WorldEditSelectionVisualizer

1.9 Compatibility

The latest download is not compatible with Minecraft/Bukkit/Spigot version 1.9 yet and I'm not sure if I want to continue development of the plugin. ZathrusWriter made an unofficial update of the plugin that seems to work fine (although I haven't tested it). You can find the download for that here.

Overview

WorldEditSelectionVisualizer (WESV) is essentially the famous WorldEditCUI mod in the form of a bukkit plugin, which means that players don't need to install anything on their client.

Features

Spawns particles around WorldEdit selections so players can see them
No client mod required
Supports cuboid, sphere, ellipsoid, cylinder and polygon selections
Use /wesv to toggle the visualizer
Only show the selection when holding the selection item
Configurable particle effect
Force large particle distances to see your selection from far away (requires ProtocolLib)
Prevent players from spawning too many particles when selecting huge regions
Highly customizable for the performance of your server

Documentation

Detailed documentation about the available permissions and configuration options is available on the documentation page.

ProtocolLib

This plugin has optional support for ProtocolLib (Jenkins build #74+). If you want to see particles from distances > 16, you need to have it installed and enabled in the configuration (see Documentation).

Screenshots

Cuboid selection Polygon selection Ellipsoid selection Customizable particle effect, large particle distance

Credits and Metrics

This plugin uses darkblade12's ParticleEffect library to spawn the particles. It also anonymously collects statistics via MCStats Plugin Metrics. You can read about the data that is being collected here. You can see the statistics here.

Great, Where is the source so I can make a temp 1.8 update?

For now I used a java decompiler and successfully updated it to 1.8 but obviously I won't share it with others without your permission.

Great plugin, little bit of an issue though.... When using Worldedit version (6.0; 3342-78f975b9), WESV seems to through off a lot of errors in the Console. It works fine, but the errors are every second and rather large. This is with all current versions of WESV and on Spigot build #1649.

Great plugin! Enjoyin' it.
But now have a problem.
My server stops responding, and i think it's all about this plugin. :(
Server core: Spigot 1.7.9-R0.3 (Build 1502)
Plugin version: 1.3

That's a stack trace: http://pastebin.com/A7jyQV2e

Will you please update this plugin to be compatible with Spigot 1.8?

Great plugin, but does not work on Spigot 1.8. A fix would be greatly appreciated. :)

Keep up the good work on this plugin

WorldEdit 6 isn't supported yet, you'll have to use an older version.

I guess you could start with setting gapBetweenPoints and verticalGap to at least 2. I don't know about your servers power so you'll have to just play around with the settings, you can't really break anything. There's a section on this page that explains what they mean and what the numbers mean regarding performance.

Well, the lag seemed to get more intense the larger selection I made (200x200). What would you recommend I set the default settings to?

This plugin doesn't work with WorldEdit v6 yet because there's no release build of it yet. As soon as WorldEdit v6 gets officially released I will update this plugin, but until then you'll have to use the latest WorldEdit 5 version.

Have you tried adjusting the config? You can basically fully adjust the amount of calculations the plugin has to do which should eliminate all lag. The default settings might just have been too intense for your server.

Had to shut it off today due to MASSIVE lag caused by it. Even after a complete server restart, the plugin was still causing massive server (not client) lag when doing a selection.

Yeah, of course it works with 1.7.9. It works with all 1.6 and 1.7 versions and if Mojang doesn't change the packet protocol drastically it will also work with 1.8

I see it works with 1.7.10 so I assume it also works with 1.7.9? I have a list that I'm checking off of for all my plugins to update and I would love to check this one off. It works AMAZINGLY by the way. Right out of the box without issues...
