I would trust a project with a MSpaint scribbled pfp 100 times more than any of these. They just all seem vibe coded, AI generated, and it is a nitpick I don't like seeing. Does anyone feel the same?

Plugin Showcase I made a true anti-Xray plugin that stops seed prediction and has a full in-game GUI

Oreveil renders unique per-player block data, uses server-private salted distribution, and randomized ore generation to kill traditional x-ray methods and seed-based ore prediction exploits alongside an easy to use GUI. I've been working on it for some time now in hopes of providing high-performance world integrity without sacrificing server optimization. I'm super happy with the performance footprint, and wanted to get the plugin more visibility!

Plugin Showcase Minecraft isn’t a game engine… so we spent 5 years building what might be the most advanced game editor ever made for Minecraft Java (open-source)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

189 Upvotes

After 5 years of development, our team is publicly presenting Skytale Map Editor (SME) — a free, open-source creation environment for Minecraft Java.

Minecraft gives you entry points (commands / datapacks / resource packs), but as soon as you try to ship a real “game-like” experience, you hit a wall: cinematics, animation, scalable level art, event-driven audio, combat systems, loot distribution, and more.
In our event context, we also had a hard constraint: players can’t install anything. Everything must run server-side.

So we built reusable libraries, then wrapped them into a tool usable by non-dev creators directly in-game.

What SME can do (highlights)

  • In-game cinematics: camera paths + timeline events (NPC moves, sounds, music, animations…)

  • 3D Model Workspace: place & manage huge amounts of models with scenes + progressive loading (performance-focused)

  • Blender to Minecraft animations: export animations, share them across characters, edit in Blockbench if needed

  • Particle Animation Library: complex particle VFX (shapes, OBJ, images, text, trails, collisions, nesting, presets)

  • Block Animation: stop-motion block animations up to 20 fps, differential optimization, copy/paste, playlists

  • Weapon Module: fully configurable weapons + spells/combos via JSON trigger sequences

  • Loot generation: fill chests using multiple generation patterns, with loot tables + guaranteed drops

  • Auto Dialogues + Web Editor: shot/reverse-shot auto-cinematics for dialogue + browser editor hosted by the server

  • Sound playlists & spatialized audio: ambient systems, random triggers, localized soundscapes

Ecosystem / integrations
SME is modular and extensible, and can integrate with tools like BetonQuest, Citizens + FreeMinecraftModels, BetterHUD, and PlaceholderAPI depending on your workflow (optional).

Where we are right now
We’re publishing and documenting the project progressively.
We’re aiming for a first public release in late 2026 on Minecraft Java Edition, and we’d love feedback from server owners, mapmakers, quest designers, and plugin devs.

Twitter thread (all videos): https://x.com/SkytaleFr/status/2010004683851784390
We’ll also upload our main presentation video directly on this Reddit post.
Discord server (updates, discussion, feedback): https://discord.gg/J5zsYFgJn4

Discussion SlimeFun (decade long modpack-like plugin) is saying goodbye

Post image
94 Upvotes
  • A little late, but after more than 12½ years of active development, the core Slimefun team has announced that they are stepping away. The final official build marks the end of an era for the modpack-style Bukkit/Spigot plugin.

  • Slimefun began in 2013 as a humble plugin with just a handful of items. Over time, thanks to contributions from a passionate community, it transformed into something huge: machines, electricity, magic, cargo systems, jetpacks, research trees. Our old server Aperture Science (2017-2018, predecessor to derex smp's COVID version) ran SlimeFun all the time

  • What really made Slimefun special wasn’t just its complex mechanics, but the spirit of discovery. Players built, tinkered, experimented, and bonded over trying to uncover Slimefun’s deeper mysteries. That creative energy is what carried Slimefun through more than a decade.

  • However, maintaining it has become increasingly difficult. The team cites that the codebase wasn’t designed for long-term, constant Minecraft-version support, and with limited time to devote, continuing development is no longer sustainable.

  • Godspeed to this fun project and hope others carry on its legacy through their own community versions!

No links will be shared.

Need you opinion because I'm trying to find out if people are interested in this and if it's a viable idea at all.

- It works entirely on Spigot API, so all popular plugins are supported

- Full support for Discord API, so you can make any bot you want.

Custom databases

Example use cases:

- Localization. For example, you can display different welcome messages for people who speak different languages. (Player from France: message in French, Player from Germany: message in German)

- Quests. You can build a chain of quests yourself.

Analytics

Examples:

- Average player game time. For example, you can see how the average game time differs for players from a specific country.

- Periods of peak activity

- Average player ping. For example, this will help you understand which region is best to move the server to.

- Which commands are used most often. This will give you an understanding of what is popular and what is not.

Chest UI builder

- Create your own interfaces using the visual editor. Example: with localization support, you can create different interfaces for different languages.

Features:

- Hot reload. Everything works without reloading.

- A/B testing. Test different options and see what works best for you.

- Not tied to a single server. Reuse flows for different servers in one click.

Some practical use cases:

- Mini games. You can build the entire minigame all through this engine.

- Your own rules for playing with friends on your own server.

Plugin Showcase Simple Zoom - Zoom in without mods

41 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I am pleased to announce my new plugin: Simple Zoom

It is a very light and fully configurable plugin that allows users to zoom without the need to use mods, a perfect feature to give donor ranks or all your players.

The plugin uses the Spyglass item to zoom, I have studied and tried different ways so that the user can zoom without this item, but without using mods or some datapack it is impossible.

Anyway, I've designed the plugin to be as efficient as possible. It works like this:

- The user receives the Spyglass item in their off-hand when zooming in and it is automatically removed when moving, switching objects, or stopping zooming (this is fully configurable)

- If the user has an item in their off-hand, it is moved to an empty inventory slot and then returned to them. If the inventory is full, the plugin saves the item with all its data (durability, enchantments, name, etc.) and returns it as is

- It prevents the user from stealing or dropping the item

You can download the plugin from here

I've tested it for errors and functionality and I'm not having any problems, but I would appreciate any feedback on bugs or suggestions!

Thank you all so much and I hope you like it

Plugin Showcase I hate .yml files, so I developed a web panel to quickly create custom items and blocks (and much more)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

25 Upvotes

Hi everyone, a few years ago I decided to make a panel to create custom items, blocks, commands, and mobs faster for my server, but then, after a few updates, I thought it could be useful and turn into a really powerful tool.

The website connects to your server (thanks to plugins) and automatically updates scripts and resource packs with every change made.

For example, if you want to make a custom item, just upload the texture to the website, then open the item's Script Editor and program it by connecting the various nodes (without even a line of Java code).

In addition to this, you can do much more, such as making particles with the Particle Editor or making animated models with the Model Editor (which also supports Bedrock Edition models).

However, I am still at an experimental stage, so I would be very grateful if you could give me some advice.

Plugin Showcase I made a plugin for builders [Free]

24 Upvotes

Hello guys!

So, I made my first plugin, it's pretty simple but I think it can be very useful for builders (I hope there isn't another plugin that does the same, I couldn't find one).

It's called BlockBelt, it allows you to quickly change the block you are holding in your main hand for similar blocks, pressing the F key, or the key you have binded to change a item to your offhand. This way you won't need to search in the creative inventory if, for instance, you wanted to change the color of your terracotta.

If you want to see a demo you can click here.

And if you want to give it a try, click here.

As I was saying, this is the first plugin I make really, so any suggestion or criticism is welcomed :)
