SparkTrail
An advanced and powerful particle trail plugin
Great for donation perks! Dazzle your friends with tons of unique particle effects!
Development builds of this project can be acquired at the provided continuous integration server. These builds have not been approved by the BukkitDev staff. Use them at your own risk.
The SparkTrail plugin aims to utilise the range of particle effects Craftbukkit has to offer. Fire, ender, smoke and even love hearts are only a small portion of the particle effects this plugin utilises. With over 20 unique effects, there's guaranteed to be one that 'tickles your fancy'!
The integration of Player, Location and Entity particle effects, along with a long list of Sound effects comes packaged inside the SparkTrail plugin. We also integrate the plugin's features with newer Minecraft additions, including complete Command Block support for modifying Trail effects.
SparkTrail comes with an auto-updater to save you, as a server owner, from continually checking this page for new files. It simply connects to dev.bukkit.org and compares the versions of available files. If you do not wish for SparkTrail to perform this check, navigate to the Configuration File (config.yml) in the SparkTrail directory of your plugins folder and change "checkForUpdates" and "autoUpdate" to "false". The first value disables the version comparison altogether and the second updates the plugin automatically if new files are detected.
Metrics is used to collect plugin statistics. Only data such as plugin version and players online is collected. If you do not wish for this data to be collected, disable it in the 'Plugin Metrics' folder of your 'plugins' directory.

Sorry to add this might be bieng thick but will this work with a 1.2.5 server as im running a tekkit one with other newer plugins?
@kjpark100
Hmmm. I can't promise it, but I will consider it for you ;)
Okay.. Will multiple spark effects in the same time be available somewhat next updates? ):
@kjpark100
Not in current versions, sorry. I had considered this when I first made the plugin, but decided that only one effect at a time would be more user friendly and practical.
@QuAd205
I had planned to add SparkConfig for setting and getting values from config files. So yes, this feature is coming ;)
Think you can add a /spark reload command to reload the config? Would help a ton.
Creator, is it possible to have multiple effects of spark in the same time? If it was, I couldn't be more happier. :D
@danb123
I sure can =P
Got a ticket up could you take a look for me Owner of the plugin.
@DSH105
Thanks! Even if you don't add the effect, im still super excited about 3.0! It sounds big! Nice work on this plugins! It's really awesome and amazing on so many levels! Youz havez dunz a goodz jobz!!!!!!!! I rate it 10 out of 10 !
@theknight2009
I'll see ;)
Just wait for 3.0 to come out though :). I don't plan on releasing it too soon as the new effects are still in development. I am hoping that 3.0 will be the biggest major update that SparkTrail has ever had
Is it possible to get the death animation for the enderdragon for a player? So maybe like /spark enderexplosion or something like that? Just wondering. If you could respond that would be nice! Thanks!

First, as a temporary fix the issue, change the "effects.itemdrop.type" in the config.yml to surround. I had warned users of the possibility of this issue arising when it was requested that Item Drop Sparks are moved closer to the player. To counterattack this occurring if it ever did, an ItemDropDespawner class was added in 2.6.2 with the effects/config update so that the issue will be easily fixed. Expect this to be fixed in the next version ;)
Massive bug. When players spark a diamond block, they eventually fill up the inventory with diamond blocks.. So i ahve people running around with a full inventory of diamond blocks (unwantingly) what do I do??
For those who wish to see the new effects that will be added to SparkTrail, here they are:
Better explosion, bubbles, death effect, void effect, critical hit sparks, a variety of spells/mob spells, music note, portal particles, enchantment table runes, lava sparks, water splash, cloud, redstone dust, snowball break, water and lava drip, slime splat, happy and angry villager effects, tool breaking effect.

I can't seem to replicate this error...
I will be redesigning SparkMenu for SparkTrail 3.0 to add support for all the awesome new effects, but I am still curious to know how this happened :\
With a custom GUI??? Im Impressed Nice work dude!
@danb123
I am still yet to replicate this error. I am not entirely sure what is causing it and where the ticket is that concerns it. Put the error log here for future reference and so I can reply directly to the issue if I make any progress :)
@janie177
O_o
I'll take a look into that when I can ;)
@DSH105
How do i fix the issue then buddy
@DSH105
People opening /sparkmenu can just take out the items lol. I have people walking around with portals called potion swirl :3

SparkTrail 3.0 is coming near...And is most likely going to be a 'themed' update. Tons of crazy new effects have been added thanks to some awesome new additions to the Minecraft 1.5 Server, providing server owners with the maximum amount of particle effects that they can get. Just under 20 NEW effects will be added to SparkTrail. SparkPlayer, SparkBlock, SparkMob and SparkMenu will merge together and feed off the same configuration values. Not only will it make it easier for me to read the code, but it will also hopefully mean an easier job for your server's CPU. Stay tuned folks, and always remember to keep reporting those bugs, but please, for the sake of all particles, do not include error logs. That's what the ticket section is for! =D
