    Hmm ... perhaps I shouldn't be hitting the Y-Axis quite as hard ... now I'm feeling a little weird ... :eek:

    If he was wandering around loose near the Stadium, he may be among those I put back in their colour-coded pens, since they were in danger of getting muttonised by my minecart.

    (Is "muttonised" a word? It is now. Baaa!)

    The realm will be moving to Dec's server soon. Just as soon as I learn how to use a Linux server.

    Start thinking now about what plugins you want or don't want...

    Dynamap is the only one I remember...

    Is Bukkit back in action or are we doing Spigot?


  • Registered Users Posts: 288 ✭✭welchy


    Same map and all that?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,031 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    Are those plugins working on MC 1.8? Going back to 1.7.x isn't really an option if you want to keep all that nice Granite.

    Same map, I have no interest in any other map.

    Yeah, map resets are not my thing. I never quite understood them...

    Often, newer version change terrain generation resulting in an ugly mess and sometimes chunk corruption at the border of the "old" chunks where new chunk generation begins. It may also cause corruption issues closer to home.

    At worst, block IDs or functionality are changed making the new version incompatible with old maps. In less severe instances editing programs can be used to forcibly alter old maps to make them compatible, but the more complicated the blocks involved (particularly TileEntities with inventories) the greater the chance of something breaking. Spectacularly.

    Often, resets are just used to give people a freshly up-to-date blank canvas to work from in the hope of pulling in new players and old alike.

    I don't think it's worth deleting everyone's stuff for the sake of a couple of weeks of server popularity. I'm going to stay with this map until it is truly dead. :)

    I prefer it if old maps are kept as alternate dimensions accessible via commands or other mechanics, but again re my last post its not always easily doable :o

    I'd agree with that. I don't think it's worth losing months of progress for the sake of a week to ten days of activity.

    Hard to even say where would be the best place to start,you probably know already but the various launchers have some great mod packs.

    My prefered 2 would be FTB and ATLauncher

    Comgrats on the PC by the way:)

    Thanks! I know a little bit about mod packs, but not a whole lot. I'm not sure FtB is the one for me really, I got the feeling that there's a whole lot of technical/electrical stuff and redstone and that stuff doesn't really interest me. I'd be more interested in getting more custom mobs, biomes, and weird building stuff like carpenters blocks and open blocks. The only techy mods that I'm really interested in are Advanced Genetics and Tinker's Construct I think.

    I might try to give Attack of the B-Team a go, even though I don't think it's the most stable choice. Any recommendations for similar mod-packs would be welcome!


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,377 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    I would recommend Infinity, if only it were more stable >_> Good mix of magic and light-tech (no crazy stuff really) with Carpenters Blocks and Chisel for building, OpenBlocks and Extra Utilities for utilities, Biomes O' Plenty for biomes, and Ender Zoo's mobs and Thaumcraft's rares and mini-bosses adding a bit of spice to the usual mobs. Oh, and TiCo + ExtraTiC to satisfy your tinkering needs :)

    A good idea might be to grab the FTB Launcher and have a browse of the packs on offer for what interests you :)

    Yeah it's moving to a new server soon. The month subscription expired today and I didn't want to pay for another one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,031 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    Cool. I'd like to contribute a bit o' cash at some point, too, seeing as I've been on the Realms fairly regularly. (PayPal?)

    Tried installing FtB launcher, for some reason it kept failing to load any modpacks. Tried about four times, but no dice. Weird, I had installed it easily on my laptop a good while ago.

    I'll try the technic launcher today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,526 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    The Technic launcher worked well, loving the Attack of the B-Team modpack :D

    hi guys,
    I was wondering when the server will be set up.


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users Posts: 650 ✭✭✭Pompous


    I'm now aiming to get it set up by midnight Sunday.

    Sorry for the delay but it's not a simple task. I have to figure out how to upload it to a linux server (which I am unfamiliar with). Also the weather has been so nice all week, I haven't spent any time on the computer.

    I've done a fair amount of Linux work - can I help? I know how to do stuff like FTP upload and copy over SSH (SCP, for when they've given you a "shell" account). For SCP you can use WinSCP on Windows, or one of the many FTP clients out there.

    The server is now up and running. I lost the old whitelist so I'll need everyone to post their whitelist requests (usernames)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,031 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    Well, I decided to "retire" the name Maillart, in protest over the lack of structural rigour in Minecraft. Maybe the real Maillart would have appreciated the ability to span mountain valleys using nothing but unreinforced dirt, but then we wouldn't have masterpieces such as this:

    pe-maillart-salginatobel.jpg

    So I've decided to go for an obscure literary reference this time: can you whitelist DirkGently on the new server?

    (Amazing that no-one had taken than name, yet Slartibartfast, Vroomfondel and GrunthosTheFlatulent were all taken ... )
