Uh, don't mean to be a ninny, but who burnt erocker's house?

[Easy Rhino]

i will give you 2 guesses.

[cadaveca]

Man, I dunno, seriously could have been anyone as far as I know. I just dig.:laugh:

Heck, I haven't even barely been on teamspeak for near two weeks. I fell outta the loop.

[blu3flannel]

I know how it feels to have your house burn down, it happened to me twice. :( Erocker, you need to rebuild it in sandstone, it looks much better. And there's a TeamSpeak?

[cadaveca]

Yep, we've been using erocker's, at least, was that way before I got busy?

Check the BFBC2 thread, the info's in there lots, or on blackharu's signature.

[TheMailMan78]

So is the new world up? Just without plug ins?

[erocker]

And there's a TeamSpeak?

[Easy Rhino]

this is up to you guys. i am busy until sunday so i can either start a new world now and wait until sunday to add mods/plugins or i can wait until sunday to start a new world. we also need to work out some ground rules for lot spaces and roads. i say that in the beginning at least we all build fairly close to eachother.

Well, I'm all for starting it now. You may want to give flannel a save of the current map.

I think for the start we should start by building a road grid.

*Also, I see you lookin sneeky. You should get in on this!

Im down and Ill help. Just leave me a large plot for a castle. Thats all I ask.

I wholly agree with this statement; let's do it now. I reeeallly want that save though. :p

[erocker]

I'll be off of work soon and I'll be ready.

[TheMailMan78]

Ill be on tonight. I have some ideas also.

[cadaveca]

I can't play until the weekend. Leave me a space! :laugh:

[blu3flannel]

Wait, what the heck? All the trees in the Public Tree Farm are gone! I'm guessing someone burned them down...

[Easy Rhino]

i can't just snap my fingers and have the new world started since i am at work. give me some time. you will know when it is a new world!

[sneekypeet]

*Also, I see you lookin sneeky. You should get in on this!

not a good idea bro, all I want to do is burn shit and it seems that is frowned upon in that game;)

[garyinhere]

i will give you 2 guesses.

Me :p I am that one armed man

@rhino... is there a way i can get a back up and run it for erika? or does it have to be set up as a server?

[Easy Rhino]

i can send people backups tonight when i get home. the new world is building right now. give it 5 minutes before connecting please.

[garyinhere]

Will there be bunnies George? Tell me bout the bunnies.

[Easy Rhino]

server is up. whitelist is updated and same with server.properties. there will be a spawn area you cannot build inside. i will make some cool stuff there later. please remember to build wide roads like the first server between towns. the spawn area will be the town center so connect from there!

[TheMailMan78]

lol I was just in there and everything was on fire!

[sneekypeet]

The roof, the roof, the roof is on........ Lightening?

[garyinhere]

lol I was just in there and everything was on fire!

yea you were lol idk random forest fire?

[Easy Rhino]

i cant stress it enough that we stay close to the spawn. it is much easier to build this way and easier on the server at first as it builds all the world stuff.

[Easy Rhino]

new carto is up! i will do stats on sunday.

[Easy Rhino]

hrm start world sucks im gonna try a few more

[Easy Rhino]

ok i settled on a build. looks good. carto is up showing start location.

[Soylent Joe]

Alright, I see what has happened. Is it still important that we build near spawn on the new map?

[Easy Rhino]

Alright, I see what has happened. Is it still important that we build near spawn on the new map?

yes please. lets build up our center of town with a nice road system and such. once we have built up to our hearts delight i can make it part of the safe zone.

[THRiLL KiLL]

can anyone join up?

thinking about getting the game :) i have seen way to many videos!

[Easy Rhino]

sure man! let me know when you buy it and what your minecraft id is and i can add you!

[erocker]

You can see the progress on the carto! http://easyrhino.homelinux.com/

[PVTCaboose1337]

So we got a new map huh? Ok great I might come help. I get bored of the same old same old sometimes.

[erocker]

If you love building roads on a nice even grid, come on in!

[Virus-j]

Could i Join the server Please Easy Rhino ? Minecraft username is : ViRuS_J

[PVTCaboose1337]

If you love building roads on a nice even grid, come on in!

