@Baamoink The name tag would disappear...however seems that I'm the only one that can't see the horses. Do you see them from the world, or just when flying?
Giant hooves flying in the sky :D haha.
I'm wondering if it would be possible to implement perma-invisibility on the god horses of the sky? Otherwise, this is a perfect addition to any server that is fed up with having signs spammed all over their server explaining information.
Thank you so much for this plug-in :)
@filoghost
I know, just didn't expect them to be so huge :P
@ayeelanaa That's how the plugin works: horses with negative age (-1.700.000). However I actually never saw them.
Awesome! as all of your plugins
So I installed this plugin, created some holograms on my server and then saw in the sky above my holograms this: http://prntscr.com/2vqsys
So i investigated further, 705 blocks into the sky there was this: http://prntscr.com/2vqsn4
No idea if it is just me but they look like giant horse/donkey legs: http://prntscr.com/2vqtgb
Not an issue so far but I did find it funny.
@alexmarkey Screen please?
Whenever i have more than 1 line, they for some reason scrunch together and combine both lines into 1, overlapping each other
I must have it! It's best plugin ever! Good idea! :)
@tomori_peti That depends on how the file is saved, with Notepad+ + you can save it in UTF8.
UTF8 Support pls! I can't use non ANSI characters in texts.
@Liger_XT5 The name tags are made with horses, with an age of -1.700.000. The problem is that they're spawned 55 blocks above, so go 55 blocks up from the hologram, and try to break some blocks.
@filoghost
Nice timing, I just edited my post with another suggestion. lol
Found an interesting bug. I presume it's the way my spawn is built.

If I had them one block above the ground, looks fine. Two blocks above ground and they look like they are set with &7.
@Liger_XT5
Already done, sorry I forgot the command: /hd movehere <name>
Suggestion: A way to move said hologram.
Placed my first one and didn't dawn on me it would be in the ground below my feet lol.
Also, would it be possible to have a hologram appear in more than one location? Then when edited, they all be updated at once? Reason I ask, I was thinking of having message at each entrance/exit of my town.
Also, in the description above, you have the removeline info twice. I don't see any difference, unless I'm over looking something.
man i can't wait i have seen this on some server b4 good job.
Mm.. I did the holographic displays with a bit of redstone magic already, but they seem to creep upwards.. tad bit annoying.. lol. along with the fact that I can't do anything too fancy with this setup.. (no color or large pictures)
Can't wait for Bukkit to approve this! :D
I can't, this is against bukkit rules. Sorry! I hope that you will enjoy it.
Just 3 words: I WANT THIS!!
Can't wait to have it on my server.
Agreed, unofficial link would be great for us inpatient ones =P
