dhmcDeath
dhmcDeath will display humorous messages about a player death, including their username, what the cause of death was (mob type, drowning, fall, etc) and during pvp, will display the name of the killing player and what weapon was used.
Based on HeroicDeath which did such a great job - but for larger servers like ours, we needed more flexibility.
Change existing death messages, add your own. Use placeholders for the player who died, the killer, and weapon (for pvp). You can separate messages by death type and for mob-related deaths you can separate them to be mob-specific. You can disable death messages for any specific death type.
Optionally you can limit the death messages to each world, and/or limit them to a configurable range.
dhmcDeath boasts some killer features:
- Tons of great messages out-of-the-box.
- Easy configuration of death messages. Similar syntax as HeroicDeath for easy conversion.
- Use generic mob messages or add them for specific mob types
- Custom chat colors allowed in messages.
- Disable message for specific events, i.e. show mob death messages but ignore PVP
- Limit messages by world
- Optionally limit the message to players within a range of the death
- Shows owners of tamed wolves
- Supports all 1.1 Minecraft mobs
Installing / Configuring
To install, place the dhmcdeath.jar file into your plugins folder. By default, it will be configured in a way that will work immediately.
- messages.allowcrossworld = Allow messages to be heard cross-world
- messages.hear_distance = If not cross world, how far should players be to hear the death msg
- messages.log_deaths = Log deaths to the console
- allowdethpointtponpvp = If a pvp and the user has death point tp, should they be allowed to return to their pvp death spot
Permissions:
- dhmcdeath.hear = They will hear/see all death messages
- dhmcdeath.tp = They can use /death to return to their death point

@Vitaminous
The configuration error should be fixed with the latest version, 0.1.6.
Hi Can someone explain what this means
debug: false messages: allow_cross_world: false use_hear_distance: true hear_distance: 200
im sorry im noob >.<
Sounds great, will you include 1.2 mobs, too?
@botskonet
Why the hell does it keeps resetting messages I delete?
I checked, the plugin isn't giving out errors. But whenever the server restarts it just reloads messages I removed because of their absurd, attention-whoring length.
I'm wondering why I can't set permission for water flow, or pistons, etc. Are permissions off or does it have something to do with the update? Oh and is this comment in the right place?
@Vitaminous Yes, this has been running fine on latest bukkit builds.
Sup, have you checked if it works with R6/1.2?
@Switch0r
You can reload the config with /dhmcdeath reload, or you can either run /reload on the server or reboot the server. Any of those options are not overwriting the config in my tests, so I'm not sure what's happening.
@botskonet
How did you reload ?
I only reloaded the plugin not the server.
@Switch0r I'm not seeing this happen. I'm able to make changes to the config, reload the plugin, and have the changes remain.
I cant change settings in the config, after reload its all deafult again :)
@Switch0r New messages can be submitted through our site, dhmc.us. You do need to register an account though.
@oleerik Try again... s.dhmc.us:25565 is our server we're 24/7. Currently 61/90 online so I know it's up ;)
Thanks this works great :)
You should let people add msg's so that the plugin gets more crazy msg's when we download a new version.
Keep it up
s.dhmc.us doesnt work :(
Great thinking viv!
This is an excellent plugin!
no more mcmmo death spam for pvp servers!