Yeah I mined cobble for them. Now I'm trying to get a resource center going for blue so he can build his glass thing.

[STCNE]

Can you add me to the server? My MC name is STCNE, I can't promise that I'll stick around long, but I'd like to give your server a try.

[blu3flannel]

Yeah I mined cobble for them. Now I'm trying to get a resource center going for blue so he can build his glass thing.

You should see it man, I'm doing most of the building underwater/ground and it looks pretty cool.

[FordGT90Concept]

I suppose I could make a quaint little house on your server while I iron out details on my next big project (http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/showpost.php?p=2276811&postcount=1215) for tekie's server. The name's the same on here as Minecraft.

[erocker]

Got torches up on all the roads for the most part, things look great at night.

Hey can you post the picture of me and my life partner?

[13BrewCrew8]

Hey if I want to be whitelisted, what do I do?

[TheMcGoose]

Hey my best friend is blu3flannel and he is sitting behind me saying that he will disown me if i post this, so can i get white listed?

[TheMailMan78]

Hey if I want to be whitelisted, what do I do?

You have to pay homage to me. I like cake........cake and fappin'

[blu3flannel]

What?

[Easy Rhino]

sorry, i only white list people i know from TPU.

[Easy Rhino]

i had a few minutes to stake out my claim in the town center today. you will see the foundation of a cobble house near a small mine.

Where is it in relation to everything else? How do you like the way things are progressing so far? Also, the dirt hut and the other building that PVT made can go to make room for something else since we're on to building houses and stuff.

Come on man! Wheres the pic!

[newtekie1]

Hey Easy, can you whitelist me so I can drop in and check out your server from time to time. ;)

I like cake........cake and fappin'

You know, no matter how many times we argue over stupid shit in the forums, I still like you because of comments like this.(Not that I really hold a grudge against anyone, life's too short.:laugh:)

[erocker]

Come on man! Wheres the pic!

On my computer at home.

[Easy Rhino]

looks good. the road layout is nice and clean. everyone is starting with enough space between them but not too much space. this is a good starting point since we have a nice lake front property now.

Hey Easy, can you whitelist me so I can drop in and check out your server from time to time. ;)


yea, what's your minecraft name again?

and to erika and blu3flannel, keep reminding me so i can email you the world files from the older map.

[erocker]

Tonight I'm taking down the dirt hut (I'll put a landmark in it's place) since it's where we had to struggle after coming to the new world. I'm thinking of making a small town in the "city blocks", things like a town hall, general store, etc. Perhaps some apartment looking buildings....

[Easy Rhino]

sounds good. i cant wait until sunday when i will have free time again! i may build a giant wall around our center of town to make like a protective barrier. perhaps somebody could work on a fortress and we can expand it to make a castle.

[TheMailMan78]

Ya know the steel doors are electric powered. If they hold back water we could build a dam.

sounds good. i cant wait until sunday when i will have free time again! i may build a giant wall around our center of town to make like a protective barrier. perhaps somebody could work on a fortress and we can expand it to make a castle.

Um have you seen what I am building? Even my placement is PERFECT for that. Ill rearange things to be the main gate to the city if you guys want.

[erocker]

Yeah, MailMan is in a perfect location for the castle since the city is based around the lake. Houses go around the lake, City on one side, the castle on the other. Oh, if people want to give me some coal that would be cool since it used it all up on the roads.. and made all the roads myself. I also placed blocks and torches around the lake so it's pretty.

Come to the castle when Im online. I have a bunch I think.

[blu3flannel]

I think I win when it comes to the smallest surface space used. :D Everything is looking good and the roads are coming along nicely. I'm still trying to figure out how I'll work my little entrance into the road system.

and to erika and blu3flannel, keep reminding me so i can email you the world files from the older map.

My email is blu3flannel@gmail.com whenever you get around to it.

[Easy Rhino]

im going to continue the road on the northeast side of the town down to my place eventually and then start on a wall outside of that.

[erocker]

I'm still trying to figure out how I'll work my little entrance into the road system.



Boat dock.

So, I want to make another rail system. Any ideas of where it should go? Perhaps a loop around the city and the lake?

[TheMailMan78]

So am I converting my castle or not?

[Easy Rhino]

if you wait it may be easier for me to assess things later.

