[INACTIVE][CHAT] Basic Name Changer [677]

I'm currently restoring my websites onto a new server. I haven't had the time to bring that one up.

 

so about my issue....

 

You were not an OP.

 

Been looking for this for a while, but two problems:

1) When users log out then in, they seem to not be keeping the changed name. Any tips?

2) We use HeroChat. While the display name is changed, we can still only /tell to the original account name. Any ideas?

 

1) That's odd, what cb version are you using?
2) This is not handled by this plugin, we only make use of the display name feature in bukkit. This would be a missing feature / bug in bukkit itself.

 

hey, everything works fine, just that if i put any character of the username caps, i get an exception

Also, i would like to have a look at the source, please restore the link.

I want to suggest a feature: make it possible to change the display name as "nick(username)" or maybe a customizable format, so that we know the real username.
It's hard to manage users when we dont know their usernames

Thanks!

The links will be restored in due time, I'm just running a bit behind in school and it's delaying my updates on anything I've worked on. This weekend will be my big do-everything-at-once weekend.

I do not think it is possible to use parenthesis in names due to the limitation by Minecraft. I can make a /rn (reveal name) command, if that would make it any easier.

Could you please post the exact command you're trying to do?

 

/nick AnyUsername whateverNickname (gives exception)
/nick anyusername whateverNickname (works perfectly)

So, from my tests, only when i type in the name of the user with caps (i can type in without caps, and it will work)
the nickname doesnt matter (caps or not)

Oh and if the username has already been registered before with non-caps, caps will work (donno why)

 

I've uploaded a new version, try it now.

The help page goes to a 404 not found. I just need to know the permission node to let people set their own nicks.

 

People cannot set their own nicks. This is not a feature as of yet, and I find it to be a issue with keeping track of players, and impersonation of others.

 

Since the server is down, could u put the permission node to set nicks in the OP?
Kind of in the middle of transitioning server, and could really use it, if anyone knows it off the top of their head
-thanks in advance

 

Permissions are not integrated...

 

So is it impossible to change the name above the player?

 

I'm not 100% sure it's impossible, as I've seen other developers say it is, I don't believe anything is impossible, it just is more difficult than they wish it would be. However, with the current setup, it is not possible to do with hooks. I'll look into the craftbukkit source and minecraft server source to see if there's anything we can request as a change.

 

Awesome thanks a lot. If you get anyhting or figure it out or whatever please shoot me a pm.

Thanks.

 

Hmmm. Both links are broken for me please help!

 

I'm having some server issues.

 

I have found two bugs.
If someone is not online and one tries to use it this error report is given:
[SEVERE] null

And if one renames someone while they are on the server it correctly renames them and produces the right files but gives this error:

Unable to create plugins/namechanger/names.db

Other than that it's all fine.

 

Can you get your server online? If not then please pass me a copy of the source for this plugin
my email:

Code:

[email protected]

Thanks

 

You apparently don't know how to click on a link, sorry but I'm not wasting my time emailing someone who doesn't have the time to try and click a link.

A FYI to those who are getting errors, I have not updated any of my plugins for 733 yet. I've been busy with state testing and will get things updated ASAP

 

.... your servers are down.

"404 Not Found

The server can not find the requested page:

projects.xenustats.com/p/NameChanger/src/1.0.1/ (port 80)
Please forward this error screen to projects.xenustats.com's WebMaster."​

http://bamboo.pwnage.me/ reports:
Bad Gateway

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.

Oh and by the way
did you even read what i said?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

I see. Thank you. The errors are not game breaking, they merely clog the screen up is all.

 

I have a suggestion
Could you make it so it remembers the nickname when you log out so it is already there when you log in?

 

It does...

 

So... is your server back up? I'm so curious about your source code

 

A few questions:

Does this work in accordance with HeroChat?
Will this work on the latest builds of Bukkit?
Do the nicknames stay even if somebody logs out and back in?

 

This has been discontinued, as I do not quite care to update this, and there is another solution available (by a developer with more time).

 

What is the other solution? I am really looking for a good namechanger plugin. This one looked excellent :/

 

WHY! WHY IS THIS INACTIVE!
