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!

I see what you mean, the NBTEditor uses (internally) another plugin CustomItemsAPI (also created by me). It when I first submitted my plugins back in 1.4.7 the CustomItemsAPI as named CustomItems and conflicted with another plugin with the same name.
Unfortunately there is no easy fix. These are old Beta Versions I will not go back and do another release.
It might be possible to fix by editing the ConstomItems.jar (the other plugin, not mine), this is a bit technical. You need to open the the .jar with something like WinRAR (a jar file is just a zip file). Then edit the plugin.yml file changing the line that says "Name: CustomItems" to something like "Name: CustomItemsAlt", you may need to extract the file from the jar and then put it back in. You might find some info on the net in how to edit jar files. I'm not sure if this will work...
Anyway, you should update to 1.5.1, the conflict is fixed in that version.

Posted Jan 21, 2015Please don't forget the ability to modify armor stands :D As far as I know, these are entities too? So would it be possible to easily change their extremities positions with a BoS instead of using the overwhelmingly big command :)

Sure, it is easy enough to do. I'll add also the new BoSs for Rabbits etc. These are easy and fast additions. Probably after next week I'll have some time to do a new release.

Posted Jan 17, 2015If you get a chance, for the /nbti command, can you add the ability to make items unbreakable with the new Unbreakable tag?

Just tested several combinations of armor and several empty books (in the latest 1.8 version), but I'm unable to replicate. Is there a mob/combination in particular that triggers the errors?
If the book shows strange symbols with colors all messed up it might be another plugin's fault, as explained in the FAQ.
If you want you can do the following: While holding the corrupted BoS type '/is store CorruptBoS', this will save the BoS in a file. Go to your server's folder and copy the file 'plugins/com.goncalomb/NBTEditor/ItemStorage/CorruptBoS.dat', upload to some site dropbox/4shared etc. send me a PM with a link. I will look at it.

Posted Jan 16, 2015I'm impressed with the time that took the staff to approve the 1.2 file. I guess they have more time on their hands :P.
Also the README.txt file inside the zip still mentions CraftBukkit 1.7.9 that's an error!
After next week I may have some time to enable BoSs for Rabbits, Guardians and Endermites.

Yes, it is not possible to give that kind of permission. The idea is that the BoSs are to be used by the Staff.

Wuhuuu. You are the BEST! I mean it. The way this Plugin works, is one of the most thought out and user Friendly way of Editing NBT Tags.
Also Providing Compatibility Updates despite the Bukkit situation, you have my Respect.
Edit: @GlacialDynasti: I dont think that is Possible with the Permissions NBTEditor provides. I would use a WorkAround: Give them the Permission to just Use the Books, and make Sure they can get the Book elsewhere. (Permissionbased Shop for example)
@commandLion Yea, I know of PowerNBT (Didnt work on my Update Tests though), I had it for exactly ONE reason. To Export NBT Data to a file, for TerrainControl. For every other thing: I Hate it, burn it with fire. ^^

The only one I found that really works on 1.8 is powerNBT. However... it is no where near as easy to use as nbteditor. Using powerNBT will make you really appreciate what goncalomb did with this one. What you were used to (easy 1 line commands) can become several complex commands with the other plugin. (I am still trying to figure out syntax for modifiers).
Goncalomb, you are the hero Gotham deserves (hopefully)

Posted Jan 14, 2015Hm, can someone maybe point me to a similar Plugin, until this gets Updated?
With 1.8 I have to change alot of Villagers, and I dont really have an Idea how to do that with a reasonable effort.

Most of the community has indeed moved over to spigot 1.8. A working version of NBTEditor for it would be extremely valuable. Glowstone and Sponge have some exciting potential but I don't think they will gain any traction in the near future. I'm sure it's a lot of work for you but the whole community would very much appreciate an update to this plugin.