[newtekie1]

yea, what's your minecraft name again?

newtekie1 :D

[Easy Rhino]

done

[blu3flannel]

It's giving me several different errors whenever I attempt to log in...

EDIT: Never mind.

[erocker]

BTW, if set a creeper to blow up and it does damage to a road or building.. FIX IT! :shadedshu

[Easy Rhino]

the world files are 117 megs so emailing them wont work. i will have to upload them to the teamspeak folder.

[digibucc]

the world files are 117 megs so emailing them wont work. i will have to upload them to the teamspeak folder.

i've got an ftp you can use to share if that doesn't work -
or just through them in your carto folder and send them a link,
they can dl right from the server...

i just don't know teamspeak enough, if it's good transferring files.

Yeah, you can put it in http://easyrhino.homelinux.com/images which is publicly accessible and we can download it from there.

[erocker]

Works quite well really. Seems to max my upload and download bandwith

[Easy Rhino]

you can get the files here

http://easyrhino.homelinux.com/images/minecraft_world/

[blu3flannel]

How do you download the whole folder without having to download each individual file?

[Easy Rhino]

i dont really know. oh wait, ill put the zip file in that dir

it will be called world.rar in easyrhino.homelinux.com/images

[newtekie1]

Someone is messing around with tectonicus...:laugh:

[Easy Rhino]

yea on the other map i was trying it out but it does not work with java 1.6 in linux and im waiting for ubuntu to port the upcoming java 1.7 hopefully soon.

[newtekie1]

That's why I don't run Linux servers.:laugh:

[blu3flannel]

We're working on an underground tunnel system, so if you want to get connected let me know. We have a few people connected so far and it'd be cool to have a whole network under the map.

[Easy Rhino]

i added a bunch of plugins now as promised. you can check the original post for links to them if you need to know commands.

[Easy Rhino]

i started the epic wall on the east side of the map. 2 wide by 25 high. if you work on it and make lots of progress the server will give you diamonds!

[erocker]

Here's a nice night shot.

http://i403.photobucket.com/albums/pp112/erocker414/2011-05-09_013230.png

[Easy Rhino]

hey guys im looking for some cool simple plugins to add before taking the big leap into iconomy. i also know that eventually i will need to implement spleefing for us again.

but for the time being check out this neat plugin. it creates a tesla coil that zaps mobs within the radius of how tall the coil is. could be epic to place these around our town!

http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/mech-teslacoil-v1-3-5-keep-mobs-at-bay-the-futuristic-way-740.16115/

edit: added it to the server. check the link for how to set it up. you will need iron blocks (lots of them) and redstone connected to current.

[cadaveca]

Geez, I'd love that in the mine under my "house", lost so much stuff because the monster density is so high.


I'd love more plug-ins that exploit redstone, really.

[erocker]

I'd love more plug-ins that exploit redstone, really.

Hopefully redstone works properly this time around. Btw, I need iron for some rail to finish the track. Everyone feel free to donate some to me, I used about 150 of my own iron so far.

[PVTCaboose1337]

How much do you need?

[cadaveca]

Crap..I lost 256 unsmelted iron last night. And twice that in redstone. I really wish the map would re-spawn these things back where they were when you die, as that really sucks to have happen...again...and again...this hole I'm down is a doozy, for sure.


But, got more work to do, of course, taknig a day of rest today, kinda, but I'll play for a bit later and will let know what i get.


LoL or....Rhino could jsut give it to you...:laugh:

[digibucc]

yeah i'm now in the habit of keeping chests nearby, and never holding more than i can afford to lose on death.. like 30 max most times :)

[Easy Rhino]

here is the proposed location of the wall (in red and project started) and tesla coils (blue spots).

if you have a better idea of where to place the coils just speak up. i would like to get the wall up fairly soon. 2 wide, 22 high. if you work on it i will reward you with iron and diamonds.

http://img.techpowerup.org/110509/carto819.jpg

[cadaveca]

yeah i'm now in the habit of keeping chests nearby, and never holding more than i can afford to lose on death.. like 30 max most times :)
Well, you know, before, I was just mining and giving the stuff away, so never held on to much. Now I have something i want to build, and need specific materials to do so...so I didn't even realize I was so low on health, both times...

