Player Count Message

- now animated
By: flyguy23ndm
Thanks for 20k+ downloads
made from my config
Intro
This is my first plugin and has grown much beyond my original sights and has grown in size by a factor of 20 reaching into the 10's of thousands of downloads. The plugin has recently been adapted to allow animated server pings with moving text and a gif for the server Icon. I saw someone was offering an animated config for $12 a download and I thought, I can do that and better, for free. Then, the mega-upgrade of my original plugin had begun and hopefully you will enjoy the fruits of my work. So, if you want an animated ping for you minecraft motd, you've come to the right place.
Also, the old config (earlier than v4.0) has been replaced by a new file. The server will not atuo-transfer from the old config. And I got rid of the motd.txt file.
Note, you need Protocol lib to run this plugin

UPDATE
Hello, I would like to apologize to anyone that wanted to use this plugin. The latest version of minecraft broke this plugin (that was a few months ago). I was discouraged by this so much that I just abandon the project and refused to look at it. This is unacceptable behavior from a content creator and I shouldn't have acted this way. I will post the source code for the broken plugin soon. This code will not work but anyone can see the code that made the magic work (undocumented scrawl is the real magic. I will never document it... that is way too much work for the time I have now). Hopefully this will be of some consolation. I may change the software so that it will work as the initial versions did without the animation. Apparently 37k of you have downloaded the software and I thank you for your support and not reporting me constantly for the small support that I have given.
here is the source code:
bukkit: https://github.com/nicholas-maltbie/PlayerCountMessage
bungee: https://github.com/nicholas-maltbie/Player-Count-Message-Bungee
Feel free to modify, copy or update the code as you please; I only request that you cite me. Also, if you make any cool projects with my work, send me a like and I'd love to see what you have made.
Ok, I have motd working now, a bit more testing and I should have a new version loaded up later today. Thanks for waiting so long. Sorry about the week delay.
Need an update to 1.7.9 please :)

When it's enabled, my server appears "offline" in my client's list. These is no error, it just doesn't show up "online" in my client's list.
Help meh! D: I have a big Error
Hi. i was thinking if it was posable to add something like this?
******
Welcome to ...
Staff online:
John Doe: ONLINE
John Doe: OFFLINE
******
So u can have your staff names there and the plugin checks if they are online or not and it will auto update the infoboard.
so if i join the server and im a staff it will stand online on my name... is this posable now or can it be added? would be nice to have :D
+ would be nice to be able to use this plugin with BungeeCord
@flyguy23ndm
Hey, flyguy23ndm! It would be great if this plugin had VanishNoPacket support.
@SaDb0y
If you're using the latest version of the plugin, you need to use Protocollib 3.3.1 and you can also use craftbukkit 1.7.8/9
The unacceptable character is a problem beyond my fixing until I find out how to work text files. That is how bukkit doe sit and I follow them. The unknown character \uFFFD is what it replaces a corrupted character or unknown character with as it reads the file.
If you have any more questions, you can PM me and I will respond.
@flyguy23ndm
What config? Where?
@BensDaMan It's impossible, I got millions of files in my server and my host only got Multicraft, and by the way I tried the plugin on a local server and it doesn't work, Multicraft isn't the reason, using the latest version on (CB 1.7.2-R0.3).
@NoHoPeLess
It does work, but special tags don't work.
@SaDb0y
Same here but it works...
@SaDb0y
Don't use Multicrap?
Like what people are complaining of the plugin doesn't work in Multicraft host it gives me an error of a special character in the config I think it's the % symbol. The plugin doesn't work in my hosted server Please fix this bug.
Here is the error log when I do /pcm load. http://pastebin.com/kSLbFb7R
@Bunnso
That's set in the config by you and you should be able to set that by yourself. I could add a tag to show the slots left to log in.
