Title: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server ( New Server IP )
Post by: Stuffman on September 05, 2011, 08:51:30 PM
- MotK MINECRAFT SERVER -
(http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/1112/20110905162201.jpg)

Welcome to the official MotK Minecraft server, Claes!
Address: 64.31.14.242
Live Map: http://64.31.14.242:8123/
Ops: Stuffman (Jaimas) and Dr. Strafe (Dr_Strafe)

NOTICE! This is a Whitelisted server! That means you cannot join unless I've added you to our Whitelist. If you'd like to request access, simply PM me or Dr. Strafe (remember to give us your Minecraft username!!). Note that this means you must be a member of MotK to join; if you've obviously only joined the forum to get access to the server, then I'll likely deny the request. This is due to griefing problems we've had with outsiders in the past. Sorry!

Current plugins in use:
Permissions: Controls access to other plugins.
LogBlock: Logs all changes to blocks and chests. Anti-griefing tool.
LWC (Lightweight Chest Protection): Allows you to lock your chests, furnaces, doors, etc to stop people from looting your stuff.
Essentials: Provides various utility commands to players and ops.
Multiverse: Allows us to have more than one map. Put in /warp world2 to go to the world2 spawn.
WorldEdit: Allows ops to make large-scale edits to the map. Contact us if you'd like to make a request, but you'd better have a good reason!
WorldGuard: Provides various protections to players and the map if necessary. Currently not in use, except for Pumpkin Scuba, which prevents drowning damage if you're wearing a pumpkin helmet!
dynmap: Enables the Live Map linked above.
ServerEvents: Broadcasts fun messages when a player dies.
SheepFeed: Feed a sheep bread to regrow it's wool! It can only regrow natural colors.
NoOrbs: You don't drop experience orbs when you die, preventing the lag caused by it.
NoEnderman: Endermen do not pick up blocks. (This will be removed once Endermen are adjusted in 1.9.)
CustomCrafting: Enables some custom recipes. See this post (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,10734.msg733112.html#msg733112) for details.

Some useful commands:
/list - see who's online!
/spawn - teleport back to spawn.
/warp world2 - go to world 2.
/sethome - sets your home warp point at your current position.
/home - teleports you back to your home warp point.
/cprivate - enter this and then click a chest (or other object you would like secured) to lock it, meaning only you can access it's contents.

Rules:
This is a friendly community!
- No killing other players.
- No breaking, altering, or otherwise messing with other players' stuff.
- No stealing from other players.

Suggestions:
- Be wary of Creepers around people's structures. If some damage occurs, please do your best to repair it.
- Put up signs! Name your buildings and let people know who made them. It's fun!



Alright folks, server's back up. I've upgraded to the latest versions of each plugin (except Permissions, because newer versions won't work) and completely cleared the old world data. If anything was corrupted it should be fixed now, and hopefully this will end our crashing problems.

Obviously, we are no longer using Phoenix Terrain Mod. You can now take it easy and build on some nice flat continents.

An important change is that we are now using CommandBook + MyHome + MyWarp instead of Essentials. This is due to a supposed incompatibility with WorldEdit. The only real change you'll likely notice is the syntax for /sethome, which is now /home set. Note: the command will tell you you can invite people to your home, because MyHome normally allows you to warp to other people's homes, but this function has been disabled.

You also have access to /warp but no warp points are created as of this post.

Strafe will be working on importing structures from the previous world you would like to have, or in fact any world before it. Simply scout a site for your structure and inform him that you've found a spot for it. Please be patient, as this means Strafe will be very very busy the next few days.

Hina willing, this will be the last time we have to create a new world. Once 1.8 hits, we will install the Multiverse mod and generate a different world with it while retaining this world as the main one.

If you're curious, the brick border in the screenshot above indicates where the spawn protection ends :V

Please report any bugs to me immediately!

for the new world i have a idea about the placing of the buildings it would be great when we form a city with a surrounding city wall (the great wall of kaleidoscope)
i wanted to know if somebody else like the idea    (i know i post this also in the old one but i asked about it if its okay)

Also, feel free to join Our IRC channel (http://webchat.ppirc.net/?channels=touhou-minecraft) if you want to chat outside the game, or get the attention of either Stuffman or myself.

We also have a Minecraft room in the MotK Teamspeak server: triela.shrinemaiden.org:9988

I'm just about to finish up all of the schematics. Scout out a place and  then track me down. Find a Strafe, win a prize!

Alright. The long, long day is nearing its end. All of the planned schematics have been saved, and roughly half of them have been placed in the new world. I'll be keeping an eye out for any new arrivals that haven't gotten anything imported yet. If not, you guys can always track me down later. Tomorrow, I will import the community farms and the wool center, as well as finish up the WorldGuard protections for the community areas.

In celebration, I have encoded and uploaded that video I recorded to youtube here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgw4u0IWuR0).

this pisses me off. i am sure this has happened before to others but i still thought i would mention it. as i was mining i ran into a dungeo that i was mostly ready for. apperantly not enough since i died anyway but when i went back all my stuff was gone. i took only about a minute and a half 2 minutes at the most and it was already gone! i had a diamond pick and sword. both still at nearly full usage but now they are gone  >:(

sorry, I only kiss lolis :p

I tried to get that stupid SkinEdit running, but it seems that Java + my Graphic Drivers have problems with each other ???.
When I call the programm it with wjava.exe my screen goes black and windows7 restarts the driver.
Is this a problem because I have Aero running? I would like to make a skin of Yuuka in her pyjama :V

I hate Java for being a stupid program language (C# is much much better :P)

Maybe you have the same problem  :V

Aero shouldn't be a problem. Try reinstalling Java and update GPU drivers.
On another note I support pajamas Yuuka skin.

I'm not sure. The version of Skin Edit that I use is "Alpha3_pre7_fix". I just open the folder and run the McSkinEdit.jar file.

Schematic Progress Report! According to my notes, the following schematics still need to be placed:
-Evil Eye Sigma
-EP Arena
-Chen's Soup Kitchen
-Sunny's Suspension Bridge
-Jimmy's Sandstone tower
-Dr.Rawr's underground home (abandoned, but saved just in case)
-Molten's house
-Molten's Maze Arena
-PX's giant Mob Grinder frame (icy lake included :3)
-Mushroom Kingdom: Blue, Purple, Pink, Green, and NETHER

As always, I am available to import other schematics from either of our previous worlds. Just track me down~

I'm not sure how up to date I am on the server stability issues with the plugins,  but if we are still having trouble with plugins causing the crashes, then maybe we should hold off on adding more mods.

I highly doubt it. As this affects core gameplay, this requires both server-side and client-side modification, which means that (1) we have to keep on updating (and 1.8 mod support has uncertain method of implementation with binaries) and (2) everyone has to have the mod installed as well or things will crash on their end. For convenience reasons we'll probably stick with the former only (and leave a few client-side mods such as Optifine left open for clients, as these do not affect core gameplay).

Notch just posted something about 1.8 on his blog, explaining how fun programming is.
We'll have 3d snouts for pigs, fleeing animals, etc.
He also said he was working on something else right now, so it won't be out before at least a week, maybe 2, so the 1.7.3 world still has plenty of time before Multiverse is used.

Daily restart complete. :V You all may play again.

REQUEST:

Any skin editors, can you make me a Shino skin? :3
I could take a crack at it later. I forget, are there any color pictures of Shino out there?

So basically our current foremost suspicion is that McMyAdmin is causing the crashing. My reasoning is that if it was a problem with our plugins, it would make more sense for only Minecraft to crash and that MCMA would be able to automatically reboot it, since it's a separate process. Therefore:
a) The crash glitch is so bad that it eats all the CPU and memory on the server causing MCMA to fail (this strikes me as unlikely because then how would linux keep running), OR
b) MCMA itself is crashing for some reason.

Normally that would mean the proper course of action would be to figure out how to just run server bukkit without booting MCMA, but rather than that, Strafe called to my attention that Provision Host is working on their own control panel to replace MCMA, so we're going to wait and check that out first.

Until then, yay restarts :V

Do it yourself :V
No, no, I'll try making one. I WHOLEHEARTEDLY approve this idea :getdown:
Wish granted! I just quickly laid it down. Depending on MC and/or personal taste, you may need to edit further in SkinEdit.

You know the drill - log on to MC website, profile, upload skin.
EDIT: Old version pics attached, go down here (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,10734.msg710943.html#msg710943) for the new version.

OK, good.

In the meantime I updated Shino here. Less contrast in the noise and a slight dither change.

NOTE: It still has problems with the livefeed, as in the face won't render at all, leaving just a few black pixels. It works fine in-game, though.

Nah. The server didn't crash. It was just lagging rather badly while I was moving PX's SUPER GRINDER. 1.5 million blocks worth of data. :V It took a couple of tries to get it positioned correctly, but you never came back once everything stabilized.

On that note, I went ahead and repaired the ice floor of the grinder. I also had to do some slight fixes to the area since the game choked so badly during the move. Most notably, I had to repair a couple large world holes that appeared where the old grinder was positioned. Go out for a swim, and fall through a gap.  :wat:

Hopefully, the grinder's new location will be more welcome to anyone who is building in the area.

I suggest using mcedit to import everything into a 1.8 world when the time comes.

Otherwise you'll have "1.7/1.8 boundries" and they will look very ugly.

Long time no see DDR! ^^

I am seconding this suggestion, actually. Chances are we won't even be touching the 1.7 world come 1.8 once we get our things over there.

Also we can put everything in better locations (namely my stupidly-close-to-spawn tower).

EDIT: Dynmap has issues with newer skins. Both my Shino skin (PX) and Lyrica (Shady) do not show their faces. They were updated quite late yesterday and today, and they are fine in-game.

Yeah, once the new update is in place on the server, any new chunks will be generated from 1.8's standards. I'm not sure if this would cause us any problems, aside from visually.

If we do have to forgo the current 1.7.3 world in favor of going 1.8 entirely, then I'll oblige. I'll import the schematics again. Note: If it comes to this, I will be placing the schematics that I saved earlier this week. I will not be saving new ones based upon this world. (with a few exceptions)  It just takes too damn long to find and save the bounding fields, and we have only been active in the current world for a few days. I have already noted which structures that I will be saving from this world.

If you had done a bit of mining and resource gathering (that you can't handle losing), then I suggest keeping it in your inventory. If you have too much (and we're talking valuables here, not something like feathers or saplings), then we'll work out a "supply drop" schematic for you. Those are quick and easy, and don't require me to pull an all-nighter to prepare. :V

Remember that if you update your client before the server gets updated, then you won't be able to join. Since 1.8 and 1.9 will be making significant changes to the gameplay, Stuffman and I will need to work some things out before we consider everything stable again. We'll likely have some down times due to the transition and update, so please understand.

Again, this is all speculation. We'll have to see what Notch ruins changes once 1.8 is live.

I'm currently trying the 1.8 pre-release, and I think it looks great so far, but it seems to be a bit more hardware-demanding.
The new lighting looks really good and is a lot smoother than before. The colors are nice, but maybe exagerated a little (night is "too blue", and makes the transition to torch light a bit strange).

I haven't played enough of the 1.8 leak to see its effect on 1.7 worlds, so for now I suggest massive spreading out to maximize the 1.7 chunks on this world. Just go far by day, make temporary campsites by night. Or the other way around. Or whatever else. ^^

Progress!  UFO Trio completed. Evil Eye Sigma imported (again). Once I design the bridge leading to my Office,  I'll finally be ready to move on to a new project (instead of replacing structures that have been lost).

I've also modified the Sheep Spawner. I replaced the button with a lever so you don't have to constantly press the button to get your sheep. It really helps expedite the wool gathering process, as long as you don't get overcrowded.  :V  Just remember to "shut down" the spawner whenever you are done.

Midgar spawn area? That's an idea. If that were the case, Stuffman's Shinra HQ would need to be lifted up to the upper level. Also, the EP tower would be the Sector 7 support pillar. All we need to do is build a Seventh Heaven near its base. :getdown:

But if we were to build a Midgar replica, we'd have to move it away from spawn. Stupid spawn protections would prevent anyone from building anything nearby. Also, we could clear out the underground area to maximize building space. The "plate" would be at sea-level.

That's an option too, once we set up Multiverse and get through all of this 1.8 transition nonsense. We can probably have a "blank" world as our construction yard and then import it into the proper world once it is complete. Alternatively, we can just World Edit the terrain away and build within the current world. However, this project will be MASSIVE, and there is always the chance of our construction zone being invaded by people not dedicated to the project.

Not too much. I'm quite surprised at this idea gettting support, personally. What started as a joke (and a reference to the floating arenas/grinder on the PTM map) ended up as a serious option? Ehe.

Standard Demoman (with stickybombs) or Demoknight (with shields + swords/axe typically)?

I can't say Demopan, since you don't seem to have played long enough for some of the (promo) items needed for that.

...whatever, now I know why you like gunpowder now.

We used to have a TNT death message saying '<player> isn't a good Demoman', actually, back on the PTM'd map.

Doesn't affect me too much (though I was the test subject for said message), since I generally do leagues better with Demoknight-style play.

hmmmmmmmmm.......I have a thought, aside from the office, which will always be cool. (I REALLY should make myself just one house instead of having 20)
Should we have our own  texture pack so that everyone sees everything the same way if they choose to download it? Thay way theirs no mixups, like in one persons texture pack clay is brown while in the origonal it is obviously gray. Also wed be able to have paintings have our own selected look, like touhou chatacters instead of creeper faces.

Nah. Everyone should be able to customize their own look for Minecraft. Some people might be playing the game with custom packs that have a higher resolution. Some people choose to remain with default "because that's the way that the game was originally designed". No need to force them into playing with a uniform texture pack.

(I REALLY should make myself just one house instead of having 20)
Build what you want to build. That's what the game is all about. I, myself, prefer to have one or two bases in the world, specifically as a place to store my crap. After that, I look toward building things that are more artistic. Also, there are projects that serve a functional purpose, like the Sheep Dispenser or Mob Grinders.

Try to think outside the same old "homes and bases" routine. The game really opens up at that point.

Well, this is odd. Yes, the server did crash, but I cannot log into the network to restart MCMA. I get the following PuTTY error: "Server unexpectedly closed network connection."

Maybe the computer itself crashed or is being rebooted? I'll try again after a little while to see if it corrects itself. I'll let you know what I find out.

EDIT- Server's back up. I guess it restarted or had a power surge. It booted Minecraft before I could give it the command to do so.

Not sure when we'll be doing the update for the server... I'll leave that to Stuffman's jurisdiction.

Now that it's officially launched, I guess I'll make another backup.

EDIT- I decided to check out 1.8 myself.. We're definitely going to need to generate a new map for all of the goodies. Hopefully, Notch will release a patch that will generate other biomes (especially snow) relatively quickly. I don't really want to wait until 1.9..... but we'll see.

I believe that's our current plan. However, I'm skeptical about the new chunks generated in the current world once we update. I know that people have been expanding the borderlands to help combat this issue, but the world file just keeps on growing. Not to mention, they've been leaving gaps in their exploration..

I'm not fully against doing another massive schematic import. However, I'd like to wait until all of the updates that call for a world restart take place. I'm not sure if we'll be able to run and/or keep multiple worlds. Ideally, I'd like us to all be on one map. But while 1.8-1.9 and all their quirks stabilize, we'll maintain dual worlds... if possible. After that, I'd see about another import session.

-Find your Minecraft installation folder (c:/Users/<your name>/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft)
-Inside, you'll find a folder marked "bin". Open that.
-Now, find "minecraft.jar" and either delete it or move it to a different folder. (this is your 1.8 .jar, so you might want to save it. Up to you)
-Replace it with the 1.7.3 .jar that I've provided here.

I hope this works, as I've never done this before. Let me know how this turns out.

Good point with the exploration bit.

I'd update to 1.8 as soon as the EXP orb mega-lag bug (which allows anyone to pull the 2000 sapling crap very easily) gets fixed and Optifine gets updated, probably 1.8.1.

Dual worlds is a bit annoying (looks at Sphere before it turned to griefer's prison) but fun, so that idea is good. This time, however, I'd recommend that players keep their assets on 1.7.3 world and use 1.8 one primarily for exploration, mining, and blowing up NPC villages for failing lighting. This would also reduce the occurrence of 1.7.3 and 1.8 chunk conflicts on the main world through exploration encouragement elsewhere (somewhat like Sphere again, minus the version clash).

I'd actually rather wait for 1.9 (the 'full' Adventure update) for considering the idea of a mass world replacement, given some of 1.8's world generation quirks (no snow biomes, limited strongholds). Then I think we can delete old 1.8 world and old Nether, insert new patched 1.9 versions, and then go back to importing issues so that the 1.7.3 world, which would probably be quite stagnant at this point, can be retired.

EDIT:

Hey Loverbutts!!

So I think spawn needs a name, especially when we put in the metro (rail tracks).I really wouldn't call it like a city name since it is a neutral area.

My proposal would call spawn "The Center".

 I know it is a bit conventional because major cities always have "the center" and then the surrounding regions but I just lurv the name!!

We just might have to update the server to 1.8 anyway just so we can access it. D: Odd, since I had no trouble this morning.

Hopefully, the issue will resolve itself.
Sure. Like that's ever happened before.

I'm hearing conflicting reports on snow fields. Some say that they do generate, while others say they do not. If someone can confirm that snowfields DO generate in 1.8, then I'll suggest we go ahead and update so we can play on the server again.

You have to understand that this is more than just updating the server itself. We have to make sure our plugins and stuff works too.

Soo should I update to 1.8? Or will I not get access to the our world?
I suggest making a backup of your Minecraft installation folder. (location found in my earlier post) You can update to 1.8 if you want to, or if you just want to play the game. I still can't confirm when we'll update everything for the server.. but since we can't even connect as 1.7.3, who knows what will happen next.

Unfortunately, we're kinda stuck at this point. I apologize.

Doesn't matter at the current moment. It's impossible to connect either way at the moment. (though it was fine earlier)

If you update to 1.8, you won't be able to get in the server at all when and if it decides to work.

Testing again.

Taiga biomes are there but don't generate snow at all, even with rain effects. Attempts to use a 1.7.3 world and use 1.8 weather effects to generate snow also failed, meaning it's the return of...what was it, pre-1.5 biomes where snow does not re-generate at all?
Unless you planned on building snowmen, however, I see no problems yet.

It seems that it was Minecraft.net after all. Perhaps they're overburdened with the update and all.

Alright. We can resume business as usual until whenever we decide to update to 1.8. Enjoy.

As I mentioned before, I am reluctant to update to 1.8 until we see the next few bugfix patches.

