Block Break Particle Effect With Different Particles Than Block Type?

I want to make a piece of red wool play a particle effect (block break effect) of white wool. Is this possible?

I know it is possible to play a white wool particle effect on white wool but I was just curious if I could change this. Thanks in advance!

 

Ok, sorry if theres a MUCH better way to do this, but:

You could always try to use packets. I suck with packets, but you could probably send a packet for Particles at a location (whitewool).

 

Hmm okay. Not really sure how to go about this with packets either. Especially changing the block type of the particle effect.

 

Code:java

public void sendBlockBreakParticles(Player p, ItemStack i)
{
    Packet60WorldEvent packet = new Packet60WorldEvent(2001, x, y, z, i.getTypeId(), false);
    ((CraftPlayer)p).getHandle().netServerHandler.sendPacket(packet);
}

 

Alternatively, if you wanted everyone within range to see it, rather than just the one player, you could use

Code:

Location loc;
((CraftServer)Bukkit.getServer()).getServer().getServerConfigurationManager().sendPacketNearby(loc.getX(), loc.getY(), loc.getZ(), 64, ((CraftWorld) loc.getWorld()).getHandle().dimension, packet);

fireblast709 has the packet correct, so see his post for that.

 

Thanks but is this supposed to be packet61 ? It cannot find a packet60... (from fireblast709 code)

This code throws errors

Code:

public void playBlockBreakEffect(Location loc, int blockTypeID){
    Packet61WorldEvent packet = new Packet61WorldEvent(2001, loc.getBlockX(), loc.getBlockY(), loc.getBlockZ(), blockTypeID);
    for(Player p : loc.getWorld().getPlayers()){
            ((CraftPlayer)p).getHandle().netServerHandler.sendPacket(packet);
      }
}

Malikk

I keep getting an error at 2nd line. (although it compiles fine)

Code:

public void playBlockBreakEffect(Location loc, ItemStack blockTypeID){
Packet61WorldEvent packet = new Packet61WorldEvent(2001, loc.getBlockX(), loc.getBlockY(), loc.getBlockZ(), blockTypeID.getTypeId());
((CraftServer)Bukkit.getServer()).getServer().getServerConfigurationManager().sendPacketNearby(loc.getX(), loc.getY(), loc.getZ(), 300, ((CraftWorld) loc.getWorld()).getHandle().dimension, packet);
}

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? It compiles fine but when I try to execute it I get an internal error exception.

Here is the error.

You're sure the bukkit version you compile against matches the craftbukkit version running at the server you are testing this? If so eclipse (or whatever IDE you use) should give you errors.

 

Yeah, it should be 61. And add a boolean false as the last param creating your packet, that was added in a recent update, although your ide should be telling you that, as violator said.

You realize that the step sound effect doesn't do this at all, right? He wants the block break particles, which is completely separate. It's easily sent through packets.

Works alright for me. I'll send you a sceenshot if you don't believe me?

I don't think this is possible with redwool?

The packet thing kept throwing an error even though it compiled fine in Eclipse with no errors but the Effect.step_sound does in fact do what I want. Although I dont know how to incorporate blocks with extra data (such as red wool) with this. If anyone can figure that out that would be awesome. But other than that I think I am all set on this. Thanks a lot all of you.

 

If STEP_SOUND does this go fill a bug report as it should make (as the name states) a sound, not a particle effect.

//EDIT: Indeed it's a bukkit bug. Bukkit uses effect ID 2001 for step sound, which is the block break particle effect. You really should report this telling them to change the name (seems like you can't send a step sound with this method at all anymore).

 

I was speaking with Amaranth and this is most definitely not possible, nor is any item with metadata. So my suggestions would be this:

player.getWorld().playEffect(player.getLocation(), Effect.STEP_SOUND, Material.REDSTONE.getId());
//Very similar with the red particles from red wool.

 

You do know that using redstone with playEffect() now causes all players to crash? Or if your playing the effect from player.playEffect() it crashes that player?

in 1.4.5 anyway.

 

Gawdzahh and how would it crash you? any errors?

 

No console errors at all, Just crashes the player with the client error code.

Looks like null at a Render class.

yep NPE. And what is the code you are trying?

 

your not meant to contact it directly from the player. you need to get the world. player.getWorld().playEffect(etc)

 

then why can you do it ;3

 

you need to get the world first

 

Wasn't the problem, It was simply because i was using Material.REDSTONE instead of Material.REDSTON_WIRE
Haha

 

Your meant to use red stone not redstone wire

 

With the packages is the sound still not gone. :/

 

how can i make a trail of that?

 

I updated the code to the recent build:

Code:java

public static final void playBlockBreakParticles(final Location loc, final Material m) {
        playBlockBreakParticles(loc, m, Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers());
    }
 
    public static final void playBlockBreakParticles(final Location loc, final Material m, final Player... players) {
        @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
        Packet61WorldEvent packet = new Packet61WorldEvent(2001, loc.getBlockX(), loc.getBlockY(), loc.getBlockZ(), m.getId(), false);
        for(final Player p : players) {
            ((CraftPlayer)p).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(packet);
        }
    }

 

I am trying to make it so when I hit a player it will show the redstone dust breaking particles. I am on 1.7.9 and I have tried world.playEffect(entity.getLocation(), Effect.STEP_SOUND, Material.REDSTONE.getId()); but it doesn't work. I do not really understand the Packets stuff so if someone could help me on that or give me a simpler code to use I would appreciate it.

 

ClassifiedLife
Talk about necro..., anyways the packets have changed since 1.6. All the code here that is based on packets won't work.

As for your code, that only displays the particles of a block, so you would need to do Material.REDSTONE_BLOCK.

I used the id 55 and it worked.

Nice! If this thread is closed, mark it as solved please.
