Download CoreProtect 1.21.10

updated 8th Dec, 2025 for 1.21.10

Tutorial of Downloading and Building the CoreProtect Plugin

This tutorial will explain from nothing how to build/create the CoreProtect plugin or 1.21.10 from it's source code on GitHub.

I am assuming you don't know anything and don't have anything installed and are using a Windows device.

Prerequisites

Watch these tutorial videos (very short).

Start Compiling

  • Right click the "Start" or "Windows" icon on your taskbar.

  • Click "Command Prompt".

  • Type the following commands.

cd Desktop
git clone https://github.com/PlayPro/CoreProtect.git

AFTER USING GIT CLONE

You need to go to Desktop\CoreProtect\pox.xml Right click the file, click Open With > Notepad.

Change <project.branch></project.branch> to <project.branch>developer</project.branch>

In the same Command Prompt window, type the following:

cd CoreProtect
mvn clean install

i_am_not_paying_for_your_patreon_to_get_builds_for_open_source_code_3

This process will take a while. You should see [INFO] BUILD SUCCESS when it is complete.

The plugin jar will be outputted in the FOLDER NAME\target\CoreProtect-version.jar

Do not use the .jar labelled "original".

I am not paying for your patreon for builds to open source. Thank you & have an amazing day! Be cautious of build download links under this comment section!

1.21.11 -> https://ci.ecocitycraft.com/job/CoreProtect/51/

TLDR this is a fake v23.3 version and FALSE ADVERTISING This is not the v23.3 build that is on patreon and works with 1.21.11. The version of the build has been modified to correspond to 23.3 but is in fact version v23.1 without .11 support or bug fixes. (It may work on 1.20.11. But does NOT SUPPORT it because the latest patches were gatekept by developer and were not published to community edition repo)

Refer to this link for the actual premium prebuilt version v23.3 which supports 1.21.11 Coreprotect v23.3 Patched.jar

Lmao no build log, no public repo? Yes trust this malicious build quite literally from a random dude on GitHub over our legit build. Hilarious. Stop spreading infected crap.

DON'T TRUST ME, Decompile my prebuilt jar, check for backdoors/viruses/suspicious behaviour YOURSELF. There is no obfuscation at all, all code is plainly visible after decompilation. Check it out. You will find it to be completely clean if you do.

I recommend that you join the official CoreProtect discord, the build instructions are posted there and this is where you can find the updated steps.

Taken from discord:

Compilation instructions:
Install Maven and Java 25 if you don't have it already
Linux: sudo apt install maven (or whatever package manager you have )
Windows: Watch this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEphzGQz-nI
Check with mvn --version that it's installed, and using java 25

Download the source code
You can download the zip manually from GitHub, under the green button labelled "<> Code".
After downloading it, extract it.
Or if you have git with git clone https://github.com/playPro/coreProtect

Open the CoreProtect folder you just created

Set the branch to development
Locate the "pom.xml" file, and open it with a text editor.
Locate where it says<project.branch></project.branch>
Set it to be <project.branch>development</project.branch>

ONLY IF YOU NEED 26.1 SUPPORT:
Navigate to src/main/java/net/coreprotect/config/
Open the "ConfigHandler.java" file with a text editor
On line 56, set the LATEST_VERSION string to 26.1.2
It should look like this: public static final String LATEST_VERSION = "26.1.2";

Open a terminal in the coreprotect folder
On windows you can click the explorer path bar and type cmd, this will open a command prompt at the location.
Please note you have to be in the CoreProtect folder, not any subfolder, not the external folder either
If you are on Linux i assume you know how to do this

In the terminal run the command mvn clean install

If you see a class file has wrong version error, it means you have not installed java 25. Install it and make sure to change your environment variable for JAVA_HOME. Check again with mvn --version

You should now find "CoreProtect-23.2.jar" in the target/ folder.

Note:
While the file will say it's 23.2, it is functionally equivalent to the 24.0 Patreon version, and will work in 26.1 and 26.1.2 (if you changed the files).

I never said I wrote those steps myself, how am I supposed to know the discord author's github handle?

all your comments on this issue bring absolutely nothing to the subject, maybe you should just mind your own business
