Venificus - Magic in Minecraft
Welcome to the plugin page of the magic plugin Venificus!
What is Venificus?
This plugins allows players to use magic. This magic varies from good and helpful magic to magic that kills and destroys. There are three types of magic: White magic, Black magic and Arcane magic. The plugin supports permissions and is very easy to use. This plugin is different from all other magic plugins because with this plugin, it is not about 'stick spamming'.
Why Venificus?
Venificus comes from the word 'veneficus' which is Latin for wizard/sorcerer. Changing the word made it unique and special with a background meaning.

Black, White and Ancient magic
The difference between black and white magic is, black magic is used to harm people and for dark rituals. White magic is used to make life in the Minecraft world a bit easier and can be used to help your Minecraft neighbours. Arcane magic is the oldest and most powerful magic in the Minecraft world. The spells can be good and evil. What makes Arcane magic different from the other two is the unique way of spell casting. Every spell requires a magical rune, how much runes the spell needs depends on the power of the spell. Creating a source of light is less powerful than changing the time. White magic spells require Lapis Lazuli as a magical rune, black magic spells require Bones and Arcane magic require both Bones and Lapis Lazuli.

Hey there! I added your plugin into my server, and randomly it broke the whole thing, i kept getting the error:
Internal Exception: io.netty.handler.codec.DecoderException: java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: readerIndex(9) +length(1) exceeds writerIndex (9_: UnpooledHeapByteBuf(ridx: 9, widx, cap: 9)
I had no way of fixing this error, other than to download all the world files, and reinstall my setup.
I also have seen threads saying this error is caused by a hack client that places signs with the character "||||||||||||||||||" on them, causing the server to kick any user near the sign.
@JonathanNLD
i think itd be better if you did custom ids? or custom books? like do a cmd or say the word and it gives you the book?
@euQsei
Wield a regular book, fulmen requires 3 bones because it is a regular black magic spell.
Dont Work in my server. It is not clear what kind of spell book and I need to type in the word Fulmen and nothing happens.
will the time to make a spell work be configureable like a cooldown or amount of resources selected for some spells to work i have no idea on how the config works but i definatly love the idea of spells and i want to try it but i must make sure before i can implement it this may be just the plugin im looking for tbh i have to say great job!
@Finelarme2
I am going to make a video today, or tomorrow. But I can help you now, what is the thing(s) you don't get? I can also help you on my server, join 86.83.95.150
Please develop the "How use", it's not clear at all.
@JonathanNLD
id love the books idea, make it a lot easier than expalining how it works to players, arent all commands permissions allwoed for op?
ive really been looking forward to this but i cant figure out how to work it, i ws thinking could you ad custom items per spell? that way i could add them to /kit for different ranks, thanks
I added a 'how to' section. A video will be made and uploaded when I return from Holiday!
I dont really know how this works... I tried alot but nothing works :( please make a video of this for people that dont know how to use
FlipzCraft.us.to is offline.
Just wondering before I check it out, how do you use the spells? I've reread over the entire description at least 3 times and didn't see an actual guide on how to use spells. I read that you need to type them? Could you provide the command for those who observe before trying it out on their servers?
Thanks, superzyr
@ifliplaw
I am glad you like it!
Version 1.1.0 has been uploaded and is waiting for approval!
@Spyglass11
A test server will be up this afternoon. (GMT+1). Maybe around 2PM. Check the description for the IP.
Can anyone send me an ip to a server with this plugin? It looks really fun and I can't wait to try it!
@JonathanNLD

The lux command looks interesting tho
@JonathanNLD
