How to work with custom themes

Custom Themes

As of 5.0.0 you can create your own themes for ServerPackCreator. To get an idea on what a custom theme looks like, take a look at the different properties-files inside the themes-directory when using ServerPackCreators GUI.

To see the examples in action, browse to Settings -> GUI and select any of the following from the themes-dropdown:

• BisectHosting

• Chorb

• Elocin

• Kreezxil

• ModernGamingWorld

They're people, or in the case of BisectHosting a company, which have had a noticeable impact on ServerPackCreator in a good way. So as a little "Thank You", I've decided to add custom themes in their name.

The FormDev theme editor was used in the creation of these themes. You can get it here: https://www.formdev.com/flatlaf/theme-editor/#download

Run the downloaded JAR-file and point it towards the themes-directory. That will allow you to take a proper look at the custom themes, along with a preview of your changes.

FormDevs documentation for customization is pretty nice. I suggest you take a thorough look at it over at: https://www.formdev.com/flatlaf/customizing/

Experiment with the existing themes, create your own and have fun!

Every .properties-file in the themes-folder will automatically be added to the list of available themes inside ServerPackCreator. If you've added or changed a theme whilst running ServerPackCreator, you will need to restart it for the changes to take effect.

Request for theme creations will be ignored. Please be aware that I implemented this feature so YOU can create themes. Not in order for ME to create themes FOR you. :D

Happy theming!
