[1.8-1.17]

=== Holographic Displays ===

Welcome!

This is a Plugin for Spigot Servers.

This Plugin is great!

You can use it for Text, Images, its 1.8 - 1.17 and it has Color Code Support!

Like this Plugin, i use it to make Floating Texts on my Public Network Server and so far, its great! I have tested it on 1.13, 1.14, 1.15 and all 1.16 versions. They all still work, and about 1.17, it somehow reads the "Game Response" as an Error Code. It doesn't show any Response what-so ever.

Supported Versions on Displays for Spigot:

1.8.7, 1.8.8, 1.8.9, 1.9, 1.10, 1.11, 1.13, 1.14.1, 1.15.1, 1.15.2, 1.16, 1.16.1, 1.16.2, 1.16.3, 1.16.4, 1.16.5 and 1.17 (As of 2021)

Help & Info

Help: You can use /hd create <HD_name> and then create your Hologram, after it will show a Default message: "This is a Default hologram. Change it with /hd edit <HD_name>" (Input the name of the Hologram.)

Helpful Commands:

/hd addline <HD_name> <Text> (Adds a line to the text)

/hd setline <HD_name> <lineNumber> <newText> (Sets a line on the Text line number)

/hd movehere <HD_name> (Moves the Hologram 1 block under you, also with center block like a TP command)

/hd remove <HD_name> (Removes a line, or a Hologram) (Best works on 1.16.1 to 1.16.5)

Info: This Plugin works best on 1.8, 1.10, 1.11, 1.13, 1.14, 1.15 and 1.16.5. Note that Spigot with a Config file will not work on some servers with Custom Config Managers. Thats how you get no message from using /hd create.

=== Issues & Bugs ===

Reported By: 2010phoenixplays

Important Issues: As of 2021, there are no Issues with the plugin for 1.8 to 1.11. There might be some Bugs with versions 1.12 to 1.14. This might make a lot of things a lot harder to play and to use some other Plugins on your server. So far, use 1.16.1 to 1.16.5 for the best playout.

Bugs: 1.17 does not give a Response in chat but does lag the Console from trying to create a text, this Spams the Console.

I have installed the 1.17 updated version, however the plugin is not working on my spigot server. Whenever I try to create a display I get the message: "An internal error occurred while attempting to perform this command."

I am trying to display a (non-) player head. I cannot seem to get the NBT right. The details may be found at https://github.com/filoghost/HolographicDisplays/issues/358. Any help (especially a working example) appreciated.

Hey. When loading my bukkit server it says failed to load Holographic displays as i need the new chat api. What should I do?