However, I forgot to consider that this means you guys need to maintain two seperate versions of Minecraft, which is a pain in the ass.

Also the fact that 1.7.3 maps apparently won't play nice with 1.8 is troubling. Me and Strafe will decide what to do sometime this week.

Quote from: Minecraft 1.8 change log
Snow in Taiga and Tundra biomes does not generate for technical reasons. They will return in Beta 1.9
Dammit. Dammit. Dammit.
Hopefully, snow will accumulate on the ground of 1.8 Taiga biomes once 1.9 is in place. We really don't want to do another map restart, or wait to update until then.

I'm thinking, leave the 1.7.3 server up the way it is for now, till the 1.9 update (which hopefully won't be an eternity) so that we can play a bug-free (to the extent of 1.7.3 that is) and stable version, till everything else gets sorted out on Notch's end. I have an original backup of 1.7.3 (without any patches, aka: no optifine), and I can put up a download of it for us to use so we can connect to the server. (I can link to optifine as well, and host it if it goes poof for whatever reason) I know this can be somewhat of a pain for people that want 1.8 for their single player, but it will ensure that we won't have any of the strange issues like no snow on the server from 1.8.

What do you all think? (if this happens, maybe just linking the download in a PM to everyone would be better?)

Supported, since I already mentioned a similar idea in an earlier post:

I'd actually rather wait for 1.9 (the 'full' Adventure update) for considering the idea of a mass world replacement, given some of 1.8's world generation quirks (no snow biomes, limited strongholds). Then I think we can delete old 1.8 world and old Nether, insert new patched 1.9 versions, and then go back to importing issues so that the 1.7.3 world, which would probably be quite stagnant at this point, can be retired.

On the topic of Optifine, I actually recommend Optifine for everyone - while the effects are clear for low-end systems, for those of us with higher-end ones it adds some neat functions (mipmapping, 3x render distances if your GPU can handle it, HD textures support built right in). I use those advanced settings on my high-end desktop.
However, there are different versions of it (standard, smooth, Multi-thread, and even one that adds AA and AF), so... (I use multi-threaded due to my CPUs being quad and octo-thread).

i would love this beause i already updated and i can't find a 1.7.3 file. so please do
I can PM you mine - I have both vanilla and Optifine + Zombe's Mod versions.

Eh, he got it. Working fine for him. I realized I needed to replace more than one file for it to be "correct". I put in "version" so it would actually know it was 1.7.3, even though it said so and behaved fine. :V (notchism at work) Also, I stuck in whatever "md5s" was, because it changed creation dates, when everything else seems fine the way they are after the update. (I don't even know what that is)

So, I still could do this thing. As ep suggested, I can always put together MC + any optifine patches, since those are modded in via opening the jar file. I think everyone else should be able to handle other mods. ;)

MD5s are MD5 checksums/hashes. They are used commonly to verify file integrity.

I don't know if the plan is still to wait until 1.9 is released to switch the server to this version, but Notch said something about the Adventure update:
Quote from: Notch
We released Minecraft Beta 1.8! It?s the first half of the Adventure Update, with the remainder coming eventually!

EDIT: Also, here's 1.7.3 + Optifine_HD_G (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?guzls3ze6vnt1d9), aka the standard Optifine patch, if anyone wants it. Just replace the files from the downloaded rar to their bin folder in .minecraft, and you're good to go. (note: it may take a few seconds longer to load up the first time after replacement)
You should instead link the Optifine page on Minecraft Forums (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/249637-173-optifine-hd-g-fps-boost/). For some of us the Smooth or Multi-thread versions work better, and those of us with high-end systems can use the AA/AF experimental version. :V

Also this is important - DELETE the META-INF folder from your minecraft.jar if you install any mods, including Optifine! Can't believe you forgot about that one BSoD.

Yep. It seems that the MotK Minecraft experience isn't complete without some server crashing. I feel like Tewi is trolling us remotely somewhere..

I rebooted it a little while ago, because I couldn't get a response from it. Oddly enough, it was running fine at the time. Anyway, I've noticed a bunch of [SEVERE] errors that are continuing to appear in the server log. Most of these originate from  java.net  and sun.net... Yep. Now Java wants in on the server crashing action.  Well, perhaps not server crashing, more like "disconnect players for he hell of it and don't let them back in at times."

Just one more suspect in our colorful lineup of the "Server Crash Crew":  MCMA, Minecraft.net, power outages, Strafe's idiocy,  and now Java. Fun fun fun.

It, is gone. I'm looking at it right now, it's not there. That's very strange. I'll fix the other post once I figure out what's going on. (and link in the Optifine page, which I forgot to do apparently :V)

EDIT: No, it IS gone. I just downloaded what I put up, and it isn't there at all. I don't know what you're seeing then.


DOWNLOADS :]
Just replace the files from the downloaded rar to their bin folder in .minecraft, and you're good to go. (note: it may take a few seconds longer to load up the first time after replacement)

Here is an original version of 1.7.3 (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?j8esf70uar6rjj0) if you want that for whatever reason. (note, it has the META-INF folder still inside. Use WinRAR if you want to mod this thing and REMOVE the META-INF folder only if you're modding or just ask me and I'll be happy to assist)

OptiFine 1.7.3_HD_G (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?k61mkdi3pyhksud)
Classic, includes support for HD textures, HD fonts and BetterGrass, MCPatcher not needed
this mod adds a lot of options for better looks and performance. Doubling the FPS is common.
Moves fog away, adds mipmaps, chunk loading control (mod CAF), Smooth FPS, brightness control, VSync and many other.


OptiFine 1.7.3_HD_S_G (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?j47a2ccmmpmoegy)
Smooth, removes lag spikes
FPS much smoother, no more stuttering and freezes. No lag spikes on sunrise/sunset.
The smooth version is cutting edge.
If it works the results are great, if not try the classic one it should always work.


OptiFine 1.7.3_HD_MT_G2 (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?owp1urrh590yx0l)
MultiThreaded, uses second core on dualcore CPU-s
On single core CPU: FPS much smoother, no more stuttering and freezes. No lag spikes on sunrise/sunset.
On dual core CPU: even better, chunk loading affects only minimally the FPS.
The multithreaded version is cutting edge.
If it works the results are great, if not try the classic one it should always work.


Experimental OptiFine_1.7.3_HD_AA_G5 (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?s0o9g779p103nra)
Experimental
Adds Antialiasing (AA) and Anisotropic Filtering (AF) to mipmaps.

I know it's there. :3 But in the ones I have uploaded, it's gone. (except for the "original" one, which I left a note with) I'm just confused why you stated I forgot about it when I didn't. :|

I'm gonna see about putting other minecraft.jar files together with the different patches from Optifine here, now that I have free time to do so. (see tech thread)

EDIT: Updated earlier post with downloads to all 4 OptiFine patches.
The MultiThreaded is unknown to work for the one reason that my computer can't run it. Someone needs to test it for me that was able to in the past to make sure it works and isn't messed up.

Maybe not. The livefeed still works. Maybe what happened is what Strafe said earlier. :|

Blame your CPU. The MT version is designed for those of us with dual-core or better CPUs, usually from the Core (Intel) / K9 (AMD) architectures and later. Pent D is really just two Pent 4 (single-core - they are part of Netburst arch) CPU dies stuck together, and don't work very well in multi-thread operations.

Server's down for a bit. Strafe (with a bit of my suggestion on the Linux end) is considering upgrading Mono (what MCMA, a .NET application, uses for our Linux-based server) to try and solve a few problems. Current stable version is 2.10.5 - we are on 2.10.2.

However, how that will work, whether it is possible, as well as which Linux binary to get (since there are several different archive files for varying distros, and Provision Host doesn't clearly state which one they use for visitors), are not as certain.
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server (NEW WORLD)
Post by: Dr.Strafe on September 16, 2011, 06:10:01 AM
I haven't had much luck with upgrading Mono. I'm not exactly sure which version of Linux we're using, therefore I have no idea of which Mono package to download. Perhaps we should put in a ticket to see if Provision Host can update it for us. I don't really want to screw anything up.

Server is back up again...

Yeah, I have no idea what's going on there. Shutting down/restarting through MCMA control panel doesn't stop it from saving 4 times each time. I've made another world backup just in case something gets corrupted before we can fix it. :ohdear:

I have put in a rather lengthy support Ticket with Provision Host, detailing all of our issues and speculations about the crashes. I'm hoping that they can help us update Mono and/or stabilize MCMA once and for all (or even replace it, if need be). I also brought up the bizarre quadruple saving events, as well as some issues I'm receiving from the control panel itself.

This might lead to some server downtime while they work with us. Hopefully, it won't be long.

*sigh* Well, that was a waste of time. I updated the ticket to let them know about the saving issue fixing itself (through another crash, mind you). Their response:
Quote from: Provision Host
That's great news! Let us know if you need any further assistance.

If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to ask.
Yep, completely missed the point. Would you kindly read the other 2/3 of my ticket now?  The crashes are still occurring. >:( *Ticket closed due to me being dumbfounded by their response*

I've never received any feedback from them about Mono any of the times I've asked... so maybe I've been on the wrong track all along. PH seems to insist that the problem stems from our server setup and plugins. So, in short, I guess we're stuck running things the way they have been going... I'm not thrilled about it, but what can we do?

I'll monitor the server when I can and bring things back up whenever I catch the downtime.

EDIT- Speak of the devil.. another crash! Looks like this one is spamming the "unknown command" lines to the server log again. It should stop after several minutes, once it hits its memory limit. I should be able to restart it at that time.

Also, I'm really liking the projects that people have going on currently. I'm glad that people are enjoying their time on the server (despite its flaws) and building really cool stuff!

Dammit. I've been trying for the last hour, and the server refuses to go back up. Frankly, I'm tired of messing with it for now. I'm going to bed.

Sorry, but the server will remain down until further notice. Sorry about the wait.

EDIT - I've submitted a restart Ticket. Hopefully the host will have better luck than I did.

I got it going again. Strafe, if it's refusing to restart, exit out of all screens and enter "reboot" which reboots linux itself. Then login a few minutes later and you should be able to start it.

Server is still shut down right now though. Please wait warmly while I figure out how to boot the server without MCMA.

Alright folks, it's open. Give it a try.

'Cause I was AFK farming at my mob grinder right...

And he just hung around there, one block away from me, over a one-block high wall. Without blowing up. I thanked him for his patience when I returned and after all that warm waitin', he got some well-deserved whoop-ass.

Cool story, I know, but it's TRVE.

There shouldn't be any visible changes on your end, except that automatic save warnings and reboots are gone. If we can go a few days without another crash, yeah, that'll pretty much have settled it.

I'd give it a 5-day crash-free period to conclude the issue. If not, then there's something else at play.

I hope we do a switch to 1.8 D:
So do I, but only after:
(1) Mods that require MCP (namely Optifine, which many of us use) get 1.8.x versions.
(2) The SERVER CRASH bugs (especially the EXP orb one, which seems worse than I thought) are fixed. (http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Bugs#SERVER_CRASH) Alternatively, if EXP orbs are disabled outright with mods.
(3) Stuffman gives the all-clear to update.
(4) We agree on yet another schematic frenzy using existing structures on all three of the worlds we have ATM. No use in trying to copy over the existing world due to the vast differences. (What does this also mean? Get mining all over the place, hoard the snow - and pack them into blocks, not snowballs! - and later on, de-torch the surroundings).
(5?) We get a modification that gives food classical behaviour (instant health healing, no hunger factor) minus the ability to stack (that is damn useful). Then again, that would make 1.8.x+ MC too easy. :V

As of now, we're still undecided. It's been a week, but 1.8.1 still has some issues that I'm concerned about. The XP Orb lag issue (which EP claims is now fixed?) is a major concern, since we do have a bunch of lemmings running about. :V I'm also hesitant about the biomes being incomplete. If we make a new map for 1.8, and then have to make a new map for 1.9, then Doc is seriously going to have to choke a bitch. Blame Notch & Friends for wanting to make so many drastic changes to the game. (which are completely awesome, but TWO major updates is a bit of a pain.) We'll let everyone know when we're ready to update. Believe me, I'm just as anxious as all of you.

On another note i would make sprites also but just thinking about the amount of wool and dye needed is a turn off for me:/
/me politely guides Dr.Rawr over to the Evil Eye Sigma, as well as his other creations in SMP.
These are all legitimate, my boy. The Sigma took 30-35 stacks of wool, and a ton of revisions to get it to look right. It was also built before the Wool Center was even conceived, so every single sheep had to be hunted down individually. If it wasn't for the SheepFeed mod, things would have been even more difficult.

I built the Wool Center specifically to remove the tedium of hunting the sheep down yourself.  I hated spending 20 minutes searching, only to find one or two. My original Blue UFO (DDR's server) took FOREVER to find all of the necessary sheep. By using the Wool Center, all you need to focus on is the dye and the shears.

As far as making more sprites are concerned, I say go for it. I just might make one myself. We don't want Ikubi Akius to get lonely up there.

Since many people have been building there (including myself), I will save the entire city as one large schematic. I will be saving everything from the ground up, omitting anything underground. I'm not even sure if people have anything underground there, other than mineshafts. The city has a fairly large footprint, and I don't want to have to worry about depth as well.

Hit me up sometime on the server and I can get you some cocoa. Fortunately, brown wool can regenerate with the SheepFeed mod, so you don't have to reapply the dye every time. Just bring a good amount of wheat or bread with you so you can feed the sheep as you go. Brown wool is probably the hardest to obtain legally, which leads many people to use dirt instead.

I guess I need to clarify things a bit on that scenario (like it really matters :V)
There are a number of dirt pillars scattered around Hakurei City. I guess they're part of some measurement system that Sparda has going on. I have no idea what they're really for. Anyway, a zombie went and spawned up there and I beckoned it to come down. He didn't want to, so I slowly reduced the pillar until it chased after me.

After disposing of the zombie, I restored the pillar and spawned a creeper on top for the hell of it. "What's the matter, little fella? Are you stuck? WELL, TOUGH SHIT." :V  It wasn't looking at me, so I thought it wasn't locked on me. I build another pillar to try to get closer to him, but he blew up in my face, thus causing me to fall to my death. :getdown:

Definitely one of those "you had to be there" moments, as retelling the story through text doesn't do it justice.

I guess I need to clarify things a bit on that scenario (like it really matters :V)
There are a number of dirt pillars scattered around Hakurei City. I guess they're part of some measurement system that Sparda has going on. I have no idea what they're really for. Anyway, a zombie went and spawned up there and I beckoned it to come down. He didn't want to, so I slowly reduced the pillar until it chased after me.

After disposing of the zombie, I restored the pillar and spawned a creeper on top for the hell of it. "What's the matter, little fella? Are you stuck? WELL, TOUGH SHIT." :V  It wasn't looking at me, so I thought it wasn't locked on me. I build another pillar to try to get closer to him, but he blew up in my face, thus causing me to fall to my death. :getdown:

Definitely one of those "you had to be there" moments, as retelling the story through text doesn't do it justice.
Ah, that's right. :derp: It was a little while since that happened. Guess that was the best I could remember.

NOTICE TO ALL HAKUREI CITY RESIDENTS AND PROSPECTIVE SETTLERS!
Sparda has notified me that he will NOT be supporting any NEW sprites made within the city walls or nearby the vicinity. He also implied support on moving Ikubi and doll Yuyuko to a new location at that time.

Chen is considering creating a sprite park to accommodate sprite works, and has offered to host those two sprites there. I suggest that BSoD and Sunny (the sprites' respective creators) decide where to place them, and contact Strafe on WE moving them.
Also see Sparda's additions (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,10734.msg719899.html#msg719899) to this reminder.

I don't think it's necessary to move Agent's Ikubi sprite, as it is not within the city limits. It is far enough away that the schematic will not copy it as well. I think its current location is fine until we move to the new map. I will move the Yuyuko sprite that is within city limits to a new location that Sunny prefers the next time we meet.

I believe that Sparda view jurisdiction of Hakurei City and the structures within its walls,  but not anything outside of them. (unless the immediate area outside becomes part of the City project.)  Just trying to be fair here.

A sprite park would be interesting, but consider this. As shown on DDR's server, many sprites in close proximity tend to eclipse each other. You could do like PX did with his Madoka sprites and form them all in a line, but that would end up taking a lot more space than intended.

I'm perfectly fine with placing sprites wherever you wish, just make sure everyone nearby is okay with the project first. They might have plans for that land, you know?

He was a bit vague with 'vicinity', which I assume to mean anything within 128m (Normal draw distance) of an area, which Ikubi is in.

Understood. However, I think that Ikubi is fine at its current position until the server update. I'll relocate it if Sparda plans on expanding Hakurei City before then.

i forgot to say something to ep ( was busy to translate some english words with dict.cc )
the suika sprite is something that i want to see when i am standing on the wall    the yuyuko sprite can also be in the village when sunny want that
i only want that there are not to many sprites in the city so i dont support more sprites in the city
for the vicinity i only want that new sprites are not to near to the wall   the suika distance is fine
i only thought when there will be build a sprite park the should think about to move it there when they want
i am also fine when the sprites stand where they are at the moment
i am only against new sprites inside the wall

Here, have a screenshot:
[attach=1]
So, here's the story behind this:
I had barely finished wiring the entrance of my Cube, and I guess the creeper spawned from behind the wiring (this area had been darkened by the blocks used for wiring).
Well, I guess repairing it wouldn't be too complicated, but I hope I can prevent any more from spawning...

Edit: Just had a thought that I was unlucky in 2 ways: first, a mob spawned inside the Cube because of the wiring I laid around, and second, it was a creeper... oh well, the Cube is repaired and should be safe now.

Hm... Not sure, really.
Since we're the Official MotK server, Stuffman has adopted a rule that only users in good standing on MotK can play on the server. If someone was to get probated, then they would not be able to play while their Probation period is still active. If they were to get banned, then they are removed from the list entirely. Since one would have to be an active member just to be added to the whitelist, then it would make sense that we would remove members that are no longer a part of the community.

In Eraiya's case, I have noticed that he/she hasn't been active on the server since the end of the BroHoster nonsense. This troubled me because he/she was one of the major proponents for us switching to the PTM world. It's a shame that he/she has left this community, but I'm sure they have their reasons.

At this time, I don't see any reason to modify the whitelist in order to weed out the names of people that have left us. I'll defer this issue to Stuffman, since he most likely knows the members of MotK better than I. I'm pretty sure he'd agree to remove such names from the list, going by the same logic I've described above. We try to keep our Minecraft community open to people that are loyal participants of the MotK community. We haven't had any players that have fallen out of "good standing" with MotK, nor any (serious) reason to remove anyone from the list itself.

