Custom Villager Names

Hello everyone, I was wondering how I can spawn a villager with a custom name, thanks so much!

 

have you tried anything?

 

Niknea
setCustomName("name") & setCustomNameVisible(true)

 

Ronbo So how would I set it when I spawn a villager, as I want something like /v1 and it will spawn a villager with that name.

Ronbo Ok I made a command that will spawn a villager, how/where will I add the method you suggested in my code? Here is my code so far.

Code:java

package me.niknea.Mobs;
 
import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandExecutor;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.bukkit.entity.CreatureType;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
 
 
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
public class V1 implements CommandExecutor
{
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args)
    {
        Player player = (Player) sender;
        if(cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("v1"))
        {
            player.getWorld().spawnCreature(player.getLocation(), CreatureType.VILLAGER);
        }
        return true;
    }
 
}
 

Thanks again!

 

there is actuall a very simple way. just take a spawn villager, than put it in the anvil, then click ont eh text that says spawn villager. chage it to whatever you want.

asi was saying, put the spawn villager in anvil, then you need to click on the txt that says spawn villager. change it to whatever you want

 

Don't use deprecated methods.

Code:java

 
Entity ent = player.getWorld().spawnEntity(player.getLocation(), EntityType.VILLAGER);
((Villager)ent).setCustomName("NewName");
((Villager)ent).setCustomNameVisible(true);
 

 

no seriously it works i tried it too.

 

It don´t works for me.

Code:java

LivingEntity ent = p.getWorld().spawnCreature(p.getLocation(), EntityType.VILLAGER);
                ent.setCustomName("");
                ent.setCustomNameVisible(true);

A villager is a LivingEntity.
