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!

This is possible :)
Just put the book into a dispenser (it must be a dispenser, not a dropper) and place a redstone source nearby
@goncalomb Could you please add a feature, that makes it possible to right-click a commandblock with a BoS, so that the content of the book gets written into the commandblock as a "/summon" command :)
Hope, you both unterstood what I wanted to say, because my English is not the best ... :)

Posted Dec 1, 2013Is there any way to get the BoS to spawn the contained mob from a dispenser?
Just thinking - infinite dispensers of custom mobs would be pretty handy.

Posted Nov 11, 2013I love your plugin and iv been using it for a long time but there are a few features that i think should be added. 1)you can bind 2 entity's by ropes without having a fence 2) you can give an entity or more specifically a mob a potion 3) make it so u can let minecarts "project" blocks similar to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeUY46h2Tys If you can do that then that would be amazing

Posted Nov 2, 2013Is there a way to make enderman angry and make them not teleport?
Also, I set movementspeed 0 to enderdragon, and gave them slowness 120 for infinity seconds and they still fly around. I tried making them ride a pig that don't move, and they instantly teleport like 500 blocks away.
If I do the opposite, it flies normal. So how do I stop it from flying?
Also, is there a way to copy books?

Posted Oct 25, 2013Is it possible to allow these spawners to spawn the mobs in daylight? I'm running an RPG Server and I'm making training areas in the middle of a forest. The only problem is, they spawn at night, and burn in the day.
Thanks in advanced!
Edit: Just read through 20 pages of comments. It's not possible. Is there a plugin out there that may suit my needs? All I need is for these spawners to spawn mobs in any light level.

Posted Oct 23, 2013So, ive noticed that dropchance isnt being changed. It stays at .85 no matter what you set it to. Recently this was corrected, perhaps it could be the issue. Thanks :D

Posted Oct 22, 2013If I could make a suggestion.
Being able to import/export bos data could be rather useful.
Edit: Actually it would be really useful.

Hello, I had the same problem to. But when you hold the bos do /bos items and place the wanted potion in there. Just be sure to look over the wiki before posting.

Posted Oct 5, 2013You can't spawn Thrown Potions. I want to make a "jumpboost" spawner that constantly spawns potions. Thrown potions can't have an ID with the plugin. I tried editing a potion and adding it to the spawner, but you can't. Please if possible add it (I know it's possible!)
