DeathMsg
DeathMsg 5.7
For months i had searched for a plugin that helped with death messages. I had found some but they weren't exactly what i was looking for. They either showed the display name which makes it look horrible with colors or didn't show the item someone killed you with. Some death messages also did not make sense. I believe that a good death message plugin should have all that. And quite frankly, there aren't really any death message plugins out there for 1.3.1. Therefore, i created this one. It has all i wanted from a death message plugin. It has default messages that make sense. YOU CAN ACTUALLY TELL HOW THEY DIED!! It also has colored death messages and a really good kill message. One of the only plugins that disables death drops for specified worlds! Has the ability to disable death messages altogether! I recommend this for all servers. Ever since heroic death became outdated, i searched for a good death message plugin and my journey ends here. If you too have been on that search, CONGRATULATIONS! you reached the end. Thank you.

You can also tell me if you like the plugin (As a developer, a simple thanks means a lot)
More Death Message Sets!
READ THIS! Since a lot of people have been asking for the ability to configure messages and i haven't fully done that yet, i have made a temporary compromise. The "deathmsg: 2" in the configuration has different configurations for death messages. When set to 2, it displays the previous death messages i have added when someone dies. When set to 1, it displays the default minecraft death messages but with colors. I plan on adding more configurations for you guys to use. After i do that, i will add the ability to change individual death messages. Therefore, tell me messages you would want added into the next configuration, 3. To see the configurations, go to the configuration link and it will show you.
Suggestions
Suggest things! Suggest death message sets! Suggest future features or plans! Suggest anything! I will most likely add it if its a death message set.

Finally getting back to you. Dont know if its too late. Maybe its because you dont have java 7?
Im not sure but ill look into the logging of death messages
I like it, but I would like to be able to edit the messages! Also would it be possible to have the death messages logged in the console? (I am having to use another plugin for this).
Thanks!
So, please work on it. Thanks! :)
That is the plan.
Hey, super plugin, but better will be whne we can translate the messages to our languages, so please can u do it? Just add that we can adit the messages, Thanks :)

Any ideas? sorry for huge message, this is just perfect for me though. Also does it change the other messages e.g: fell out of world
You should add a feature that lets you make custom messages.
No. I have 3 plugins so far. This is my seecondary plugin. My main one is khskills and my other one is donatefeat(which was made in an hour)
Is this your first plugin?
Ill get that done soon. Hopefully.
Is there a way to make you own custom messages? I would love it if you put that in.
There isn't one yet but I plan on doing it.
Is there any configuration? Still like it though. There aren't many of these, especially this good.
@davidrosales
Thanks a lot for your response. Turns out Grief Prevention has fully replaced worldguard for my purposes anyway, so that won't be an issue at all.
The plugin automatically removes the default ones and replaces them. I'm not sure if world guard would remove them because I haven't tried it although there is no need to disable them through worldguard.
