"Sorry, I forgot to mention it was 1.7.7 I was using. I also found I couldn't get the faction tag with herochat working. But that was probably because of my lack of setting-up plugin skills :P"

No it's just still not working.

Sorry, I forgot to mention it was 1.7.7 I was using. I also found I couldn't get the faction tag with herochat working. But that was probably because of my lack of setting-up plugin skills :P

Oh yeah, and I had to downgrade back to 1.6 as players could edit blocks in other factions land...

Thanks,

Edit: And I should also mention I was on the lastest beta build of craft bukkit, and I should mention you have the § symbol once or twice in your config.yml, which comes up as a strange string of characters in-game. Im not sure if its meant to be a &? Thanks, ;-)

Update your Factions to 1.6.9.1 and Craftbukkit to 2353

@TheChinski

Try Factions 1.7.7 beta for HeroChat compatibility

You can make custom zones, just create a faction, make it permanent and then you have a custom zone which you can change all of the permissions for.

People really are stupid here.

this morning factions was in-operational.

edit: it was the newer craftbukkit dev build that broke it. i reverted to an older version and its ok again.

p.s. can we get some support for pvparena plugin please? people in my arenas cant attack players from the same faction.. and also i need a zone similar to the warzone but with a completely seperate set of permissions so i can allow different TNT rules inside my arenas(which i typically build inside warzones so people can't claim them).

arenazone, pvpzone (similiar to warzone), playzone (for parkour, etc, similiar to safezone) would be nice. or even the ability to just make custom zones?

thanks :)

I get the following error when using it, but I wouldn't say it "sucks" I'd say it's non-functioning. <<code 2012-09-03 08:35:40 [INFO] [Factions v1.6.9.1] === ENABLE START === 2012-09-03 08:35:41 [SEVERE] Error occurred while enabling Factions v1.6.9.1 (Is it up to date?) java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/bukkit/craftbukkit/libs/com/google/gson/reflect/TypeToken at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:791) at java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(SecureClassLoader.java:142) at java.net.URLClassLoader.defineClass(URLClassLoader.java:449) at java.net.URLClassLoader.access$100(URLClassLoader.java:71) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:361) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:355) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:354) at org.bukkit.plugin.java.PluginClassLoader.findClass(PluginClassLoader.java:44) at org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPluginLoader.getClassByName(JavaPluginLoader.java:239) at org.bukkit.plugin.java.PluginClassLoader.findClass(PluginClassLoader.java:40) at org.bukkit.plugin.java.PluginClassLoader.findClass(PluginClassLoader.java:29) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:423) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:356) at com.massivecraft.factions.P.getGsonBuilder(P.java:128) at com.massivecraft.factions.zcore.MPlugin.preEnable(MPlugin.java:68) at com.massivecraft.factions.P.onEnable(P.java:82) at org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin.setEnabled(JavaPlugin.java:217) at org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPluginLoader.enablePlugin(JavaPluginLoader.java:365) at org.bukkit.plugin.SimplePluginManager.enablePlugin(SimplePluginManager.java:381) at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.CraftServer.loadPlugin(CraftServer.java:265) at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.CraftServer.enablePlugins(CraftServer.java:247) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.i(MinecraftServer.java:296) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.d(MinecraftServer.java:275) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.a(MinecraftServer.java:225) at net.minecraft.server.DedicatedServer.init(DedicatedServer.java:140) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.run(MinecraftServer.java:378) at net.minecraft.server.ThreadServerApplication.run(SourceFile:539) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.bukkit.craftbukkit.libs.com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken at org.bukkit.plugin.java.PluginClassLoader.findClass(PluginClassLoader.java:34) at org.bukkit.plugin.java.PluginClassLoader.findClass(PluginClassLoader.java:29) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:423) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:356) ... 29 more>> <</code>>

Does someone know how to get herochat en faction work together? Faction mod is fucking it up. Herochat doesnt work when factions mod is online.

Running

Bukkit: 1.3.1 Hero: Newest version Faction: 1.6.9 for CB 1.3.1-R1.0 Aug 10, 2012. Newer version of faction sucks big time. Doesn't even work.

Faction tags in chat are messed up, I've tried following your guide but didn't find it too comprehensive. Sorry. I use essentials. The chat names are coming up like fFactionName r<playername>: player message.
