Looks awesome! I wish I had time to play.

Well, if I cannot sleep (or when it is weekend), I sometimes like to play MC for an hour or two to clear my mind. Over the course of a few months I have build that village, square and of course that wall of ice (with cobble on top). The castle/farmstead of Winterfell just develops according to my needs and currently does not act as an active building project.
I will limit the amount of playing hours drastically for a while now though, because of RL priorities. I simply got a "burst rate" of building activity this week before a slumber mode.

Yeah, that wall of ice looks bad ass, and I bet it was a pain to build.

Also, just FYI, if you press F1 it hides our toolbar and healthbars so the screen shots look cleaner.

It was. Especially letting it fit into the landscape (with all that hills, lakes and the like) and making it in such a manner that it did not become a huge mob spawner. BTW, that part in the western flank of the Wall does not end at that hill. there is a tunnel there that leads to a next section (of cobblestone this time) that will go all the way to the canyon that is next to the river and Winterfell. I hope to get my home zone completely walled and mob free, with the port and my semi-completed railroad connecting the area with Kard and the South.

I know, but I just did a quick photoshoot & upload so I forgot about that in the hurry.

After much toil, the chicken farm is done. The "tunnel" warp is right next to it. It could use a lot more chickens though.

Is there a reason why half of the warp points kill you? I just lost a ton of diamonds because I used a warp that I thought worked and it killed me. I used it again and it worked fine.

It would be really cool if we could just delete ones that didn't work instead of just leaving them there.

It is a side effect of the way warping works, you arrive at the location before the map is loaded, so you fall through the world. Just disconnect and connect again before you die.

As you noticed they all do it from time to time, so there is no deleting the ones that don't work, there would ne no warping if we did that.

I think it has something to do with how much solid material is under the warp. The more material there is, the less likely you'll fall through. If you tell us the warp, we can try moving it and hopefully it won't be lethal anymore. Remember, you can always warp to p to get out of a bad situation.

Well I played around with allowing everyone onto the server, but I can't restrict the ability to build. To do it I would need to install the full essentials suite, which conflicts with half the plug-ins we use, especially MyWarp. I'll look into other ways to do this later.

Edit: I worked on it some more and found a plug-in that will work. The server is now public, but I still have to give you permission to build and interact with things.

Sorry. Fixed it. The plug-in's main page said it only had one permission node, but in one of the updates it added more control over what to restrict using a few more permission nodes. Everything should be working now.

Yup, it's working again and I even managed to collect most of the wheat before it vanished.

That is why I'm waiting for the first price cut, by then the server issues should be ironed out, and I get it cheaper.

Bingo. That is what I'm doing. Every time Blizzard releases a game, this happens. Plus, it's not like the game is going anywhere and when we start, the game will already be patched for numerous bugs as well.

I can join the server but after a few seconds MC just goes away (CTD).

Strange, running out of memory? That's the most frequent cause of CTD.

8GB isn't enough on my rig? Never happened before when I hit the TPU server.
Nothing in event log. :/

Are you running 64-bit java/minecraft (have to be using the .jar)?

In any event, this is what I'd do:
1) Uninstall 64-bit Java (if installed).
2) Install 64-bit Java.
3) Delete C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft
4) Create new folder C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft
4) Download minecraft.jar from minecraft.net and place it in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft.
5) Use this program to create the shortcut: http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/sh...postcount=1349
6) Run Minecraft via the shortcut it created.

That should take care of any and all problems with the game.
