Minigames
== NOTICE == 9 Aug 2016 ==
As most of you have already worked out, public support for this project has been non existent. Unfortunately with the workload of trying to manage and run a server network where minigames is only 1 out of what feels like 1000 projects we maintain... It gets hard trying to find time to help everyone.
But fear not this project is indeed not abandoned! We have moved the project to SpigotMC:
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/minigames.19687/
++Update Note Aug 2017++
Please Note I have provided updated downloads for all versions back to 1.7 .. We are trying to get some idea of what versions people are running still and what we need to focus on...updating will help us target our product improvements.
The files section contains various version downloads OR you can dowload them : - here
Minigames is a plugin in which users can create and play several types of Minigames on a server, without the risk of losing items or XP when they die. Players can also use checkpoints so when they die, they are reverted back to that position.
The Possible Minigame types are:
- Single Player - for jump puzzles, mazes etc.
- Last Man Standing - A multiplayer Free for All (FFA) PvP Minigame
- Race - A Multiplayer race Minigame
- Team Deathmatch - A deathmatch round against 2 teams, first to a defined score wins!
- Deathmatch - A free for all deathmatch round against any predefined amount of players, first to a defined score wins!
- Spleef - Its possible to create custom Spleef arenas, as well as your standard spleef arena.
- Treasure Hunt - A global treasure finding Minigame that is always running
- CTF - An expansion to the Team Deathmatch Minigame.
- Infection - An expansion to the Team Deathmatch Minigame where the infected players must kill all survivors.
Features:
- Prizes for completing a Minigame
- Economy support (Requires Vault)
- All command configuration for creating Minigames
- Completely customisable, lots of settings to create your own styled Minigame.
- Ability to create multiple loadouts
- Inventory saving
- XP saving
- Minigame regeneration (slightly limited)
- Timers
- An automated update checker for OP's (Can be turned off in the main config by setting updateChecker to false)

Purpose:
Minigames was created for players to play games within a server and win prizes for completion, also to let players play PvP games without the risk of losing their hard earned items and XP. Minigames also reward players for completing each Minigame, or with PvP Minigames, the player can be rewarded with 'bets' that players make before they start the Minigame. These bets can be in Economy money or preset items.
These Minigames can be created in any style the player wishes, for example, parkour jump puzzles, mazes and treasure hunts. As well as PvP games like CTF, races and more. You are given a lot of options to add to each Minigame individually, so they are all completely customisable.

Awesome can u add more minigames like Hungergames.
I am making a fnaf server so is there a way to put limits or teams eg. team 1 can have up to 5 players. team 2 can have up to 3 players. And is there a command to have teams allied eg. team 1 cant kill team 2 but team 1 can kill team 3.
I have a Search and Destroy type Game Mode and everything works great except, the person to kill the last player is stuck in the arena and has to do a command to get out? suggestion? Also I had to delete the select teams for it because it would switch all the players to one team? lol I only need help on the player staying in arena though! Thanks :D
Hi, could you make it so you can see players in the game, so you dont join empty games. it would be nice to do it on the join signs.
How do you disable auto balance?
anyone else having issues with loadouts? they keep disappearing and not sure why... I would report it as a bug but not sure if its a bug or if I am setting it up wrong?Figured it out, I didn't save the loadout properly before but now I have and it works perfectly fine. Great plugin! A little difficult to figure out how to setup but once its figured out its smooth sailing from there. I suggest this plugin over all other Minigame plugins!
Not sure if you'd find it useful, but i created a tutorial video on how Survival Games could be made with your plugin. Which i noticed isn't featured in any other videos.
Click here for the video.
Can I make a game on the schedule?
Is it possible to make the fourth line on a minigame sign list the players that are already in the game or if there is no players in the game? For example it should look like this 1. [Minigame] 2. Join 3. YourMinigame 4. 0/20 (or however your maxplayers are) and when someone joins the numbers goes to one and is displayed as Example 1/20
Is this possible i would really like this done and if not i am going to have to start talking to some developers for payment on getting this done
Also could you change the name of the sign instead of [Minigame] To your server name? Ex [Server Name]
@SanguinaryGames - I actually requested this also ;) But if you really really put your mind to it, you could possibly achieve this anyways. Using vault, an economy system and some other plugin to use as a shop in the lobby etc..
Yeah it would be a little bit of mucking around but otherwise not possible currently (until i annoy razz some more about doing it lol)
Is it possible to make a shop for the match? Like Hive has or Hypixel and all those big Minigames servers? If not you should add that into the plugin. Which would make the plugin much more awesome.
I came across this weird bug. I am using flans mod with the server and I have set up loadouts so the weapons are preloaded, however after a restart, the guns are not loaded anymore. I created a ticket about this issue. Another bug is that it seems that after every flans mod update, loadouts don't save the right data. I think the issue with that is that is reads the id number instead of name, not sure. I will look into it later.
@Archmohaa
Thanks for the feedback, already made backups before updating and was aware of of /mg loadout. You should join our beta run. I am planning to have a public beta run with our latest modpack using the newest version of minigames tomorrow at 6PM EST. http://www.technicpack.net/modpack/details/bullet-phases-pokemon-pack.145717
@nhoxfaycau520 - when you create your minigame go /mg edit minigame and then click on the loadout icon (Down bottom left, next to diamond sword it says additional loadouts. Unless of course you want to edit the default loadout then hit the diamondsword) From there just hit add loadout, give it a name then drag and drop the items you want the loadout to have.
@piggogade - technically there is no spleef specific tutorial anymore. If you are using the latest stable build on here you just create a new minigame, set its type to Free For All and set score type to custom. Then just adjust your settings to allow breaking of snow blocks for EG, give everyone a shovel. Set everyones lives to 1, put a regen area around the arena to roll it back and done :D I do think i will make some updated tutorial videos for razz sometime hopefully, i just need the time myself ><
@Vecteur - Vecteurs problem was solved with their ticket :) Thanks! (If anyone else is curious it is because the language file is formatted as plyFound and it is looking for plyfound. Just change the language file to be plyfound and it will read it again. This has been fixed in the latest dev)
@Prodkid - The latest dev is stable-ish enough. We are currently running it on our live server over at addstar and dont have a single issue (That we are aware of) There are a few minor hiccups here and there but nothing drastic. If you are planning on updating your server to the latest devs i really recommend backing up your entire minigames folder and database because you cannot downgrade from the devs back to the 1.6.4 stable. (So you would have to delete everything, put your backups back in and then rerun the 1.6.4 again)
The devs have sooooo many cool new things that i think its well worth it anyways. Just be aware with all devs, there might be some issues.
Also the devs have a feature for typing /mg loadout while in a game and it opens up a GUI so you can select the loadouts from a menu. As for using the command to select specific loadouts by name you could always make a ticket suggesting that and see what _Razz_ says :)
How stable is the latest dev build? When do you think it will pushed to recommended ? Also can i recommend a feature. Have a command that selects a specific loadout. For example there is a loadout called sniper, have a command like /mg loadout sniper to select it.
Hello, nice plugin ! But when I found the treasure in treasure hunt, it says "No path found for: minigame.treasurehunt.plyfound". I need help please. EDIT: Solved. Thank you for the great support.
Where is the page to get the spleef tutorial?
How to add new loadout ?
