Finally working Nether in SMP!

That is if you use the standard "Server.exe" from the website, my server has had the Nether working since the day it was turned on.

Any chance you can allow water placement? Its not as grief prone as it once was. It used to allow flooding of the server.

I guess I could add some plugin that could tell me who breaks certain objects, then we would know.
Also, the IP of the server has changed again.
Had to be done so something could be added. (I'll get around to getting a static soon)

118.90.65.30

if its not someone its a bug thats causing redstone stuff to vanish

damn no water through doors yet, just checked that 1.6 changelog

Time to run such game?
Just turn the graphics settings down.

Here is the list of things done to work the game to 50 FPS,

Turn down rendering distance to tiny, limit frame rate on, and everything else in the graphics settings. Then I goto Task manager, set its priority to high, and I have a slightly stable game. I'm a genius!

Updated the server to run the latest version, it is using an unofficial server build so it could crash at any time etc.
But it seems to be working ok at the moment.
(Using the teleporter to the Nether and then coming back will make you error out, so don't use it yet)

I'll be on it tomorrow then and think of something to build.

I am unable to connect to your server now. I tried both 1.5.02 and the newest client. Both Failures.

[Lunick]

I can't get onto the server either, I get a "Connection Lost' error

[The Commander]

Not to much I can do about this guys at the moment, the software/program I use to host the server (CraftBukkit) is not updated to run with the latest Minecraft updates.

It seems to be running now.

Pistons are finally in and server is running pretty smooth, also added two other good plugins.
Gravel2Clay, Can turn gravel into clay by either dropping the blocks (press q to drop them) into water or if water comes into contact with gravel. (As Clay is pretty rare to find enough to make enough bricks)

mcMMO, This one adds skills/XP to pretty much everything in Minecraft, gives you access to special abilities that allow you to mine, chop wood etc MUCH faster that with a diamond pick/axe.
Also allows for chances of getting rare items/blocks when mining. Plus more.
Basic commands:
/mcmmo (info on the plugin)
/mcc (all of the commands you have access to)
/stats (your current stats)
/mctop (view the current leader board to see who is ranked the highest)

EDIT: Also updated the original post to be more current and list all plugins running on the server.

Noob question but: any mod that I use in single-player can crash my game or something if I enter in a multiplayer sever that don't have them? Also, If I want to enter in your server, for example, I'll have to download these mods?

If you have manually edited your minecraft.jar file etc it may not let you join.
Just trying joining and you would soon see.

No, all these mods are run server side and you do not need to download anything at all.

Minecraft 1.7 has been released.

The server software won't be able to run this version till there is an update (could take several days at the most)
Till the software is updated, the server will continue to run with the 1.6.6 version.
If you have not updated you will still be able to play.

If you wish to downgrade to play on servers follow this link and the directions.

http://www.great-win...m/minecraft.php

EDIT: It helps if you have the latest Minecraft.exe launcher as the old one never gave you the option to decline an update.

Server is running on Minecraft 1.7, crashes can/are to be expected for a day or two.

Yey! Pistons! Shears! POSSIBILITIES!

The official trailer by Hat Films is classic, too.

To be quite honest, the pistons in 1.7 are not quite as good as the ones I was running on the server.
As the 1.7 ones can't squash blocks and turn them into pickable items or kill mobs.
Plus their is a rather deadly bug with them right now,

Hopefully this will be addressed soon rather than later.

EDIT: @MusicallyInspired, Have you joined our server before?
Of all the 27+ people that have joined thus far I do not see a user name that might resemble yours.

[Lunick]

Hopefully I can think of more creative ways to use the pistons soon as I need to make a new elevator for the hotel I made.

[Stabs]

oh wow that shit is official now

/me orders more server ram!

[The Commander]

Ok, hopefully all the Minecraft updates have finished and now the server is stable and running again.

There was a horrible bug that if a piston broke the wire powering it and broke the circuit it would corrupt the map.
Ouch...

Slimers are enabled, I believe they are in caves.

No, I haven't joined yet. I haven't played Minecraft in a little while. Might hop on soon.

It would be good to see more players on the server.

[LkMax]

Damn! My internet service is good enough to acess sites with a relatively good speed, but the lag in minecraft is ridiculously big (something like 5 seconds between action and reaction). It's unplayable.

[Stabs]

huzah chaps!

The server is now running on 4 gigs of ram!

instead of 1gig.... in single channel... on win 7 64-bit

Hell yeah! The server will run faster then?

It should do, I have noticed that chunks load much quicker.

Also, I have increased the max player limit from 6 to 25, plus changed a couple of other things around that will help.

I have removed the citizen plugin for now as it was causing some weird error messages in the server console and also spawning weird characters in places (herobraine was one of them)

server wont lose sync when i load other things to, 25 players is way to much though my bandwidth only really would support 8-10 nicely

Even though it's set at 25 I highly doubt it would ever get that many players on it at once any time soon.
