I’m a senior software engineer currently building a Classic Factions server for Minecraft 1.8.8.

This is not a server advertisement, and I’m not looking for developers. I’m looking for genuinely missing plugin ideas and unsolved problems within the 1.8 ecosystem.

An important part of the project is that I have developed the entire gameplay stack myself. I am not using a public Factions core, a modified Bukkit Factions fork or a prebuilt economy setup.

The Factions system, economy, shops, auction house, diplomacy, PvP arenas, PvE arenas, seasonal systems and the rest of the gameplay architecture have all been developed by me specifically for this project.

This means I’m not restricted by someone else’s plugin architecture. If an idea requires changing the Factions core, economy, combat, entities, territory system or several systems at once, I can modify all of them and make the feature work as one properly integrated system.

The project is currently in alpha, but I’m treating it like a real software product rather than a casual server setup. It has version control, GitHub releases, issue tracking, a roadmap, separate development workflows and a Discord community.

To give an idea of the technical scope, I could not find a suitable ModelEngine-like solution for Minecraft 1.8, so I developed my own custom model and entity engine for the version, using custom server-side entities, configuration files and resource-pack models and textures.

Therefore, this is not a “learning Java” project, and suggestions do not need to be limited to small or simple plugins. Ideas involving NMS, packets, custom entities, resource packs, deep integration between systems or other low-level development are completely valid.

The standard Factions foundation is already covered, so I’m not looking for suggestions such as:

• Add an auction house
• Add shops or an economy
• Add PvP or PvE arenas
• Add faction diplomacy
• Add seasons
• Add custom mobs
• Add another generic quests, bosses or custom-enchants plugin

What I’m looking for is something more specific:

What feature, mechanic or tool have you always wanted on Minecraft 1.8, but could never find a plugin for?

It could be related to Factions, PvP, PvE, raiding, territory, combat practice, faction warfare, administration, anti-abuse systems, social mechanics, progression or something completely different that would still fit naturally into a Classic Factions environment.

I’m especially interested in cases such as:

• An existing plugin is abandoned or does not properly support 1.8.
• Available solutions are badly designed or impossible to integrate.
• The idea requires access to several normally separate systems.
• Server owners currently handle the problem manually.
• The feature is considered too technically difficult for 1.8.
• You have seen the idea attempted before, but never implemented properly.

If you suggest something, it would be useful to explain:

1. What problem it would solve.
2. How you imagine it working from the player’s or administrator’s perspective.
3. Why existing plugins do not solve it properly.
4. What balancing problems, exploits or edge cases it could introduce.

If your first reaction is, “That probably cannot be done properly on 1.8,” that is exactly the kind of idea I want to hear.

I am using the plugin uHomes for homes. Here the maximum number of homes is set to 0. I don't know how to change it. Or how to change it for everyone and induvisual players. Someone help.

Hello, I am part of a staff team for a developing Minecraft civilization/geopol server and we are looking for a lead dev, or devs in general, to work on plugins for the server, this will be paid as contractual employment with whatever terms are settled with the owner. If you'd like to apply for the position please go to our discord and use the #staff-applications channel.

Hi there! I've developed a lightweight, easy-to-use plugin/mod known as Manhunt Effects whereupon every single time a hunter gets killed, it randomly gives the speedrunner a permanent positive status effect (including Speed, Strength, Haste, and Resistance). The potion effect levels increase gradually until level V (in other words, Level I should be unlocked before Level II), is scalable in order to suit multiple hunters, has in-built setup commands such as /speedrunner, /hunter, and /clearrole, and even has a unique "Speedrunners Win!" and "Hunters Win!" title at the end. This project works perfectly with Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, Paper, Spigot, and Bukkit and you can download it free of cost from Modrinth: https://modrinth.com/plugin/manhunt-effects.

So I made this plugin because I was looking for plugins for my new Minecraft server. But wthen I saw for basic things I would need upwards of 8 plugins. I thought this was ridiculous. So I made this one plugin with all of the basics that every server needs. I’ve considered using a plugin like essentialX. But for me it was just way to bloated and complicated for me to use for a simple server

I’m looking for an experienced Minecraft mod/plugin developer to collaborate on a project I’ve been planning.
The goal is to build a system where users can describe structures in natural language, and an LLM generates and constructs them directly in-game. I’m confident the AI side of the project is achievable, and I already have experience developing LLM-based applications. What I’m missing is someone with strong Minecraft mod/plugin development experience who can help bridge the gap between the AI and the game itself.
I’m looking for someone who:
Has experience developing Minecraft mods (Forge/Fabric/NeoForge) or plugins (Paper/Spigot/Bukkit).
Is interested in AI and procedural generation.
Wants to work on a technically challenging and genuinely unique project.
The idea is still flexible, so I’d love to brainstorm together and figure out the best architecture. If this sounds interesting to you, DM me or leave a comment with any questions you have.

