Conversion Errors

Issues that may occur when converting configs between plugins using the LK Creator Converter.

1. Properties Not Converting

Symptom: Some YAML properties from the source plugin are missing in the converted output.

Cause: Not all properties have direct equivalents across plugins. The Converter maps what it can and flags the rest.

Solution:

  • Review the conversion preview before downloading — it shows:
    • Warnings: Properties that were approximated or changed
    • Unsupported features: Properties that have no equivalent in the target plugin
    • Errors: Critical issues that need manual attention
  • See Known Limitations for detailed plugin-specific limitations

2. Component Version Mismatch

Symptom: Converted configs reference components not available in your Minecraft version.

Cause: Some plugins use newer Minecraft component system (1.21.1+) features that may not be available on your server version.

Solution:

  • Check the Compatibility Matrix for your MC version
  • Nexo components require MC 1.21.1 - 1.21.5
  • CraftEngine components require MC 1.20.5 - 1.21.11
  • If your server is on an older version, some properties will be flagged as incompatible

3. Recipe Conversion Issues

Symptom: Recipes don’t convert correctly or are missing.

Cause: Each plugin handles recipes differently.

Solution:

  • Oraxen does not support recipes — recipes will be skipped when converting to Oraxen
  • Recipe formats vary significantly between plugins; review the output carefully
  • Consider re-creating complex recipes using the Recipe Generator

4. Custom Model Data Conflicts

Symptom: Items in-game show the wrong texture after conversion.

Cause: CustomModelData values may conflict with existing items on your server.

Solution:

  • After conversion, check that CMD values don’t overlap with other items
  • Use LK Creator’s Advanced Options to set a custom CMD range
  • Each plugin handles CMD differently — some auto-assign, others use the value you specify

5. Empty or Minimal Output

Symptom: The converted file is nearly empty or missing most configurations.

Cause: The source file may not have been recognized correctly.

Solution:

  1. Ensure you uploaded a valid YAML config file (not a resource pack ZIP)
  2. The file must be the plugin configuration file (e.g., items.yml for ItemsAdder, not config.yml)
  3. Check that the source plugin was correctly identified
  4. Try converting a single item first to verify the process works
