
* update: enhance command line completion with predictive hints
Like most command line tools, it highlights predictions in gray.
* add: implement `StringUtils` for string manipulation and refactor usages
Unified the scattered utility functions.
* fix: send DisconnectPacket on shutdown and fix Win64 recv-thread teardown race
Before this change, server/host shutdown closed sockets directly in
ServerConnection::stop(), which bypassed the normal disconnect flow.
As a result, clients could be dropped without receiving a proper
DisconnectPacket during stop/kill/world-close paths.
Also, WinsockNetLayer::Shutdown() could destroy synchronization objects
while host-side recv threads were still exiting, causing a crash in
RecvThreadProc (access violation on world close in host mode).
* fix: return client to menus when Win64 host connection drops
- Add client-side host disconnect handling in CPlatformNetworkManagerStub::DoWork() for _WINDOWS64.
- When in QNET_STATE_GAME_PLAY as a non-host and WinsockNetLayer::IsConnected() becomes false, trigger g_NetworkManager.HandleDisconnect(false) to enter the normal disconnect/UI flow.
- Use m_bLeaveGameOnTick as a one-shot guard to prevent repeated disconnect handling while the link remains down.
- Reset m_bLeaveGameOnTick on LeaveGame(), HostGame(), and JoinGame() to avoid stale state across sessions.
* update: converted Japanese comments to English
* add: create `Minecraft.Server` developer guide in English and Japanese
* update: add note about issue
* add: add `nlohmann/json` json lib

- add BanManager storage for banned-players.json and banned-ips.json with load/save/update flows
- add persistent player and IP ban checks during dedicated server connection handling
- add UTF-8 BOM-safe JSON parsing and shared file helpers backed by nlohmann/json
- add Unicode-safe ban file read/write and safer atomic replacement behavior on Windows
- add active-ban snapshot APIs and expiry-aware filtering for expires metadata
- add RAII-based dedicated access shutdown handling during server startup and teardown
* update: changed file read/write operations to use `FileUtils`.
- As a side effect, saving has become faster!
* fix: Re-added the source that had somehow disappeared.
* add: significantly improved the dedicated server logging system
- add ServerLogManager to Minecraft.Server as the single entry point for dedicated-server log output
- forward CMinecraftApp logger output to the server logger when running with g_Win64DedicatedServer
- add named network logs for incoming, accepted, rejected, and disconnected connections
- cache connection metadata by smallId so player name and remote IP remain available for disconnect logs
- keep Minecraft.Client changes minimal by using lightweight hook points and handling log orchestration on the server side
* fix: added the updated library source
* add: add `ban` and `pardon` commands for Player and IP
* fix: fix stop command shutdown process
add dedicated server shutdown request handling
* fix: fixed the save logic during server shutdown
Removed redundant repeated saves and eliminated the risks of async writes.
* update: added new sever files to Docker entrypoint

- unify duplicated implementations that were copied repeatedly
- update outdated patterns to more modern ones
* fix: include UI header (new update fix)
* fix: fix the detection range for excessive logging
`getHighestNonEmptyY()` returning `-1` occurs normally when the chunk is entirely air.
The caller (`Minecraft.World/LevelChunk.cpp:2400`) normalizes `-1` to `0`.

As the number of commands has increased and become harder to navigate, each command has been organized into separate folders.
* update: support stream(file stdin) input mode for server CLI
Support for the stream (file stdin) required when attaching a tty to a Docker container on Linux.
* add: add new CLI Console Commands for Dedicated Server
Most of these commands are executed using the command dispatcher implemented on the `Minecraft.World` side. When registering them with the dispatcher, the sender uses a permission-enabled configuration that treats the CLI as a player.
- default game.
- enchant
- experience.
- give
- kill(currently, getting a permission error for some reason)
- time
- weather.
- update tp & gamemode command
