Overview

Light-Show

Spigot Plugin for creating light shows/concerts in Minecraft. It works by simulating ingame effects like guardian and beacon beams.

Demo

Here you can see a snippet of a light-show I made:

How it works

A surface level description would be: It uses the internet to receive signals form a lighting control software which can be translated into Minecraft. Going more into detail it receives DMX512 signals via the protocol Art-Net to filter out values for ingame fixtures.

How one can use it

It might seem complex at first, but it really isn't once you get the hang of it:

Install plugin on your server.
Setup config.json and depending on what you want fixture configs.
Register fixtures by adding them as DmxEntries.
Install a lighting control software (MagicQ, Dot2, GrandMA2, GrandMA3, etc.).
Learn installed lighting control software (ChamSys has tutorials for MagicQ).
Setup fixtures in your software. See Fixtures for coding info.
Connect lighting control software to Minecraft via Art-Net.
Start Art-Net connectivity by using command /show start
Light away!

Troubleshooting

The reason for not having any dependencies is that I made everything myself. This, however, was supported by checking out how others implemented what I was trying to do.

Plugin stops working when using guardian beams on 1.19.2

Was running a demo show on 1.19.2 and got this stacktrace

After you encounter the stacktrace. You can't stop or start the show again since it seems like the scheduler just died.

Include IntelliJ (and/or Gradle) project files

Would you be able to include either a Gradle project or the IntelliJ project files? This would make it easier for others to set up and build the project locally to contribute changes. A gradle project would be preferred, too, to allow doing CI builds and using IDEs other than Gradle - there's documentation here to create a IntelliJ project to a Gradle project.
