skin default and npc invisable #223
Comments
|
Same issue here, Running Spigot (spigot_1.8_899f5ee-1092acb) and the latest Dev of Citizens2. Good luck. Love the plugin, would be great to see this working. |
|
Confirmed. |
|
I'm having this problem too, i'm using dtlTraders and players get so confused when the traders are not there all of a sudden, they come back when you write /citizens reload. Sometimes they are there and sometimes not. |
|
Its getting pretty annoying :/ Got the same problem as everyone else.. NPCs dissapearing or changing to default skin whenever they want. Dont let this plugin die.. if you have to transfer to Spigot and make it paid do it, but just let it die |
|
when will the next update be expected come out? |
|
Our lead dev is MIA currently, working on waking him... I've personally no idea what to do with this bug, as I can't replicate it at all. |
|
Can confirm this one - it seems that if the NPC is placed, it has the skin, but moving far enough away that it's unloaded client-side or changing world and coming back leaves it with the Steve skin |
|
Experiencing this too. If mcmonkey4eva can't replicate it, I wonder what we all have in common, and if it's another plugin we have conflicting? List of my plugins... AsyncWorldEdit, Citizens, CommunityBridge, Dynmap, Essentials, EssentialsChat, EssentialsSpawn, getUUID, Multiverse, Multiverse Portals, PermissionsEx, TimeShift, Titlemotd, WorldEdit, WorldGuard |
|
Another thought... what version of Java are you folks running for your client? I only ask because I was using 8, then just went ahead and switched my client to use 7, and I haven't been able to replicate the issue yet. |
|
@pixelbat I'm using Java 8 on both the client and server, as far as I can tell. Haven't had a chance to test otherwise, though. |
|
Spoke too soon, started happening with Java 7. |
|
well is there a way to save someones skin when they join and update it every 12hrs, because the problem is probably it trying to connect with the mojang servers due to 1.8 update. and with the saved skin it can just load from there and ignore mojang checks? |
|
No, as far as I know, the client will only check Mojang's servers for updated skins. Besides, as far as I know, it caches them until you restart the client. |
|
Actually, in modern MC, the server is the one that pings Mojang's server for skin files, and it /does/ cache skins currently. |
|
Huh, that seems like a new thing, then. When did they add that? lol |
|
MC 1.7.6 was the first version to do this. It's also when issues like this one started appearing. This change in MC's code broke so much @.@ |
|
that sucks is there anyway to get around it? will this ever be fixed? |
|
No it will never get fixed because the devs can't replicate it, when the rest of the world can. |
|
If the devs can't replicate it then there's something different in their testing environment. Either way, I wouldn't dismiss them so easily - they make a great plugin, and are clearly trying their best. |
|
@gdude2002 well the issue isn't exactly new. If you look at issues open and closed, it's been reported like over a dozen times, and dating as far back as Oct. It is a great plugin, but I find it hard to believe that this can't be replicated when so many other people can. Getting it replicated should be pretty easy with the assistance of the community. In the name of getting this fixed I'd be willing to share my server with the devs, where it is replicated. |
|
Maybe it would be easier if @mcmonkey4eva could explain their testing environment? |
|
i had this issue but it was due to an outdated plugin.... havnt had the issue since... it was caused by my essentials i had to update to the latest one for spigot... i am running the latest on all builds and havnt had a problem since |
|
@calico-kid hmmm, I also use Essentials. Are you using this version? https://hub.spigotmc.org/jenkins/job/Spigot-Essentials/ That's what I have and I'm having the issue. Are you using any of the other Essential plugins? |
|
yeah thats the version i have... i dont use essentials anticheat or any of the others... i mainly only use it for warps atm since my server is in dev still might try removing the rest of the essentials kit and see if that changes anything... on a local test server of course... |
|
Will give it a shot. I am using Essentials, Essentials Antibuild, Essentials Spawn, and Essentials Chat. Anyone else with the issue also using any of these 3 Essentials mods? |
|
I'm using Essentials with Chat and Antibuild, yep. |
|
Can't imagine Chat causing an issue, but maybe Antibuild. I don't even use it anymore, I'm gonna ditch it and see if that fixes my issue. I'll post back soon. |
|
i would think more like spawn would be the major issuer... but antibuild could do it too |
|
I have already confirmed it wasn't AntiBuild, and I'm running the same version as you guys. I am having a hard time believing this has anything to do with Essentials. |