And then the damn hole is so bloody confusing, I couldn't find where I died in time.


:laugh:

Totally frustrating.


Rhino, can we get a couple up near the end of my area, by either end of the road??

[erocker]

Hopefully the tesla coils kill the mobs and not turn them into supercharged creepers and giant zombies!

Oh and as for the wall, let's not have it too confined.

http://i403.photobucket.com/albums/pp112/erocker414/mcwall.jpg

[blu3flannel]

I set up a tesla coil at my house and erocker's gonna test it while I'm gone.

[Easy Rhino]

I set up a tesla coil at my house and erocker's gonna test it while I'm gone.

sweet. i can edit the vertical radius and i can edit the horizontal radius as well in the config file. so its reach does not have to depend on how tall it is. but for the sake of looking cool i say we make them BIG!

[PVTCaboose1337]

sweet. i can edit the vertical radius and i can edit the horizontal radius as well in the config file. so its reach does not have to depend on how tall it is. but for the sake of looking cool i say we make them BIG!

Put them to 128 and have the radius be 1000 blocks. One giant tesla coil in the center. In erocker's house.

[Easy Rhino]

stop trolling my clubhouse, boy.

[Easy Rhino]

i moved the coil out behind my house where creepers actually spawn at night and the thing kicks ass. if we have a lot of these things it would be epic!

[digibucc]

i'm up for helping build, just need some instruction.

sadly i can't tonight :( there should be work left tomorrow, right?

[Easy Rhino]

oh yea, lots of work left. we need a ton of iron for the rail system rocker is working on. i need tons of cobble for the massive protective wall.

for the coils, we should decide how far we want each to reach and take into consideration how many we want around town. also, i think we should make them really tall for maximum cool factor.

[blu3flannel]

Who the hell took 4 of my iron blocks? I had them in a tesla coil along with some redstone and now they're gone.

[erocker]

Rhino moved it most likely.

[blu3flannel]

That was just a test, that wasn't necessarily for public use. I was going to break it down and trade it to you for the rail system. I guess it can stay where it is though since it'll be for the common good.

[Easy Rhino]

lmao. i mentioned in my previous post that i moved it to where it was. i can give you blocks.

[blu3flannel]

No worries. So how are tesla coils going to be spread across the town?

[Easy Rhino]

so i disabled the coils for now since they were burning all the trees and lagging the server out. the guy who made the plugin is updating it so that it wont target animals at all but lightning causes fire no matter what. could be dangerous.

Well I kinda thought about that. Apparently they can target sand and make us free glass. That might be helpful if glass were moveable.

[Easy Rhino]

i found a plugin that stops lightning from spreading fire however all of the lightning lags out the server. plus, it kills all the animals other than the pigs (which would otherwise create pigmen.) the plugin dev is working on adding more features, but the lag really is the issue. i priced out some parts and i could throw together a 2500K system for $380. i am tempted.

[blu3flannel]

I like how have to make a tower taller than mine, Mailman. :p

[Easy Rhino]

proposed server project: pirate ship!

location in red:

http://img.techpowerup.org/110511/render.jpg

we should build out a large wooden dock first and clear out some of the sand there in the middle. this doesnt have to be a massive ship but it should be say 50 long by 20 wide by 40 high??

I'm in for it. Was working on the wall, too, been a bit too busy the past few days though.

nice avatar, BTW.:laugh:

[blu3flannel]

50 long by 20 wide by 40 high:wtf:



That's pretty damn big. And I can contribute wood since I have a tree farm.

[Easy Rhino]

:wtf:



That's pretty damn big. And I can contribute wood since I have a tree farm.

yea i guess:laugh:

maybe slightly smaller. either way i will start a template and clear out sand tonight.

[blu3flannel]

I think the dimensions are fine. We could go bigger, we need to extend the server's e-peen. :p

[Easy Rhino]

ship is almost complete!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's beautiful, sorry I wasn't on to help. I'll be on tonight to help on the wall.

[Easy Rhino]

erocker, i put a chest down in the bottom of the ship with some wool and wood, planks.

on one of the sails we should put the power logo from the tpu logo!

