Minecraft limitations

- Holograms are always visible through walls.
- Text size cannot be changed. You can make it bold and uppercase to make it look bigger.
- Floating items inside holograms will constantly rotate and bob up and down.
Credits
- Asdjke for the original idea in vanilla.
- bobacadodl for making image support easier with this library.

Thank you for the response. I appreciate that someone took the time to make a plugin for this really cool concept in minecraft. The plugin is very useful and fun to experiment with.

If there is, what is the formatting for it?

Posted Feb 27, 2014would be nice to have player controlled visibility, or distance from hologram so its hidden within a shorter distance
also would really be nice if the effect was self illuminated, it seems you can't block the sunlight from directly above the holotext position without it making the text look really dull during the daytime, and you can't light it up with normal light blocks, and at night it looks hard to see.
hopefully mojang see it and pull the finger out and do some actual work improving the game.

Posted Feb 27, 2014I don't really understand how all this works but would it be possible to hide some/all holograms for other players when they enter a command?
I just installed this plugin on my server and used it as a tooltip for areas on the server. Would be nice if players can hide it if they want to.

Posted Feb 27, 2014In hologram text you could put that detects players "X" server (BungeeCord and also the current server) and if this online would be very cool and epic besides this also the name of the player to say for example: Hello magosum and things well xp etc ... (using [Playername] for example) and support comand blocks (For change "X" time the hologram)
