FAQ
- “Hold an item” with a spear? — Use main hand, not off-hand.
- Enchantments (e.g. Protection III)? — Vanilla enchants stay; only custom name/lore change. Avoid full
/lore setif another plugin puts enchant text in lore. - Folia? — Supported.
- No colors? — Check syntax (
&,&#); most setups need no resource pack.
