Hold-able Torches
PLEASE READ
I will no longer be updating this plugin, neither will Relicum or DanielGaming, this is due to the fact that I've stopped coding bukkit (or even java completely) due to the los of interest. The original source code should still be available on GitHub, if you want to continue this project or update it feel free to grab the source code and update it yourself. The current version will still be available for download, but it has only been bug-tested for minecraft 1.7.4 and will not be updated any further. Scroll down for a list of bugs in the current version. The big update that Relicum was going to make has been cancelled due to other things making it very hard to complete.
Hold-able Torches
Hold a torch and get light!
What is Hold-able Torches?
Well, its almost just like the title says. When you hold a torch or a redstonetorch you'll get a night vision effect.
This effect will stay as long as you hold the torch, if you de-select the torch you'll lose the effect.

If you have a video about this plugin, let me know in the comments and I might add your video on this page!

Installation:
None! Just drop the plugin into your plugins folder, restart your server and you're good to go!
Only thing you might want to do is give people the permission to use it ;) otherwise it's quite pointless to have this plugin....
Permissions:
Permission | Description | Default | |
---|---|---|---|
holdabletorches.use | allows the user to use the torches to get the effect. | OP (Only OP's can use it by default) |
Source Code at GitHub!
View the source code at Github! Feel free to use any part of the code for your own plugin!
To Do:
Add Permission SupportAdded!- Add a configuration file with an option to change between the night vision effect or an visual effect as if there was a torch on the ground.
Known issues/bugs
- when the player has a night vision potion effect by a own potion. The effect will be removed if the user scrolls through their hotbar.
- If anyone has a torch in their hand, nobody else can get the effect at the same time or all players will get the effect. This will be fixed soon!
Really Cool Plugin! 10/10
Is there any chance of getting support for 1.8 servers in the future?
@Relicum
Yup, give us the new version. Also, if you need help with writing articles like tutorials and etc. let me know - I'd be glad to help!
@Relicum
Hi there,
This is Elite1369... I had to create a new account because I couldn't recover the password to me old one. Anyway, PLEASE release this new version! I have been waiting to use it in my Dwarven builds.
Many thanks,
TheEliteDwarf/Elite1369
Is there still interest in the new version with loads of new features if so let me know and I'll get it in a release state, everything is all working bug feel, just never got round to adding all the help and stuff, just like the post of leave a msg, if there's enough interest I will release it.
Regards Relicum
The new update has been delayed. I'm not sure when it will come out. Will let you guys know when the update is out!
We're just finishing up the last bugs and removing some parts of the code. Then we will get a release! Stay tuned guys!
@MrCodeMiner
Keep up the great work! Sorry, I was unable to help. I got very busy with coding for a friend. So, keep up the great work on the plugin Minecraftfailzzz :D
@MrCodeMiner
No need to post it. I was just curious.
Thanks for the hard work!

@OnyxianSoul
I'm not sure what you mean. We're remaking the plugin now, a ton of new features. We might not have the nightvision effect anymore or make it an option in the config.
@Elite1369
No I do not have an ETA. I currently only have a beta version of the new plugin. Relicum, one of the other developers, is working on the new plugin. He has the newest version. When he comes back online I'll ask him about it. I could post the beta version I have here but it's very buggy and far from "stable".
Just wondering what the E.T.A is. Thanks.
Could you lower the nightvision effect on the outside? Night is as litten as day this way. Thanks already, Onyxian
@MrCodeMiner
This is great to hear!
I look forward to the release!
@Elite1369
Thanks for the suggestion. We are currently remaking this plugin. The new features will include:
Make the torches burn out
Hi there,
Can you make it possible so that after a certain amount of time, the torch would "burn out" and fall out of the hot bar of the player?
To better explain, after x amount of minutes, the torch would pop out of the player's hand like it was being thrown and then the "item fell in lava" effect would happen (to show it burned out) and possibly have the sound effect play as well.
Thanks,
Elite
@Tristan31150
Thanks! I'll put this on a video page. Could you make a video again once the newest version is out? because that will change everything completely. I'll do the English one myself.
For everyone else: if you have videos about this plugin, pm me so I can consider putting it on the video page

Please read the thread first before posting bugs.

This bug was already know before the project was launched.
Found a bug. When I use night vision potion and drink it and switch from the bottle (full or empty) or slot that the bottle was in to something else, the night vision effect goes away.
Doesn't matter if drinkable potion or splash , creative/survival. Same result.
Bukkit version 1.7.2 r03 Using V2 of the plugin.
Fixed the bug that only one person at a time could use the torch to get the effect!
It still needs approval but once that's approved you can download the latest (3rd) file.
Please everybody update to that version as soon as it comes out!
