secret.properties

The secret.properties file is located at:

plugins/AmongUs/secret.properties

It contains sensitive credentials required for optional plugin features such as MorphBlender.

MineSkin API Key

The mineskin property stores your API key for mineskin.org. It is required for MorphBlender skin animations and Morphling transformations. Without it, the Morphling role falls back to instant skin switching and no skins are generated dynamically.

How to Obtain an API Key

Create an account on MineSkin.
Generate a new API key in your dashboard:
- Give your key a descriptive name.
- Select “A plugin or mod asked me to create an API key”.
- Optionally, set the project link to https://github.com/Fantamomo/among-us-in-minecraft/.
Paste the key into the file:
```
mineskin=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE
```
Restart your server for the change to take effect.

Security Best Practices

What Happens If the Key Is Missing?

If mineskin is left empty, MorphBlender will not function and Morphling transformations will fall back to instant skin switching. All other plugin features will continue to work normally.
