Minecraft Holographic Text: Entity CustomNameVisible

[@Boxman2321]

SimplySarc actually was the first to find out about the horses, he just never named them

[@SpidersLaboratory]

What happenes when you get killed by a named arrow? Does it give you a custom death message like with named mobs? That would be fun to play with!

[@dragnoz]

thats a very good question!

[@SpidersLaboratory]

Just tested this. And yes! It does! If you summon an arrow via /summon Arrow ~ ~2 ~ {Motion:[-1.0,0.0,0.0],CustomName:"TestArrow"} and get killed by it, it says: "Player was shot by TestArrow"!

[@perschrijver8884]

Cool!!!

[@lewysminty603]

Warning!! COMMAND BLOCK NERD

[@felicianavarro7156]

Lewys Minty XD me too!

[@quad9363]

The best part of this is being able to refer to an entity without UUID's or scoreboard objectives.

[@LetsRockMinecraft]

Arrows with ExplosionPower? wow

[@clinicallymanic]

Now you can use armor stands with the marker tag plus you cant right click them with that tag and they dont render at all

[@SnivyCraft]

Thanks to you Dragnoz you have inspired me to make a parkour map for everyone on PMC! I'm huge fan of you Dragnoz and after watching your videos I always use your ideas just to go make something completely random and fun for me and my friends! You Dragnoz are my biggest inspiration and deserve more subscribers than you have right now! Your even making things Sethbling didn't ever make in his minecraft youtube career which makes you 100x better than him! No offense Sethbling

[@CSWSNomadFTW]

The fireball and arrow would be amazing for strategic pvp with the /execute command! Can't wait

[@KanonKG]

can you do a colored floating text?

[@dragnoz]

not in game but with MCEDIT yea.. problem is commandblocks cant do coloured text yet

[@KanonKG]

in minecraft you can do colours : §1 §2 §3...... in a book & quill but to do it in commandblocks i saw a video (but i dont remember it , ill try to find it) that §1 §2 §3...... is the same as \u00A71 \u00A72 \u00A73 minecraft.exaspianstudios.com/motd.php Sorry for my bad English ;( Thanks!

[@dragnoz]

Kanon Gaming MOTD is in the server.properties text file and not in minecraft itself... Commandblocks cannot take the § when you type it in. You have to enter it into a commandblock with an external editor like MCEDIT

[@KanonKG]

ok thanks for explaining!

[@pickaxecraftgamers]

Dragnoz It is possible to make without MCEDIT, just control + center click and you got a commandblock with lore: (NBT+) so, you go to the NBTExplorer and change the item data to §1§2, save and you will get it ;D

[@3044Smike]

First thing i thought of, making a snowball entity follow a player and giving it the name "Hey Listen"

[@liateRdnalkcoB]

Hey Dragnoz, I figured out a new kind of block using /clone's move parameter. You place a redstone block next to the command block, the command block moves the redstone block along to another command block which moves it... Well, not exactly a block, but definitely an interesting way of moving redstone power - by moving the source around.

[@grimsagent3851]

To all those wondering if you could change the colour of the entities names, put the entity into a scoreboard team using a command block, and give that team a colour, that way the entity's name would be the colour of the team. Right?

[@MoreInsane96]

As 1.8.3 wither skulls are visible now, and armor stands block the way to blocks behind them, how can I fix that?

[@dragnoz]

Insane96MCP /summon ArmorStand ~ ~1 ~ {CustomName:"Use the Marker Tag",CustomNameVisible:1,Marker:1b,Invisible:1} ;-)

[@MoreInsane96]

/summon Thanks ~ ~1 ~ {CustomName:"For you", Amount: 1000} :D

[@thedayzombie617]

Dragnoz it works for me on singleplayer, but not multiplayer?

[@MoreInsane96]

The Day Zombie Strange, IDK

[@thedayzombie617]

i found it out its a problem with the /Summon Command

[@dragonfighter5955]

Thanks for accepting my request to do a video on the custom name. thanks again!

[@archangelstyx7828]

This would be a great Objective Waypoint Marker for adventure maps. Like just giant text saying "go here" that disappears after you walk by it using testfor and kill @e. Minecraft is no longer just a game, its a full blown engine.

[@tylo9991]

Hi dragnoz i was wondering if you could do a video on a torch that follows the player and still gives off light

[@SilentscufflE]

Can you do this over dropped blocks like dirt, seeds, etc.?

[@slugrex]

Dragnoz I have neen thinking of an idea for you. You should try to make a world border sort of map. And any natural spawning blocks broken decrease the border by one. ( you can mame the default border whatever you want) Plus by using scoreboard test for crafting items, like a beacon or diamond items, which then would increase the border. Please try this.

[@MacroBurstable]

Funny little trick. If you keep summoning any entity, let's say a Wither Skull at the same spot, you can make the background darker

[@jakerjoules]

Hey Dragnoz. What if you could use the custom potions technique to make the Omnytrix from Ben 10 so that you can turn into one out of 10 aliens! Think you could do that?

[@vincentcananes899]

Can you do custom commands with book and quill i would love it if you do.

[@shanerobinson4875]

In Minecraft 1.8 couldn't you use invisible armorstands that have no gravity named?

