Overview
Magic is a plugin that adds powerful magic wands and items to your server. With over 100 spells (plus 100 more HP spells!), a variety of wand templates, and complete customization, you can use Magic to craft a unique experience for your server.
Spells in Magic revolve around unique wand items. Players do not "know" spells, they find, buy, or craft wands that do. Wands may be bound to a specific player (meaning no other player may use them), and a wand may be set to stay with the player if they die. In this way, the spells are somewhat bound to a player, but in Magic it is really all about the wands.
Resource Pack
For the full Magic experience, you will also want to use the Magic resource pack:
https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/elmakers/Magic/Magic-RP.zip
For 1.8 : https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/elmakers/Magic/Magic-RP-5.zip
You are free to mix this into your own RP, or use it directly.
The resource pack tries to avoid changing anything important, but it does replace the following items (which are not craftable anymore using the default Magic configs)
- Wood hoe (the default wand)
- Gold axe (Engineer/Architect wands)
- Gold hoe (The Wolf - admin wand)
- Gold spade (Broomsticks)
- Zombie horse textures and sounds (Broomstick riding)
- Command block texture (for automata)
- Ender portal frame inventory texture (not the in-game block), for Magic hat.
- Chainmail armor set, for wizard's robes.
Please see the Magic home page on github for up-to-date information!

Is there a way that I could go about setting up a market for spells using Chest Shop (Obviously admin shops)? It says it needs an item ID, but the spells aren't items.
Otherwise a fantastic plugin, it's a lot of fun. While my friend and I were testing it out for my server, we started with the idea we'd just make sure nothing was too overpowered and ended up dueling for about 2 hours with all the cool different spells.
In reply to theroundishllama:
Glad you're enjoying it!
So magic items use NBT data. If chest shop works only with item ids, then it's not going to work out. You'd need a plugin that lets you put an item in a shop in-game so it saves all of the data.
If you've using Citizens, it's really easy to set up a shop using the built-in NPC shops, see:
https://github.com/elBukkit/MagicPlugin/wiki/Shops
Or you could stick it in a command block, since it's just an admin shop it'd probably be OK.
Hey! I just updated my server to 1.13 and the spell aparecium isn't activating levers and buttons, it doesn't do anything, could you explain me?
In reply to xapat:
This has been fixed in the latest dev build: http://jenkins.elmakers.com/job/MagicPlugin/2907/com.elmakers.mine.bukkit.plugins$Magic/
Hey man! I would like to know how can you just don't make the normal items change their texture? I mean, textures change when an item gets broken, but I don't want normal items to change their texture, only the wands and magic stuff. Thx
In reply to xapat:
That's how the RP works.

Does this Plugin for Aternos 1.14.3 Paper/Bukkit?
This can still work in an advanced world?
Does everyone on the server need to use te texture pack?
Can I use the Magic Reource Pack with Faithful or another Resource pack at the same time?
In reply to aetherxxiii:
I don't know what Aternos is, but it should work on Paper.
I don't know what an advanced world is.
Everyone will need to use the resource pack if you're using the default configs. However you can customize to use normal items or player skulls for spell icons and wands if you want. There are some built in example configs to help. The RP makes it a much richer experience, though.
You can mix the RP with other RPs if you have experience making RPs. For the most part you just need to copy all the files together, but if your other RP uses some of the same items as Magic it gets a little more complicated.
How do you use the portal spell and what is Wolf House?
In reply to Aresiel0666:
Portal was broken but should be fixed in the latest build.
Wolf house makes a giant regenerating house. It requires command blocks to be enabled to work.
Can you create your own spells? using this for an RPG my and friends are making
In reply to Chrisumaru:
Yes, definitely. The plugin is entirely config-driven, all of the survival spells can be found here:
https://github.com/elBukkit/MagicPlugin/tree/master/Magic/src/main/resources/examples/survival/spells
Instructions for making custom spells can be found on the wiki:

Does the magic plugin work with Mythic Mobs? I've been trying to get a mob to cast a spell but it just doesn't seem to be working :(
In reply to NZER000:
It used to, using the command skill. Not sure if it still works, I don't support mythic mobs anymore so it's up to you to get it working if you want it :)

Does this work on version 1.13.2?
Edit: Nevermind, Found out it does :)

In reply to elBukkit:
thx
I think I was just misunderstanding the way the upgrade the wands (by right clicking instead of physically putting the wand in the enchanting table GUI) otherwise the plugin actually works perfectly and surprisingly more smoothly ever since I've updated to the spigot exp. 1.14.2.
