MOTD Generator

MOTD is the server description in the list. Minecraft supports two lines and color codes (the § character + a letter). Write text, color it, and copy the result into server.properties.

Result for server.properties

How to use it

  1. Copy the result from the field above.
  2. Open server.properties.
  3. Find the line motd= and insert the value.
  4. Restart the server (or use a MOTD plugin, then a reload is enough).

V souboru server.properties the character is written § directly, or as \u00A7. In plugins and on posters you use the same format as here in the field above.

Tipy

  • Keep the first line short — only a limited width is displayed in the list.
  • Don't forget to include the address that players connect to in the MOTD.
  • Combine colors sparingly, otherwise the text will disappear into the background.
