Installation Guide

Elite Holograms works in single-player worlds, modpacks, and on multiplayer servers. The install steps are the same in every case: drop the JAR in your mods folder.

Requirements

  • One of the supported platforms:
    • Forge for Minecraft 1.19.2
    • Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1
    • NeoForge for Minecraft 1.21.1
    • NeoForge for Minecraft 26.1.2
  • Access to the mods folder of your instance, modpack, or server.
  • (Optional, servers only) A permissions mod for granular control:
    • LuckPerms
    • FTB Ranks

Installation Steps

  1. Download the correct build.

    • Go to the Elite Holograms CurseForge page and open the Files section.
    • Pick the JAR that matches your Minecraft version and loader:
      • Forge 1.19.2: EliteHolograms-1.19.2-1.1.0.jar
      • Forge 1.20.1: EliteHolograms-1.20.1-1.1.0.jar
      • NeoForge 1.21.1: EliteHolograms-1.21.1-1.1.0.jar
      • NeoForge 26.1.2: EliteHolograms-26.1.2-1.1.0.jar
    • Version numbers may differ for future releases.
  2. Add it to your mods folder.

    • Single-player / client: drop the JAR into .minecraft/mods (or the mods folder of your launcher profile).
    • Modpack: drop the JAR into the pack's mods folder, the same way you add any other mod.
    • Server: upload the JAR into the server's mods folder.
  3. (Servers, optional) Install a permissions mod.

    • If you want granular permissions, add LuckPerms or FTB Ranks to the mods folder too. Elite Holograms auto-detects them.
    • With no permissions mod, the commands fall back to requiring Operator (OP level 2).
  4. Launch.

    • Start the game (single-player/modpack) or restart the server.
  5. Verify.

    • Run /eh list. If the command is recognized (even with no holograms yet), the mod loaded successfully.
    • You can also check the log for EliteHolograms startup messages.

First Steps

  • Create your first hologram: /eh create welcome &bWelcome to the server!
  • See the Commands page for the full command list.
  • On a server, grant the appropriate Permissions to your groups so non-OP staff can build holograms.

Storage and Config Paths

  • Holograms and config live under config/eliteholograms.
  • Scoreboard holograms save to config/eliteholograms/scoreboard_holograms.json.
  • Scoreboard themes live in config/eliteholograms/scoreboard_themes.json (created on first run, never overwritten once it exists).
