# Floodgate

#### What does the plugin do?[​](https://docs.bloom.host/plugins/floodgate#what-does-the-plugin-do) <a href="#what-does-the-plugin-do" id="what-does-the-plugin-do"></a>

Floodgate allows Bedrock players to connect to Java servers running [GeyserMC](https://docs.bloom.host/plugins/geysermc), without a Java Edition account.

### Usage[​](https://docs.bloom.host/plugins/floodgate#usage) <a href="#usage" id="usage"></a>

[Download the plugin](https://ci.opencollab.dev/job/GeyserMC/job/Floodgate/job/master/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/spigot/build/libs/floodgate-spigot.jar) and upload the jar into your `plugins` folder. Restart or turn on the server. If you need help installing plugins, check out [this guide](https://docs.bloom.host/installing-plugins).

Once you've installed the plugin, you will have to modify your GeyserMC config. in `/plugins/Geyser-Spigot/config.yml` (Plugin folder may be different) set `auth-type` to `floodgate`

After that, restart your server; Bedrock players should now be able to connect to your Java server, without a Java Edition account.

#### Note: If you're using Tebex, you will have to change `username-prefix` to `*`. This is currently the only one Tebex supports, that will not cause conflicts with Java Edition accounts.[​](https://docs.bloom.host/plugins/floodgate#note-if-youre-using-tebex-you-will-have-to-change-username-prefix-to--this-is-currently-the-only-one-tebex-supports-that-will-not-cause-conflicts-with-java-edition-accounts) <a href="#note-if-youre-using-tebex-you-will-have-to-change-username-prefix-to--this-is-currently-the-only-one" id="note-if-youre-using-tebex-you-will-have-to-change-username-prefix-to--this-is-currently-the-only-one"></a>
