Overview
HarryPotterSpells is the ultimate Harry Potter plugin. Whether you run a Harry Potter server, want to add magic to an RP server, or just an admin looking for a bit of fun, this plugin is for you!
Many of these options are configurable. If you don't want parts of the plugin, open the config.yml with your favorite text editor and disable anything you don't want.
Features
- Provides a complete Harry Potter experience
- Can be used on a HarryPotter server, an RPG server, or just to play around
- Has over forty spells, with more in progress
- Cast spells quickly with your magical wand (default: stick)
- Teach users spells with simple commands
Spells
Cast spells with your magic wand (by default, a stick). Right-click to scroll through your available spells, and left-click to cast! Server operators can "teach" and "unteach" other players (and themselves) spells.
For spell documentation, see the Spells page on our site.
Commands and Permissions
For information regarding commands and permissions, see the Commands page on the site.
Configuration
If your not sure how to setup your config or if your looking for a more detailed version of your config, see the Config page on the site.

Supported Languages:
- us-english
- nl-dutch
- de-german
- es-spanish
- it-italian
Locale based Errors
As of 1.1.4 HPS will attempt to do the following steps automatically, in the case that it is not able to please follow the steps bellow Important: For anybody using a linux operating system please do the following steps to install HPS if you get locale based errors:
- Stop your server
- Download hps.rar
- Extract the locale folder directly into your HarryPotterSpells folder
- Start your server
The locale based errors should go away and the plugin should function like normal. If the problem still persists please read the support section bellow

Future Plans
We plan to add an extension system to HarryPotterSpells, allowing server owners to add various HarryPotter- and magic-themed "addons" to the HarryPotterSpells core plugin. However, to prepare for this, we have removed all code not related to casting spells. This includes some of our old features: Spell signs, SortingHat, and hooking into WorldGuard, Towny, and LogBlock. These will be available as extensions in the near future.
Special Thanks and Credits
This plugin would not be what it is today without some of these people. NP98765 originally asked Kezz101 to help me create this, but soon it grew into a group project. Many have spent time and effort helping to develop this. Thanks to jacklin213 for taking this project on board and keeping it updated since 1.7.x
Some developers who have helped (In order of first pull request, most recent to earliest):
signorhuman, jacklin213, Ampayne2, MrBluebear3, zachooo, evilmidget83, korikisulda, RingOfStorms
Thanks to drtshock for hosting the Jenkins.
Interested in Helping?
See this forum post and the Contribution Guide for more details.
Feel free to send jacklin213 a PM and he will sort you out
Add stupefy, petrificus totalus, sectum sempra, protego, levicorpus. And keep up the good work. I might even advertise this plugin!
@lbvermillion
So spells can't be cast in towns? Is that what you mean? If so, I'll see what I can do!
I would like to see the same deny flag you have set up for worldguard work with Towny.
@raizenpk
Alohomora works with doors. Doesn't work with chests yet.
How about Alohomora ? A spell that open a chest/door/etc locked with LWC ?
This looks very fun, good ideas and looks like you did a good job at it.
I wish you good luck.
I'd be happy to help develop this if it was released under an OS license like ISC(L) or FreeBSD.
If you're not willing to do that then I wish you the best of luck, and I'll see what I can do about that list of Harry Potter spells.
Also, a great way for community help:
Translate Harry Potter spells into ones that would work in the Minecraft universe.

Open Source != public domain... FYI
I'll volunteer to be the tester! I have a screen recorder (Fraps paid) so if you need information on how people use the plugin, I'll be happy to provide that.
@YoshiGenius That'll be awesome! Just make a fork of the Repo and we'll be sure to accept most of your pull requests :) Github: https://github.com/kezz101/HarryPotterSpells
I'll help! Providing you use github/bitbucket and/or Maven.
First Alpha version is out!
It's been a long journey and we have finally reached our destination. Our first Alpha release. We'd love for you to download it and let us know what you think! Obviously in these early stages there will be bugs and things that need improving. We'd all love for you to tell us what you find!
You can submit an issue to our issue tracker or leave a comment here!
If anyone would like to do a promo video we'd love that :D

@np98765
ah, okay
@korikisulda
That was supposed to have been edited... Bukkit hasn't been saving any of my edits recently. I wrote that when I was half-asleep (literally), and meant to remove it. EDIT: And yes, I do know what OS means.
'HarryPotterSpells is an open-source project. The source can be found here. You may submit pull requests, and learn from the source, but please do not copy it.'
errrrr...... have you read the open source definition?
@Japven
When we're ready to release. Currently, there isn't a set release date, so just suscribe to file updates and wait. :3
When will be download?
@hawkfalcon
Kezz hasn't responded back for a while. Just saw his status, and he's on vacation for four weeks. So... I don't think he'll be helping right now. :3
Right now, we need a few things - Making sticks uncraftable (if enabled in the config), for HarryPotter servers. - Need to add /unteach - Spells castable by saying the spell name or using it as a command (i.e. "incendio" or /incendio). Easier to cast than scrolling. :P
There are a few other things, mostly listed in the To-Do list. :)
You can PM me (Preferably forums) for more in-depth explanation tomorrow, as I'm in the middle of homework and such right now. :P

Whats done, whats not, what can I do?
