LootCrates
This project will be inactive and won't work for 1.8 servers until I finished the recoding.
Development Builds
Quote from the developer chengzi368:Development builds of this project can be acquired at the provided continuous integration server. These builds have not been approved by the BukkitDev staff. Use them at your own risk!
Features
A simple plugin that allows you to open crates. Unlike SurpriseEggs, it allows you to use keys to open crates. Also, it allows players to uncrate in their own inventory without any command, and gives players only one item per crate, like TF2 and CS:GO.
- It also support random items from MythicDrops and CrackShot!

Auto-Updater
This plugin contains an auto-updater to check updates and notify you in order to make sure you are using the newest, not buggy version. However if you want to disable this feature for some reasons, you can set checkUpdate to false in plugins/LootCrates/config.yml.
Metrics
This plugin utilises Hidendra's plugin metrics system, which means that the following information is collected and sent to mcstats.org:
- A unique identifier
- The server's version of Java
- Whether the server is in offline or online mode
- The plugin's version
- The server's version
- The OS version/name and architecture
- The core count for the CPU
- The number of players online
- The Metrics version
Opting out of this service for this plugin can be done by editing plugins/LootCrates/config.yml and changing useMetrics to false.
TODO List
- Drop crates to online players randomly. (Maybe in v1.3.0)
Broadcast to online players after somebody opened a crate.(In v1.2.0)

Other Plugins
- SurpriseEggs - Another awesome crate plugin, but allows bigger inventory for every "eggs".
- BetterPositionTP - A better way to travel around the world(jk, but it is simple and useful).
- LootBox - An alternative, similar plugin. (It isnt my plugin however, just a suggestion :) )
Big news!!!
Lootcrates 1.2.0 is coming! It support multi-type crates and keys! Also, it uses workbench gui to un-crates, and it should be less buggy and faster!
EDIT: The new version will release as soon as I got the permission from the lib's author.
@delsolsi213
I will looking into that and see what can I do..
It should be less buggy if uses crafting table.
EDIT:
Currently I have no idea how to do that, if anybody knows it, feel free to pm me or post here!@ChengZi368
instead of making it so they need to use a furnace why not make it so they put the crate and key on the crafting table and it shows a Myserty dirt block int he output, and when a player clicks it it gives you the random item?
@paintball89
Thanks! It will be included in
v1.0.3Beta v1.1.1.EDIT: However, using id 34 as crates is impossible, because of Minecraft's limitation(it seems will crash the server).
if you are planing on just one type. "Crate" & "Crate Key" or just plan "Key"
had a another idea for the item look more of a create look item id: 34 (Piston (Head))
@paintball89
Do you have any suggestion what should the item be named?
@paintball89
I currently have no plan to add any features that many plugins have.
But custom name on the crates/ keys will be added in next version.
another suggestion add a "/lc open" command to open virtual furnace.

Quote (Different lore's items cant mix together..
edit: Also, you can use other plugin to change the crates' name and lore(but you have to keep the last line same). It is fine and edited crates will still works.)
can't be bothered :|
most plugins like this in terms of naming special items such as example "crackshot" how you spawn a item in it has a new name not just lore. it looks goofy with standard name and lore only that's why i asked as a suggestion add a few lines of code and implement that feature.

edit: Also, you can use other plugin to change the crates' name and lore(but you have to keep the last line same). It is fine and edited crates will still works.
suggestion: rename the items name not the lore only. my players are getting items mixed up can't tell the difference.
I Loveeeeeeeeeeeed it
@ChengZi368
ok thanks, id like to use this for voting!
I'll upload some pictures about this plugin later :)
EDITED: Uploaded.
@PickaxeJunky
Oh, It has infact. However, because of a bug, it doesn't works in console. You need to download v1.0.1
(Which has been uploaded but not been approved by bukkit admins for unknown reasons), it fixed that.Hello, im wanting to use this for a donating and voting reward but i cant use it for voting since it dosent have console commands, could you add a console command like /lc give <user> crate/key <amount>? this would help loads since i like the idea of this plugin.
It seems a bukkit admin had changed status of LootCrates v1.0.1 to Under Review, I have no idea why and recived no pm from admins, so the download won't be available atm.Already had been approved.
@ReeferX7
Nice ideas!
You can take a look of SurpriseEggs ATM(Not atm, even SurpriseEggs doesnt have, because I haven't finished v2.0), it has all features you want, because it could take some time to implement them into LootCrates.About the shops... Why not just use BossShop or ServerShop-gui? I thought they are mature.
@ReeferX7
those are awesome ideas i would love them.
@ChengZi368
Hey good idea this plugin, i have some more Suggestions:
for my opinion remove furnage and add just right click to open crates materials,
add economy support, add support to run commands from crates like Metarial: DIamond rewards: command: manuadd {player} vip for some chances,
other cool feature is creates shop example open gui with crates and players can buy it with 1 crate point example command /crate balance - /crate shop!
sorry for my english..
