Solved Skull Plugin

Hi,
With the 1.7.9 update how would won set the metadata of a skull? Would it be something like this?

Code:java

            ItemStack i = new ItemStack(Material.SKULL_ITEM, 1, (short) 3);
            SkullMeta meta = (SkullMeta) i.getItemMeta();
            meta.setOwner(event.getEntity().getUniqueId().toString());

 

I think it still works with the name. Try reading about the minecraft skin database.

I don't think they work. All head plugins seem to just display steve heads on 1.7.9. I believe this is because skins are now tracked via UUID's (I believe) so when a player changes his name his skin stays the sam.
I will read about the skin database and let you know how things go.

After looking into bukkit's source code, I believe they have not updated for this yet. The following code
https://github.com/Bukkit/CraftBukk...craftbukkit/inventory/CraftMetaSkull.java#L91 (Line 91-103)
Checks the playerData files with names, when it should be checking it with UUID's. So I believe this would classify as a bukkit bug.

Sorry for triple post. Just wanted to let you guys know that this bug has been fixed. They have added a fix for it in the test branch so it isn't publicly available for download yet. You can see the commit here
