What's a release candidate?

This build is feature-complete and has had some feature-testing by developers, but has not been fully battle-tested by servers.
It is likely there will be no changes and this build will be promoted to the full release, but we want servers to do a final pass to see if there are any critical bugs that we have missed. Therefore, we recommend this build for testing environments (unless you have already performed your own testing and are satisfied that everything works as you expect & the experience is better than Medieval Factions 4).

Upgrading from Medieval Factions 4

If you have a Medieval Factions 4 install, replace the Medieval Factions 4 jar with Medieval Factions 5.
On the next start, Medieval Factions 5 will detect the Medieval Factions 4 config and make a backup of all of the data in mf4_backup in the data folder.
It will then proceed to generate the new config file, and shut down the server.
At this point, you should configure your database, if you have one.
If you have MySQL or MariaDB database, this should look something like:

database:
  url: 'jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/database'
  dialect: 'MYSQL'
  username: 'username'
  password: 'password'

If you do not have a MySQL database, you can ignore this, as the plugin will create an h2 file-based database in your server's working directory.

Start the server one more time, and the configuration and data from the Medieval Factions 4 backup will be migrated to your new Medieval Factions 5 install.