[@williamduley5351]

Dragnoz how do I make the wither skulls invisible, it keeps saying that @e[type=WitherSkull] is not a valid entity, what do I do?

[@TheRedEncryption]

put a space after @e

[@fahrenheit646]

For some reason, the tag 'CustomNameVisible' doesn't seem to work in 1.8, unless I'm getting this command wrong. Here's the command I'm trying to run: /summon Villager ~ ~ ~ {Offers:{Recipes:[{buy:{id:263,Count:4},sell:{id:265,Count:1}},{buy:{id:331,Count:3},sell:{id:265,Count:1}},{buy:{id:406,Count:2},sell:{id:265,Count:1}},{buy:{id:351,Count:1,Damage:4},sell:{id:265,Count:2}},{buy:{id:266,Count:1},sell:{id:265,Count:5}},{buy:{id:264,Count:1},sell:{id:265,Count:12}},{buy:{id:388,Count:1},sell:{id:265,Count:32}},{buy:{id:7},sell:{id:7}}]},Profession:2,CustomName:"TEST",CustomNameVisible:true} Everything works fine, except no matter what I put under 'CustomNameVisible,' the name will still only appear when the player is looking directly at the villager. I want the name to always be visible, just like a player's name, as shown in the video. Does anyone know what's going on?

[@roarinflames19]

I'm pretty sure it can only be like that. It's just like giving a name tag to an entity.

[@PhoeniXXTalon]

You have to put a 1 instead of a true. 0 means false, and 1 means true. Hope it helps!

[@KevanM]

Hello, I entered the command to make the floating wither skull, however I did it on a server. "/kill" will only work on players (/kill [player]) so i cant do "/kill @e[type=WitherSkull]" or "/kill @e[r=1]" or any of that due to it only working on players. Does anybody know a way around this?

[@KevanM]

Never mind, I figured it out. To use the default version of any cmd you simply type, for example: /minecraft:kill @e[type=WitherSkull](you can add a radius if you'd like, then it would be: /minecraft:kill @e[type=WitherSkull,r=3] or whatever radius you choose).

[@HarleyZedYouraveragegamer]

This is amazing. It blew my friends' minds when I showed it to them xD

[@Piistdrei]

You dont need to use direction:[0,0,0,0,0] Just direction:[] will work.

[@ericpaskach6329]

um I accidentally spawned one and I can't get rid of it. Help

[@2030games]

CionLP why do you keep going ^^

[@CionLP]

2030games its not that i dont like the new things i love to build with redstone and i would say that im a pretty good builder without lying i just recognized that i had a different feeling when i started minecraft it was just so simple i really liked that ^^

[@tuckertcs]

CionLP I'm the opposite. I liked it when I first got it because I didn't know everything. I thought it was endless but now I know all the crafting recipes, commands, stats, etc.

[@Grid21]

That's like holographic display plugin over on Bukkit.

[@PwnagePineapple2]

I tried this in the right snapshot, but the wither skull immediately despawns, and in the console I get: Fetching addPacket for removed entity. Help me.

how can you remove the wither skull text again???

[@lolieyellow5958]

Do you need to add mcedit like asdjke showed on his video on the matter. Also, can server admins ("by permission node" not direct server administrator) implement this system.

Hey Dragnoz, I'm trying to make Angry Birds in Minecraft using 1.8 features (such as your custom player heads), and I need a little help; would I be able to use /testfor to test for when an arrow hits a certain block? Example: If an arrow (or in this case, an "angry bird") hit a block of TNT or a player head

[@williamtremblay5633]

Just do "testfor @e[pos] {inTile:blockid}, link this to a clock and put a comparator on the side of the cmd block. it should work!

[@angelinaklenke2844]

Can you make it shoot in another direction?

[@KaelynWondell]

Hey Dragnoz do you think there would be a way to teleport these playerheads to a certain player so they don't need a plugin to get a nickname?

I have a question. you may not know this but all the sites ive gone to get colored Lores had failed I tried &1 &2 &3 ect. copying and pasteing the s on top of s symbol but nothing works and all I know is that you need NBTEdit to color it and im wondering how you color names in VINALLA not in NBTEdit and I have no clue how PS. I like to do everything in vinalla not NBTEditor or Mods ;)

[@dragnoz]

you cant. you need to edit the NBT. its because of the §.

[@Deemel_]

Im just asking but someone said that sometime there are added something to fox the problem with minecraft not able to do the §.

I really want to do a custom Enchantment thing because of this and im going to release a video of making them soon but I want to do it with the thing. but I guess ill make a v2 if I happen to find out after I make the video

[@CalebWolf]

***** how would you get rid of it? i made a mistake...

[@WalkerEMC]

The Mighty Channel /kill @e[type=ArmorStand] this will kill all armorstands in the world or do /kill @e[type=ArmorStand,r=10] kills armor stands within 10 blocks of radius, e stands for entity

[@CalebWolf]

ThanksThis would help ALOT

[@val59000MC]

***** Thanks it's much more efficient than skulls ! Also if during the creation of a custom map, you need to use plugins (worldedit, etc ...) check also this plugin, works in 1.8. It allows to rename entities with colored names without the use of an external program such as mcedit dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/mobname/

[@blurook]
