    Realtek1

    Hey MiracleM4n, I need help with installing this plugin with PermissionsBukkit and superperms because SpaceManiac told me to do this and it didn't work : I created a config file like this one (This is the one posted above)
    Code:
    da-name-format: '+prefix+group+suffix+name&e'
    date-format: HH:mm:ss
    message-format: '+prefix+group+suffix+name&f: +message'
    mchat:
        prefix:
            admin: '&4DtK [SO] &7 '
            sadmin: '&9DtK [SA] &7 '
            jadmin: '&aDtK [JA] &7  '
            member: '&cDtK [M] &7 '
        suffix:
            admin: ''
            sadmin: ''
            jadmin: ''
            member: ''
        group:
            admin: ''
            sadmin: ''
            jadmin: ''
            member: ''
    
    And then I went in game to type this command : /perm group Admin setperm mchat.prefix.Admin (SpaceManiacs told me) and then when I reload the my server....there are no colors when I type or any prefixes..

    MiracleM4n

    *Silent Update* NPE Should now be fixed (On server reload all players channels are reset to public). Realtek1: PM me I will provide more details. First try adding mchat.prefix.admin as it might check for uppercase only.

    The plugin seems to suppress chat messages to the Minecraft server log. Is that intentional?

    Also any chance for the source code? I'd fix it myself if it was available.

    Also still getting NPE errors:

    Code:
    2011-07-18 21:11:03 [SEVERE] Could not pass event PLAYER_QUIT to mChat
    java.lang.NullPointerException
        at net.D3GN.MiracleM4n.mChat.playerListener.onPlayerQuit(playerListener.java:70)

        at net.minecraft.server.ThreadServerApplication.run(SourceFile:422)
    
    Appears to be a conflict between this plugin and MessageChanger.

    This is also causing issues with one of my plugins DimensionDoor, chat messages are appearing when they should not be. Are you cancelling the event after you format the message?

    okay i have almost the same problem like him. No Output to the console, weird Chatoutput ...

    i tryd the default settings and changed the groups to our permissionbukkit groups:
    Code:
    # mChat configuration file
    #
    # Use of mchat: is only if your using PermissionsBukkit (superperms)
    # ignore it if you don't know what that is.
    # usage of message-format is restricted to:
    # +suffix,+s, +prefix,+p, +group,+g, +world,+w, +time,+t, +name,+n, +rname,+rn, +message,+m
    
    da-name-format: +p+s+dn&e
    date-format: HH:mm:ss
    message-format: '+p+s+dn&f: +message'
    mchat:
        prefix:
            default: '&cDtK [M] &7'
            newbie: '&9DtK [SA] &7'
            builder: '&aDtK [JA] &7'
            moderator: '&4DtK [SO] &7'
            admin: '&4DtK [SO] &7'

    Getting this when I reload in the console:

    It seems to work ok if I manually stop/start the server.

    Also, it appears that either the new fakey wildcard global permission (superpermbridge.*: true) and/or group inheritance is causing higher ranks to inherit all color nodes from previous ranks, causing me to have to explicitly deny them at each higher rank. By the time I get to admin, it's pretty obnoxious:

    Code:
                mchat.prefix.Admin: true
                mchat.group.Admin: true
                mchat.suffix.Admin: true
                mchat.prefix.SemiAdmin: false
                mchat.group.SemiAdmin: false
                mchat.suffix.SemiAdmin: false

    It's possible I'm not "doing it right," but without those steps it kept coloring me as a noob even if I was an admin.

    Here's my mchat config:

    Code:
    da-name-format: '+prefix+group+suffix+name&e'
    date-format: HH:mm:ss
    message-format: '+prefix+group+suffix+name&f: +message'
    mchat:
        prefix:
            Noob: '&f'
            Builder: '&f'
            Police: '&f'
            Pimpin: '&f'
            Mod: '&f'
            SemiAdmin: '&f'
            Admin: '&f'
        group:
            Noob: '[&eNoob&f]'
            Builder: '[&aBuilder&f]'
            Police: '[&dPolice&f]'
            Pimpin: '[&bPimpin&f]'
            Mod: '[&5Mod&f]'
            SemiAdmin: '[&cSemiAdmin&f]'
            Admin: '[&6Admin&f]'
        suffix:
            Noob: '&e '
            Builder: '&a '
            Police: '&d '
            Pimpin: '&b '
            Mod: '&5 '
            SemiAdmin: '&c '
            Admin: '&6 '

    ok i have it 90% fixed

    it still isnt posting to the console (this is a major problem! but not as major as the others)

    heres how i fixed it

    first something @SpaceManiac suggested
    for each group that inherits from others make sure you set the prefix to false for the inherited
    for example my admin group has
    mchat.prefix.admins: true
    mchat.prefix.trusted: false
    mchat.prefix.registered: false
    mchat.prefix.default: false

    then change the message-format: '+p+s+dn&f: +message' to message-format: '+prefix+group+suffix+name&f: +message'

    and bingo, it works perfect (apart from the fact its not posting to the console)

    @MiracleM4n can you fix the not posting to console bug it kind of makes it impossible to log player chat (for language/racisim infactions we are not wiretapping players) talk to players via remote terminals (i check up on my players at work on my phone and via putty)

    ah its worse then i thought!!! its not posting the chat to dynamic map either! (though from dynamic map to the server works)
