Turning players into Mobs.

Hey.
Im really unsure about this subject. Ive never tried anything like this before. Is there anyway i can turn players into mobs. A good example of this is the Mob Disguise plugin.
I really need help on this and some guidance.
Thanks

 

ThatCoffeeBean You are going to have to use the Player#hidePlayer(Player); to hide the player then spawn client side mobs using packets http://wiki.vg/Protocol

 

ThatCoffeeBean Skionz Or you use the professional library that LibraryAddict made

Have you thought about decomplying Mob Disguise and seeing how they do it?

 

Thanks guys ill check it our

 

SleepyDog Can you give me a run down on what packets are. Ive heard of them but i have no idea how to use them

 

You mean packages from java coding?

 

I think he tagged the wrong person SleepyDog

 

Based around bukkit and java yea.

 

I see, @Skionz I think he meant you. (Read up)

I have never used packets but there are API's to make it easier. Search 'Bukkit Packets' in google or youtube.