[Easy Rhino]

epic win.

http://img.techpowerup.org/110513/2011-05-13_00.28.22.png

[blu3flannel]

Is anyone building over here?

http://img.techpowerup.org/110514/render0001.png

It'd be good to know so we could maneuver the wall around it. That certainly doesn't look like something Minecraft would randomly generate.

[blu3flannel]

I'm having some issues with the server. I can't open chests, and when I place blocks I can't destroy them. When I log back in, they're gone. This is weird... :confused:

EDIT: Never mind, I got it working. Time to work on the wall.

[erocker]

I just logged in, inside my house on fire and died. I don't know what items I had but I don't have them anymore. I think I was mugged, raped and set on fire in my sleep. :cry: :laugh:

[Conti027]

What is with everything getting set on fire ?

[cadaveca]

What is with everything getting set on fire ?

Lightening?



:laugh:

[erocker]

It was just me, not my house.

[Conti027]

Lightening?



:laugh:

oh. I didn't know lightning could set stuff on fire. lol makes sense.

[Easy Rhino]

lightning cant set stuff on fire now.

[cadaveca]

Wow, you all have been busy. Finally got time to play again, any projects ongoing other than the wall?

[AthlonX2]

let me in...not by the hair on your chinny chin chin

[Easy Rhino]

let me in...not by the hair on your chinny chin chin

i will whitelist you since i have anti-griefing measures. but dont make me use them!

[erocker]

Griefers B Griefin'

[AthlonX2]

i never griefed before it was the fire zombies that were chasing me

[Easy Rhino]

i added a plugin that sets the time to day when anyone gets in bed at night. this way we avoid the issue of people leaving the server but coming back to quickly before the time resets.

[TheMailMan78]

i added a plugin that sets the time to day when anyone gets in bed at night. this way we avoid the issue of people leaving the server but coming back to quickly before the time resets.

Awesome!

[Easy Rhino]

i also just added the iconomy plugin. lots of neat things we can use this for down the line. so for a new server project we should build a spleef arena AND a fight arena. there is this neat plugin that lets us choose a class of player and inside the arena we can fight it out with weapons.

[blu3flannel]

I'll work on the spleef arena, I have some great ideas for it. If only the spleef plugin would allow for circles, we could make the arena using the TPU logo.

[Easy Rhino]

agreed. i will be using nspleef again as simplespleef doesnt do world rebuilding yet. probably should use similiar dimensions as last time as far as size of the field goes.

[Easy Rhino]

here is where we should build the spleef arena

How can I contribute?

[Easy Rhino]

once we break ground we will need lots of cobble, sandstone, glass

[blu3flannel]

I propose a sort of Roman coliseum design around the arena. Something similar to a gladiator arena would look pretty sweet. We'd have to make it out of sandstone, though, so it'd look era-appropriate.

NP. Ill start diggin tonight. Have you installed the teleport plugin yet?

triple monitor? good god that is a lot of minecraft awesomeness.

damn you guys! why didn't anyone say anything about mincecraft and multi-monitor! Awesome, gonna hook up the triple-screens later!

[erocker]

here is where we should build the spleef arena

Just make sure that you have the boundaries marked off as the spawn area "safe zone" is located in the bottom right corner of the red square you made.

Okay, so what's the game plan for the spleef arena? I'm on right now and just finished following the pattern for the wood ceiling border, what now?

nspleef plugin added and the arena is setup to play.

it is also hooked into iconomy so if you want to wager some money you can.

I was tempted to buy Minecraft today after watching this.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpksyojwqzE&feature=player_embedded

But then I see it's not $21.95 so I decided against it :( Does it ever go on sale?

[Kreij]

You'll be hard pressed to find another game for $21 that's as stupidly addicting, socially hysterical and has almost infinite replayability.

[1Kurgan1]

You'll be hard pressed to find another game for $21 that's as stupidly addicting, socially hysterical and has almost infinite replayability.

Possibly, but I got over 150 games in my Steam library and most I have barely touched and some of those are games like Bioshock 1/2, Metro 2033, and some other very highly rated games. I actually am looking for short games recently so I can actually know what it's like to beat a game, been jumping from game to game to try and play all of my titles some. :p

[Kreij]

I know what you mean, Kurgan, I too have more games than I will ever finish.
That doesn't matter to me though, I buy them for entertainment and like you, jump between them depending on my "Gaming Mood"™ :D

Minecraft is one of those games that you can play for 5 minutes at a time or for endless hours.
There is no winning or losing, there is only building (IMO the survival aspect is an after thought to add a little suspense). The new addition of rain and lightning looks like it's hysterically funny (burning forests and building, giant zombies, etc.).

