• Attention DeluxeAnnounce Users!

  We want to inform you about an important update to the plugin. The entire plugin structure has been completely relocated to make it easier for developers to manage modules between Spigot, Bungeecord, and possibly Velocity (although the latter is not confirmed).

  It is essential that you delete the following directories before updating:

  - plugins/STN Studios/

  - plugins/DeluxeAnnounce/cache/

  Additionally, the API has also been relocated. You can now find the simple API at the following link: https://announce.stn-studios.dev/en/api

  Please note that this version is in BETA. If you plan to use the plugin on a live server with players, we strongly recommend testing it first in a local environment (localhost) to avoid potential issues on your main server.

  IMPORTANT: Support for Java 8 has been dropped. All users must now use Java 17 or higher. The plugin still supports all Spigot versions from 1.8.9 to 1.21.4, but Java 17 is required.

  Use of this version is at your own risk. If you need support, you can open a ticket in our Discord: https://stn-studios.dev/discord

  Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

  Sincerely,The STN Studios Team.
