Inactive [MECH/FUN/RPG] DarkBrotherhood v1.5.1 - climb walls, assassinate players, and more![1060]

That's even better

How will the lock pick work?

after reading the ''to do'' list, this plugin is just getting cooler and cooler

permission support for permissions 3+?

No plugin developers as a whole are trying to convert to the Bukkit integrated permission system... sorry.

You must be holding the lock pick item (by default string, configurable) You hava a configurable chance of picking a lock and if you fail you take a configurable amount of damage. (As soon as Spout gets far enough for me to implement this I want to do a fallout-style lock pick minigame).

By the time I'm done with this plugin it is going to be feature-packed.

No, I meant support for the plugin Permissions 3.1.6, http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/admn-dev-permissions-3-1-6-the-plugin-of-tomorrow-935.18430/ , not the normal bukkit permissions.

I would really need this plugin for my server, so I would appreciate it

i use the same permission plugin, so i would lilke that too

The same thing still applies we are trying to convert to the Bukkit-integrated permissions and not use third-party solutions such as Permissions 3.x. I already have support for Bukkit-integrated permissions though.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but your plugin isn't initiating for some reason. It's in the right place and I restart the server and reload plugins but I get the following error:

Is this something I havent' done right? Thanks for your help,
~Longeye~

According to the error log it is zipped... Seeing that I nor anyone but you has reported this problem I'm assuming you did something wrong. No clue what though. Download latest version and move it to the plugin directory replacing whatever you have there. Hopefully that will fix it.

That's exactly what I thought; it can't be zipped because it's just a jar file
But it's doing it on a redownload as well... Well this is obviously something wrong at my end (something really strange), so I'll see what I can do. Thanks anyway, I didn't think you would know what was wrong (the whole zip thing) but I thought it worth a shot
Regardless it looks like a great plugin so if I can get it up I'll let you know how it plays!
Thanks,
~Longeye~

I know that zip and jar archives are remarkably similar in structure did you try unarchiving it using say winrar and then re-compressing it to a jar?

Emm download link does not seem to work...

i tried it just as i read you're commment, works fine for me...

Lol sorry, just realized its called 'darkbrotherhood' not brotherhood... Looking in wrong section

Lol np. I mess that up all the time too.

Integrating this on my server Thanks! I also have a question for you. I'm going to start developing sometime soon (I hope!) and would like to know how your plugin knows when it's a hit from behind. Does it have to do with the camera or hitboxes? Thanks

No problem! Nice feel free to ask me any questions for the plugin your developing and for this plugin I use the vectors that the players are facing.

Hmm. Never thought of that, thought it was much harder xD How do you get the vectors btw? Something to do with the camera?
Thanks again

It would be entity.getLocation().getDirection();
What are you making? P.S. If you use any code or anything I give you (assuming it's more than a few trivial snippets) please add a shout-out to me on the plugin thread

Not making anything right now, as I have to get a 64 bit PC or better . Java SDK is no longer supported (or available, far as I can see) for 32 bit systems. I plan on starting off with a simple MC plugin to grab a feel for Java. Then, I'll scan the forums for requests and see what I can do . Thanks for the help thus far, I'll ask if I bump into something

Hmm really I swear there is a 32 bit version out there.... P.S. if you ever write Java code I recommend doing it in NetBeans (google it).

There was... they took it down Googling NetBeans now.

EDIT:
Mhm... Java programming, with a twist Seems really nice, gonna give it a shot when I start programming. Thanks

Thinking I might have a look at this Netbeans myself, been a while since I've done any JAVA, actually miss it...

Most my server plugs depend on Permissions 3.x. I'd really like to use this plugin, but I can't unless it's for that permissions system. Please support it!

I can understand wanting a lot of people to switch to Bukkit default permissions, but at this time, there are SO many other plugins that depends on Permissions 3.x. I'm sure it would help a lot of people if you supported both.

Yeah, that's why I just made it OP only on my server. When more plugins switch over to Bukkit's permission system, I'll switch over, but at least 90% of my server's plugins still run on Permissions 3.x, though I frankly wouldn't mind all...Four...people on my server being able to use it without being OPs, lol.

Won't be using until it supports Permissions 3.x. Nice concept I suppose.

I know personally I would love to support permissions 3.x but I feel that Bukkit as a whole needs to migrate to super perms. Permissions is the beginning but super perms seem to be the direction that Bukkit is headed in.

I completely agree, but in the interm don't you think it would benefit to have both? I run Heroes and it only supports Perm 3.x. Heroes is the backbone of my server so I have to use perm 3.x

Also, thanks for responding

But if everybody supports both and some people only support perm3 then what's the point of moving to the Bukkit version?
