Items

This is an old version of this page. You can view the most recent version or browse the history.

Making custom items in Mythic Mobs is quite easy. Unlike mobs and skills however, items made with this plugin do not come with any special or unique options. Any items you create with MythicMobs could also be created by Minecraft commands, though making the items using the MythicMobs configurations is much more comfortable.

Of the following options available for items, only internal_name and Id are required. All other options/attributes are completely optional.

You can make any number of files in the \plugins\MythicMobs\Items folder, and they can be named anything you like as long as the file ends in .yml.

Breaking Down The Item Configuration

Internal_Name

This string will be how your item is referenced internally in MythicMobs and can be any name you like. Must be alphanumeric, NO SPACES ALLOWED.

example_item:

Id

The base material to use for your item, it can be any valid material that's listed here.

example_item:
  Id: leather_chestplate

Template

Items can use Templating like mobs, while referencing other items.
Only one template can be used at a time.

NBT

Sets what NBT tags to put on your items. This allows cross-over with a lot of other plugins, or just for storing custom information.

Before you add an NBT tag to your items, you have to know SNBT formatting. A tag value's type can be changed by adding a prefix to the tag value:

Prefixes	int/	float/	double/	byte/	bool/	boolean/

Let's convert this snbt: {name1:123,name2:"sometext1",name3:{subname1:456,subname2:"sometext2"}} to mythic formatting:

example_item:
  Id: STICK
  NBT:
    name1: int/123
