ResourcePackEnforcer
Enforce your server's resource pack — with kick message, update checker & full customization.
[HR][/HR]
Overview
ResourcePackEnforcer is a lightweight Spigot plugin that automatically sends a resource pack to players when they join your server. If a player declines the pack, they will be kicked with a fully customizable message. No more players bypassing your server's resource pack!
Everything is configurable — the pack URL, SHA-1 hash, kick message, prompt text, and send delay. All messages support color codes and hex colors out of the box.
