Fixed #236 — The issue with 1.17.1 and 1.18.1 that made splatter map unable to be placed has been fixed.

This version is only compatible with Minecraft 1.17 to 1.18.1. This was tested on Spigot and Paper, both 1.17 to 1.18. If there are any errors on a 1.17+ version of Spigot/Paper, please contact us on our support server or create an issue (better).

4.2.1 — Permission and Cliffhanger Update finally allow a full official support of Minecraft Java Edition 1.17 and 1.18 and Java 17. This comes with bug fixes and new features. We are working on the next big update: 5.0. If you want to know more about this, check our 5.0 milestone.

This version is only compatible with Minecraft 1.17 to 1.18. This was tested on Spigot and Paper, both 1.17 to 1.18. If there are any errors on a 1.17+ version of Spigot/Paper, please contact us on our support server or create an issue (better).

⚠️ Compatibility with 1.17.1 seems to be sub-optimal; see #236.

Changelog of 4.2.0

• 1.17 support.
• Permissions to limit the number of map/image used/owned is now available. (permissions imageonmap.mapLimit.XX and imageonmap.imageLimit.XX where XX is an integer and will define the limit allowed for the player).
• Added a whitelist for trusted image hosting websites. Add an images-hostnames-whitelist list in config.yml, and write every URL prefix you want to allow. If you want to allow everything, remove the images-hostnames-whitelist list entirely, or empty it. There is also a permission to ignore the allow list: imageonmap.bypasswhitelist.
  
  Code (YAML):

  images-hostnames-whitelist :
  - i.imgur.com
  - cdn.discord.com
• Images are now protected against non player based interaction. (Bye bye sneaky skeleton that used to grief art!)
• Now by default when deploying a map the item frame turn invisible and returned to visible hen removing the map from the frame (there is a permission to allow this behavior: imageonmap.placeinvisiblesplattermap).
• Bug fixes & optimizations.
  • Dropped migrator (no more error when reloading or when sometimes loading the server).
  • Fixed an issue when resizing with resize 0 0.
  • Fixed a map loading issue. (map did not render at all if they weren't in a player inventory.

4.1 — Moderation Update gives mods or admins commands to see maps for other players, to give maps, but also to update maps already placed in the world. You can also use ImageOnMap commands from the console or from command blocks, opening a whole new realm of automation around ImageOnMap (read: commands executed from skripts and data-packs should work).

We also fixed some bugs that were reported by lots of people.

This version is only compatible with Minecraft 1.15+.

• Added /maptool update to change the image attached to a map.
• Added /givemap to give a map of a specific player to another.

  • /maptool list no longer throw an exception.
  • Fixed an issue where the bottom left map that not render like it should.
  • Fixed the GUI rename issue that was the cause of inventory loss.

The first stable release of this 4.0 branch is out!

4.0 – Subtle Comfort is a bit light in content, but we have unified part of the plugin (splatter map) and we prepared upcoming changes with required zLib features. The next update should be bigger and will add more stuff : thumbnail, optimization, possibility to deploy and place item frames in creative mode, creating interactive map that can run a command if you click on a specific frame…

This version is only compatible with Minecraft 1.15+. Compatibility for 1.14 and below is dropped for now but in the future we will try to bring it back. Use 4.0 pre1 for now, if you require 1.13.2 – 1.14.4 compatibility.

Many thanks to Vlammar who did most of the work!

This version brings 1.15 support to ImageOnMap. 1.14 and below are not supported by this version—please use 4.0-pre1 or older if you need to stay on 1.14.4 or below.

Many thanks to Vlammar who did most of the upgrade work!

Here is the full changelog:

• 1.15 compatibility (now building against a 1.15-compatible zLib version).
  • This version is only compatible with Minecraft 1.15 and later—for older Minecraft versions, please use 4.0-pre1 or older.
• Improved some translations in French (thanks to Gabriel Cnudde).

This version is a pre-release. It has been tested on 1.15 and 1.15.2, including data migration from ImageOnMap 3.0 (nothing has changed so it should run smoothly), without problems; this being said, bugs may still be there here ad there in some edge cases. I'll test this version with real players on my server a little bit before posting a final stable 4.0 release.

Missing features we wish to address in the future are:

• posters auto-deployment on the ground or the ceiling;
• advanced image processing before import (cropping, resizing, etc.) using a simple GUI rather than complex command-line arguments (both would still be available, for power-users).

As a side note regarding BukkitDev, the version published there is not updated because BukkitDev somehow lost my account. If I recover it, I'll update the resource there too.

I'll try to update more frequently in the future. I already have plans for 4.1 with useful tweaks for creative mode and images resizing. Stay tunned!

ImageOnMap for 1.13+1.14—it's here! Yes! Finally!

First of all, I want to again apologize for the huge update delay. I had a long no-Minecraft period being really busy for other projects, and it's sometimes hard to keep up on every update when you don't play the game. Unfortunately, I was the only maintainer left. Fortunately, I came back and I'm no longer the only one!

Now, for the changelog:

• Added 1.13.2 and 1.14 compatibility
• Dropped compatibility with 1.12 and lower
• Improved some UIs
• Added support for images' resize to a specific size: you can do /tomap https://url/image.png resize 2 2 to get a 2×2 frames image.
  
• Status messages are sent in the action bar instead of the chat
• Added back statistics (you can opt-out in plugins/bStats/config.yml)
• Added an update checker

Thanks to Markus Lechner for his help on zLib underlying 1.14 update!

This version is a pre-release. It has been tested on 1.13 and 1.14, including data migration from ImageOnMap 3.0 (nothing has changed so it should run smoothly), without problems; this being said, bugs may still be there here ad there in some edge cases. I'll test this version with real players on my server a little bit before posting a final stable 4.0 release.

Even without updates for almost a year, we hit 54k downloads here and 59k on BukkitDev—that's an astonishing total of 113k downloads! Thank you so much everyone!

I'll try to update more frequently in the future. I already have plans for 4.1 with useful tweaks for creative mode and images resizing. Stay tunned!
