A *mildly stupid* problem and solution to patch legacy minecraft bukkit/spigot/paper jars

Step 1: Get software

Get the original vanilla minecraft server.jar and get the paper.jar in the same version (e.g. 1.8.8). I recommend using this service but proceed with caution as it technically goes against ToS of MC: https://jars.vexyhost.com/

Step 2: Patching

Instead of letting paper try to download from aws we will redirect it to our server.jar
