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 :) )
LootCrates v1.0.1 (Alpha 2) has been approved!
@mage1d
Items in the crate are already configurable, aren't it? get crates and keys randomly will be added in about v1.1.0 I guess...
However, about MySQL.. I never code anyplugin that uses MySQL.. It must take a lot of time to do it... Meh.. I didn't get what is "a GUI that shows how many crates/keys the player has/owns", can you explain it? Thank for your suggestion.
Heres a massive suggestion. Make it so players can get crates and keys randomly from playing on the server (MySQL, Config) Configurable items in the crate, and a GUI that shows how many crates/keys the player has/owns
LootCrates v1.0.0 (Alpha 1) has been approved!
Please be careful! This is the first alpha version, and it havn't been fully tested. So it may contains some dangerous bugs or problems. ONLY use it with your friends or inside test servers!
In the first alpha version, you can only have one tyep of crate and one type of key. Sorry for that, but it is the best I can get in one day as I am a student and have to go school.
That's all you can change in alpha 1 version: The Crate's all possible rewards, the crate's material, and the key's material.
NOOOOOO! I thought this plugin was already approved! So sad now... But great idea! :)
hey sounds like a nice plugin i could use it in my upcomming faction server ;p if you need a beta tester give me a heads up looking forward to it
@Caaake
Thanks. I havnt start coding yet, but I guess that I can release a early testing version in about one day(however bukkit admins need about 3 days to approve it), because I have a working config loading system.
Looking forward to this plugin, I was trying to find something EXACTLY like this. Do you have ETA of the first release?
