Craft body maps like this:

Features

Known Issues

The maximum size for a map is 128x128. If you resize them to 128x128 the server won't have to do any extra work resizing them.
Oh and that error is not causing the player quits. It's just a result of the player quits. I'll have to fix that bug. Edit: Fixed in 0.0.5.

Can you post the server.log on pastebin? If possible I would like to see what the custom pictures look like. How big are the pictures? I recommend resizing them before loading them. That way the plugin doesn't have to do as much work resizing them.

Edit: Seems to be causing lag spikes too

I just tested 140 maps with 4 players and I had 20 TPS. Are you sure it's the headmap plugin causing it? Can send me your post your maps.txt?