Well, this was a very odd day on server.

Strafe, Jimmy, BSoD, Shady, Sunny, and I opted to all hang in my fort for reasons unknown, mostly doing mob fights and random PVP and light nonsense (glass box + lava + stuck player = :V).
Later, in an expansion of such I've retooled one of my tower's floors to a little pool of sorts, and continued such madness. It ended up being more popular than imagined...perhaps the next PVP arena will be water-based?
And, lastly, just to top it off, Strafeageddon Pt. 1.5 - the Sinibomb was put into play about 1.5km away from Sparda's city (nothing of value was destroyed). Results were impressive but the server was Strafed. XD Such was followed with more mob rushes (now he can spawn mobs at a player's location - watch your back and location!) and basic mining amid the crater alongside some (mostly) unfitting music (try creeper hunting with Alice -> Dere in the background :V).

Fort took a good bit of damage from explosions in the process. Once by my setting off TNT to kill a pack of creepers (all for the gunpowder XD), twice by creepers blowing up too close to the edge glass, and once more by a 150-creeper batallion Strafe spawned at Shady's location at that time (that was a real mess). It was all fixed at the end of the day though, and net gains were good - plenty of slimeballs, gunpowder, and especially feathers (spawned chickens underwater just stay there).

Yep. Today was fun. EP's tower got some unintended renovations; lots of PVP happened; and I learned something very interesting about /spawnmob. >:D

Not to worry, though. I don't plan on ambushing players with mobs. Hell, I don't even use /spawnmob during "normal" gameplay. Only during PVP or "arena style" events, where the only thing we have to do is goof off. In these situations, one must keep in mind the first rule to "arena style" gameplay: Do not bring anything that you are not willing to lose. 

I respect the hard work that people put in for their buildings, resources, and valubles, and don't wish that they lose anything by my hand. I am more than willing to help repair things when our fun goes awry. (I had no idea Shady was making a supply drop at the time he received his 150 creeper infusion. Thankfully, nothing of value was lost. Still doesn't mean that the situation wasn't funny as hell, though.)

It's nights like tonight that I really enjoy playing this game with others. So much fun.

Strafe has mentioned that he has had a bit of difficulty with adding people to the whitelist recently due to a replacement of a critical plugin (Essentials) with a not-so-versatile alternative. Stuffman has tried to reinstate it but faced Permissions errors, and with his trip it may be some time until it is fixed.
The other option is to manually add people in, but that requires taking down the server for a brief period of time, editing a file, and then restarting it. Moreover we don't have MCMA installed thanks to problems it has caused us in the past, so the procedure is a bit harder.

I'll look into it for you. Just PM me your username and I'll add you to the list.

Without Essentials, I do have to take a roundabout method to adding people to the list. For some reason, the "/whitelist add" command responds with "I'm sorry, Dave. I cannot let you do that." I wish I was joking.  Anyway, I can modify the list manually and tell the server to reload it. I have yet to see if this method actually works, because the person I added earlier has yet to actually join the server. :V

All else fails, I can just restart the server after modifying the whitelist. One way or another, we'll get you in there.

Though I have to say, I'm pretty damn impressed after the tour. Seems that you guys put a ton of work into this server and all.

Considering that this started as a temporary map for waiting until 1.8 arrived, it's quite impressive.

No, they are in 16x16x128 bits (32768 blocks per chunk). It is just that sometimes world geometry doesn't render for a bit.

Here, just stare at this during that part of the video:

That's what I got to stare at until the game kicked me for running out of memory. I'm just glad I didn't kill the server

It's a shame that we didn't record the first massive spawning spree. Watching all of those creepers run around was really fun.

By the time I noticed this comment, you had already come back into the server. Good to see you again.

Anyway, I have been looking for you since we left the Brohoster server to see if you had wanted either of your previous structures (your castle, and the SDM under construction) imported into this world. Since we are going to be creating another new world once 1.9 hits, I can hold off on importing it now if you wish. The choice is up to you.

Also, if anyone can find out more about these "two major updates" that Notch has planned after 1.9, I'd greatly appreciate it. I am concerned that those updates would require a new world to be put in place.. I know that he mentioned that they're going to do a "code freeze" on October 18, to focus on the Convention. If they are a major game changer as Notch is implying, then we might hold off on the update until after things stabilize from those two updates. If the updates do not require a new world, then we'll proceed as scheduled. I know. I know. I'm tired of waiting too. I'm really eager to go adventuring!

No idea of these 1.10+ update ideas, but I guess modding support, Sky dimension, and fish are included.

A code freeze in development is where part or all of a program will have no further changes in code. I'd take that as the latest time to update, since I doubt anything affecting the basics of the game will be affected.

It was one thing to hold out on 1.8, but I feel we are far enough behind (compared to the 1.9 final pre-release) that an upgrade is almost warranted even with another interim shift.

Oh yes, yes they will. It happened to my old seeds after I had updated, anyway.

It really is sad that I cannot find the trapped gravel beach in the 404 seed anymore, if you know what I mean (the 404 challenges, etc). And the super cool floating mountains seed I once posted here? Nowhere as epic as it used to be.

You know what, might as well wait with updating the server until the supposed release date, 11.11. It's not that far away and apparently there is still plenty of new stuff in the making.

I am aware of the 1.7->1.8 discrepancies, having tested them myself. That is one thing, but our major concern is for post-1.9 biome generation updating.

I'd wait at latest for 18 Oct or so due to the stated code freeze, which will indicate (likely) no further changes to part or all of the code.

Thanks for the offer, but I'll wait until the next server update to transfer my structures. For now, I'm started another project which will mostly be made of dirt because I'm planning to use the stone blocks added in 1.8 Also, I wonder if we can make villagers from 1.9 spawn in our structures, that'll probably make our town a bit more livelier.

You'll have to ask Sparda about that one. I'd move quickly, too, since existing residents are propping up even more structures (they even have a strip mall).

I did state I was going to build there, but I'm probably not going to at all with this recent change.

HECK YEAH! Those villagers don't belong with their STUPID FACES.  I hope those villagers are prepared to fly sky high.  :V
Oh, they'll see the blue skies after we plunder the villages for what they're worth. Chances are, though, I'll just mine out every block in the village for further resources.
Other uses include:
 - TNT cannon testing grounds
 - Mob grinder
 - Mob shotgun testing grounds
 - Miniature Midgar
 - Special Administrative Region (SAR) with very tight controls on what goes in and out (similar to Hong Kong in the PRC)
 - Garbage disposal
 - Historical exhibit (cover in glass, Jimmy-style)
 - Part of a giant parkour course (yes one is planned for the new server)
 - A place for 150+ creepers to be spawned
 - etc.

I have a stupid great idea for a gate, when we move the city when paching to 1.9 I heard that it's going to be moved closer to the spawn after transfer, so we don't need a railway as main entrance :V
I for that I need 40 Sticky Pistons, a few stacks redstone and some german engineering xD
Going to test it in singleplayer first I hope it will work as I planned.


btw Strafe, is it possible that I can start building my mansion for the underground on the surface and you move it into the underground later on? Since I'm not going to work on the underworld till we move with 1.9 I have some time for that. (Well I'm close to be done with the walls and water, when we move to 1.9 I can start cave the area's for the city of oni :V I'm pretty excited for that. This is going to be like Sparda's city, just underground ^^, but it shouldn't lose the flair of an old city, I hope so)

its okay for me when you build a second home but there are some places were you should not build like the front area  (where the two gatehouses are and the castle) it is still reserved for ep ( i hope you will build something ep)
 and the place that is marked with the line of torches ( its doras place) and for those people that have nothing build until yet in the city you can also build houses in hakurei city
and when the city run out off building space i can make a second ring around it.

We will update to 1.9 as soon as it's released. As discussed, when we do, we'll install Multiverse to generate a new world (and wipe the nether as well).

The current world will remain as the main map. The map is big enough that any new chunks resulting in hard edges should be far away enough to not bother us much. Whatever else breaks, breaks. Be prepared for your mob grinders to be dissected by Endermen and have Creepers bursting out the seams. :V

You'll be able to warp to the spawn point of the new world with /warp, no portals necessary.

I am not too concerned about further updates after 1.9. I really just wanted to sit on 1.8 for a while so bugs would get sorted out; the real big change is the different terrain generation code; once it's put in, we won't have to worry about further updates creating more breaks in the unexplored map (probably).

It's also not quite as necessary to wait for bugfix iterations since Notch is doing the prerelease things to look for bugs beforehand now.

tl;dr - go ahead and keep playing, you won't lose a single thing in the transition.
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server (NEW WORLD)
Post by: DX7.EP on October 03, 2011, 10:17:04 PM
( i hope you will build something ep)
Well, had to put this in red, eh? Well, I still am thinking of the option, likely a brick place since I never really used brick for structures beforehand. But the growth of the Sunny Strip Mall and the Sunny Day Times Archives is making things a bit uneasy about the prospects of construction.

We will update to 1.9 as soon as it's released. As discussed, when we do, we'll install Multiverse to generate a new world (and wipe the nether as well).
One request - I'd also add Sphere world, the one thing from DDR's server that didn't make sense and yet was kickass. We can reboot that to PX's Anarchy World, as I have suggested several times, and the only place where 'the law' applies is in the primary sphere.
Major reasoning? Vanilla worlds were regarded as boring at one point, but having our main world as heavily PTM-modified backfired, so having an alternate-terrain world on the side seems good. Moreover Sphere is quite common on other servers that use Multiverse. Lastly it was hard to define the boundaries of PX's original Anarchy Land on BroHoster map.

OK, no problems. But I'd also request a fresh 1.9 world as well for exploration and whatnot purposes, but on the other hand I think it's already a bit to request Sphere world, so if only one of the two is implemented I'd ask for the former to take priority.

And should that happen to PX's grinder - wait, Endermen don't take out nearly as many blocks in 1.9 (http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Enderman#Moving_blocks) so we're a bit safer. However they do teleport more often.

I agree. It sucks that we've been waiting for almost a month now. The only reason we're waiting until 1.9 is because Notch didn't complete the biome coding properly in 1.8. Even when 1.9 hits, we're going to have to wait another week or so, so the kinks can get worked out and our plugins work properly. This will probably make us wait until October 18 anyway, but I'm hoping it can happen sooner. Also, we're DEFINITELY NOT waiting until MineCon to update the server. Oct 18 is bad enough. :V

Question about the village/city, is it okay to build myself a "second home" there? Just curious if there's any sort of restriction.
Sure! Sparda mentioned that there still aren't enough residents in Hakurei City. I've built a second home there myself. There should be plenty of space around my home if you feel like building one yourself.

Since I'm not going to work on the underworld till we move with 1.9 I have some time for that. (Well I'm close to be done with the walls and water, when we move to 1.9 I can start cave the area's for the city of oni :V I'm pretty excited for that. This is going to be like Sparda's city, just underground ^^, but it shouldn't lose the flair of an old city, I hope so)
I haven't made the schematic for your underground area yet, so feel free to go ahead and build it down there. I can save a schematic above-ground like you're asking, however the schematic bounding fields save "air" blocks as well. This could cause some issues when placing the mansion within the cavern, as the "air blocks" within the mansion schematic could overwrite any walls or structures already down there. It's really up to you.

I'll inform everyone whenever it's time to get ready for... the... schem--
The current world will remain as the main map.
Huh. Well, nevermind then!

We'll see how everything pans out once we update.

Yeah, that one will be encrusted in glass. Should the villagers give a quest to destroy the glass, well, they face TNT. :getdown:

EDIT: Since Stuffman clarified what we will be doing, I think I'll ask for both my arenas to be imported again, and I'll be starting that parkour course of doom (which bars flying, Zombe's sprinting, and warp compass).

EDIT2: To Sparda and Molten: You can take that front part and use it for your second home. I don't think I'll be making camp in Hakurei City, not even a mart. You know me and my disposition to towns....

And about the world saving over in the 1.9 update, I'm rather skeptical about it, as we saw what happened last time, which will most likely happen with 1.9. Sure, we have lots of chunks again, but if we expand too much, it's gonna be really weird. I understand that transferring each and every thing as a schematic is not a fun task.

Yeah, if you expand the current world after the update there will definitely be jarring breaks in the terrain. It'll look bad but I'm just so tired of losing our worlds that I'm not willing to do it again.

The idea here is for you guys to go explore and expand the new map while using the current one as a base of operations.

And yes I will look into a sphere world.

As a side note, I have concerns about the impact all this is going to have on the server's performance. 1.8+ is apparently much slower, in addition to the multiple worlds we'll be running.

Since we're the Official MotK server, Stuffman has adopted a rule that only users in good standing on MotK can play on the server. If someone was to get probated, then they would not be able to play while their Probation period is still active. If they were to get banned, then they are removed from the list entirely. Since one would have to be an active member just to be added to the whitelist, then it would make sense that we would remove members that are no longer a part of the community.
[...]
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server (NEW WORLD)
Post by: Stuffman on October 04, 2011, 11:06:03 PM
Oh I forgot to comment on Eraiya earlier

Basically the reason you need to be registered on MotK to be added to the whitelist is so that we know who everyone who joins the server is, and that they're accountable to the community.

If Eraiya decides to come back it's fine because we already know he's trustworthy. I'm just not interested in taking risks on new people. So any of you could stop posting on MotK and you'd still be allowed on the server, as long as you haven't done anything to alienate yourself from MotK.

Getting banned isn't quite the same thing as quitting; if someone has been banned from MotK we have reason to assume they're a liability, so off the whitelist they go.

alunral: I'm afraid you won't be allowed on the whitelist right away, you'll need to establish yourself here for an undefined period of time first.

[attach=1]
I still have to decide of the rules and whatnot, but basically you will have a limited amount of arrows and will have to shoot at me (once at a time!).
I'll try to come up with original ideas, and I'll let you all know when I'm done with the preparations, so we can decide of the time..

EDIT: Just remembered that the bow will be changed when we update the server, so I'll also have to think about whether to hold this contest before (if it's ready) or after we update.

Since I'm always trying to be up to date on the latest mc news check out this tweet from jeb:

At today's meeting @notch suggested that should keep doing prereleases all the way to Minecon, so my previous tweet about 1.9 is obsolete :)
Source: http://twitter.com/#!/jeb_ (http://twitter.com/#!/jeb_)
As you can see, 1.9 will not be released next week.  We will be getting a flurry of pre-releases instead, and 1.9 is probably going to be the final version.  So then, what is gonna be the plan from here on then?  Wait for the final release or update to a pre-release?
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server (NEW WORLD)
Post by: Dr.Strafe on October 10, 2011, 09:10:29 AM
Yeah, I'm not too thrilled with this turn of events. I can't say I'm surprised, though. So much for their code freeze on the 18th.

As Shady pointed out, we're faced with two options: To either wait until 1.9 hits (or even the full release) which might make us wait until mid-November, or to take our chances by updating to these pre-release versions. The longer we wait for them to get their shit together, the more I would like to side with the latter.

Also, with all of this talk about the Sky Dimension/The Ender that is upcoming, we might have to reconsider having many worlds via Multi-verse. If we keep the current world like we're planning, then we'll be running four worlds on our little machine. And that is without the oh-so-popular Sphere World. Needless to say, I'm worried about the load on the server, as well as its HDD space.

Updating for a 1.9 prerelease is not an option because we also need to wait for 1.9 Bukkit.
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server (NEW WORLD)
Post by: DX7.EP on October 10, 2011, 11:04:59 AM
The other option is to just accept the current 1.8.1 for a bit, being the latest stable version and all. Probably won't happen though, owing to user popularity of snow and the mega XP orb lag potential.

Figured as much. I was at least hoping that the mods would be compatible with pre-release versions.

Quote from: Minecraft 1.9 pre3 Bug list
[!] Old worlds existing from Beta 1.8.1 and below might have their biomes changed if updated to ANY of the 1.9 pre-releases. For example: A Forest Biome with a lot of trees and a surrounding body of water may might be converted to a Swamp Biome. This leads to ugly rendering and shading of the ground, and the tree's leaves.

[!] Shortly after returning to the Overworld from the Nether, whether by Portal or by death and respawn, if you attempt to approach the portal the game will crash. Seems to happen once you are close enough to hear the portal sound effects.

[!] When you shut down a server, it always loses data. save-all does nothing. Additionally some chunks will not save the changes. When you leave and then return the area will be back to it's original state.

[!] Sometimes when playing on server and the client disconnects, the server thinks that the player is still connected and does not allow the client to connect.
Yeah. I think I'll retract my earlier statement about updating to pre-releases.  :derp:

Going by the first item you quoted on the buglist, it seems folly to upgrade to 1.8.1, only to upgrade again to 1.9. However, it also seems that it will also adversely affect our existing world anyway (say goodbye to your snow land Cadmas? :ohdear:). Schematic imports may once again be a possibility....

It looks like schematic imports would be the best bet, again. Having big changes in biomes is sure to look very weird, especially when we'll also have dramatic changes (most likely) from our chunks to 1.9's chunks. :ohdear:
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server (NEW WORLD)
Post by: DX7.EP on October 10, 2011, 05:43:49 PM
OK, I'm favouring another round of schematics and doing one of the following:
(A) Immediately upgrading to a fresh 1.8.1 world (my recommendation)
Pros: That will sedate the increasing restiveness players have for a bit, which has gotten almost out of hand. Also, this version has been stable for a while now and mods are mostly there (even one that adjusts the server jar to disable XP orbs).
Cons: May have to move worlds again come 1.9, assuming the recent pre-release's bugs. May involve one or more 'fresh starts'.
Misc: I'd leave it up to the users to determine whether they want to continue working on their older structures, but ultimately it's you two's decision on even giving that option (I say don't). Also, we'd have to temporarily add snow blocks to the list of stuff that can be obtained from Ops upon request.

(B) Retain 1.7.3 until 1.9 + Bukkit arrive, and then make a fresh world (Strafe's implication)
Pros: Less overall work to do than the above; no issues with terrain generation or fresh starts
Cons: Instigates more restiveness, mostly in the form of waiting. Who knows when 1.9 will arrive?

(C) Retain 1.7.3 until 1.9 + Bukkit arrive, but keep worlds (Stuffman's suggestion)
Pros: What need for schematic work (in short-term future)?
Cons: Rest of the lot will be boring themselves to death until then, and the map file is already ridiculously large. We also may need to do schematic work regardless if 1.9 does have adverse effects on existing chunks, but by the time we notice it may be too late. Also, once again, unsure of the arrival time of 1.9.

