Chest Open Animation

How would I do the chest open animation and keep it open like this?


Much Appreciated

 

http://bukkit.org/threads/make-a-chest-like-its-open.153414/ If that doesn't work, you may need to use packets.

Yeah, I tried that. It makes a some what thump sound instead of what it was said of doing. I saw one thread that it can be done by using PacketPlayOutBlockAction, I'm just checking to make sure there is no other way.

@Jaaakee224 From what I know, that's the way to do it.

You can either do it with the packet or use the method of the NMS world class. I just played around with that and found out how to do it:

Code:

    public static void playChestAction(Chest chest, boolean open) {
        Location location = chest.getLocation();
        World world = ((CraftWorld) location.getWorld()).getHandle();
        BlockPosition position = new BlockPosition(location.getX(), location.getY(), location.getZ());
        TileEntityChest tileChest = (TileEntityChest) world.getTileEntity(position);
        world.playBlockAction(position, tileChest.w(), 1, open ? 1 : 0);
    }

BlockPosition isn't an import?

So you have to use the craftbukkit jar.

@nverdier
Yeah, I just tried that. No dice.

@Jaaakee224 What version are you using? My method only works for 1.8!

 

@Jaaakee224 in 1.7 BlockPostition are locations

 

@DarkBladee12
Is there a way to do this in 1.7?

 

@Jaaakee224 Are you trying to make mineplex treasure chests?

Somewhat, yes. For now, I am trying to add the chest open animation to a current project I am working on.
