/library/MinecraftAvatar/ControllerPublic/Register.php You're going to have to do the same thing.

It's 4 lines of code.
4 lines of code which you need to apply again and again for each update, and cannot be easily disabled.

Writing a full-fledged addon isn't that hard, especially since you've already written this.
 
If you want a full fledged add-on you can pay $5 for this one > http://xenforo.com/community/resources/minecraft-paid-username-validation.988/
Here is a repackaged full-fledged addon. It also fixes a bug where it is not throwing errors correctly ($errors array does not exist in that function).

This only works with 1.2.

I don't really want to maintain it, but I suggest putting the username check on a Deferred task in case MC.net derps (which happens more than you think)

The only reason i have not made an add-on is 1. because i don't know php. and 2. because i cbf to get into XF development. I only released this because i had permission from the two credited in OP. I just wanted to share with others that may run minecraft related forums.

You don't? Since you released the code I thought you did.

Oh well. I'll maintain it in my spare time I guess.
 
Hmm, I added these four lines of code to Register.php on the right location, and added the phrase. I still can register an account where the username would return false on minecraft.net. I cleared my opcode cache, but it still seems to not work, am I forgetting something?

This is the code from Register.php:

Code:
        /**
        * Gets data from the registration form
        *
        * @return array [$data, $passwords]
        */
        protected function _getRegistrationDataFromInput()
        {
                $data = $this->_input->filter(array(
                        'username'  => XenForo_Input::STRING,
                        'email'      => XenForo_Input::STRING,
                        'timezone'  => XenForo_Input::STRING,
                        'gender'    => XenForo_Input::STRING,
                        'dob_day'    => XenForo_Input::UINT,
                        'dob_month'  => XenForo_Input::UINT,
                        'dob_year'  => XenForo_Input::UINT,
                ));

        $sRes= file_get_contents( 'http://www.minecraft.net/haspaid.jsp?user='. rawurlencode( $data['username'] ) );
        if( strpos( $sRes, 'true' )=== FALSE )
        {
                $errors[] = new XenForo_Phrase('invalid_minecraft_user');
        }


                $passwords = $this->_input->filter(array(
                        'password' => XenForo_Input::STRING,
                        'password_confirm' => XenForo_Input::STRING,
                ));

                return array($data, $passwords);
        }

If you have another add-on that has a Register.php that would do it. You need to make sure any other add-ons with a Register.php have those 4 lines of code as well. MinecraftAvatar add-on has it's own Register.php, so if you're using that, you need to add those 4 lines.
 
To my knowledge I don't have addons that costumize the Register.php (I checked by doing a File Health Integrity check from xenforo, it didn't show up in the list)

It is actually a bug in your code mod. See my repackaged add on for fix.