(D) Regress to 1.7.2 (if one can find both server and client jar files) for a bit
Pros: We can crash the diamond supply again :getdown:
Cons: Pretty much everything else

(all options also assume the re-adding of Essentials, but Multiverse is left to you two, though I am recommending that)

Also, I've noticed - the TF2 server is run on a general web server host (according to its Op omgkitties), but the MC one uses a dedicated MC one. Granted, I know there is tech support in that option, but it doesn't seem like it has been too reliable.... Assuming configuration and whatnot is not a problem (and tweaking is an option), I'd give some thought into that possibility in the long term if host rigidity and lame responses become massive issues (or worse, implodes AKA Brohoster). Major catch with that - we'll have to do all the configuration ourselves (plugins, server RAM, HDD, bandwidth, Mono, MCMA maybe, etc.).

The major reason against the orbs is due to the potential to lag the server greatly should someone die with lots of XP. In fact, have too much upon death and there goes the server in a glorious crash! (I've also heard reports of corrupting maps following suit, though these are rare)

Therefore I recommend installing an XP-orb disabling mod that goes into minecraft_server.jar.

I finally finished the Mega Hakkero (http://i52.tinypic.com/2eg731y.jpg), it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Somewhere, Marisa is plotting something to do with this.
You might want to consider reinforcing it. It doesn't seem structurally capable of containing much energy. Well... conventional one, at least. Lava would burn it. Which leads me to a thought...
With all that jazz about enchantments, potions and other tools to improve one's quality of virtual life in MC, it probably wouldn't hurt to introduce some kind of high-level magic-enhancing material. (Along with spells, obviously, especially destructive magic.) Because, you know, I'd really like to see that beauty powering up my laser up to eleven.

A water-like material (enchanted water? raw mana?) would be perfect.

...I really ought to pick up modding. That thing needs to be in the game.

To all of you that want us to update to 1.8.1 to curb boredom: If we do so, I will not import  any schematics into that new world. Frankly, we have grown quite a bit since the current map began, and I don't want to waste 1-2 days moving all of our stuff only to have to move it again come 1.9.

If you really want us to update soon, then keep this in mind. The only viable workaround is taking Stuffman's suggestion by using Multiverse to keep our current world, and have a fresh 1.8.1 world generated for us. Once the Adventure Update(s) are finally complete and we can update to them, the 1.8.1 world will likely be deleted. This is to make room for the 1.9.whatever world, whether or not we do waves of schematics.

I am still available and willing to do schematic work for everyone once we get the server updated and stable. I just don't want to spin my wheels and do something that won't matter in a couple of weeks. My suggestion in the meantime: Begin a new project and focus on that. You'll get your Adventure update eventually. Trust me. I'm fucking tired of waiting on Mojang as well.

That will work just fine, maybe even better than my original take on this idea. Sphere would be nice but it can wait until after 1.9.whatever. As long as I can use that TNT against villages I'm more content. :getdown:

As for what's going on with versions, I'm actually content to wait till 1.9. Though the current discussion about a temporary 1.8 is fine too.

I am not much of a builder so I don't mind my stuff being perpetually demolished. Although I grew kind of fond of our current map. I love things like what I call the Youkai Mountain (at the end of our fledgling rail system, beneath which Chireiden is located), the Mini-Eientei etc. Those places may be empty but I like the feel of them.

Anyway, the snow blocks that I placed about a month ago yield absolutely nothing when destroyed by hand, or shovel, or otherwise. I don't think it's supposed to happen. I wonder if I can still gather snowballs. Cause I kinda need some snow for my 'new' small project located on the mini-desert next to the Youkai Mountain's falls.

EDIT: well, balls. Or, to be more precise, a lack of them. I can't get anything from snow tiles covering the cold areas, either. Halp.

I took down the bottommost layers of the poverty art near the spawn. It was a nuisance to get around and the addition of water on both sides, inside the spawn zone so as to be extra annoying to remove, prompted me to fix the problem. I left the materials taken down in a chest nearby. It was not only me who saw this as an annoyance, as I heard others complaining about it too, and was encouraged to take it down by them also. I have also taken down the water above the sign tower as well, since that was impeding the walkway.

To me, there is a point where "look at my pile of junk" crosses into the line of becoming a nuisance and a hindrance to the other players.

I did what I thought was best for the community, and I apologize for not discussing this with the creator of it or Strafe/Stuffman, but I saw it as a task that needed to be done as soon as possible. If I upset anyone by doing this, then I am truly sorry, and I would be open to talk if you think what I did was wrong.

So, uh, about that snow, I can has like 3 stacks of snow blocks? If it can't be fixed anytime soon... Because I don't really have any other good substitute materials, no matter how hard I try.
Or a chestful. I am not a hoarder, and who knows if other people would ever need it. I'll probably just deposit it in one of the community/donation chests after I'm done.

You did fine, Hourai. Honestly, you should have seen it while you were gone. Reeds everywhere.

The Poverty Art movement was comprised of two things: sheer boredom of waiting for the update and "anything you can do, I can do better". I'm not sure if was an act of protest to try to get Stuffman and I to update the server. I personally didn't care for it, because the area became a lot more cluttered. Like I said earlier, I liked being able to see people's structures from the spawn area, not an ocean of reeds and piles of junk.

Nevertheless, people will probably make more Poverty Art to get their kicks. That's fine. Just do it elsewhere, please?

The Poverty Art movement was comprised of two things: sheer boredom of waiting for the update and "anything you can do, I can do better". I'm not sure if was an act of protest to try to get Stuffman and I to update the server. I personally didn't care for it, because the area became a lot more cluttered. Like I said earlier, I liked being able to see people's structures from the spawn area, not an ocean of reeds and piles of junk.
From the Crazy Journalist Crow who was on the spot at the time of incident:
It was all boredom, and has absolutely nothing to do with protests (otherwise they'd have mutinied already and gotten their own 1.8.1 server, then bug one of us to admin that server as well). I have no idea where the leapfrogging aspect came from, however. If there were any protests, they were mostly from Shady since everyone copied his style.

Nevertheless, people will probably make more Poverty Art to get their kicks. That's fine. Just do it elsewhere, please?

I did what I thought was best for the community, and I apologize for not discussing this with the creator of it or Strafe/Stuffman, but I saw it as a task that needed to be done as soon as possible. If I upset anyone by doing this, then I am truly sorry, and I would be open to talk if you think what I did was wrong.

Slinkys and Scones. That is all.

Hehe, yeah, mainstream is stagnant. :V
Prosperity Art? We had Overpassism, Sphereism, Subwayism, Brickism, PTMism, Poverty Art, and now Prosperity Art. Huh. Other styles such as Stuffmanist (stone towers on sea - mostly followed by him and me), Spudist (buildings everywhere there is land - often considered the 'mainstream'), Strafist (glowstone and wool addiction included), Mondoesque (Nether on World), and Satorian (or, as the cynics describe it, 'acid trip') are left forgotten by all but server art historians.

Use it wherever and whenever you want, just as long as nobody else's structures are within blast range. The larger the quantity of TNT, the further away you would need to be, just to be safe.

Dora, all my TNT is belong to you. A humble 40 tons (well, 40 charges), but it will have to do, along with what you and Herr/Frau SchwarzSparda have gathered. Where can I deposit it?

Also, starting from now on, the cult of the Moon begs anyone in possession of obsidian to donate infinite amounts of it to the construction effort of the elaborate nuclear blast shelter (which has nothing to do with the fact that it lies within the blast range of Dora and Sparda's combined explosive power) sanctuary for those wandering past the Youkai Mountain and the Subterranean Realm. An appropriate donation chest will be made soon at the spawn area. You can donate your hard-earned obsidian in the chest on the sanctuary's construction site. That is, if you can be bothered to jump over the fence that separates it from most outside hazards for now.

It's going to be the pure cage in a filthy world, a place of worship, meditation and safety for stray ones. Herobrine's soulless minions will be unable to get in by default. We're starting from a humble shrine, but we trust that with your continued support the sanctuary will be able to grow into a temple, and maybe even become a monastery one day.

Strafe, hop on IRC when you're available so we can discuss the 1.8 upgrade this weekend.

OKAY HERE'S THE DEAL

1.8 is coming tomorrow. I'll be getting to work at around 10 AM (EST).

Here's what I'll be adding during the update:
- Multiverse. Current world will remain as the main world. A second, new world will also be generated.
- I'll try to get Essentials working this time as well.
- I'll also be adding the CustomCrafting mod. This will allow me to add new craft recipes to the game! This will solve the freebie issue by letting you make mundane stuff you couldn't before. Here's a few recipes I'll be adding:
SNOW BLOCK: 4 water buckets = 4 snow blocks. Slow to produce, but free.
CLAY BLOCK: Dirt + sand. Then you get to break it down and cook it to make bricks :V
MOSSY COBBLE: Cobble + seed. This should be easy.
COCOA: Sugar + seed.
APPLE: 4 leaves = 1 apple. You can't really "craft" an apple, so you're supposedly harvesting them from the branches, or something.
CHAIN ARMOR: Available at last! Follows usual armor patterns, but made with rails! Chain armor has the same properties as gold, meaning it is twice as strong as leather but half as strong as iron. You get about 2.5x as much rails per piece of iron though so this is a pretty good deal.

I'd like to add GloWool but it does not support 1.8 currently.

Hare Jinja (Sunny Shrine)
There is a Sunny Shrine from the PTM world that I forgot to import over. We're waiting on that until after the weekend update.

Speaking of which, we're in the beginning phases of the 1.8.1 update! Stuffman will be informing you guys shortly on how things are going to go. Hopefully our current odd bugs (mob in-fighting, and snowballs) can be fixed with this transition.

I think you are really going to like some of the changes we're going to add. :3  Stay tuned, folks!

Nice ideas! Quick tips:
 - I'd think keeping the buckets when crafting snow blocks is a good idea, much like how cake keeps the buckets (for milk).
 - Clay is much more common in 1.8+, so the clay recipe probably won't be used as often.
 - Warning on 1.8.1 - pumpkin seeds do NOT spawn at all. I'd create a Pumpkin seed recipe (pumpkin + seed?) to alleviate that.

Water buckets for snow? Not a good trade. If only you can separate Water from the Bucket... eh?
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server (NEW WORLD)
Post by: Stuffman on October 15, 2011, 12:35:52 AM
I thought it would be obvious that you keep the buckets like in every other recipe :V

This makes it a bit of a pain in the ass to make since you need to grab the buckets off the grid each time and refill them, this is where the "effort" part comes in.

Quick thing I thought of while on server discussing the Crafting Mod with Strafe:

What about a recipe for sponge (eg. Sand and leaves)? This is one of the more popular resources given out (and abused back on PTM), so by adding this, then we can potentially get rid of the controlled free rare items giveaway and sellout that occur every now and then.
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server (NEW WORLD)
Post by: Dr.Strafe on October 15, 2011, 10:26:24 AM
What about a recipe for sponge (eg. Sand and leaves)?
I like this. I'm sure it would be simple enough to add to the list.

I know it's kinda late to bring this up, but there is a significant chance that everyone's /home will be compromised as a result of this transfer. Actually, with the reinstall of Essentials. It might revert back to the old saved /sethome list, that is IF they were kept somewhere.. Oh well, at least we won't have the threat of people falling to their deaths upon logging in like our last update. :V

Also, I just want to reiterate something on this new 1.8 world we will be generating: There won't be any schematic imports into that world, and it will likely be deleted once we do our next wave of updates (1.9.whatever). You guys are free to build there, but don't expect anything to be saved. Think of the new world as your Anarchy Zone. >:D

From my perspective, this is a test run. I will be looking at this new construct to see the feasibility of having two main worlds through Multiverse. The strain on the server's resources, etc. I'm still quite concerned about our current map getting corrupted with new chunks being generated from 1.8's algorithms.. Ideally, I would like us to do one final move after all this Adventure Update crap is said and done. For now, let's just (finally) enjoy the goodies of 1.8, while maintaining our established 1.7.3 world.

Hopefully, things won't get fucked up. :V

EDIT- Good grief! I just saved a backup of the world, and it is over 380MB!! Yeah, I'm going to trim out some of the nonsensical areas..

If that don't work, use more EDIT- After noodling around with MC Edit, I got it down to the 250MB range. (the backup, that is. The server still has the gargantuan file size) I need to check with a few players to make sure that the planned cuts don't delete their areas. I'll likely trim everything down a bit more, once I find a safe boundary. I'll keep you guys posted on this, as I'll need to take the server down to upload the more reduced size map files. But first, let's get this 1.8 update out of the way.

Hm.. It seems that Stuffman is still out for the time being, and I'm about to leave for work.. So, it seems that you guys just get to SUFFER a bit longer! >:D

But from what I've noticed about updates is such:
-Everyone's /home has been lost due to returning to Essentials. We get to use /sethome again!
-LWC protections have been lost, so you guys will need to redo them..
-We're using a different Death Message client now. Still working on how to use a proper syntax on players being killed by specific items. Unfortunately, I don't think we can come up with elaborate custom messages for each weapon type. It will most likely be something like "X was killed by Y's Z".  Yeah. Exciting. But at least it should display what the killer used. We'll tinker with this a bit more later.
-I don't believe that anybody's inventory got wiped.. The first time, I logged in at my construction yard with nothing. Other times, I spawned at Spawn with all of my old gear. What does this mean? Well, I can't 100% guarantee that you will spawn where you left the game, and with the same inventory you had. This might be a non-issue, but I wanted to bring it up anyway.
-We've disabled the Endermen's ability to move blocks for this update. This is because they can move just about any type of block as of 1.8. Once we update to the 1.9 stuff, we will lift this restriction and allow Endermen to do their thing again.

I'm sure there were other things that I needed to note from my perspective of the update. But I was half-asleep at the time, and now I'm late for work (again).

At the very least you aren't putting your stuff in Comic Sans. When even school systems are using that for business e-mail correspondence....>:(

a lot of squares are missing on my screen
Both Nether and World 2 haven't been rendered yet.

I need to figure out how they work.

Right now everything is just about done, I just want to try to fix some database errors caused by a logblock update to stop the log from getting spammed.

Okay, I think everything is good to go!

- Use /warp world2 to visit the new world.
- Expect TERRIBLE LAG for a while until the new map is expanded some.
- Nether is reset. You must access it from the main world; you can build nether portals in world2 but they won't actually send you anywhere.
- All chests are broken and weird after the update, destroy and replace them to fix them. LWC protections need to be remade as well. LogBlock is working though, so if you raid somebody else's chest, we'll know!
- All recipes I listed should be functional, but I don't have time to do a full diagram of them right now. Chain armor is made of iron bars (3x2 iron yields 16 iron bars, like rails, just no wood required) instead of rails, as discussed earlier. You can also make mossy stone bricks, or broken stone bricks by putting them in a 2x2 pattern.
- There's a new death messages plugin that is currently boring and empty, it'll be filled in later.
- The cave map on Dynmap works again! FUCK YEAH

I know I'm forgetting something else but fuck it go play

Aw, no sponge recipe? ...oh well, these are great additions!
EDIT: Great, DJ Chen has put up a challenge to my micspam service. Still suffering from early balancing issues, however. It has once gone to all-out war with two consecutive spams at once - me with Blazblue, Chen with some OVA - and results were hilariously terrible.
NEW RULE - Only one micspam will be played at any given time! This is common practice on TF2 servers that allow micspamming. If others are doing this, they must take turns based on song playtime.

Installed two lightweight plugins today that will disable XP orb drops on death and stop Endermen from picking stuff up. You can still get XP and still lose it when you die, the orbs just don't drop.

Also, it seems Endermen are entirely passive, they won't attack you if you look at them. Not sure if this is an SMP bug or what. So now we have harmless moe Endermen :V

I added a sponge recipe (just forgot last time); however, because sponge is very useful and not just for aesthetics, you'll have to work for it a bit! Sponge requires a 3x3 of Soul Sand.

Uh, nope, not entirely. While I was on Sparda's wall, I was watching 3 Endermen on a very nearby mountain. One more happened to spawn amongst them, and the first thing it did was try to teleport to me, watching me the whole way. I was looking at it the entire time too, so I'm not sure what was going on there. Luckily, it only teleported to the bottom of the wall, where it later died by the sun. :V

Quote from: Minecraft Wiki
In SMP, Endermen do not charge if you look at them. However, their vision bounding box is off, so if you look above the Endermen, they will become aggressive.
This might explain my previous post about them. I have yet to find out if that is the case with our server though.

Also,
Quote from: Minecraft Wiki
After becoming aggressive, they will stay frozen as long as the player doesn't move the mouse. When the player moves the mouse, even if only by one pixel and in any case regardless of whether it's still pointing at the Enderman, it will quickly run at high speed towards the player. If they are a long distance away, the Enderman will teleport...
Also might explain it. :ohdear:

Yeah, Endermen are kinda borked in 1.8. When we get 1.9 though, they are going to have much more life, taking 4 hits from a diamond sword to kill them, but they'll just teleport away making it harder.

Reminder to townies. Spawn on world1 isn't anarchy world. :V
I noticed a shroom tower unlit. Monsters spawn on giant mushrooms, so I had to ladder and light it all. I also noticed mushrooms by spawn. One was so close the spawn is protecting part of the cap, so now were forced to be creeped and such until the cap parts are removed.
on a small note, the top of the vine farm wasn't lit, resulting in me watching a spider climb off it, and not bothering to go there till it was gone.
Don't forget to light your areas stuff guys. :V (I lit all but that cap piece that I cant do nothin with, but the unnecessary mushrooms at spawn besides the tower were removed)

Quick note on the main world now that we've updated!
All the areas, even 1.7 chunks, are under new biomes (according to Zombe's Mod and the grass information)! Here's examples (current biomes listed, with former ones as well if I've known it):
 - Hakurei City: Grassland -> Taiga (wolves spawn naturally) in north and east (Ikubi, Blackstone Tower, Milk Bar, Strafe Office), swampland in south (Hakugyokurou, Miko Tavern, Sparda Castle)
 - Mega-housing district: Mostly plains, but river in parts of DinoHaus and Castle PX with extreme hills to the south.
 - EPFort + Poverty Cube: Plains (previously was mixed)
 - Shroom Village: Hills -> Plains
 - Infernal Republic: Desert (wait what?)
 - Cadmas' Snowfield: Desert, Extreme Hills, others. Formerly mostly taiga or tundra.
 - Youkai Mountain, Eientei: Swampland
 - Grinder: Large parts in taiga (hey it fits now), parts in river or ocean
 - SunnyTree: Extreme Hills, with Plains to west

Strafe and Stuffman seem to have known about this beforehand, but I posted this regardless in case things haven't been noticed yet, as well as to show what happened where.

