A GIFT'S JOURNEY

How a gift reaches the game

Four stops, in under a second.

  1. A viewer sends a gift

    From TikTok, Twitch, Kick, YouTube or Starvios: a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.

  2. OverInteractive

    Receives the event, checks your active profile for the matching effect and sends it.

  3. Server + plugin

    The app sets up a Minecraft server on your PC with the OverInteractive plugin, which runs every effect.

  4. Minecraft Java

    You join that server from your usual launcher and the effects land on you in real time.

STEP BY STEP

Getting started

Everything happens from the game's status bar, at the bottom of the app.

  1. 1

    Install the server

    Press «Install server» in the bar below and pick the Minecraft version (1.21.11, the recommended one, comes preselected) and RAM. The app downloads the server, the Java it needs and the plugins that let any game version join.

  2. 2

    Install the mod

    Press «Install mod»: it drops the OverInteractive plugin inside the server.

  3. 3

    Start the server

    Press «Start». Once it is up, the bar shows its address with a button to copy it.

  4. 4

    Join from Minecraft

    Open Minecraft Java → Multiplayer → Add Server (or Direct Connection), paste the address and press Join.

  5. 5

    Choose what each gift does

    In «Profiles» create an example one or build your own. For matches with rules, check the «Minigames» tab: each one comes with a ready profile.

EFFECTS

What your chat can do

Each effect is assigned to a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.

Mobs

Zombies, creepers, wardens, allied wolves… they spawn next to you with the viewer's name on top.

Items

They gift you diamonds, armor, tools or food.

Effects and enchantments

Speed, levitation, blindness, poison and enchantments on whatever you hold.

Your player

Health, hunger, experience, teleports, launching you into the air, emptying your inventory and more.

World

Day or night, storms, lightning, low or zero gravity and time frozen or sped up.

Blocks

TNT, TNT rain, lava under your feet, obsidian boxes, falling anvils and pits opening up.

Minigames

Battle Royale, races, break the block and more: full matches chat controls. They have their own tab.

IMPORTANT

Before you go live

You play on the app's server

Effects only work inside the server the app sets up, not in your singleplayer worlds or public servers.

With friends or viewers

From «Server» you can open it to your local network or the Internet. Over the Internet only players you invite get in (or whoever types the code in chat, if you enable it), without showing your IP or opening ports.

Player NPCs in Battle Royale

Player-shaped fighters only exist on versions 1.21.4, 1.21.11, 26.1 and 26.2. On other versions they will be regular mobs.

Minigame versions

Every minigame runs on server versions 1.21.4 through 26.2. Older versions won't start them. Each minigame lists its compatible versions on its page.

Nothing gets lost

If the plugin is disconnected for a moment, effects wait in a queue and are delivered when it comes back.

FAQ

No. The server ships ViaVersion and ViaBackwards, so you can join with newer or older versions.
