Lore Craft
About
LoreCraft lets you add a chance to craft armor, tools & weapons with custom lore name & text. By itself LoreCraft does nothing but add the text & is designed to work alongside plugins such as Lore Attributes & SoulBound that act on custom lore text.
Features
- Custom item-names
- Custom lore text, as many lines as you want (within reason)
- Virtually unlimited custom items
- Configurable chance to craft
- Lightweight
Configuration
There are multiple config files - one for each armor, weapon & tool. Please make sure to go through them all and edit them to your liking.
Q: Each config only goes up to 6 items. Can i add more?
A: Hell YES!
Example:
GoldHelmetsix: name: '&6Super Cute Gold Helmet' lore: ['&fblah blah blah'] chance: 50 GoldHelmetblahblahblah: name: '&KSuper Ugly Gold Helmet' lore: ['&fblah blah blah'] chance: 50
The item "title" - eg. "GoldHelmetblahblahblah" - doesn't matter, just make sure not to use the same title more than once per file.
Recommended Plugins
Lore Attributes | Adding lore text such as '+3 Damage', '+20 Health' or '+5 Life Steal' to items will allow LoreAttributes to act accordingly. See their project page for more details & options. |
Soul Bound | Soulbound is a plugin that makes it possible to have Soulbound items. Whenever an item is soulbound, players cannot transfer the item to other players. Adding the lore '&4Bind on Use' (or '&4Bind on Equip' for armor) will allow Soulbound to work on those items. |
Installation instructions
- Download LoreCraft.zip & extract into your plugins folder.
- LoreCraft comes with a set of default configs (in the armor/tools/weapons folders) - check that these meet your needs and/or adjust as preferred.
Q & A:
Q: Shift+Click Fast Craft not working?
A: The way bukkit is made is when you Shift+Click to Fast Craft it makes Copys of that (First Item) thats being Crafted ,so the way LoreCraft treats that as a form of duplication/cheating so LoreCraft gives you the first item and all the following items are set to default this may be a inconvenience for Fast Crafting players but thats just the way LoreCraft prevents itself
from being abused.
Q: How do the chance values work?
A: The chance parameters aren't a chance out of 100, but rather the chance out of the total value of "chances" within that file. Eg. if there are only two items in the file (item1, item2) set to 10 each and the default is set to 30 then the chance of default is 30/(10+10+30) = 60%.
This means you can have lower than 1% by making default 1000, then item1 & item2 at 10 will give the chance of item1 = 10/(10+10+1000) = 0.0098%.
Q: What Items does LoreCraft Support and will more be added?
A: LoreCraft supports these items at this time. As for other item you will just have to wait and see =)
- L,C,I,D Armor
- W,S,I,D Sword
- W,S,I,D Pickaxe
- W,S,I,D Spade
- W,S,I,D Hoe
- W,S,I,D Axe
- Bow
- L,C,I,D = Leather, Chain, Iron, Diamond
- W,S,I,D = Wood, Stone, Iron, Diamond
Q: Why does LoreCraft have so many Configs?
A: LoreCraft has configs for each item type. It is not a "drop and go" plugin but rather needs a little time to set it up the way you want. It's recommended that you to use a test server to set-up & test configs before using the plugin on your live server.
Q: I don't want chance or lore applied to WoodenSword!
A: That's not a question! But if you don't want wooden swords or other items to be used by LoreCraft you can delete or rename the appropriate (eg. "weapons/woodsword.yml") file.
Q: How do I use SoulBound with LoreCraft?
A: When adding SoulBound you must use &4 (DARK RED) and it must be the last lore added to the item. For tools you use "&4Bind on Use" and armor uses "&4Bind on Equip", as seen in this example:
TOOL: name: '&DSuper Pickaxe' lore: ['&ASo PowerFull', 'SOO EPIC', 'You Just cant ever let go of it', '&4Bind on Use'] chance: 50
ARMOR: name: '&DSuper Cute Diamond Helmet' lore: ['&BPink is just not my color!', '&4Bind on Equip'] chance: 50
Q: I was wondering if I could use apostrophes in the names and lore? Or will it create errors? And also, if I want no lore for an item, do I just put two ' ' or [ ] ? And are the [ ] necessary in lore? (ex. 'It shines in the sunlight!')