I demand: When I use a Yuuka or Yuugi skin, I want to twohit monsters with fists and have 50 hearts HP.

Quick finding from your local Crazy Journalist Crow EP:
If you have Smooth Lighting OFF, glass will work normally and not cast shadows behind it (notably in Strafe's Pagoda and the Jimmy Tower). However, if you do so, expect the stair types of 1.8 to have lighting issues (tested in Dusty's house area - stone brick stairs - and Strafe's Office - wood stairs - which work fine).
Turn it on (or any setting other than Off for Optifine users), however, and the reverse is true.

This will be very odd until it gets fixed, likely in 1.9.

Area has been repaired. It's not back to the way it was, but Dorakyura can build another sunflower field there if he wishes. The glass/lava pillar has been removed due to being in a state of disrepair.
I warned you that something like this could happen, Jimmy.

Having known about the trap, I wish that I had disabled it, in retrospect. I knew there was TNT there with a button and a sign beckoning someone to push it.. I just didn't know that there were 40+ charges lying beneath the ground.

Honestly, guys. This kind of crap doesn't need to happen. If you want to get your grief on, please do it in the alternate world. That's why it is dubbed the Anarchy Zone, after all. :V  The main world will be sticking around for quite a while..

This came out very nicely. It's only the first part of the song (i.e. the first portion during the beginning) but I really like it so far. I'm most likely going to move it to a tower (how high / wide idk), and I'm not sure where it will go yet. (might need to connect it to a second, but hopefully not) Have fun with it. (just don't go changing the notes, but if you do accidentally, don't sweat it, I know what notes they are and can fix it in a minute :P)

Confirmed direct hit. I did it. What the hell is up with Shady always taking the blame for that kinda things?
I gave most of my stuff away, but there's plenty of iron and a handful of diamonds at the supply depot beneath my lighthouse. As always, the chests are public and the materials are free to take for those of you who need it. Out.

(Btw. EP, I thought you would dislike my vandalism, so I placed a chest with glass and cobble on the ground floor of your tower. You still have to go through the mundane task of removing the paint... well, wool, yourself.)

Post by: Dr.Strafe on October 20, 2011, 11:18:01 PM
This is an important message from your friendly, neighborhood Dr.Strafe.

Two things, people. First, the player Cadrin has been removed from the whitelist. He is the one responsible for the Peace Sign on EP's Tower. I had granted him a reprieve after the TNT incident at Dorakyura's flowerbed (Oct. 18), but it seems that was a misplaced trust. Two griefing incidents within three days of each other is a bit much.  Also, his recent actions have been rolled back, so the Tower is restored. He's not banned outright, but he can sit out for a while. Stuffman and I will discuss things further.

Now the big one. ANARCHY WORLD OPERATIONS HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED. Clearly, this is sending people the wrong message. The purpose of the Anarchy World was so that people can have fun in a "no rules" environment without posing a threat to the main world. But it seems that people don't want to run around in that world, and have opted to do it in the main world anyway. Besides the griefing, there has been a significant increase in PVP inside the main world. Just people attacking others for the hell of it. This is wearing thin on my patience.

Seeing that people aren't interested in keeping anarchy to the Anarchy Zone, I have opted to remove that notion all together. We still have World2, but now it has been restored to before the massive destruction. You guys are free to build and explore there, but not allowed to grief. If people do start building there, then I will consider saving their schematics from World2 as well.

Honestly, it seems that since we can craft everything from 1.8, the need for the second world has declined sharply. Not very many people go there, even with the Anarchy allowed. We'll see how this pans out.

Also:
I'm officially fed up with the poverty crap. If you have to build it at least don't do it at spawn.
Totally agree. Whether it is random art, or annoying sound machines, please don't litter this junk around the spawn area.

Post by: CadrinHaverit on October 20, 2011, 11:59:32 PM
So this was a deliberate move on your part to take a break from MC?
Nnnot quite. It's complicated. *sigh* I'd rather not go in anywhere close to my mind, but let's do this anyway.

I felt like doing graffiti. I thought it would be kinda cool to see how far I could push it and see for myself when griefing becomes unacceptable. I was torn between two projects I had in my mind at the time: the random grungy peace sign with "('EP!' written backwards)ACE" written above it, and "KAGUYA ROCKS" on the side of the church of Mokou, but then the second one would be outright vandalism that could not be explained in any way as being a work of art, and let's say that I was not interested in doing some graffiti in MC purely for griefing purposes. Then there was the idea of writing pseudo-ideological phrases, things like "CONSERVE FOOD - DON'T SPRINT" somewhere, but neither the public farm complex nor the wool center (which is very rich in wheat) had any appropriately sized walls (not to mention, the wool center is protected by something that does not let you modify blocks in its vicinity). And besides, I'm not even sure if lack of food will be a serious issue in the future, but it does not seem to be a realistic scenario, with a stack of bread lasting people many Minecraft days.

Can't say I regret doing that. Seeing you react was an invaluable experience in itself. As is being banned from the server. Sure it hurts, but when I finally got punished, I felt that it was good. At the end of the day, nobody got hurt and I found out more or less where the uncrossable threshold lies. And I hope that I did enough good for other players in the past that that act of chaotic neutrality set my karma back at zero.

The prejudice remains, though. What is a person who gives you generously one day, only to plant tons of TNT beneath your sunflower field afterwards? I behaved unpredictably, and it caused good and bad. Obviously a person of my inclination does not quite fit in our beautiful, orderly Minecraft Gensokyo. And, well... can't fight Fantasy Heaven when the Gensokyo Cop is after you, can you? (Let's forget for a while about princess Kaguya, who for some reason I think got used to pain and dying so much she does not even treat death as something more annoying than a paper cut, and could probably completely ignore Reimu's attempts to beat some sense into her if she wanted to.) (That would probably become tiresome to her after a while, assuming she would be unable to sleep because of the unending assault... That being said, does Reimu not get tired too, even while floating away from reality? Would the two have to take a sleep break once in a while?)

I'm indifferent on that. Won't complain about being unable to play Minecraft with you. It's gonna suck being unable to see Agent's progress in making a note block array that plays Border of Life, among other things, but life is so full of diversity and other things one can attend to... Justice has been done. And that's great.

Quote
Can't find this chest you're speaking of, and Strafe already rolled it back...maybe the rollback's why I can't find it.
Makes sense, as I placed the chest after assaulting the wall of your tower. If it got rolled back, it'd be only natural for the chest to be wiped out of existence.
I also placed a neat little sign next to it... You mean you haven't even checked out the inside of your tower? I mean, if one of my creations got "refurbished" like that, I'd seek answers within. We must think a little differently.
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server ( 1.8 - NEW WORLD(S) )
Post by: Dr.Strafe on October 21, 2011, 12:10:20 AM
I opted for the rollback for two reasons: Reconstructing the tower would have taken more time and resources, and I wanted to undo any other possible griefing that wasn't yet discovered. While this was a lesser offense than the TNT incident, it happened too soon afterward. ESPECIALLY since you said you were going to take a break from Minecraft for a while.

But this was also to serve as a point to anyone else who has begun to get out of control due to the Anarchy nonsense. We won't tolerate this shit anymore. There are a few more players that I will be keeping my eye on. I pray that they do not push this issue any further.

I had fun in the 1.8 world... till at least people only went there JUST to loot other players of there stuff.  Honestly i don't think anarchy was the right word to use it just made everyone a penis wrinkle and just want to loot other players. IIRC PX was killed in 1.8 world, looted, he raged, then did something with fire :V. Probably the only reason I avoid 1.8 world.  Also apparently merely mentioning going to the 1.8 world gets people to come to the spawn and start killing you? happened plenty of times. Although planting giant mushrooms everywhere, getting rained on by tnt, and just sitting sniping out creeps was all fun.

I heard something about allowing infinite flight - well, I'm opposed to it (makes the game too easy), but you two can decide on this.

Alternatively, add a Challenge world instead to sedate those of us who find the main game too easy.

Honestly, it seems that since we can craft everything from 1.8, the need for the second world has declined sharply. Not very many people go there, even with the Anarchy allowed. We'll see how this pans out.
I'm still against the whole crafting bit myself for the reason you just stated.  By being able to craft just about everything that was difficult to obtain or the stuff that came in 1.8  suddenly devalued the new world completely.  For instance, strongholds are now only good for the chests and even then the contents of my most chests are mediocre.  I understand that the crafting is useful but it just means that the 1.8 world serves virtually no purpose now.  Sure there's the exploration aspect but 1.8 is still pretty scarce in exploration as it is.   While I dont feel every item needs to be scrapped, I do think you should make people have to work for the 1.8 stuff rather than let then take the easy way out.

I'm officially fed up with the poverty crap. If you have to build it at least don't do it at spawn.

I'm still against the whole crafting bit myself for the reason you just stated.  By being able to craft just about everything that was difficult to obtain or the stuff that came in 1.8  suddenly devalued the new world completely.
Agreed greatly here. 1.8 world was, and still is, not that appealing.

But since the majority of players are in it more for the building aspect, I say you can keep those recipes (and put a link to the recipes post on the OP).
Note that as proven by our recent Anarchy, a vanilla 1.8 world is not going to be enough to satisfy the most ardent adventure-centric players - for the rest, a main-world-based exploration operation is plenty. For those types of people I will once again recommend custom content such as custom settings (PTM, Biosphere) or custom maps (mentioned earlier, with Skyblock being my recommendation).

Apparently we are getting copied and they then amplify the issue at hand. Monkey-see-monkey-do is the way the server runs.

Hehe, go for it, but I think flight will be the more mainstream of the two. :V

I, however, am a high recommender of modded gameplay (why else would I play more VSH than vanilla TF2?), so I don't see too much of a problem.

I suppose that's true but now dungeons and strongholds are virtually useless.  It seems the nether and the ender will be the only thing of excitement in terms of exploration come 1.9.

So, here's a list of ideas and mods copied in various manners, just because I'm half-awake:
*DDR*
 - Overpass systems (Shady -> me -> various during PTM)
 - Towers on sea (Stuffman -> me, Strafe)
 - Mega-towers (Stuffman -> me -> Jimmy)
 - Poverty Sphere attempts (Shady -> others)
 - Grinders (PX -> Rawr, me)
 - Villages (Rukin -> Koishi -> Potatoes -> Sparda)
 - Subway systems (me, Bio -> Haku, Potatoes)
 - Communal Nether bases (Eraiya -> me -> Sunny -> no one)
 - Flight & Sprinting (Koishi, Eraiya -> me -> Dino, Shady -> PX, Piney)
 - Zones of control (me -> Cadmas, Shady, Exuro)
*BROHOSTER*
 - Mega-castles and manors (Sunny -> Dino -> other Potatoes, PX, Strafe)
 - Stores & Economic systems (me -> Sunny, Chen, Shady)
 - 'Chennels' (Chen -> others)
*PTM*
 - Arenas (me -> PX, Chen)
 - Firewalls and fire roofs (Dino -> Jimmy -> Shady, Exuro, me)
*CURRENT*
 - Poverty art (Shady -> server dailies)
 - Music contraptions (BSoD -> me, PX)
 - Swimming pools (me -> Potatoes)

I am surprised they haven't copied Poverty Boxes yet.

I will not have a problem if they decide to do so, but it's still not what I am recommending. Do that and I say turn this server into a Creative one already!

As one who is more for absurd challenges and higher difficulty this is not a good development.

Post by: Dr.Strafe on October 21, 2011, 11:52:29 AM
It appears that I was mistaken about the custom recipes. Stone bricks can be crafted in 1.8 by default. (http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Stone_Brick#Crafting) The custom recipes allow us to create the other types of stone brick blocks: Mossy and Cracked. I believe that Stuffman provided these two block types because they cannot be crafted otherwise. If I remember correctly, they can't even be mined.. (not too sure on that one)

Here is a list of our current custom recipes, along with my thoughts on them:
Clay Blocks - supposedly more plentiful in 1.8, but we should keep this recipe for large scale brick projects
Snow Blocks - temporary until we get proper snowfields in 1.9
Mossy Cobblestone - Quite popular, but a bit rare if people wanted this for large structures. We can debate this one, but I prefer that it stay.
Mossy Brick - not sure if it is able to be crafted or obtained through normal means
Cracked Brick - not sure if it is able to be crafted or obtained through normal means
Apple - temporary until Notch introduces Apple Trees.
Cocoa - this equates the availability of the dyes. Cookies are inefficient, so keeping this shouldn't be a problem. Will be removed if Notch introduces cocoa plants
Pumpkin Seeds - Temporary until Notch fixes this bug with 1.9
Chain Armor - Pretty much for fun, but it is quite popular
Sponge - Cannot be crafted or obtained
Web - Cannot be crafted or obtained

That's it. We could remove the Mossy and Cracked brick recipes to give people a reason to seek Strongholds.. but we would first have to know that they can be mined. I don't believe that any of the other recipes pose a threat.

So, here's a list of ideas and mods copied in various manners, just because I'm half-awake:
Inspiration and plagiarism are two separate things. Nobody holds ownership of any one idea for structures. Personally, I had wanted to build a large mansion (a la Castlevania) long before I began playing online. Since Stuffman and Sunny constructed similar projects before me, does it mean that I am stealing their ideas? Hardly. Nobody is copying people's structures block-by-block here.

In the flying mod case, it was almost guaranteed that others would want it as well. It's the whole "me too, me too" syndrome. Yes, Stuffman and I have discussed enabling flight, but I don't think it is going to happen. And we are definitely NOT becoming a Creative Mode server.
EP, if you enjoy a challenge and think the game is too easy, then how about you disable your own flight mods? :V

Also, I think we are done with our adventures with PTM. Don't expect it to make a return, not even for the sake of added challenge.

Is there a way to consume the hungerbar when flying? About 5x the rate of sprinting  :derp: (or even more)

The custom recipes allow us to create the other types of stone brick blocks: Mossy and Cracked.
Mossy and Cracked stone bricks can also be obtained by default. I don't know whether it's considered a bug or not (it should be one, though), but depending on the direction you face while placing or mining a stone brick block, you can obtain a mossy/cracked one instead of the default block.

I'd keep sponge and web but also make them hard to obtain massive quantities of (the current Soul Sand recipe does a good job with that).

Even then they won't be terribly common, and if you already have mossy cobble recipes you might as well keep the cracked and mossy stone brick ones.

Comments on various lines of conversation:

- Cracked/mossy brick recipes aren't going away because they're non-replenishable. There's only one stronghold. Clay is the only one I would call questionable since apparently it's so much easier to find, but eh whatever.
- At this point I wouldn't really have a problem with everyone having warp compass but the problem is it puts a lot of stress on the server to load chunks that fast, so I don't think it's feasible.
- I actually wouldn't mind another PTM world as an alternate world because you can make some really dramatic and impressive structures there, it just completely sucks to have your home base there :V But yeah I don't think we'll be using it, since I'm not sure how PTM would interact with mineshafts and strongholds and the like.

Three, technically, and there's quite a bit of those. Point still stands, either way.
I'd contemplate removing clay as well, but as you said, eh whatever.

This would also be a reason not to support infinite flight. Even when I was the only active flight/sprint user, if I went far enough chunks wouldn't keep up and I'd have to wait for them to render before running further.

Moreover, warp compass is tied to WorldEdit commands, which are mostly Op-only and would otherwise require a bit of tweaking in Permissions to allow end users the WE commands the warp compass uses. Flying, however, is client-side mod, combined with changes in server files to allow flight (likely Permissions again).

Alas, PTM is on hiatus now and no 1.8 version is out. However Biosphere is updated, so I'd suggest that as an alternate world.

Oh I guess I remembered wrong, I thought the strongholds being increased to three was one of the 1.9 things. (Still I don't understand why they can't just spawn again after a given number of chunks away from existing ones, instead of having a fixed number of them)

The hunger for flying thing sounds interesting, lemme see if any mod makers have had that idea.

Sounds like an idea! I love how it acts as a major deterrent to flying everywhere anytime. Actually, I say that with this, I would be okay with allowing infinite flight.

Then I'll have to post about how to have that mod installed.

It's infinite in 1.9, and yeah, I think they do that distance-based spawning there.

I like this as well. Hopefully there is a mod that will allow it. If we're looking into providing advanced movement, I think that this method of flight is the best option. Hopefully, the map won't explode in size.. Anyway, I don't believe that there is a way to isolate the Warp Compass from the rest of WorldEdit, so.. :V

Yep, flight it is. I think the flight hunger use will have to be done server-side, as Zombe's treats flying just like walking/running by default and the server is what detects the actual flight.

Also, I say there should be a clear delineation between flying and sprinting when this gets implemented. I don't think faster sprinting should get any hunger penalty, seeing as it is quite difficult to control at breakneck speeds (and we take lots of fall and even suffocation damage this way). Flying, though, should when it is in use (even hovering should deal hunger).

Where did my torches go and what in the heck gave you any sort of coherent idea to think, "hey lemee dig here hurr hurr"

I torched it, claimed it, and said I planned to build there. And now there's a honking eyesore in the middle of it. And now if I do want to build there, I have to fill it in if I don't want a huge pit under it.

I'm not happy and before I start tearing down walls and spamming gravel in that pit to try and get some normalcy to my field, may I have some mod's go ahead to do it? Cause I ask first hint hint.

Really? Why in a giant, deforested, torched field of all the places would you choose there to spam a hole?

Anarchy has been killed lately - see Strafe's post. Moreover the actions you did were on the wrong world.

EDIT: Server is back up and running! We had to disable our server's automatic authentication to minecraft.net (a MinecraftForums suggestion), which means that cracked clients could go in, but I believe the whitelist will be able to stop them.

Strafe has brought up the idea of putting both Cadrin's (lighthouse, Sanctuary) and Artemis' (Dwarf Bar) areas under auction to the highest bidder(s), since both are banned from server. Goods from the first structure (which there are a lot of, and showed heavy inventory hacking) have been re-taken for the greater community interest (this has yet to be done for the other two, and last one has confirmed LWC protection), but the real thing here is that these properties/land lots may be up on the market.

Also, I will just make it clear ahead of time that I will not assist with setup and management of any mods you use, except Optifine. You will have to manage those (inc. flying, sprinting, minimap, etc.) yourself, and the only real rules to them are 'use responsibly in a manner safe for others' and 'do not exceed 50% of the Crazy Journalist Crow's speed'.

Artemis == tomhoffman.

We banned him once on Brohoster due to the lava bucket incident (which you were a victim of), but during PTM Strafe opted to add him back onto whitelist. Now that he went back on and did these incidents, we are banning him again, this time very likely permanent.

