For use with PlaceholderAPI there is this little gem out there on the spigot forums:
Holographic Extension

I can't understand why this plugin isn't connected to placeholderAPI (but to PlaceholderHook, which is not going on with development since 2015). Please go on with your good working AND PlaceholderAPI. :)

Works perfectly on my 1.12 server, thanks so much! This plugin is amazing!
However how can we create an hologram in more that 1 line of text? Do we need to edit the text files?
this plugin doesn't work on my 1.12 server.. how to fix this?
on other versions of minecraft it works like a charm.
Please add spigot 1.12 suport.

I HAVE A BUG
when i create a hologram it teleport the hologram some blocks up and the text is inside a horse.
Excellent Plugin!!!
Just one question: is it possible to set 2x Icons into the same line? If yes, how?
please 1.12 Spigot
Why with 1.8 they are higher than with 1.9-1.11.2?
Does it work with placeholderapi because i tried it and it doesnt work
My server really really miss this plugin... Spigot 1.12. :(
Thanks for the plugin its making my server Awesome
Does anyone know how to change the text size? I'm using plugins that use this plugin such as RichMobs and MoreTP, but the text is absurdly large that it clips off the screen, even on full screen... Please let me know if anyone has a solution. Thanks.
