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 :) )
@Liouftgoo
Sure.
BTW: It is called Cauldron now.
Can I use this plugin on MCPC+? :)
@ThaPengwin
Maybe, but the current version is shitty coded because I don't have enough time to code it well when I started this project. I planned to recode this plugin, do you have a BitBucket account?
Hey man, great plugin. Going to be pretty useful in my upcoming server :3 What I want to ask you is can I assist you in development of this plugin? I'm rather experienced in Java and especially Bukkit coding, you can check out my projects to make sure. Really hope you'll agree, I'm pretty excited about the things I could add to your plugin!
@broluigi
It IS a spec item. Only keys that are given by /lc give can be used to open crates.
can you make a different version, where the key is a special item that cant be spawned, or crafted. I am trying to make this a good voter item
@NomicCraft
They will be added later, however, if you want to change the lore and name of crates/keys, you can just simply change them by using other plugins, all you need is keep the last line of lore.
@McPixel
Examples?
@paintball89
Use v1.2.2.
@AltoGrizzlyHD
NO, Minecraft doesnt support storing data in blocks, so once you place it, all data will be lost.
add: let enchants higher then default so i can set guns in the crates such as SILK_TOUCH-200+
Does this plugin allow the crates to be placed? I want to do this so that I have all the crates in one area. Once players get keys, the go /warp crates and right clicks the crate that they have the key for. (sorry if this is not explained well, but a good example would be for obsidian prison.) To sum it all up, I just want to know if you can place the crates and players right click it with the key to get their rewards.
@ChengZi368
can you add feature per world ?
Hi, I was using LootCrates v1.2.2 and the give command wasn't working. After I type the command no crates are given to me.
Suggestions: - Config option to change mystery item from crafting (currently dirt). - Config options for changing the crate name and lore including color and formatting codes. - Changed enchantment tags in config (ex: protection:1 silkTouch:1 fireAspect:2). - Options in config to enable/disable crafting or placing types of opening crates. - Set crates down on the ground to retrieve items, the crate will disappear after use. - New command /lc rangive <crate/key> <type> [amount] [player] will give a random crate. - Make certain crates more common than others for the random give command. - Execute a command from LootCrates when another command is executed by a player.
Hi Thanks for the work your doing , But you can use command /lc give in console or in game as op ?
@boxey27
"Bound items"?, it doesn't sound like something should be in this plugin. However, it is a good idea, I might make a plugin to do that later.
Edit: Haha, its finished! Here you go: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/bound-items/
@Jonikalus
I had sent you it one day ago, didnt you recived it? Check you messages box :)
Ah, this plugin is almost exactly what i have been looking for forever. Although, i do have a suggestion, would there be anyway in the config you could add the option: Soul-Bound Lore: "&6Bound" Then whatever lore you have there so in this case &6Bound, if it is on an item that item won't drop when you die so lets say i unbox a crate called Crate 1.
Since that sword has "&6Bound" On it, when you die you respawn with it and you don't drop it. Just a suggestion, if you can add this the plugin would be perfect for what i need, if not well, i'm sure i can work something else out. As you can see it also doesn't matter what line the lore is on, as long as it is in there somewhere, also support color codes if you can.
@Dousin
I guess that use ID is ok, but not recommended.
Lists will be added later!
Additional potential bug: I found that when i add a bunch of items that the crate no longer works. I'm not sure its because their is a limit for how many items are allowed or that its some items just aren't allowed? (if i could get a reply for this it would be nice [i also understand this is in plugin is in beta and some things will be fixed/added/removed!])
A Suggestion for your plugin is allow it too use block/item id's and not just the block/item names. - You should also add a command that lets you see the list of the current crates and keys available.
Other than that its a great plugin!!!