Also, a note - in the event that infinite flight is enabled but the hunger mod we mentioned is not available, we may have to consider using a map size-limiting mod to keep the filesize somewhat reasonable. I would suggest using a multiple of 16 for the lengths of all sides (as chunks are 16x16x128m), and to have total size between 8192^2 and 16384^2 blocks (divide by 8 for Nether), to give enough space for distant types/larger projects, ease of distance, and most importantly, a manageable filesize.

Total size of all maps is about 500 MB right now, which is surprisingly not bad. We have a 2 GB limit.

I'll probably send some compensation your way once I can log back on. But regardless, I'd have to say that everyone should prepare for a total loss of their inventory at any moment. Who knows when that could happen?

Thanks, but that isn't necessary. I'm just a little angry that lightning, not only struck me, not only killed me, but also destroyed all of my stuff I spent hours getting. Getting hit by lightning is rare enough, but killing me and destroying everything was just bullshit. I sort of got over it now.

But I think the server might hate me, I decided to reinforce the house I spawn in when I /home because the house is so small that if the creeper blows up any wall, the chest inside will be destroyed. So I wait at spawn until it's after noon and not raining to /home so there aren't any monsters nearby. Im almost done reinforcing it and when I look at the house I notice I forgot the wall that the chest is next to. Just as I place the first dirt block, a creeper blows up in my face. Since I didn't reinforce that wall, my chest was destroyed, but fortunately, I managed to save everything inside. I am now paranoid and afraid to go anywhere outside the spawn area.

Alright let's into some math if we want to talk about limiting map size

- Relatively busy regions average around 5 MB.
- Each region is 32x32 chunks, or 512x512 blocks.

Let's say we want to set a rough max map size of 1 GB. That gives us 200 regions.

We can have two maps at 10 x 10 regions (5120 x 5120 blocks); or one map at 14 x 14 regions (7168 x 7168 blocks). This is quite large, you can look at the coordinates on the dynamic map to get a sense of the scale. Go out to about 2500/3500 from spawn, that's where the border would be.

The actual size of a map with these borders should be considerably smaller than 1 GB as most chunks are not inhabited. This, and the 1 GB headroom for other stuff, would leave room for the Nether, which we wipe often to replenish glowstone.

Doing two maps with set borders might be fun as we could establish a few portals that lead to the same coordinates on both maps.

I think 2 maps at 10x10 regions is better, because we can have two completely different worlds (even now, we have a pretty mountainous 1.8 map, while the 1.7 world is relatively flat).
Plus that would avoid us having to walk a very long way to some of the buildings by having them closer to a second spawn (albeit in a different world).

Hm, that is an idea, even though I only really advise map size limiting for the case of allowing infinite flight. It also seems a tad on the small end, IMO, so considering the actual usage of the map I think 16x16 regions (8192x8192) works better for a single-map configuration.

But as resources then become more finite here, the second world idea is a good idea as well. I'd first make it very unusual (Biosphere being an example) to give more challenge in obtaining resources, and then periodically (maybe every quarter) remove that world and regenerate a new one.

Well, we'll move stuff from the 1.73 world to a 1.9 one, and see above for my advice on second world.

However, note that we will also have Nether and End to deal with.

Oh right the End. Also Sky Dimension...

ffff

Well that's why I left a GB open, but at the same time yeah we will definitely need some kind of border when 1.9 finally arrives.

Strafe has stated that he's willing to do the schematic nonsense again for 1.9, so we'll be starting a new map(s) when that hits. We just need to decide what kind of setup we want before then and what our limits are.
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server ( 1.8 - NEW WORLD(S) )
Post by: DX7.EP on October 22, 2011, 09:20:14 PM
Not 100% sure if the Sky Dimension will be there, as Notch seems to have refitted it as the End.

Also, this was something that I think may be a good idea for us hunting types - revolver mod (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/363558-181-revolver-mod-v13/).
This seems to be one of the better balanced gun mods (high cost of crafting needed parts, low fire rate, small clip size) and has quite a good range, making it (in combination with Optifine's zoom feature) great for sniping.
It only needs ModLoaderMp Server (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/382599-181-modloadermp-for-craftbukkit-and-canary/) (Bukkit version linked) on server-side, ModLoader + AudioMod (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/75440-v181-risugamis-mods-everything-updated/) on clientside. However, its support on SMP seems ambiguous at this current time. It seems that this mod is not SMP compatible, as it does not use ModLoaderMP yet. :(
I did consider WW2 Guns instead due to SMP support, but the Bazooka and Panzer are potential griefer's heavens, and balance vs. bow and sword users is not quite there.

At that rate though you could also add chair mod, shelf mod, and others that have been requested. Then again, as a supporter of mild-moderate modded gameplay (usually just enhancements to the vanilla formula that encourage different uses of older items as well), this comes to little surprise that I would not mind seeing these as well.

Strafe has stated that he's willing to do the schematic nonsense again for 1.9, so we'll be starting a new map(s) when that hits. We just need to decide what kind of setup we want before then and what our limits are.
In the meantime, we can look into other alternate worlds (sphere, for example) to give people some experience with them. We can decide as a group which setup that we will go with. I think that once we update to 1.9, we shouldn't need more than four worlds: Main, Nether, End, and Alternate. We don't have a terribly large group of players, so we really don't need to max out our HDD with chunks that people will likely not use.

Also, on the subject of map sizes. I've really been harping on them getting out of hand because I have been storing our backups locally. I don't have infinite HDD space myself, so having 1-2GB of backups each time is rather unnecessary. :ohdear: I mean, we're not thinking of establishing all of the chunks before we begin building, are we?

Now as for the update/transfer itself. Here's the thing about schematics.. I can save them in two different ways:
-Online in real time with the player there for immediate feedback. This method allows me to centralize the saving to my location, which makes placing it much easier and more accurate.
-Offline through MC Edit. Selecting the bounding field is much easier, since I can see through walls and fly through them as well. Accurate placement is completely thrown out the window, and it requires a bit more setup on my part. (uploading, etc.)

The last phase of schematics was a mixture of the two methods. Certain buildings benefited from each method. The only reason that the saving of schematics took me so long (besides the amount of them :V ) is the fact that I was stumbling about the PTM world, making schematics in a quite dangerous environment. Lots of scaffolding was involved. After the saving was complete, placing them was a breeze.. well, the ones I saved online were easy.. :V

I say all of this because I need to know when to begin the next phase of schematics. I will need to work with each player individually, and that is easy with the player live on location. However, that would mean that after we generate our new main world in 1.9, we would need to have the 1.8 and 1.7 worlds as the alternates. This is only temporary until I have completed the saving for the most part. Alternatively, I can save our final backup of the 1.7 and 1.8 worlds and do all of the saving offline, so that the upgrade/new world setup happens all at once. This method means that people will likely get their homes at a little slightly slower rate.. and they will need to tell me where and how big their facilities are.

The latter will likely be the path that we choose whenever we update again, therefore in the mean time, I will need to ask you all for some help on the planning phase. When it came to saving Stuffman's burrow from PTM, he marked the corners of the bounding field for me. I really liked that setup, because that meant that the measurements were handled before by the players themselves. I highly suggest that you guys do this as well, since you guys know your structures better than I do. It's simple: Imagine your facility inside of an invisible 3D barrier shaped like a cube. Place a block at opposite corners of the area. (ie. top-left-near and bottom-right-far) Colored wool works best because you can pick a color that stands out. Make sure that the "markers" are still visible in the world, and not covered up by anything. This method isn't required, but it greatly eases my burden, and ensures that I don't "forget" anything. :V

Once 1.9 hits, we will still have a slight waiting period to make sure that it's stable enough for the transfer. During that time, I suggest that people prepare their properties for the transfer and schematic saving. I would like to save as many of the schematics as possible online during this period. I will still save a backup of 1.7 and 1.8 worlds so that I can access them for offline needs.

Well, this turned out to be a larger post than I had intended..

EDIT- Almost forgot. I do still have the schematics that I have saved from the previous worlds. A few of the structures that have been imported haven't been changed or used since they were imported into this world. The Mushroom Kingdom is the best example of this that I can think of. Therefore, such places won't need to have another schematic created for them.

Anyway, if you guys can establish the bounding fields early for me, then this will go much smoother once the time comes. Thanks!

You don't need to save "obsolete" backups. Just keep the two newest backups or so.

Offline schematics are best because it gives Strafe the "final" version of the building, with all chest inventories at their most recent contents. It also lets him work while I take the server down to update and redo plugins and such.

I'd go as far as to say that if you want a schematic made, you are required to place corner bounding blocks. This will speed things up tremendously.

How do we mark off underground portions?
Two ways, really. Either find your X & Z value and then dig downward to the appropriate Y layer, or go to the Y layer first and carve your way to the X & Z. With the first option, I recommend placing something like glass or a hatch over the hole so that people don't fall to their doom. Anyway, this takes a fair amount of measurement and triangulating with the coordinates supplied through F3, but it's not too bad. For upper portions, just build scaffolding toward the correct position, place the marker and then you can destroy the scaffold.

Also, give yourself added space for any torches that are along walls, or any flooring that supports redstone work. But please be realistic, and don't reserve half of a county for your schematic. :V  NOTE: Hakurei Village will get a pass on this "requirement" for the markers, I plan to save the town in full, and that is easily done through MC Edit. Again, nothing below the surface level of Hakurei Village will be saved.

Like Stuffman said, we have plenty of time before all of this comes to pass. Feel free to track me down and ask me to weigh in on your area. I need to start compiling a list of areas to be saved.

Another one of these? So soon? Really? *sigh*
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM DR.STRAFE

Since music composition in Minecraft is all the rage right now, I need to let you all know of a peculiar bug I noticed regarding Noteblocks. It seems that WorldEdit hates the little buggers, and gripes at me whenever I try to use them in conjunction with the plugin. Specifically, I cannot use WorldEdit to save, copy, or load ANY schematic that has a Noteblock AT ALL. It just won't let me, and spouts out some Java-related error. Looking into the situation, it seems that it is a bug within WorldEdit that the programmers don't feel pressed into fixing.

What does this mean? Well, I have bad news and weird news. The bad news is that any potential schematic must not have a noteblock anywhere inside of it. Any noteblocks therein must be removed prior to saving. You can store them in chests with no problem, they just cannot be placed in the normal world. To my knowledge, there are only a couple of noteblock projects that will need this treatment. AgentOfTheBSoD's "Border of Life" song, and Sunny's doorbell inside her flower shop. There might be more that I am not aware of. I apologize, but those blocks will need to be stored prior to the final saving for the update. Once in the new world, then they can be brought back out.

Now for the weird news. To completely conflict with what I had just said, I will be allowing one particular noteblock project to continue: Dr.Rawr's "Beloved Tomboyish Daughter" song that is under construction inside of PX's grinder.


We still have a few weeks before any of this comes to pass, but I felt the need to inform you all ahead of time.

EDITED because Rawr retired his song project..  :(

Huh, I added a small 5 note chime to my Cube this morning (not even 6 hours before you posted)... guess I'll take the noteblocks away before you save the schematic, but I guess I can keep it for a while until then?

Oh, and my musical project will have to wait then (I haven't even completed it in SSP, so this is no issue at all).

Edit: And by the way, anyone here knowledgeable enough in redstone to tell me how I can have a Y shaped circuit go into, say, the left branch, and the second time into the right one?

Oh yeah. You guys can keep your noteblocks around for now. They will just need to be taken down whenever we get ready for the transfer.

Yeah, Agent's song has similar issues, even with it being a smaller scale project (for now). It doesn't "hang" every time, but whenever it does, it's quite noticeable.  At least now we know what was causing all of those pauses in the notes when the "PX7" music machine was on.

OK, this is your friendly crazy journalist crow EP making the report of the morning.

1> People seem to love trying to break into the bank vault in Houraiville (alternative names include Dollas and Dollstown). Since the first mentioned incident we've had at least 3 more occur, one of which caused more damage than expected thanks to user error. Advice - don't rob vault, and I'd improve the detection mechanism to be not so destructive (obsidian maybe?).

2> PX's grinder was turned to a mob shotgun but has faced a vicissitude of problems, namely mobs attacking each other and creeper-bombing the loading mechanism. I'd stay clear of the grinder for now as it seems to be under repairs amid one such affair (and more arising from failed fixing attempts), last time I checked.

3> AFK party is the new main thing now amongst the late-night/early morning (server time) population (namely, Shady and I are the major participants).

4> Strafe seems to be in support of the Shelves mod (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/75440-v181-risugamis-mods-everything-updated/), as am I. I think it adds on considerably to decoration ability, and would be especially useful for shopkeepers and homeowners. The only problem? Like the revolver mod I recommended, it does not seem SMP compatible (again, use of Modloader but not the SMP-oriented ModloaderMp).

So, it seems that everyone that was working on a noteblock project has scrapped their project. I didn't mean to scare you guys into quitting them all together! Nah, I know what's going on. Agent is looking for a bigger location, and Rawr's didn't come out as expected.  :( Hopefully it can be resurrected to save us from the endless flapping doors.

I also need to tell you guys about another bug that seems to happen through importing. I'm sure you've probably heard me mention it before, but I feel that I need to reiterate. When importing the schematics, Pistons have a tendency to reorient themselves into facing downward. This causes all sorts of craziness with piston machines. However, it is easily fixed. Just correct the piston's placement again.

I haven't quite isolated the cause of the problem (WorldEdit vs MC Edit, or even the use of schematics themselves), but I am still looking into it. Actually, I've had a couple instances to where the pistons inside of the Wool Center re-oriented themselves without any schematic work at all. It blew my mind because that area is protected, and only I can modify the mechanism.

Anyway, I'm not going to throw up the same warning message that I did yesterday about "avoiding" noteblocks. I can still save schematics with pistons.. just expect to have a little bit of maintenance work ahead of you once it is imported. Some mechanisms are going to be a pain to repair. (I'm lookin' at you, PX Elevator) Also, keep in mind that pistons can push up to 12 blocks at once, so this might disrupt any redstone work or structure design.

I hadn't quite announced it, but I'll be recreating Illusionary Night from Imperishable Night, and hide it all in a huge box that will be used to sprite.

Woah, PX's elevator will be a huge pain to repair... Luckily I will at worst have to replace 6 pistons.

So, no more PX-7IIFD, and instead we get the RawrX-5. (referring to both the Yamaha DX7IIFD (http://www.vintagesynth.com/yamaha/dx7ii.php) and RX-5 (http://www.vintagesynth.com/yamaha/rx5.php), respectively)

Off to either find a version of such a mod that uses ModloaderMp, at the least.
One catch with installing mods that use ModloaderMp - client-side, everyone would then have to install the client versions of both the mod and ModloaderMp, along with any other mods used by the former (such as Turbo Model if we wanted planes).

I'd also install ModloaderMp on the server jar just in case. We can then discuss what mods to put in later.

As for pistons, I have 43 deployed ATM but as they are all facing downward already it isn't as much of a problem for me.

Having everyone install mods on their own accord just to play on server is something I don't like either - I prefer server-side for content, client-side for per-user enhancements.

Some suggest that we make pre-modded minecraft.jar files and have users download them, but then support will be stuck with the creators of the prefab (this was a reason why I opted against offering some of the mods I'm using). Moreover, I feel that client-side mods are the end user's responsibility for their use, installation, and management, and those who are clamouring 'I need flight mod' and the sort are, for the most part, the ones who aren't willing to undertake the obligations themselves.

...the modding API, once released, would considerably improve things..right now the server-side only mod I know most about is Biosphere.

Honestly, setting up a TNT trap inside your own establishment will always end in the same result. Some random passerby will be overcome by curiosity and just blow it up anyway. (see Dorakyura's flowerbed trap from last week) It is your call to establish such a trap, but I think that demanding TNT as compensation for the destruction doesn't help the matter.
1: It's your choice to set up the trap, therefore it should only use your resources.
2: I think that soliciting their help to rebuild the place strikes me as a better punishment. But then again, everyone is quick to deny their involvement when things go to hell. Even when caught red-handed, they'll still say that it wasn't their fault. (see Sunny's detonation of the trap)

I believe the answer to all of this is to not have such a trap in the first place. That is unless you like rebuilding the same building three times a day. All the signs in the world exclaiming that CAUTION. THIS DOOR IS BOOBY-TRAPPED are meaningless seeing that someone will always want to see if it is true. Also, logblock doesn't catalog someone stepping on a pressure plate, so you can see that this is only going to waste your time rebuilding the place as the situation happens another seventeen times. :V

Post by: Hanged Hourai on October 27, 2011, 04:22:23 AM
In response to PX:

1. I have every right to make a tnt trap, especially in a place where you know not to tread. Hence the "Do not enter sign"
2. You have no right to disarm any of my things, trap or otherwise.
3. I made the trap non-lethal on purpose for the time being.
4. You deliberately tripped it after I said "no"
5. You left right after blowing it up, which shows your intent was not of curiosity, but to waste my stuff.
6. It is common knowledge that my bank will blow people up. You entered it knowing a basic idea of what would happen.
7. Don't justify your griefing with spreading "peace" and a "giant swastika"

tl;dr
What you did was bad and you should feel bad in addition to giving me my tnt.

And also, if you are going to blow up the tnt, you best be on it or pay me back.

@Strafe

I am fine with random passerby falling in it and tripping it. I'll pay for that. What he did was throw junk on it when he knew what it would do to deliberately set it off.

You fall down a pitfall that is made so you lose some of you health (7-8 hearts) without armor. then you get pushed into the dark fighting arena made of obsidian. The mechanism will open the monster lift doors. The only way to survive is to solve a puzzle that is written on the walls and enter the correct code into a button system, while being attacked by a infinite stream of monsters muahahahaha (or just type /home or /spawn  :ohdear:)

I don't know. Punching obsidian while underwater was pretty funny.

Well, tonight was rather... interesting. Exuro, Cykyrios and I all teamed up with Shady and explored a ravine/mineshaft area near his base. We had a server crash, which reset all of our inventories.. Then we went mining again, only to have the three of us die by different circumstances. Exuro and Cykrios died to ninja creepers, and I died to lava. We lost all of our crap, while Shady was the lone survivor.  The three of us died separately after we got separated from Shady. It was like something out of a bad horror movie.

Lesson learned: Don't go mining with Shady. :V

Okay, so I want to sum up what happened in the last 2-3 hours or so:
Strafe, Shady, Exuro and I lost some items due to a server crash that reset our inventories.
We then explored an abandoned mineshaft, which I think was a quite good experience.
We got separated quite a few times, wandered here and there, and all ended up dying (except for Shady IIRC).

