NBTEditor
NBTEditor allows easy customization of many aspects of Minecraft, through the modification of NBT tags, on Spigot and CraftBukkit servers. Creating custom potions and tools with powerful enchantments is as easy as running a few commands. And with the help of the Book of Souls, it's possible to create highly complex entities and spawners with ease.
Features include:
- Robust system to edit of all entities and spawners using a book based UI (Book of Souls);
- Conversion entities into '/summon' commands;
- Customization of items (name, lore, unbreakable, modifiers, colors on leather armor etc.);
- Item enchanting with no limits;
- Creation of custom potions;
- Conversion of items into '/give' commands;
- Tile customization (spawners, beacons, chests etc.);
- Conversion of tiles into '/setblock' commands;
- and more...
Edit now, spawn later: The Book of Souls is most powerful feature of the NBTEditor, it allows for easy entity customization. Create bosses, custom villagers, flying creepers or anything you like. No data files, no one-time customization, just keep the book safe and you can spawn as many entities as you like.
Included is also an 'Item Storage' command to keep track of your Books of Souls and other edited items.
The variable system used by the NBTEditor ensures that only valid NBT changes are performed while providing a standard way to make those changes. Arbitrary NBT modifications are not possible.


All Items, Entities and Spawners are fully compatible with the Vanilla Minecraft!
Great for creating adventure maps!

Global Statistics
On version 2.0 the NBTEditor started using MCStats for usage statistics. MCStats is now offline.
Since version 3.0, bStats is used to gather general usage statistics. You can read here about bStats, what data is sent, and how to opt-out from sending statistics from your server.

The current development version of CraftBukkit is no good, it has a lot of problems. A version of NBTEditor at this point would simply NOT WORK. We need to wait for a more stable version of CraftBukkit, then, I can start adding horses and stuff.
I don't know how much time it will take.

This plugin is very restrictive, in the sense that I need to add the new Entities and Variables as they come out, which is a good thing. It creates a more stable plugin, and avoids invalid entities that crash the server and the clients.
Short answer: No, you need to wait for an update. No ETA yet.

You need to provide all 5 values (e.g. to set the head and feet dropchance to 0.5 type '/bos dropchance 0.5 0 0 0.5 0' )

I was hoping that Bukkit would add a "CommandBlockChangeEvent" so I could convert the color codes when changing the command. But I guess I can add something like that, the only problem is that the command will be limited by the size of the chat!
@Absolutionmc
Yes, I will eventually update it to 1.6, I can't give a date on that. And yes, it will support attributes.

Posted Jul 1, 2013Idea: Command to let you change the contents INSIDE a command block, so maybe /nbtt command, so it would support colours, and make the plugin even more useful for me :D

It isn't possible to set the effect strength using NBT tags. However if you apply the same effect as primary and secondary then it becomes a strength 2 effect, to do this you need to have a full pyramid (4 levels of blocks).

Posted Jun 25, 2013is it currently possible to edit the effect strength on a beacon instead of just changing the effect?
