DecentDisplays

DecentDisplays is a completely painless way to add beautiful holograms and text displays to your Minecraft server. Instead of wrestling with confusing setups, you can easily create, edit, and animate displays with multiple pages directly in the game. It handles the complicated technical details behind the scenes so you can focus on making your world look amazing.

Features

• Multiple Pages: If you have a lot to say, you can break your text up into multiple pages that cycle and keep your players engaged.
• Custom Animations: Bring your server to life by applying custom animations directly to your displays.
• High Performance: Built carefully under the hood to ensure your holograms render incredibly fast with zero server lag, even with hundreds of displays.
• PlaceholderAPI Integration: We fully support PlaceholderAPI, allowing you to show player specific stats, server info, and anything else you might need.
• Floating Items and Blocks: You can display actual items (like <item:DIAMOND_SWORD>) or blocks (like <block:GRASS_BLOCK>) floating in the air.
• Player Heads: Display the custom skull of any player using <head:PLAYER_NAME>. You can even use placeholders to show the head of whoever is looking at the display.
• Rainbow Text: Type &u before any text to make it cycle through rainbow colors automatically without needing animation files.
• Backup Text for Placeholders: If a placeholder is empty or broken, you can set a fallback message so it does not look messy. Example: <fallback:%player_rank%>Player<fallback/> will show "Player" if the rank is not found.
• Custom Design Settings: Change the size of your displays, hide the default gray backgrounds, make text see-through, add shadows, or control how they rotate to face players.
• Smooth Movement: Set your displays to move smoothly between locations or grow and shrink gently over time.
