Awesome, thanks!

 

i dont think anyone will mind redoing the nodes (one last time) but in truth either is good so long as we can assign a node to a group and anyone in that group gets the prefixes we will all be happy

sorry for the delay in reply (dealing with nasty stuff on server and in life lol)

 

Old version of mChat (the one that had the old config style and no console errors) updated for 1240.

http://sacredlabyrinth.net/store/mChat.jar

 

This however does not work with the newer mchannel etc plugins.

 

Thanks!

 

@mrgreaper I will support the old version and work for a nodular system for the new one as well.

Thank you very much. This will save me a lot of work once i'm finished with updating frm 1000 to 1240

 

Is it just my misunderstanding, or does this plugin not show the prefix or suffix of a player who has a prefix and suffix set in permissionsex?

 

@MiracleM4n

off can you readd the permissions node for today

 

@odielag mChat uses native PEX Info support. If you want to use mChat's info.yml please turn mchat-info-only to true in the config.yml

 

i hate to say it chap, but its not showing the prefixs
my info.yml
http://pastebin.com/hz0kKrnN

a small portion of my permissions file
http://pastebin.com/4KWJ4dj5

I tried :
deleting mchat folder having it regenerate then reconfiguring
mchat-info-only: true and false

 

@mrgreaper I have not yet updated the nodes to the new system it currently is only for the old system. (Sorry for the lack of explanation)

mchat-info-only should be false
mchat-oldNodes-only should be true

 

i added the line (it wasnt thier) to the config but still no joy.... im starting to wonder if the cache on my browser ment i got an old verson...hmmm will re-download in a sec

ah your link points to number 42 dated Oct 5, 2011 5:38:47 PM ? should it of pointed to number 44 dated Oct 6, 2011 8:02:08 AM


hmmm i will test ..dear server please dont blow up please dont blow up


hmm that time when i got it to regenerate the config it made this

Code:

# mChat configuration file
#
#           **IMPORTANT**
#   usage of mchat-message-format can be, but is not limited to
#       +suffix,+s, +prefix,+p, +group,+g, +world,+w, +time,+t, +name,+n, +dname,+dn, +health,+h +healthbar,+hb, +message,+msg,+m
#       Suffix, Prefix, Group, World, Time, Player Name, Player Display Name, Health, Health Bar, Message

mchat-date-format: HH:mm:ss
mchat-join-message: has joined the game.
mchat-API-only: false
mchat-chat-distance: -1.0
mchat-oldNodes-only: true
mchat-add-info-players: false
mchat-format-events: true
mchat-name-format: +p+dn+s&e
mchat-playerEvent-format: +p+dn+s&e
mchat-kick-message: has been kicked from the game +r.
mchat-message-format: '+p+dn+s&f: +m'
mchat-info-only: false
mchat-leave-message: has left the game.

but still no go on the prefixes

 

@MiracleM4n - I am getting LOADS of errors with the newest version of mChat and the newest RB from bukkit (1240), can you please fix this? also the plugin has broken with the RB, it doesnt do anything anymore on my server except for giving errors in console.

My settings are still the same as that time you watched trough my teamviewer, and it worked back then, nothing changed except me updating CB to RB 1240 and mChat to latest version.

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

 

@Dragonslife Once the newest build is accepted there is a fix for this. --> http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/mchat/files/10-mchat-b42/

 

@MiracleM4n - ok now i'm gonna need your help, that update just changed my info.yml file and now demands from me that i configure prefix and suffix from each user manually. i tried changing some settings but it aint working, only when i manually edit settings for each user specific, it works.

 

@Dragonslife Turn mchat-info-only to false and change mchat-oldNodes-only to true.

 

still cant get the tags to work...i need to give up for the day though lol
tried Turn mchat-info-only to false and change mchat-oldNodes-only to true. no go sorry chap

 

@MiracleM4n - Changed it, didnt work... I changed the things you said, then restored my old info.yml file and it still editted my info.yml file and still requires me to manually configure each user.

@MiracleM4n - you wanna have a look yourself trough teamviewer? still have the ID?

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

 

@mrgreaper Are you using the old methods?

Code:

mchat:
    info:
        Var: ''
        prefix: ''

^^^^ Those are the ones that work with mchat-oldNodes-only

Shit.... I found the problem. I will reup what I have now and make it a RB for everyone.

is how we have it at mo is that wrong?


hmmm that is different to our old backups

our old one looked like this

Code:

# mChat Info config

mchat:

        gm: '&e Order of the Mushroom &4'
        restricted: 'Restricted '

        worlds:
            DtK:
                prefix: '&3DtKTest2'

 

@mrgreaper That is the new way that does not involve permissions nodes.

 

@MiracleM4n - To be honest i prefer the old one it works! xD and better, nothing needs to be added.. it includes everything we need thats also why it is a great plugin. It's better just to keep it simple and easy than to add stuff that makes it harder to understand ... and as just everything works with permissions, i think it might just be the easiest thing to also let this use permissions

 

i tried .....

Code:

# mChat Info config
mchat:
    prefix:
        vip: '&2 VIP &7'
        gm: '&e Order of the Mushroom &4'
        restricted: 'Restricted '
        admins: '&4 ADMIN &4'
        default: 'Unregistered '
        registered: '&b Registered &7'
        lombuilders: '&2 LomBuilders &7'

i have to say im now 100% lost lol i really love the censor ship addition but i cant figure out where im going wrong to readd the nodes for prefixes

need coffee
need food maybe then i can sus it

 

@mrgreaper The next build will fix any problems....I hope.

 

Ehm.
When people write /god or even god in any word it get replaced with MiracleM4nt....
Wtf man, this was scetchy.

 

Hey @MiracleM4n
I've been out of the realm of Minecraft for quite some time, due to various things happening. This also includes servers. I have one question... Will you support ALL of your plugins until Minecraft is fully released? I've grown quite pissed with updating EVERY SINGLE PLUGIN that i have on my server, and quite frankly, i don't have the time. I've decided to wait until the release date of Minecraft to set up my server. So, please keep updating your plugin until Minecraft is released, until then, see you starside, and to you sir.

Hah... Well... not really, i might spend some time setting my server up once i get my 8GB RAM PC. If i do, then i'll be needing some help from you. (Trollface)

 

look at your config files lol
one called censor for example

I love the new censor function it will allow us to drop chat sentry

Oh and we changed god for Tac (my cat says god backwards is a bad word)

 

@_Zw_ Check the censor.yml