So, don't know about the others, but I lost some items, got some nice things inside the mineshaft, and lost them all again.
So I decided to bury myself next to the spawn, where I was blown to pieces by Shady.

Oh well, at least it all was quite funny.

Edit: ninja'd

Anyway, that cannon is purely awesome! Too bad there's a "wall" that prevents people from flying too far away, though.

So I finally put something up in Hakurei City amid a gluttony of building supplies lately.

(http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc379/apr0396/th_2011-10-28_064232.png) (http://s1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc379/apr0396/?action=view&current=2011-10-28_064232.png)

Though I call this the 'Provisional Headquarters of the Bunbunmaru Service', Strafe has a more fitting name - 'firehouse'.

Also it seems that Hakurei Standard Time is 6 hours ahead (or behind?) Stuffman Regional Time (which is set at 3:00). :V

I finally finished my building. The most tedious part was making the entire thing out of stone bricks, I probably wont cook more stone anytime soon. Anyways, here is the end result:

picture 1 (http://i41.tinypic.com/2w7qoef.jpg)

picture 2 (http://i42.tinypic.com/sywljt.jpg)

The miniature glowstone sun was something I decided to add in the last minute. I was originally gonna call this the Mausoleum of the Sun God but it kinda looks like an arena and if I make it an arena it wouldn't be much of a mausoleum now would it. Special thanks to Strafe for donating some stone bricks. Strafe offered to world guard it if I want it to be an arena, but I noticed someone else building a coliseum, so I'll let you guys decide if you want 2 arenas.

Optifine is here. Follow instructions for your OS. (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/249637-181-optifine-hd-d-fps-boost-hd-textures/)

I recommend using the MT version for those of you with 3-core or higher CPUs. Yes, hardware cores. Dual-core users (and those with quad-threaded dual-core CPUs) are better off with Smooth, I think.

Fancy Fog seems to be disabled (maybe it's NVIDIA GPU-only?), but you can enable it manually in the options.txt file and setting ofFogType to 2. No problems doing so on my desktop and its 6870 (AMD).

One more warning - Optifine does face issues with renders at very far (10000+ blocks) distances, and does not support 100000+ blocks.

Post by: Dr.Strafe on October 30, 2011, 09:30:57 PM
Indeed, the Multi-thread version is the best if your computer can handle it. I had to bump down to the Smooth version because of a slight lag every time I would place a block or torch. I am enjoying Optifine, but there are still some bugs that they need to work out before they have my full support. I still have issues with flickering signs/ladders and the snow layer. This is most likely because I am so far away from spawn, but it's something that I will have to work through until another version is released.

Today's Special Report: 'Chennels'

Named after the user that made them notorious, they are, for the uninformed, usually 1x2x1 tunnels dug at low layers (12-14 usually) that tend to go in a linear fashion, intersecting with other Chennels and occasionally sporting pits where mining has occurred.

The major issue with this is that with the return of the cave view, the effects of them on World 1 is extremely obvious. An area between spawn, SunnyPlex, and Castle de PX is especially full of them. There's even one that goes from the rail area to 2.5km to the east - right through Cadmas' territory, for one. What arises from these are property disputes (similar to the Koishiville caves) and the stealing of the 'good stuff' from potential miners.

Instead of Chenneling, I'd put up a set area from surface level and work within those bounds (similar to what my tower has). Walls and signs in caves will more likely just be mined around.

But, if you absolutely have to:

 - Dig away from populated areas. PX's tunnel back on PTM did a good job with that by heading constantly west (then again most were on the floating islands). I'd even say that I would not even use Chennels within +/- X&Z 1000, or even replace the entire underground part in that area with smooth stone (but this is an extreme solution).
 - Always check your location from the top-down perspective using MC maps, livefeed, or a minimap mod. It's hard to know where you are down there, even with coordinates - and it's best that property disputes over break-ins not happen. The graphical display helps with reducing the occurrence.
 - When digging them, I'd advise digging a wider and taller area rather than longer (similar to what Dora did with his city, in a way).
 - Put up something on the surface level so that others know you have camp there. I'd cover the entire bounds if possible.
 - Don't :V-mine (use xray pack).

That's the end of this half-asleep message.

More screenshots coming in later of the Pumpkin of Faith, an 'Occupy EP Tower; we are the 99%' movement, and a few other things.

Why did you quadruple-post? One rage post was enough.

This is the second time you have put all sorts of things in a donation chest for temporary storage and left it there after leaving server, benefiting those who put up the chests. I cannot but say that the blame's entirely on you this time around.

Just because no one uses donations most of the time doesn't mean that they don't use them at all, you know. See Cadrin's and Artemis' goods once they were banned - they were taken within a matter of a day once they were moved there since it was loaded with valuables.

Whatever the outcome of this may be, I will watch at the very least.

EDIT: Ah crap, it's already started! D:
[attach=1]

More proof (yeah, we can use /lb lookup but the parameters make it tricky for most):
[attach=2]

Further LB analysis showed that all 69 TNT blocks were within ~20m of that crater.

OK, the griefing wasn't as bad as I thought, though it isn't that good either (there goes some donation chests). But the above rage-posting is what I am more at odds with...may I suggest taking a break from playing on the server to calm things down?

...that being said, your turn.

Well it's true that for them to be effective donation chests, everyone should be able to put stuff in them but only the person who put the chest here could take that stuff from the chest...
you should not use donation chests to hold valuable items for more than five seconds. If you need to do so get your own chests or put them at your home.

Not this crap again. PX, I thought that you wouldn't do this again after the last time. Granted, I've used the donation chests as a quick, temporary storage for the TNT cannon nonsense. However, I made sure to retrieve my stuff afterward, specifically because I didn't want people to raid that chest. If you had the resources to make a bunch of TNT, as well as "enough logs to build a ship", then I think you could have easily built a chest of your own and protected it from any thieves. Sorry, man. This one is on you again. TNT bombing the place as revenge is only going to backfire on you. Now:

Can we rename them from Donation to "Put your stuff here to get taken by everyone but the person who put up the chest"?
Yes, this is a problem. Not many people donate what is asked for (or even anything useful). Some people use the chests as garbage dumpsters. Others sift through the chests and take what they like. (even you have done so, PX.) Hell, some people flood the chests full of gravel and arrange them into swastika patterns. :V  The point is, Poverty Row has failed to serve its purpose a long time ago. It went from 1-2 people asking for some simple supplies to everyone begging with their hands out. That's why I lampooned it with my own chest: "Strafe is too lazy to play the game. Give him stuff."

EDIT- Let me add this as a side note. I'm getting pretty fucking tired of repairing the landscape from TNT damage. Especially around the spawn area. Knock it off or we will disable TNT all together. Thank you.

How about not considering them as donation chests at all, but instead considering the row as just more community chests?

The point is, Poverty Row has failed to serve its purpose a long time ago. It went from 1-2 people asking for some simple supplies to everyone begging with their hands out.
It's a joke area, really. :V
But it's further proof that we have a good number of the population that's not willing to work for their items to create them. If anything I'd dismantle Poverty Row for now and decide what to do later. I am in favour of a DDR-style community base, but it's your discretion.

If any donation projects worked even decently well it'd be Sparda's wall and SunnyTree, but most of the others flopped miserably.

And in the meantime my store works very effectively for these kinds of things and has hit record profits.

So here's a new experiment!

Here's a new structure to the SE part of Hakurei City. I have put it up but have no plans to use it. New area, albeit barebones.

[attach=6]

Starting price is 1 Iron Ignot. This will end at 8:00pm GMT-5 on 11 Nov (Friday).

that would be about 10 rooms i know what to build in. so i wanted to ask if you have any ideas what i can build in the other 23 rooms that are left.

EDIT: As a notice for those of you that have it: Optifine has updated to version D2. (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/249637-181-optifine-hd-d2-fps-boost-hd-textures/) Apparently they said that it just fixes zoom and clear water in SMP, so apparently they had problems?
Also, the Optifine for Antialiasing and Anisotropic Filtering has also come to 1.8.1 (actually been there for a little while now) and is also at D2. It's found on the same page as well.
And no, the vanishing blocks at a long distance haven't been resolved yet. Sorry Strafe. You get spaz blocks for a little longer. :derp:

Go get the bones and the saplings from the supply depot beneath what used to be my lighthouse, if they are still there. I used to have the tree farm, too. So if it is still here, well it is public domain because I say so. Plant the saplings on dirt tiles. Turn the bones to bone meal, then spam. Use PX' mob grinder to get bones if it still exists. If not, ask Strafe or Stuffman for a 256x256(?) frozen lake and make your own. Because it is nice to have.
Save the forests! It is long to set up, but can give you a lot of lumber quickly.

Raymoo had built us a very nice tree farm back on PTM and it is at the top of the community farm tower. It yields 5+ stacks of wood at a full harvest. The only downside is that it doesn't drop as many saplings, due to the trees being so close together. The farm is handy when you need lots of logs right now, but I normally just stick to old-fashioned tree chopping. So, really there isn't any need for a grand-scale tree farming operations. Wood isn't that hard to come by.. :V

Post by: DX7.EP on November 08, 2011, 12:38:03 PM
Indeed it isn't. It's just that many of us tend to use massive amounts of it for charcoal and wooden structures. :V

Speaking of mega-farms, rumours of construction on a farm of unprecedented serious affair scale and size have arisen. While there is no cause for alarm for most of us (yet), I have notified Strafe via mail to keep on the lookout, for one can imagine the ungodly amounts of lag it can induce on activation.

Ehh... I sincerely doubt that a farm of any kind would generate lag comparable to the sand duper or PX's grinder. A cactus farm might but it depends on the setup. Then again, for the cactus to grow, the area must be loaded into memory.

Sounds like a non-issue to me.

You want lag? Try making a mob grinder powered by 16+ mob spawners. >:D

Status on re-innovating the grinder: Great
First, I have added light sources on top so I am able to stop spawns inside at will
Next, there is no more arrow dodging. All drops go to an individual spot near the center of the frame
Lastly, it is now a combination of falling deaths and drowning deaths.

All that's left to do is to redo the canals so they're a lot more efficient

I found quite a few neat CraftBukkit plugins that could work on our server (also they don't require client-side modding). However with 1.0 being so close I'd suggest considering these when we update the server in proper (including the finishing of schematic work).

A practical addition: NoLagg (http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/fix-admn-nolagg-v1-45-prevent-common-lag-causes-on-your-server-1337.36986/) (note: the NoLaggChunks add-on requires Spout)

As I expected. Though I'd put on NoLagg anyway to reduce network load, which I'm sure was one of Stuffman's considerations.
Correction on NoLagg - only the NoLaggChunks addon requires Spout. The rest of that Bukkit mod does not need that.
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server ( 1.8 - NEW WORLD(S) )
Post by: Stuffman on November 13, 2011, 05:07:02 PM
We actually do have Spout, it's pretty much integrated with Bukkit nowadays. I have no idea how it works though.

NoLagg is intriguing but it makes me nervous to use something that has so much power over server priorities. I'll look into it.
VoxelAir is the flying mod we would use if I wanted to put one in. I'd rather wait and see if a hunger flight mod gets made, though.
Shotgun is kinda derp :V
TerrainControl...well basically we already know what PTM is like. If we go with the two-world plan then it might be interesting to have one world be a bit more dramatic than the other (but not nearly to the extent of our first PTM world).
Seasons would be neat if Minecraft actually had the stuff to support it (like actually brown trees, temporary flowers growth in spring, snow everywhere during winter) but from the looks of that video it doesn't change a whole lot.
Anti-XRay I would consider but it clearly causes a large performance hit, which punishes everyone, not just XRay users, so that's a no.

Oh, didn't know that. This will start things out. (http://wiki.getspout.org/Main_Page)

I am a bit ambivalent about using Bukkit mods that require SpoutCraft. While it's certainly easier than having every client mod his/her minecraft.jar, it also means that they'll have to get the SpoutCraft client instead. Fortunately it's not too hard to do. (http://wiki.getspout.org/Spoutcraft)

Oh you. :V I'll start saving schematics as we get closer to the transition time. Some things will be handled earlier than that, whenever I get around to stuff, I still have a good amount of preparation to do on my own structures, as well as the community stuff.

Result of schematic save: YOUR STUFF HAS MAGICALLY DISAPPEARED! BV
Actually, I can do stuff like that. If I really wanted to be an ass, I could just empty all of their chests before saving the schematic as well as hit that player with a /clearinventory. >:D  I jest.

Come to think of it. I'm not sure if I can guarantee that people's on-hand inventories will be kept throughout the transition. Chances are, I will have to reset everybody's position to the new spawn coordinates. Hard way: manipulate everybody's files individually like I did in the transition from PTM. Easy way: delete everybody's files and they all start fresh in the new world. Granted, the latter won't come to pass, but there is always the possibility that things could get lost in the transition.

In short, go ahead and put all of your important stuff into chests to be saved with your schematic. As far as your inventory goes, take only what you need to survive. (food, sword, pick, armor, etc.) The same warning applies like when battling in the Arena: Don't take anything you are not willing to lose.

In other news: Notch, what possessed you to change the sound effects? My doors and chests need their hinges oiled badly, and my bow sounds like a goddamn Nerf gun. :V

Also mark off those areas with peculiar blocks on opposite X-Z (and Y if possible) corners. Coloured wool is a good example.
And this doesn't need to be done within the Hakurei City walls, as that will be saved as a giant schematic anyway.

(as well as some other info that will help me more accurately place them in the new world) Since this is the third time of doing this, I pretty much have everything down to a science. Everything should go smoothly, barring any catastrophe...

As I stated before, (as well as on signs at spawn) I need to know if there are any underground projects that you guys wish to export. I made my list by using the Livefeed map to find them all. Anything below ground isn't on it, unless I already knew of its existence. Dorakyura's vast underground facility is the best example of this. It really helps if you actually call me over to the site, so I can jot down the coordinates.

As it stands right now: the list is showing 88 miles per hour schematics planned for the transition. Same as last time, the final backup will be made just before we begin the transition. I will be making all of the schematics based upon that backup. If anyone has already prepared their locations for me to save before this time, it would be greatly appreciated. In the mean time, I will be saving the sprites and other "artistic" projects that don't have chests or anything that might change.

Again as a reminder, please remove any Note Blocks that you have from all of your structures during this time. [Long-winded explanation for this] (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,10734.msg738407.html#msg738407) Since people have postponed their music projects, I doubt that this will be an issue. However, there might be one or two Noteblocks that are lurking about, forgotten by their owner.

Well I got everything save my hotel and the skeleton grinder marked up with blue wool and signs.

Could just save the grinder part of it and leave all the underground business out of it.
And I'm sure you've done my hotel enough times to know how things are down there.

The other things to take down if you want to save them are paintings, since they don't port over. Though it's not like it's really hard to make them anyway...

So it looks like the only thing of mine you'll have to do is save Ikubi Akius, since my house will be saved when the village is saved.

I'll give a rundown.

 - Tower (obviously :V. But I plan to dig a few more parts out before I can call it ready)
 - LOLSQUID Town (area is marked - Y56 to Y83. It is prepared and ready, I believe)
 - *redacted*

Note that I will also be detorching several major areas (notably a few tunnels, the area near the spawn end of the railway, and the cleared forest to the west of spawn) over the next few days. I recommend doing the same as the time comes.

I have also taken the liberty of removing the note blocks in SunnyMart and put them inside one of the chests there. The other major noteblock use I know of is in Cykyrios' Companion Cube (the Still Alive jingle that plays when opening the main door).

so since the transfer to the new world comes closer i want to know if people that builded near to hakurei city (the buildings outside the wall) also want their buildings near to hakurei in the new world
(sunny, PX, bsod, molten, ssky, crow,........ )
and it would be great when the owners of buildings in hakurei could remove their music blocks

Strafe: I think I might want to save the clock tower and the rest of Castlevania as two separate pieces, I'm not sure I like its current placement. I'll be grabbing it from sea level up (I've made sure not to work on anything underground).

Other than that I only need the small box building on the island north of Castlevania. It has all my stuff (and is conveniently shaped to be placed anywhere)!

Indeed I have.  ;) The hotel and the grinder don't really need to be marked with the wool. I'll go ahead and save them if they're ready for export.

The other things to take down if you want to save them are paintings, since they don't port over. Though it's not like it's really hard to make them anyway...
Well, you can always remove the paintings and store them with your belongings so you don't lose them. I mean, wool and sticks are so rare these days.. :V

The other major noteblock use I know of is in Cykyrios' Companion Cube (the Still Alive jingle that plays when opening the main door).
Noted. I'll investigate the site. I'll remove the Noteblocks myself if Cykyrios doesn't get around to it in time.

I got the LOLSQUID Town schematic area ready - see my last post for layer information. The areas wanted are torched and marked on opposite X-Y-Z corners.

PX's palanquin ship has been taken down for now, on another note.

BTW, Sparda has asked me and maybe some others about having the spawn be in Hakurei City on the new world. While I am a bit supportive of this, I did warn him that he may lose his current control over the city if this is done.

I'll remove them tomorrow (don't have much time since then), if it hasn't been done yet.

I marked my two buildings that I'd like to transfer with orange wool, signs and coordinates.
One is the jungle gym-like tower north of the spawn in world 1, and the other is my unfinished house in world 2, west of the town.
Can I pick a place to put them once the new world is made? They'd both be meaningless if they're not placed in specific locations.
The tower's coordinates are X24 to X44, Y63 to Y101, and Z19 to Z39.
My house's are X130 to X155, Y67 to Y81, Z-60 to Z-39.

Granted, your underground facility will be one of the more difficult schematics. This time, I'd like to try my hand at saving it inside the game instead of with an external program. This way, placing it will be a lot easier. The two of us will need to coordinate sometime so that I can see how much of it you would like to save. If I remember correctly, you said that you wanted less of the region saved?

Pre-update schematic progress: 30 saved and ready for the new world. I'm still focusing on structures that aren't being worked on, or anything that doesn't have chests. If anyone has any other sites ready for export, let me know! I'll tidy up the loose ends in a couple of weeks. Feel free to keep on playin'.