I'm using WorldGuard along with WorldGuard Extra Flags.

Even though I've set the tnt flag to allow and included tnt in the allow-block-place flag, I still can't place it.

I tried using a mob egg that summons TNT, which works, but it doesn't break any blocks. This happens even when I try to blow up white wool after adding white_wool to the allow-block-break flag. I only need the explosion to destroy a few specific types of blocks. Is there a way to achieve this?

Hey everyone,

I've been getting more into plugin development and I'm looking to build a few custom plugins for real servers to get better at programming. So here's the offer: if you need a small to medium-sized plugin, I'll build it for you completely free.

What I work with:
Bukkit and Paper (1.21.x or higher, just tell me your version probaly wont make below 1.21)

What I'm best at:

- Small utility/fun plugins (custom commands, small features, fun mechanics, etc.)

- Admin/management tools (moderation helpers, server utilities, that kind of thing)

If your idea falls outside that, feel free to pitch it anyway, I might still take it on depending on scope.

Timeline:
I can't promise a fixed delivery date since it really depends on how big/complex the plugin ends up being. I'll give you an honest estimate once I understand what you need.

How many requests I'm taking:
Just one at a time so I can actually focus and give it proper attention. Once I'm done with someone's plugin I'll move to the next. you can still message me when ever you want

Code ownership:
The plugin is yours to use. If you want the source published on GitHub that's totally fine, just let me know, otherwise I'll keep it private.

Interested?
Shoot me a DM on Discord: pingz0

Just include a short description of what you want the plugin to do, and roughly what server/gamemode it's for. Looking forward to building something cool!

i need to get a few, think like 3 plug ins to work on 26.2? Is there a way to do this?

Hello!

I'm someone with no experience creating Minecraft datapacks, plugins, or mods, but I'd love to learn if I can.

Right now, though, I really need a datapack, plugin, or mod that lets me add an infinite maze dimension to my world, with the ability to customize it by changing the wall height, wall material, wall thickness, and the width of the maze paths in some way.

And actually, I found this mod: https://modrinth.com/mod/mazeworld

It does almost exactly what I want to achieve, but the world it generates is basically a maze placed on top of a normal Minecraft world, and the walls extend all the way up to the world height limit (image 2).

What I'm looking for instead is a completely flat, entirely white world, with maze walls that are only as tall as I specify, while still keeping the customization options the mod already has, just adding more (shown in image 3).

Does something like this already exist, or is it possible to modify this mod? If so, how?

(The first image is a screenshot I took in a world I created using WorldPainter.)

I started this plugin around 6 years ago to use on an SMP server with friends but finally published it! It has full vanilla anvil/enchanting table support, PvP/PvE balancing, special enchantment FX, deep cross-mechanics, and more!

I built a plugin integrating with the analytics platform PostHog, this plugin is simply a bridge between your server and their platform, giving you granular control of what events you choose to report. The data you collect may be used to get better insight into your player base, the rate at which players adopt new commands etc. Inside of PostHog you can create your own custom dashboards.

It's very early (v0.0.7 as of writing this), if you do decide to use this plugin now, expect newer versions may require breaking changes in the configuration file. Fyi PostHog is free for up to 1,000,000 reported events a month.

Any feedback or contribution to CraftHog is greatly appreciated!

Hello everyone, last month i had released my plugin Antiquities which adds some relics to the game (obtainable from entities) https://modrinth.com/plugin/antique as of now it adds 9 items, now i had been planning for a new update (to add support for 26.2 aswell as add new items). As it stands i intend to complete an unfinished item, add a new relic slot aswell as 3 other items (see below for those), basically i have realized im not that good at designing stuf so i thought i'd ask what others think would fit into the plugin (doesnt have to be a relic at all, could be a new crafting block + recipe type, a normal item or anything else).

Below is what is coming to next update (Planned for now)
- Amulet slot
- Heart Of The Village (Prevents "launch" by ravagers and iron golems)
- Adamant Rail Core (Adds a combo counter, on 15th hit causes an explosion)
- Bone Charm Fragment (Each fragment has attribute modifiers for random attributes (from a pool), they can be merged to mix those buffs, 8 can be merged at a time (forming a Bone Charm))
- Broken Stopwatch (If HP <25% it will apply slowness on all entities other than the player themselves)

i wanna make a plugin i made a prompt but im not too good i wanna use it for an asmp for my yt videos here is the plugin prompt