I may just jump on one of the servers and dig out a block or two today. If it were not for my crap internet connection, I would be playing regularly. Even the best games do not hold my interest more than a couple of hours, so MC is a good fit for me.

[LAN_deRf_HA]

I find myself always getting sucked into some side thing that eats up insane amounts of time. Like when I decided I wanted to build higher. One week later (even with the aid of flying and op) I had removed about 300,000 blocks. 3 days after that I finished lining it with gold. Then I find myself in a sort of depression, wondering how will I ever reclaim the time lost in that pointless endeavor? I should be out conquering the world and all that jazz.

Strange lag issues... Doors will open, no stuttering, but there is lots of lag with opening chests, crafting tables, furnaces, etc.

[cadaveca]

easy needs to reboot the server, or something. it's fine, until a second person enters lol.

[erocker]

I just don't think netbooks are supposed to be used as servers. Just my opinion though. :D

[cadaveca]

:laugh:


Oh well, was working fine...but that whole section surrounded by road that goes around my house has had a major transformation, was seemingly fine before that...


Netbook needs more ram.

http://i.imgur.com/AnHDn.jpg

[Easy Rhino]

lmao! so the server was lagging but it took 23 days this time. netstats from the previous map was causing the bulk of the lag i think. anyway, we should be good for another 3 weeks.

[Easy Rhino]

the fight plugin is installed...

http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/fun-fight-v1-1-4-arena-type-battles-740.16193/

however it seems a little bit buggy but still works. winning team gets 3 diamonds. it costs 2 dollars to join a match and winners get their money back.

i also have to load up worldguard since this plugin doesnt have a region reset yet.

edit: btw for now PVP is ON while i work on this. do not grief eachother!!!!

Hey, I just got myself Minecraft and I was wondering if I might be allowed onto the server. I think Mailman probably needs a whipping boy / house slave and I can probably fill that role pretty well.

good question. i was just like wtf is happening?

done, the only rule is not to build to far off to start. find a nice spot near the center of town where nobody has built. oh, and make sure you follow the pattern of the road system.

Sorry E, I have a tendancy to go AFK, even when I'm not entirely safe from mobs. And I'd just like to say there are some very confusing and elaborate dungeons someone's gone and built on here.

I got lost, found myself, only to realize I was actually lost in the same area again.

[digibucc]

most dungeons aren't built they are generated when the world is, then dug out and mined.

[blu3flannel]

We do have a underground tunnel system going, so if you (or anyone for that matter) want to be connected let me know and we can work on it.

[newtekie1]

I just wanted to make everyone aware that Minecraft 1.6 will be coming out sometime in the next week.

So you might want to ask Easy how the server will handle this(will he update and go back to a vanilla server, or wait until bukkit is updated and the plug-ins work) and if you should update or stay on the old version for a while.

[Easy Rhino]

i think i will handle it like the transmission to 1.5. clients should keep their version at 1.5 until bukkit releases a stable version and the plugins dont break the game.

[Easy Rhino]

im working with digibucc to come up with a solution for a faster minecraft server.

i already have a case, hdd and dvd drive. i need a psu, mobo, cpu and ram to match.

i would like to keep this as cheap as possible so im thinking 775 stuff.

a 400 watt psu would suffice, but the cpu needs ot be quad core or at the very least a really fast dual core intel chip. minecraft uses a ton of cpu power to constantly update the changes in blocks when a lot of people are online. 4 gigs of ram should be enough so long as it is ddr 800 or above.

if you see any of this stuff for sale on tpu or major deals online let me know. ifyou have parts to donate or are willing to let go for cheap also let me know.

I have a rig all setup. If you want to transfer it to that rig and we could setup the server so you can run it remotely, let me know. Or whatever, it's all setup an it's got nothing to do.