A: O Boy you bet you can use apostrophes! You will just need to change the YML file for the item a little so here are 2 examples for you! and yes [' '] or [" "] are needed to add Lore to the item
1. Name and Lore apostrophes
WoodenSwordone: name: "&7Boom's Sword of Lore's" lore: ["Sword's", "Stick's"] chance: 20
2.Item with No Lore
WoodenSwordTwo: name: "&7Boom's Sword of Lore's" lore: chance: 30
@MushYMushY
It is very simple... when you craft an object in your workbench there are a chance to add a lore (description) that you can config on the yml files.
This plugin add a lore (Description) to an object that player can't modify, allowing you to use it with LoreAttributes plugin that give you the posibility to add that lore parametters to your player.
Hey, this plugin looks great. My server currently uses the Lores and Phatloots plugins for its custom items and rewards...
I don't fully understand how to use this plugin, I've looked through the config and this page but not sure the purpose of it entirely (maybe a tutorial vid / page :) )
Anyway, was wondering if this works with PhatLoots? Again, not sure how this works entirely. Thanks.
Great job with the new update guys !
Boots are working =)
@tarahere81
I'll write a page later but it's 300 out of the total chance values for that file.
sounds like if chance is 300 then it should be 100% chance if it is 300/300
@Shelmak
Default:
chance: 300
is the base out of all the items in the list so if i had an item in the list that had Chance 80 then it has 80 out of 300 chance of being made, ZariusT should be on later to add a better detailed on how the Chance system works
It works very well. Now I only wish that Loreattributes developpers make a way to translate lores...
If chance is set to 300, it is a chance of 300% to obtain that object?
@tarahere81
that could of been why the error hehe i never tested it on anything other then Bukkit but im glad to hear it's working for you =)
spigot v 1.5.2
Yes I deleted the header then worked except for boots =D which you already said is fixed in next update yay!
@Shelmak
in the Notes: Link Removed: http://www.mediafire.com/?8dz6j4eqy15mrr1 should take care of the header problems it also comes with the additional configs that will be in LoreCraft 0.1.35
@Lakosta909
Health, Attack Speed, Regain, will not work with out http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/lore-attributes/ YOU must DOWNLOAD Both LoreAttributes & LoreCraft for them to work together. LoreCraft ONLY apply the LORE I would Suggest READING http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/lore-attributes/ to find out how it works so you can use LoreCraft to apply it. If you are Really having a Problem with Attributes i would suggest providing more info when asking nighteyes604
Disaster on 1425 position of all yml files.... I needed to delete all commentary text to fix it. I suggest you to create a documentation page. I will test the plugin now.
about the boots read between the lines =). but still can not understand why health is not working. It has not regenerated above 20. Please can explain more understandable words =). Do not know much English.
@Lakosta909
as it says on the page boots wont be woking intill - 0.1.35 is approved for download LoreCraft only applys the lore you will have to ask night lore-attribute about the regain
@tarahere81
hmm that's odd i don't get that error at all what bukkit version are you use? is it with all the configs? or just that one? i think it's reacting to my little logo i have in the header
(….\LoreCraft/….) \….\…….…………/…./ \….\……………/…./ \…/;¯|¯;\…/
the header is just places there to help with color code and a little info on how it works it's ok to delete it
this is awesome !!!
For some strange reason 0.1.30 had given me some errors with the description at the top of the config.
After I removed the description with the # (pound symbol)
it worked like a charm !
Here was the errors it was talking about line 17 :
http://pastebin.com/YKqcRZdz
put Lore Attributes and Lore Craft. but the regen health and why it is not working properly. When the /hp shows 20/24. The above does not regenerate. And the rate of regeneration of the standard. Attack and attack speed run like =) Just do not attack with added armor. Thought of for other plug-ins, but no. Just put these and resolution. just did not work but have never crafted diamond boots. 150 attempts =) Sorry for my bad English.