Ok, this is getting really, really annoying. Who keeps opening up the spot under our houses in the village (area connected to my, Sunny's, and Jimmy's, houses) to reveal a spot I dug out that is EMPTY! I had signs over that spot too asking why, which was on stone bricks (no idea why) and it was left it open! Seriously, WHO KEEPS DOING THAT?! I'm getting very annoyed now. (too bad we still don't have access to log block yet)
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server ( 1.8 - NEW WORLD(S) )
Post by: Dr.Strafe on November 17, 2011, 11:43:40 PM
That one is my fault. I was clearing out that underground spot for Jimmy since he's been gone and will likely still be gone by the time of the transfer. I saw the "masked" spot you're talking about, but saw nothing of importance behind that barrier.. So, I didn't replace the barrier after investigating. My bad. So, what exactly is the purpose of that, then?
Title: Re: [Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server ( 1.8 - NEW WORLD(S) )
Post by: Agent of the BSoD on November 17, 2011, 11:49:07 PM
Oh, I see. I just got annoyed because it kept happening time and time again. (one instance was dusty removing the entrance)
What was there was my initial test of the magical furnace, but I removed it because it kept resetting. So I sealed it up. People kept opening it back up and doing nothing else, which I don't understand. That's all.

Speaking of which, I already removed the magical furnace found near spawn. Mostly because I prefer to keep the resources used, and it contained music blocks. I could easily make another one once the full MC server is up.

EDIT: And I should set up the 1.8.1 backups again, like how I did for 1.7.3. That way, incase people update and don't have a 1.8.1 jar, they can just grab it. I'll set those up soon with and without all the optifine patches.

When you go into the nether you should only bring the bare necessities (stone tools, torches, food, dirt and cobble for bridging). It's very easy to stumble off a cliff in the darkness and lose everything when you fall into a pit of lava.

Anyway, let's see how long it takes for 1.0 Bukkit to get released. Apparently the dev team is at minecon and they were saying they were gonna be working on it right off the bat.

At last, the Official Release has arrived. Time to step up my schematic work.. We'll be starting a completely new set of worlds: One main world, the Nether, the End, and most likely a custom world to be determined later. It seems that we'll be updating as soon as the 1.0 Bukkit is released? So, now is the time to get to make preparations to all of your properties.

Please be sure to let me know if you have begun any new projects, or have any lurking underground. I cannot save them if I do not know about them.

Also, everyone that has been de-torching their areas, please don't remove every single one. We don't want mobs destroying things I have not yet saved. Maybe cut down on some of the lighting, but don't eliminate it entirely.

About the Nether bridge: I thought that making it that wide was enough of a protection from people walking off of its sides. Were you being chased by a hostile mob at the time? Besides, we'll get a new Nether before long.

On creeper nerfing: Doesn't seem that you'll get your way, Exuro. At least armor will be stronger... but you'll still have your horrible luck with ninja mobs.

On food: There is a tower to the south of the spawn area that houses the community farms. There, you can score a fairly large amount of wheat to make your own bread. Just be sure to reseed the fields whenever you are done collecting.

No I was not being chased by a mob at the time. The thing is, I use Optifine because I lag quite a lot normally, and when you use Optifine, you can press Ctrl to have what I like to call "Movie mode". I was using that at the time and because it zooms in a lot, I didn't know I was near the edge and so I fell.

I will be updating this list as I continue my work. If you have anything else that is ready, then tell me. Also, let me know if I have missed anything, or if you want to remove something from the list.

Piney also has a 'Yuukarin's Carnivore Caf?' near X-241, Z93 of W2. Satori seems to have a caf? of her own under the big tree. Gamecubic has a small place south of spawn, while Koishi has one to the north. However those two have not been active lately, it seems.

Yeah, I'd hold off on Hakurei City for now. There's, like, houses in there and I'm still doing stuff in mine. (namely, adding chests for sand dupering)

And :getdown:, you didn't have to save the connect4. I was just bored and stuck it there while we're preparing for 1.0. Though importing it would be faster than rebuilding it, I guess. Maybe some of us will actually use it?

Huh. I wasn't aware of an underground home. I was referring to the shelter on the surface that was near the Obsidian Farm. It had wolves in a fenced yard.

Yeah, I'd hold off on Hakurei City for now. There's, like, houses in there and I'm still doing stuff in mine. (namely, adding chests for sand dupering)
Yeah, I told Sparda that the City will most likely be one of the last things I export since so many people live there. Again, I focused on structures that did not have chests, structures that were complete or abandoned, and structures owned by people that have been absent for a long time.  But now we're getting to the point where I need to export current projects..

If it's not too much trouble, can Houraiville and Hourai sprite be saved as two separate things?
Noted. Added to the list.  Were you going to deconstruct your old home that's waaaaay out to the west?

Well, there's the Palanquin Ship that I'm working on right now....
Added.

You forgot about my old PTM PVP arena. :V

Piney also has a 'Yuukarin's Carnivore Caf?' near X-241, Z93 of W2. Satori seems to have a caf? of her own under the big tree. Gamecubic has a small place south of spawn, while Koishi has one to the north. However those two have not been active lately, it seems.
I wasn't aware of Piney's Cafe, but she said to scrap it anyway. Satori and Koishi's places are already on the list and saved as well. Gamecubic's place will likely not be saved because I couldn't find anything of importance there. I'll add the PTM arena to the list, and I'll go save it later.

Note: Since the Official Release is out, everyone should be taking the time to get their structures ready for export. I want to complete most, if not all of this list by the time we are ready to update. I will continue to hold off on current projects, but I cannot wait forever. I will be coming around to save such structures before long.

So, here is the complete list of backups for the jar file of 1.8.1 for your convenience.
This also includes the jar file modified with all of the available versions of Optifine at it's latest version.

1.8.1 Original (http://www.mediafire.com/?754abdrd58546hr)
This still has the META-INF folder inside, so make sure you remove that if you need (or want) to mod this.

OptiFine 1.8.1_HD_D2 (http://www.mediafire.com/?nm9isr65sj2co0i)
This is the Classic version of Optifine.

OptiFine 1.8.1_HD_S_D2 (http://www.mediafire.com/?b60v5brhapylt35)
This is the Smooth version of Optifine.

OptiFine 1.8.1_HD_MT_D2 (http://www.mediafire.com/?8bsyvewjvhhtvth)
This is the MultiThreaded version of Optifine.

OptiFine 1.8.1_HD_AA_D2 (http://www.mediafire.com/?1xir5n90h0xh08p)
This is the Antialiasing and Anisotropic Filtering version of Optifine.

And if you want it for whatever reason or to check out stuff, here is the link to the Optifine forum.

I had planned on making a Portal to The End at the new spawn area. Ultimately, I decided against it because it would kill any reason to go searching for strongholds. I'll build a Nether Portal at spawn, but you're on your own on the portal to The End. :V

Understood. The offer still stands if you change your mind.

So, are we gonna have a going away party by blowing up everything right before we move to the new world?
I'd prefer that we don't do that. The Brohoster Strafeageddon got old quickly, and I don't really feel like watching over another session. I'd like for this transition to happen as quickly as possible. I want to play the full version at last! I'm sure you all do too.

Also, there comes a time when one has obtained enough sand. That time is now. I have destroyed both sand dupers. (PX, your supplies are in one of your chests) The amount of sand that was being hoarded was beyond ridiculous... 8-9 large chests? Really? Anyway, I could do without the lag while I'm flying about, saving the schematics.

I'm down for that after building a Nether portal extremely quickly so that I can scout a nice far-off place without having to generate all the chunks inbetween.

OK, I got myself ready, inventory prepped, etc. My tower is ready for schematic save!

I'll probably head back come 1.0, and do what I've stated earlier.

Also, parts of the western forest/hills area have been detorched. Too lazy and tired to do the rest of them....

You can count on the Squidtown being copied over an existing NPC village on the 1.0 world, on another note. Gotta have those villagers spawn and drown! :getdown:

I disassembled my underground rail, so if someone need 8 stacks of rails in the new world, you are welcome  :V
Keep them for your own things, I say.

Also, considering a significant percentage of the population (or at least the regularly-playing population) uses Optifine, one idea may be to hold off even further until it gets a 1.0 version. The Optifine devs are still waiting on MCP to update, much like others are for Bukkit....

Lastly, any plans on a Nether Brick custom recipe? Considering we already nerfed strongholds by allowing cracked and mossy stone brick to be craftable, I think that doing the same for Nether fortresses would be inconsequential.
(also, cheapen the sponge recipe and/or increase the output, that'd be nice seeing how overkill large 1.0 oceans are :V)

Just Nether Brick. Mossy Nether Brick does not exist in a vanilla installation, and we don't want to force everyone to mod just to play on the server.

Yup, Nether Brick is basically just cosmetic so I don't have a problem with crafting it, but doing so will probably require more effort than simply squashing a bunch of Netherrack together (since regular brick takes some work to make too). I'll think about what kind of recipe it'll need. Maybe you'll just need to cook Netherrack in a furnace to make it.

I don't plan to make sponge cheaper. Sponge is intended to be a temporary measure to assist in construction underwater, not a permanent fixture to create huge air pockets in the ocean. You should work to make your structures watertight and then move your sponge to the next area.

No, the update hasn't begun yet. We need for some of our vital plugins to be compatible with 1.0 first. I did read that there is a "pre-release" of Bukkit for 1.0, so that should mean we'll get our real release soon. :3 I'm hoping that we can have everything up and ready by the weekend.

Hey Strafe. I've been trying to get on this week but I never met you in game. I am just wondering if you could make a scheme of the unfinished Alice's house in the middle of the forest (352,64,78)? I didnt really work much on this server so my other houses remained relatively unchanged. I think I can just port the scheme from last world in without loosing too much. I got some more resources but I can just carry that in my inventory when the update comes. Speaking of which, when are we updating?

Ah, thanks for the advice but which version of optfine should I get when it get's updated to the 1.0.0 version?
Depends on your computer. If your computer has multiple cores, then the MultiThreaded one would be good for you. If not, try smooth, which is a step above classic. (if none work, classic it is :V) We're still waiting for the 1.0 Optifine though, and they're waiting on MCP to update.

Speaking of which, when are we updating?
Read the previous post.

Yeah, it's been a while since I've seen you running about the server. I saved all three of your structures a few days ago. However, if you still want to build on Alice's house or gather materials for it, I can save it again at the very end. That way, you don't have to lug all that crap around and struggle to survive before I can get to your import.

I wish I had a concrete date for you fellas as far as the update is concerned. We're just waiting impatiently for the plugins to update and then we're good to go. Of course, we'll inform everyone once we're doing the update, seeing that we're going to shut it down (as well as disallow joining) whenever Stuffman works his magic.

*looks at post counter* Wow. Another thread nearly maxed out. I guess we'll need to start another one about that time. :V

I'm holding out for the server update before I update my client. After all of this waiting, what's a few more days? :V  Besides, I haven't even touched my single player maps ever since I began playing online. If anything, I'll make a new SSP map that's an offline collection of the things I've built online.

EDIT- EP's Tower and Hourai's Town have both been saved. I have finished marking the bounding fields to the remaining structures on the list. This includes:
-Hakurei Town
-Stuffman's Castlevania
-Stuffman's Storage
-PX's Grinder --SAVED--
-PX's Palanquin Ship  --SAVED--
-Piney's Pineapple (lots more underground area than I had thought!)
-Cadmas' Hospital
-Cadmas' Storage
-JOB's Home at spawn
-Puremrz's World2 Home
-Raymoo's Alice Home (already saved, but marked in case he modifies anything..)

If any of these people still wish to work on their structures, please be sure not to disturb the Cyan wool. This way, I can quickly save the structures and we can get to updating the server faster!

What started as testing of what a piston can push led to roller coaster madness! After I got tired of spinning Agent around in a loop, I got a pig, a creeper, and a GIANT to take the ride as well. Sadly, the skeleton didn't make the cut, something was causing him to get stuck.

The important part of the contraption is the fact that the center rail is being manipulated by a piston. With the setup, it slopes in different directions with each state.

But yeah, just killing time here. :V  Agent will be posting a video of the Giant's ride soon..

It's an interesting prospect but no I don't think it's possible. A quick search doesn't show any mods that can do it, at least.

I'm not quite sure how it would work; the game probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference between legit blocks and ones you got in creative, so it would need to delete your inventory before moving between them, or something like that. Would probably lead to some rage moments :V

Indeed you have none. That's life, I guess.
That tower is/was pretty bland anyway. Just all cobble and glass. But since EP disliked it, he and I must have different tastes in architecture.
Yeah, I asked because of Strafe saying in an announcement that I am not banned outright but you two have to talk things over. I sort of stopped reading after that point as I actually took a break from MC. Thanks for clearing that up. So long guys.

Wait. One more thing:
Strafe wiped it out inadvertently when he did a rollback of the Peace sign.

I had a hard time believing this. Because there must have been at least a couple days between the construction of the shrine coming to a stop because of lack of materials and me randomly deciding that it's vandalism time. It must have caused more damage than my operation itself. I don't even think there were any more "incidents" as Doc put it, not by me anyway. (And Tom apparently just stole and hax0r'd items in his inventory, nothing particularly damaging to others' property.) Heck, I could have even repaired the damage to the tower if you told me to. Oh well, at least the sunflower field got restored in result of that roll-back, I reckon. Yeah, adding the Wrath of Yuuka button was just dumb. It did not even belong to me but I TNT'd it all up...

Rollbacks affect anything within a timeframe/area/etc. given by the user when the command is sent. Strafe must've made it a global rollback of your things by a few days.

We did discuss it, and it ended up siding against you. That's just how it is. I gave you your extra chance after the sunflower field TNT incident, but you made me regret that just days later. To be clear, I didn't ban you; I removed you from the whitelist. Stuffman summed up my thoughts with "I have no reason to think you won't grief again as soon as you get bored." What's done is done.

The Peace Sign was the first instance in which I used the rollback commands. I didn't really feel like replacing the blocks manually. I ended up doing the command twice: The first one wasn't enough of a rollback, the second one was too much of one. We only realized that your Moon Temple was wiped a couple of days later. Also, the rollback pertains to blocks that have been placed, not blocks that have been destroyed. I constructed a "memorial" at the site of the TNT blast zone prior to the rollback. After the rollback, the memorial remained, yet the sunflowers were still gone.

Videos are up!
Awesome. Now everyone can watch me fail at sending the giant into the lava pool. Damn South/West rule. >:(

Question: What with creative mode and shit, is it possible to have a creative world simultaneous to the SMP one?

this is probably a stupid question
Oh no, it's not a stupid question; it's more of a game-breaking one. :V Back in DDR's server we had a griefer that was given a special [Builder] rank which allowed him to summon any item in the game that he wanted. He ended up supplying all of the other griefers with their tools and stuff whenever they were "colonizing" Sphere world. (long story..) Anyway, I think that by allowing Creative mode in one of the worlds (if it was possible), that would open up the same opportunity for item abuse. No, not griefing.. but just the ability to create or destroy anything. From my experience, Creative Mode is quite dangerous if you don't pay attention to what you are doing. :V

Huh. Well, we're almost out of replies on this thread. I wonder.... Should I take the server down once this thread gets auto-locked? >:D

That's why I asked, I wondered if there was any way(a mod, perhaps, but Stuff cleared that up) to block inventory from going from one world to the other and back. This way people could go nuts in creative mode ( 1. Go to Creative world 2. Fill inventory with diamond blocks 3. ?????? 4. Profit :V ) without being able to bring anything back to Survival world. Doesn't seem possible though

Post by: Dr.Strafe on November 25, 2011, 06:00:05 AM
I think world-specific player inventories is possible if we sift through the plugin options. I think I saw something along those lines. The tricky part would be having the one world be the only one that grants Creative powers. Perhaps it could be a Permissions thing in conjunction with MultiVerse, but it sounds like a real pain to set up.

Anyway, wouldn't Creative Mode kill people's sense of accomplishment and desire to build? (in time, that is)

Ok. I'm done conversing in this thread. My next post (if I get one :V) will be about the server shutting down for the update.

Whoa. You are wrong here. (And anyway, you can hack inventories in multiplayer?)
The records were farmed using Kiershar's method (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LW0Vt4eO3AM) demonstrated in this video, back in the Koishiville world. It's a simple extension to a mob grinder. (I had one back then, it wasn't very efficient, though.)
As for the minecarts, I wanted to make a minecart-based cargo hold one day instead of the simple warehouse I ultimately opted for. But then I learned that I can't get the powered rails to push rows of 8 minecarts at once, so I scrapped the design and was left with heaps of surplus minecarts I had no idea what to do with.
(I thought you said that it was Tom who was hax0ring stuff into his inventory, not me...)
I can confess that I did steal something too, though: stole Sunny's lapis and then gave her back 9x the amount stolen (talked it over with her but I don't think she cared) and took three diamonds from someone's chest, then returned them later that day. I don't think he/she noticed. Mostly did it because everyone was away while I was online and I could not care to wait, so...

We did discuss it, and it ended up siding against you. That's just how it is. I gave you your extra chance after the sunflower field TNT incident, but you made me regret that just days later. To be clear, I didn't ban you; I removed you from the whitelist. Stuffman summed up my thoughts with "I have no reason to think you won't grief again as soon as you get bored." What's done is done.
(Ah, removing from whitelist and banning is the same to me, it probably isn't in Minecraft.)
I actually learned that you ought to ask people first before touching their blocks, so while I do not regret my griefing much (except for allowing others to blow up Dora's sunflower field, though it was minor damage, but largely irreparable regardless, and I never had an idea how I would have been able to repair the possible damage, which was retarded on a whole new level) and would certainly like to work on other people's constructions, these days I would ask people if I can "enhance" their stuff a little, but I've been thinking and figured that maybe it's better if I stay away from the server after all anyway, lest the people get a bad example and start doing outrageous shit thinking they can get away with it.

SO HEY

Apparently Prohoster decided to move our server to new hardware! This is all fine and dandy but I need to get everything set up because the transition was hardly seamless.

The old server is still there for now but I need to make backups and stuff. The server is down until further notice. I'll let you know when you can get back in at the new address.

UPDATE:
Okay actually it looks like everything is in one piece, it's just that they restarted MCMyAdmin when they moved the server and I had to turn it off again for our whitelist to work.

The new server IP is: 64.31.14.242 - update your links!

Just to clarify, because I'm expecting the confusion: We have not updated to 1.0. This was just a hardware move.

Post #1000 is reserved for me or Strafe announcing the server going down for the 1.0 update, so if you encounter any problems please PM me :V

IT IS TIME.

No, Bukkit hasn't updated to a final release yet, but Stuffman and I are tired of waiting on them. As per his suggestion, we will be updating the server using the latest dev build of CraftBukkit. Since it is not a final release, everyone should expect some issues and possible instability. That's just something we're going to have to deal with. It's either that, or continue waiting..

Anyway, since the server has sat unoccupied for several days now, I'm going to finish up the schematic work and then hand everything over to Stuffman to do his thing. We will launch a new thread once we're ready, so please wait until then to log back in. Hopefully everything works out and we can all have fun with our server again!

Mods and/or Janitors: Please go ahead and lock this thread.