|
plugins do conflict at times... testing is important to be able to get a definite answer. twice now this has happened with different plugins for me both recently and early on @CKGAR |
|
Seems as though this may be a respawn issue with the chuncks ill try it out again with all the latest build and see if i can replicate this... Is there anything else being used aside from base minecraft and citizens on your test servers? Eg forge or any other mods? Sent from my iPhone
|
|
No. |
|
Same problem as well, i figured that the command /butcher removes NPCs which are (mobtype), dunno how the Player NPCs dissapear tho. |
|
this only happens to ppl who leave the npc when i tried this on my server my friend didn't move and he can still see the skin, but i left and came back i couldn't see the skins. when i disconnected and reconnected i could see it again. i believe this might be a communication issue with the players client. |
|
Is this issue going to be fixed at all? I am still getting this issue even when using the latest Dev Build of Citizens 2.0.15 which claims the following: http://prntscr.com/6j1hl5 I am also using the latest ProtocolLIB so I'm not sure what's the issue here. |
|
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/54130586/Citizens-2.0.15-SNAPSHOT.jar does this build help anyone else? Myself and another server owner are unable to replicate it in this build. |
|
@mcmonkey4eva Still occurs on world change and when joining to begin with, using latest Spigot and ProtocolLIB. Yes, still testing thoroughly and it occurs on world-change and when visiting different areas, the skins don't always load up correctly and just show the default skins. Do you recommend a certain build to use for ProtocolLIB or anything else that could be causing this issue? |
|
@whoshenry protocollib isn't relevant. And try again, I updated the file in the link to catch a few more situations, including world change |
|
@mcmonkey4eva This version you uploaded seems to be so much better. From constant world changing/flying around I've only experienced it a handful of times, but just going a little further away and coming back, they seem to load properly. I will keep testing it but this version is much better. World changes seems to be fixed also. Just loads the skin a second or 2 after you have teleported which is perfectly fine. Update: I am still experiencing a few skin-loss NPCs but not as many as before. |
|
So what build do we need again for the fix? #1224 |
|
There are some problems on the current builds, use the Dropbox build linked above for the fix for now. In theory, the next successful build (IE, not marked with a red dot) will probably be functional too. |
|
Update: #1227 is now available and functional |
|
Eh, I thought everything is fixed.. And is it possible to make the latest dev version to be working with 1.8, since the majority of server owners still havent updated, cuz lots of plugins get a decent amount of bugs on 1.8.3? |
|
We build for latest, that's all there is to it. We're not going to maintain two separate versions of one plugin. |
|
Eh, I cant get a video tho.. But as much as I can |
|
that's not #1227 |
|
Indeed its not, but that version should have the fix as well.. I'll try 1227 right now! EDIT: The result is the same. Skin getting reset to default. |
|
4d08915 |
|
That commit was fixed in the 1227 wasnt it? If yes, still doesnt work. |
|
@Apotheosis1337 maybe a video/some more pictures for it failing on 1227? |
|
I have been experiencing this issue and after the best testing I could manage it seems there is a difference between chunk loading and world loading to the plugin. When I reload the world, e.g use a portal, disconnect, use a warp, or use a TP the NPCs lose their skins. However, when I fly/walk away and come back (which reloads the chunk) their skins return( sometimes a few at a time and sometimes all at once) Perhaps somebody would like to confirm my findings? Hope this helps some, |
|
I have nearly the same problem, exept that I use "craftbukkit 1.7.9 R-0.2" and play with the "citizens 2.013" version. I can see capes, but I can't see any skins. And yes, I tried real playernames and also /npc skin (playername with skin), but nothing changed, just steves everywhere. I also deinstalled the whole server and put only citizens in the plugins-file, but also just ugly steves :P |
|
Skins working at all well on 1.8.6? |
|
ill try it out it doesn't work on 1.8.6 http://screenshot.net/3l5gigw |
|
Can u put the link of the Update: #1227 plz |
Hi Citizer, im am running a spigot 1.8 server and having issues with the citizen2 2.0.14 that some skins default to steve skin and sometimes the Npc's can disappear and not come back when out of chunk ratious and then return back. sometimes i cant see them when login in and have to relog 2 to 3 times.
when npc is invisable you can still select them. There is no error in console, just these smal issues.