Specs:
Phenom II quad @ 4ghz
4gb DDR3 1600 cas 7

[cadaveca]

I will give you foxconn blackops and a q6600, if you pay shipping. Blackops has no audio, though.

No rams, but I could toss you a couple of 1GB stickss too, until you get better stuff.


Of course, now I see erocker's post. that might be the most affordable option, but my offer stands, too! ;)

[Easy Rhino]

rocker and i have been talking. his rig would be perfect but i am so anal about administration that i cant see myself being effective at updating everything remotely on a windows system. :( plus, since the game is in beta it needs constant attention. just much harder to do using windows.

dave, a that blackops board and q6600 are great. what kinda shipping costs we talking leaving canada. i know it is generally expensive but it may still be worth it. i dont mind paying shipping obviously if people have parts laying around.

Well, I've been running a server client on it, and I'm pretty sure I'm capable of doing what needs to be done. Up to you though.

[cadaveca]

About $35-$40.

If you can wait until June 15th, I'll just mail it; consider the shipping cost, etc as my contribution to our little gaming community.

I'm jsut a little strapped for extras right now; too many May b-days, 2 of them my kids. Last one is on the 31st...but my next pay I can get them out the door to ya, gratis.

Seems liek erocker is itching for involvement though, send me a PM, Easy, and regardless of how it works out, if you'll put it to use, I'll gladly donate the parts to ya.

[Easy Rhino]

truth be told i enjoy administrating the server. i know rocker would do a fine job, but i feel personally i would be losing some of the enjoyment of playing the game. and because i enjoy it so much id like to make it more powerful so that people continue to play on it and i can continue to learn how to be a quality administer of a server running a beta video game with third party mods and fourth party plugins.

[cadaveca]

Well, PM me your addy, I'll get it on it's way in a couple of weeks, for sure.

[Easy Rhino]

do not update your client!

[Easy Rhino]

thanks to digibucc and dave, by mid-june we will have a quad core powered minecraft server with plenty of ram! i expect to run all sorts of cool ram/cpu eating mods.

Tonight on the server expect a large scale PVP matchup. Everyone is encouraged to join and prizes will be plentiful!!

Also, I am creating a scavenger hunt! Within a medium size pit will be iron, gold, coal and diamonds hidden amongst cobble. Finders keepers!!!!

[blu3flannel]

There's a much easier way to clear all that, dude. Go to one corner with a wooden axe and left click. Go to the other and right click. That will set your selection. Then, do //expand [amount] down. That'll select a certain depth down, so you selection will be a big rectangular prism. Do //set 0 and it will turn everything to air, erasing all of the blocks.

2 minutes?

Alright so, I've got a dilemma. There's a large section of purple blocks near the ship. Now I was walking along said surface trying to avoid a mob that was chasing me, and I fell down through an opening in the purple surface. I discovered that this purple surface covered a mother lode of ores and junk. Cool, though I quickly found out this area was protected by permissions. I can't build myself out or tunnel myself out. So I figure I'll search around for an exit as this surely can't be completely inescapable.

I now find myself 10 blocks down a 1x1 pit with no way out. I can't even kill myself to respawn out of the pit.

bukkit has released a version compatible with minecraft 1.6.5. however, here is what they say...

This is a non-recommended development and test build. You will not receive support outside of bug reporting. Backing up your server and completely understanding the risks of running this build is highly recommended before you run it.

Once again, we cannot guarantee that this build will not completely corrupt your world or cause a disturbance in the force.

should i proceed or are we happy with 1.5.2 for now?

minecraft 1.6.6 is out now too lol and bukkit has another non-recommended build for it. seems like the more they update minecraft the more bugs they find in the source code. i expect a full rewrite of minecraft before it goes retail.

[FordGT90Concept]

Notch said there would be an update this week to fix issues in 1.6.5. I think there's so many updates after 1.6 because of adding Nether support. There's a whole lot to go wrong. XD

Naw, it won't get a full rewrite before launch. That would take at least a year and, not to mention, debugging would have to start all over.

[Easy Rhino]

im gonna wait until i hear great things about 1.6.6 or 1.6.7

going down the list, the bug fixes are nice but my server is humming along just fine. doesnt seem worth it at this time since bukkit disables multiworld due to crashes.

oh, and PvP tonight. come on people!
