Overview

Cosmetics Paper 1.21.x Java 21 v1.0.0

CobaltiaEffets bundles everything that makes a player recognizable and the game more pleasant day to day: animated name effects (chat, tab list, nameplate above the head), a single wardrobe for hats, backpacks, titles and companions, a gem shop fully described in YAML, a notification banner above the hotbar, and a set of quality-of-life features (chat mentions, /rtp with a daily quota, paid AFK zone, /money, /furnace, night vision…).

The plugin was built for the Cobaltia server: some features rely on the server resource pack or on its core plugin. Every integration is optional and cleanly switches off when the related plugin is missing — see Integrations.

Name effects

15 animated effects (shine, wave, sparkle, heartbeat…) applied to the name according to the player’s rank, with rank gradients, a preview in the menu and placeholders for chat, tab and nameplates.

Wardrobe

A tabbed menu to equip hats and backpacks, name effect, chat titles and companion, with pagination and a “Remove all” button.

Companions

127 cosmetic mini-mobs (including jockeys and a mini dragon) that follow the player, rendered with packets, split into four rarities with weighted random draws.

Shop

A menu-based shop described in boutique.yml: categories, items, two prices to choose from, once-per-season purchases, random boosters and commands with random picks.

Notification banner

Short-lived messages are drawn in a banner above the hotbar: fixed items on the left (job XP, AFK), queued notifications on the right, never overlapping.

Richer chat

@name mentions with a notification, @item to show the held item, leaderboard ranks and clan in front of the name, which players can hide.

RTP, AFK and jobs

/rtp with a daily quota per rank, a paid AFK zone with a daily cap, anti-abuse protections for jobs (AFK fishing, kill farming).

Server comfort

/money, /furnace, /nightvision, /give for Nexo items, tab list split by world group, tab sorting, custom MOTD and join/quit messages.
