- Floating items inside holograms will constantly rotate and bob up and down.

I made a video on how to use the basic functions of Holographic Displays... I hope you enjoy!
Execelent plugin. I have added support for Holograms in my own plugin MobHunting. You can now make Holographic Leaderboards in MobHunting show Top 10 players in all kind of StatTypes and TimePeriods.

Most plugins use this.

Couldn't help but create an account to help out those in need.
For use with PlaceholderAPI there is this little gem out there on the spigot forums:
Holographic Extension
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/holographic-extension.18461/
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. :)
[07:19:39 ERROR]: [HolographicDisplays] Unhandled exception occured in onPacketSending(PacketEvent) for HolographicDisplays
make it support PlaceholderAPI plzz!!!!!
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.
