installation
The latest version of uEssentials is on GitHub.
2025 Update: Use TH3AL3X uEssentials version Release 1.0.28
At this time this is the only maintained branch of uEssentials. - It has been verified to work on 1/25.
- Download the latest release.
- Make sure you have RocketMod installed.
- Copy uEssentials.dll to Rocket's plugins folder, which can be found at: [Unturned Folder]/Servers/[Server Name]/Rocket/Plugins/.
- Start (or reload) the server.
version note: There is another branch of uEssentials which uses uEssentials.dll at 322.6kB and is listed as uEssentials-1.3.6.0, however, we could not get it to work. It is recommended to stick with the TH3AL3X branch as it seems to be the best maintained even though the so called version number is lower.
usage
You can use the following command(s) to see all uEssential options
/uessentials /essentials /ess
All three provide the same response. The form "ess" is abbreviated.
All uessential commands can be displayed from game chat or server console. There are 4 pages of commands that can be displayed with the following commands:
/ess commands 1 /ess commands 2 /ess commands 3 /ess commands 4
Again, the "ess" being abbreviated. There are many commands.
You can get details and syntax help on any specific command. For example, for more details on the command "maxskills" we would type:
/ess help maxskills
