About NBTEditor
From SpigotMCIn-game NBT editor for Bukkit. Edit entities and items with ease. 150,000+ downloads on since 2013.
NBTEditor allows easy customization of many aspects of Minecraft, through the modification of NBT tags. Creating custom potions and tools with powerful enchantments is as easy as running a few commands. And with the help of the Book of Souls, it's possible to create highly complex entities and spawners with ease.
Features include:
- Robust system to edit of all entities and spawners using a book based UI (Book of Souls);
- Conversion entities into '/summon' commands;
- Customization of items (name, lore, unbreakable, modifiers, colors on leather armor etc.);
- Item enchanting with no limits;
- Creation of custom potions;
- Conversion of items into '/give' commands;
- Tile customization (spawners, beacons, chests etc.);
- Conversion of tiles into '/setblock' commands;
- and more...
Included is also an 'Item Storage' command to keep track of your Books of Souls and other edited items.
The variable system used by the NBTEditor ensures that only valid NBT changes are performed while providing a standard way to make those changes. Arbitrary NBT modifications are not possible.
</aside>The NBTEditor was first released back on 2013 on dev.bukkit.org, where it has 150,000+ downloads. Since version 2.0 I'm also posting it here, the files are still hosted on dev.bukkit.org.Click to expand...
