Release
5.1.0

ryderbelserion released CrazyCrates version 5.1.0 on June 23, 2026

Changes 🔨

  • Improved performance when checking placeholders via PlaceholderAPI
    • This has also lessened maintenace burden internally!
  • Improved updating the examples folder.
  • Removed LegacyItemBuilder as maintaining 2 ItemBuilders was not fun.
    • There should be no need to change configurations unless you use HideItemFlags: true
    • If you do use HideItemFlags, Click Me
  • Improved migration types by looping through the folders instead of the FileManager cache which led to unnecessary checks.
  • Improved verbose logging across the plugin.
  • Improved placeholder migrations in config migrator.
  • Improved /crazycrates teleport <crate_id>.
  • Improved placeholder parsing throughout the plugin.
  • Replaced {key_amount} from the not_enough_keys message with {amount}.
    • {key_amount} is no longer usable.
  • Placeholders that normally could've only been used in the DisplayName of items can now be used in DisplayLore as well.
  • Cleaned up code related to sending messages to the player, or broadcasting messages to the server.
  • Removed an unnecessary prize loop for Cosmic Crate, if we do the math right initially... we shouldn't need this.
  • Switched to using StringUtils#tryParseInt which uses an optional for better verbosity instead of Integer#parseInt.
  • Updated default configuration files.

Crate Changes

  • Improved tracking code for crates.
  • Improved performance & readability when building crate objects.
  • Improved performance when loading/adding crate locations.
  • Improved cleaning up crate tasks, and other caches when a crate opening ends.
    • This should fix a few other weird issues.

Key Changes

  • Fixed a logical issue with taking keys using /crazycrates mass-open or sneaking on QuickCrate after giving the prizes, it should be the other way around to minimize the free loot gain if something happens.
    • In addition to this, if they are keys not taken for any reason like your inventory being full, they should be refunded to you.
Crate Types
  • CrateOnTheGo now passes through the openCrate method, so things like Required Keys, and other features the other crates have are now respected.

Item Layout

  • By default, use-different-items-layout is set to true now.
    • Existing servers with an up-to-date config will not have to change anything.
Item Changes
  • Removed the option to configure the spawner preview.
    • This is pointless, because they all look the same in crate menus.
  • Updated glow configuration, Glowing now accepts values like "add_glow", "remove_glow", or "none"
    • Existing true/false should work, but you should update it as soon ass possible.

Removals

Permissions

  • Removed the use-new-permission-system toggle, and keep the original behaviour everyone liked.

Additions

Key Placeholders

  • Added shorthand formatting to key placeholders, so 1,000 would become 1k and so on.

Plugin Support

Note: replace <item_id> with the correct identifier from the custom item plugins. Second Note: Any place you can input diamond_axe allows you to use this format. Third Note: You can still use emerald_helmet as in direct ids as well

  • Added support for HMCWraps.
    • DisplayItem: hmcwraps@<item_id>
  • This introduces new formats for other plugins like Oraxen, Nexo, CraftEngine, and ItemsAdder
    • DisplayItem: nexo@<item_id>
    • DisplayItem: oraxen@<item_id>
    • DisplayItem: itemsadder@<item_id>
    • DisplayItem: craftengine@<item_id>

New Commands

  • Added /crates version which includes the git commit, previous git commit, and current version.
    • If any value is not found, it will return "N/A"

Other

  • Added custom item support in areas that didn't have it.
  • Added text shadow support for FancyHolograms.

Configuration Changes

Glowing

  • Glowing no longer is true/false, however existing configurations using true/false will still work as we look for that internally as well.
  # Should the item glow?
  # Available Types: add_glow, remove_glow, none
  Glowing: "none"

Hidden Components

If you are using Hidden-Components or Components in places, It has been replaced by flags.components, Existing configurations will still work.

Bugs Fixed 🐛

  • Fixed a bugs with incorrect messages being used for things, or variables in places.
  • Fixed a bug with the log method when the uuid is null causing a console error to appear.
  • getPrize not filtering out invalid weights properly leading to weird prize winnings.
    • We did the correct check for the totalWeight variable, but when looping through prizes. Prizes with -1 weight were still present.
    • If you add -1 to a value, it increases the value which can cause issues with prize chances.
    • Any value with 0.0, 0, or numbers less than 0 will be considered filler items.
  • Paginated guis creating a second page despite there not being enough items for it.
  • Log messages potentially not being saved.
  • Updated the ExcellentCrates migrator which fixed a few migration bugs
  • Fixed an important issue with /crazycrates transfer.
    • If you cannot update, I recommend denying the permission to use this command.
  • Fixed issues with /crazycrates take/give & /crazycrates mass-open by clamping the amount to be a required amount.
  • CMI in recent updates, whether it's CMI Lib or CMI API, in short. the API broke, and I forked it, compiled it, published it to my repo... and it seems to work for now
    • It seems I shall be maintaining it until the heat death of the universe.
      • #876
      • #9919 CMI's issue on Zrips repository that is closed by a stupid bot.
  • /crazycrates debug was not working properly.
  • Use correct variables when logging messages.
  • Fix multiple issues with custom heads/skulls not being built.
  • Use correct message when a player has no keys when doing /keys.
  • Fixed an issue with mass-open where if any of the rows were null, or the tiers were empty. the keys you would've spent would've been lost. They get refunded now.
  • Message responses when running commands not being sent to console.
