How to create an NPC with ServerNPC
Creating an NPC
You can create it in various ways. The first and most common it's Mojang names. But here's the list of the supported methods in ServerNPC.
Mojang
Mineskin
Self Skin
Mojang
To create a NPC with Mojang name it's very very simple.
/npc create test1 iSnakeBuzz_
If you typed this command, you will notice the NPC has spawned with my skin, but you can change my name (iSnakeBuzz_) for anyone name.
Only if the name it's a Premium account, if not, it will be appear as a Steve.
Mineskin
MineSkin.org allows you to generate skin texture data signed by Mojang. These can be used on ingame skull blocks or to change a player's skin using some packet magic :).
Said by Mineskin.
It allows you to upload Skins without needing a Minecraft Account. Well, you can use the generated IDS in ServerNPC to create fantastic NPCs.
/npc create test2 420161720
/npc create test2 https://minesk.in/1ecaf3f7322340e4871c9cd541f4aaa6
And done, you've created a NPC with Mineskin. Very simple, right?
Self Skin
Well, to use this, you need PlaceholderAPI installed in your Server. If you don't know what it is, I fully recommend you to read the official page. But simplifying that, it's a library of placeholders.
First of all you need to install the Player extension to continue.
Execute both commands to a correct installation of the extension. Then we can continue with the NPC creation.
/npc create test3 %player_name%
Well, that very easy, if you don't see your Skin, probably you are a cracked player, at the moment we are working on a fix to work with SkinsRestorer but do not have a estimated time for that.
