Aurus is a packet-based 3D menu system for modern Paper servers.<\/p>\n
It renders interactive menus directly in front of the player using fake entities and a custom camera, instead of classic chest inventories.<\/p>\n
Built for Paper 1.20+, designed to be flexible, animated, and fully configurable through YAML.<\/p>\n
## How it works<\/p>\n
When a menu is opened:<\/p>\n
– The player is mounted on an invisible camera entity
\n – Fake entities (text, items, blocks, players, mobs) are spawned via packets \u2014 only the viewer can see them
\n – A floating cursor follows the player’s head movement
\n – Clicks are detected through packet listening<\/p>\n
No inventory windows. No chest GUI. Just world-space menus.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1. Install PacketEvents 2.x on your Paper server.<\/p>\n
2. Drop [ICODE]Aurus-1.1.4-BETA.jar[\/ICODE] into your [ICODE]plugins\/[\/ICODE] folder.<\/p>\n
3. Start the server \u2014 default menus are created in [ICODE]plugins\/Aurus\/menus\/[\/ICODE].<\/p>\n
4. Open a menu in-game: [ICODE]\/au open welcome_server[\/ICODE]<\/p>\n
