Thank you so much! I haven't worked with NetBeans or Eclipse before, so you were a great help :)

File->New Project, then choose "Java Project with Existing Sources". Set the project name to Factions, and browse for the project folder. Click Next, then add the /src/ folder as a Source Folder on the next page. Then click Finish.
The libs won't be loaded yet, so right-click the project name and and choose Properties. Go to the Libraries category and click the "Add JAR/Folder" button. Then browse to and select all of the JAR files in the ./lib/ folder and add them. You'll then need to swap EssentialsChat.jar and EssentialsChat_2.8.1.jar around so they load in the opposite order, otherwise you'll get a compile error.
You should then be able to compile.
You can either manually add the plugin.yml to the JAR after compiling, or you can modify the build.xml file in the project root and add this towards the bottom, before "</project>" to have it done in the build process:

<target name="-post-jar"> <echo>Adding plugin.yml and licenses to ${dist.jar}...</echo> <jar destfile="${dist.jar}" update="true"> <fileset dir="${basedir}"> <include name="plugin.yml"/> </fileset> <fileset dir="${basedir}/licenses"> <include name="*"/> </fileset> </jar> </target>

You can then do a regular Clean and Build on the project. The built JAR file will be in the ./dist/ folder.

Have you made sure plugin.yml is in the built JAR file?

You might also check the Bukkit wiki for help on building plugins.

Hmm still the same error... Am I doing this right?

1. Download source 2. Download 1.1 R4 snapshot from dl.bukkit.org and rename it to bukkit.jar 3. place that in libs folder instead of old one 4. Import all that into Eclipse 5. Export (build) to jar file

@Luxius96

Our Spout features do work with the latest dev releases of Spout and CraftBukkit. See this response for more details.

@termhn

Just be clear which branch you're building from; the main branch is the 1.7 dev branch, the 1.6.x branch is the 1.6 stable branch.
As for that error, I'm not sure. I build using NetBeans personally, but the one or two times I've used Eclipse to build Factions for testing purposes I didn't have any problems like that.
EDIT: as an aside, Olof uses Eclipse himself.

OK, when I loaded up your source into an Eclipse project, it threw errors all around, I thought to just ignore them since it's the source for your new version, but when I exported it to a jar and then plopped it into plugins I get this when trying to enable it:

07:05:37 [SEVERE] Could not load 'plugins/Factions.jar' in folder 'plugins': java.lang.ClassCastException: class com.massivecraft.factions.P at java.lang.Class.asSubclass(Class.java:3018) at org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPluginLoader.loadPlugin(JavaPluginLoader.java:132) at org.bukkit.plugin.SimplePluginManager.loadPlugin(SimplePluginManager.java:286) at org.bukkit.plugin.SimplePluginManager.loadPlugins(SimplePluginManager.java:201) at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.CraftServer.loadPlugins(CraftServer.java:165) at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.CraftServer.<init>(CraftServer.java:141) at net.minecraft.server.ServerConfigurationManager.<init>(ServerConfigurationManager.java:52) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.init(MinecraftServer.java:151) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.run(MinecraftServer.java:411) at net.minecraft.server.ThreadServerApplication.run(SourceFile:465)

Any help?

Why aren't you/they using the latest 1.1 branch release, 1.1-R6? Factions 1.6.7 should work fine on 1.1-R6, though I haven't specifically tested it. Of course, if you have sufficient programming experience, you could always download and build our source yourself with an older Bukkit lib version substituted in, possibly needing to make a few minor changes to allow it to compile (not sure).

@CombatWiZ

You can set up a WarZone and enable friendly fire in them (/f config warZoneFriendlyFire true), or you could completely disable our PvP monitoring for a specific world (/f config worldsIgnorePvP YourSpecialWorldNameHere).

@termhn

Factions is superperms compatible, which all modern permission plugins should be based on since it's the official built-in Bukkit permission handler. Please read the FAQ above regarding removing/denying permissions, and if you still have problems, you might take the issue up with the author(s) of PEX.

Oh also, if possible (not sure if this is too much to ask) I need it to be PEX compatible... If you tell me what to change, I can change it in the current version, just like a patch for now :) Thanks!

If not, any direction on which files to edit as a temporary fix to this? I'm fairly experienced in programming :)

Any chance you could do a build of the latest version for 1.1 R4? I'm trying to use this on a tekkit server but autominers (issue 120 fixed in latest version) is making it difficult, and tekkit runs on 1.1 R4. Thanks!

@KERMITtheCOW

By reload, do you mean the reload CraftBukkit command? That's basically always been unusable/broken. Reload your server by using the stop command to shut down properly and then start your server back up again. I'm not sure why they've even left the reload command in for so long since it doesn't work correctly.
