[CHAT] ColorMe (Changed ownership), read first post

I run a dedicated server; the plug-in allows me to change my name but not others. Any clue as to why?

Edit: I can manually change name colors by modifying the player.colors file, though the command still doesn't work to change other names.

It should be ignoring capitals and numbers shouldn't be making any difference.

I have a kid with an "_" on my server. Is it possible to add a fix for people who have underscores in their names? everyone else on my server's works just fine

Hmm, I wouldn't think that would make a difference..but I'll come up with something that should fix that problem.

i didn't think so either, but that is my only explanation thanks

I don't know how I'm really gonna test against that, but I think I'll just have it remove any "_" if it sees them just like how it makes Capitals lowercase so it doesn't have to worry about possible capitalization errors when typing a user's name and doesn't force the user to use capitals since it takes longer.

seems to be working fine now just for the odd player i have to add their name into it through notepad idk y but thanks for plug in A++, i chat sucks

not possible to change over head names, based on skin

I always get this error on MineOS while starting up my server, this is the only plugin affected:

Code:

I'll do a quick export and test then update the JAR just to be sure it's not an error on my end.

Ok, download the JAR again and make sure you're using a recommended build to be sure it'll work right.

I have re downloaded the jar but I seem to still get the same error message.

What version of CraftBukkit are you running? I bet it's on an unsupported version.

0.0.0 build 443

The number in the thread title in the [] is the build you need to use at minimum. Your MineOS is outdated in the craftbukkit version it uses. Actually, it's about 100 versions behind, you need to update to at least 493 or higher.

Oh. Now I understand, thanks kind sir. I know it's not the correct place to be asking, but do you have any experience with MineOS?

I do not. I do things the hard way by using a script to launch the server through Terminal (command prompt) depending on what version of CraftBukkit I want to use for plugin testing.

Thanks anyways for all of your help. Will get this updated so we can test out your mod, sounds great!

Awesome, glad that you're excited!

Same thing happens here, on RB #531, other op-only plugins work just fine :\

Maybe it's conflicting?

So.. i downloaded the plugin and its working great! The only thing im having trouble with is that i cannot color users that are new to the server. Only people on the color list i can change, and to put them on the list i have to first make them op, have them do it once, de op them and then i can change it.

Also, if you could list the commands that you use for the colors, cause right now i've only been able to figure out Yellow, Black, Blue and Green. I kind of wanted the grey color but that didnt seem to work...

/colorme list for list of colors.

What would it be conflicting with? i mean i can set my own color just fine, just not other players' color

Only an OP can color another user, so if you're not OP you can't color someone else. I've done testing myself and coloring someone else works fine.

See the "Citizens" plugin, I think it spawns fake players and it can color their above-head nicknames.

That's because it gives them a default skin. You can change it using a hacky way of doing so, but it removes the player's skin in the process. Until there's a way to do it without removing a player's skin, I wouldn't suggest any developer to do this.

Oh, it basically renames it to "(colorcode)Player" ? Yeah that would kinda be bad...

Yeah, and it actually removes their skin too making them look like they have the default skin which means everyone would look the same. We're hoping Notch makes it a server-side thing instead of a client-side thing so we can change it.

I just installed this on my server and when typing /colorme lsit nothing happens. Any suggestions?

Hmm, make sure you're using a recommended build of at least 527 and you have to be an OP or have the config changed to OP=false. Then try just typing /colorme and see if it returns a list of commands.
