[Minecraft] MotK Minecraft Server (PREPARE FOR WORLD MOVE!)

[Stuffman]

LOOK AT THIS BULLSHIT



THIS IS GOING TO BE SO MUCH FUN

Server will probably be opened tomorrow, still waiting on an SQL database for logblock, also need to give Strafe some time to insert whatever.

HELL YES IT'LL BE A LOT OF FUN! (and made even better by the dithering :V)

Eagerly anticipating server's opening, watching warmly as we all do ~

Also if possible regenerate the map with a slightly new seed so we don't all try to rush for that picture.

Best. Map. Ever.

Wait, it's opening tomorrow? I thought that we were going to wait till 1.8!

[DX7.EP]

Yeah, good luck even trying to remake Koishiville and/or Rukinville here!

Best. Map. Ever.

AGREED.

Spoiler:

for now...we'll have to expand there and see other parts of terrain

Wait, it's opening tomorrow? I thought that we were going to wait till 1.8!

What if 1.8 releases tomorrow? :smokedcheese:

I was thinking more on the massive ammount of creeperzombieskeletons that will spawn in there.

[Agent of the BSoD]

Then we'll have to wait for PTM to update. :colonveeplusalpha:
Problem?

[DX7.EP]

It'll still be 10x easier than Sphere world (when DDR had MultiVerse, we had this installed, and seeing 10+ creepers and quite a few other mobs sitting outside your home on these spheres was a normal occurrence).

Then we'll have to wait for PTM to update. :colonveeplusalpha:
Problem?

That was a rhetorical question, so it was odd to see an answer....

[HakureiSM]

I didn't get to see Sphere World because when I arrived shit was already going down and you had locked away the kids there


But the seed forum page Cadrin linked has a screenshot with a fuckton of mobs in one of them shadowed areas

Well, even then I'm sure you heard their cries in MC chat (eg. "THIS IS TOO HARD, THEEP GET US FUCKING OBSIDIAN", "GET US OUT ALREADY THERE'S 20 CREEPERS OUTSIDE"). It's a testament to how crazy living there is. On the flip side it makes for great mob grinding areas.

But the seed forum page Cadrin linked has a screenshot with a fuckton of mobs in one of them shadowed areas

Yeah, that seed has a lot of them, and this is without PTM, so you have a rough idea of what to expect in the dark parts. Just stay the hell away from them until you're ready.

[HakureiSM]

Just stay the hell away from them until you're ready.

No shit.

[Stuffman]

See at first I was against the idea of a map like this because I figured it would be too hard to build shit on it, but then I realized that rather than building on it we'll be building into it. Sweet-ass bridges and tunnels and aqueducts and ladder towers everywhere linking stuff together.

Those huge floating islands produce enormous fields of pitch-black darkness that hordes of monsters pour out of. And take a wrong step, and you'll be plunging from the cloud layer to sea level. We'll be dying SO MUCH. It'll be GREAT.

If 1.8 releases, well...we'll decide what to do when we see what it does to PTM worlds, I guess

Now that's the way to think around this! Cue the return of the overpass system mixing with the underground.

Yep, this'll be a hell of a lot of fun indeed. And before we know it this will be our server anthem. Or this.

[HakureiSM]

overpass system

No.

Proper bridges, ladders and towers this time please. A cobble overpass grid is just plain ugly

[PX]

Hey, this makes monster grinding easier! No need to build a specific zone for spawning, just have a water canal draw them out of the darkness :V

[DX7.EP]

Of course, of course! I wasn't trying to make the overpass grid system, since it wouldn't fit the terrain very well anyway. Proper bridges, ladders, towers, and tunnels it is.

[Ace the Fighter]

sooo Tomorow?!   :getdown:

[Bio]

I cant be bothered to read 2 pages of posts, update me someone?

[HakureiSM]

New server's up, though not open because Strafe and Stuffs are setting stuff up.

It's using PTM mod combined with that massive negative number seed Cadrin posted a bit back.

It's probably opening up tomorrow.

[Bio]

Oh.
I also see that everyone's suddenly gone masochistic. Cool.

[Nicole Artist]

I love the thought of it being open tomorrow. Sence, well, tomorrow im getting a new tooth (the current is fake that I broke yeeeears ago. Poll. Ran. didnt see it) which Im sure will be super fun.
So, at least I might have something to look forward to tomorrow.

Plus, DDR's back in as a regular player and stated that he still has backups from the old server, which may have been sent to Strafe. In that case we may also be able to shoehorn parts of Rukinville, EPFort, Stuffman's towers, and many sprites, among other things, as well. However, the old worlds won't be directly accessible since we won't put in Multiverse just yet to load up the old places.

It seems as if most of our old work from both servers can be salvaged but not in 100% carbon-copy fashion.

Oh.

...well said!

[EternitySky]

*hopes there a backup of RukinRave in that*...

It'd make making Club Rose a lot easier ..... *expands + rewrites rave to rose on water curtain*

[Dr.Strafe]

Taking a look around the new world, all I can say at the moment is HOLY SHIT! I had my doubts and reservations about the whole PTM issue, but now that I have seen it in person.... This is going to ROCK.

Ok. So at the moment, I don't have access to the server files. I cannot upload any schematics from the old world.

Spoiler:

Even if I had them... I still need to get that done :V

So, here's what I'm going to do: I'm going to redesign the spawn area in the new world, and then give the "green light" to Stuffman. He can open the server up to everyone whenever he finishes up his side of things. Since this world generated in a fashion that I wasn't expecting at all, I'd like to have you guys take a look around before deciding if you want me to import anything from the previous world. You guys might decide to start fresh after all. :3

Oh, busy busy busy~

[Bio]

skytown, go.

and moonside.

[HakureiSM]

I got a feeling that my old tower would look rad in the new world

[Agent of the BSoD]

I don't mind starting over. Sure having my old house back would be neat, but since it will probably be in a "historical landmark" area

Spoiler:

maybe

, a new house would help welcome the new start with the new type of map IMO.

[Stuffman]

I'm thinking the best way to handle it would be to generate another world with the regular generator so it's nice and flat, call it "timewarp world" and paste stuff from the last two servers onto it :V

The new map will require an entirely new kind of architecture, there isn't much flat space at all (that isn't hugging the skybox).

[Dorakyura]

I'm lurking this thread for some time now and I would like to join you when your new server is up   :getdown: (if you allow newbies ^^)

[Dr.Strafe]

OK. New spawn area has been built. We just need to finish setting up LogBlock and we're ON!
