I've never really played single player so not been yet :(

 

I was upset that after I built a portal on Teh Mine I couldn't get to the Nether.

You should go, it's terrifying :D

(moreso if you don't have a bow and arrows :$ )

It is available - its either or though.

Eh? You mean if we have Nether we can't have monsters?

No, if we have nether we can't have normal world.

Any chance you can give me a list of the mods you're using on Teh server?

 

Might set up a server up at home for me to play on instead of using Single player mode.

Yes, but not til I go home and check :D

 

Main ones are: craftbukkit for the server and essentials 2.1 which gives most if the regular functions you use like item and warp etc.

Okie doke, that should get me started I guess!

 

I've got a feeling my normal server will probably fall over (1.5 GHz P4 1GB RAM) when I try it properly. Minecraft server was complaining of load issues when I just ran it and connected on my own, no mods.

Pet Tameable wolves are now available at your nearest Minecraft 1.4 update.

Here's hopefully upgrading Teh Mine will be easier for Kos this time.

New logo too...

(Hmmm... Are there any good in-browser mini-image editors yet? That can be added to Beehive so I can paste from clipboard, crop, resize, then add an attachment, instead of having to launch a full-blown graphics app to do this.)

There is a TinyMCE thing but I'm sure it costs.

If you use Chrome there's all kinds of image editor apps in the web app store thing. Maybe one of those?

I meant more something that is part of Beehive rather than a browser plugin.

Um... :?

Oh, wait, it's still April 1st isn't it. :(

p.s. don't try to stroke a wolf.

(erm)

I have no idea how those attachments got added to that post too.

I didn't press anything remotely attachment related.

Long story, but I'm back and the mine is up and 1.4'd. Not updated the plugins yet, so some things might not work quite right.

For anyone that wants it...

 

Teh Mine setup:

 

Server: CraftBukkit, latest recommended build (http://ci.bukkit.org/job/dev-CraftBukkit/promotion/latest/Recommended/)
Plugins:

 

BackupPlugin - creates a RAR'd backup of the world files every 30 minutes to a seperate hard drive. keeps the 5 most recent ones.
dynmap - dynamic browser based map
Essentials - provides basic functionality like /item etc.
EssentialsChat - extends chat functionality
EssentialsGroupBridge - no idea
EssentialsGroupManager - permissions management for players
EssentialsProtect - anti-griefing stuff
EssentialsServerlist - multi-server support
EssentialsSpawn - errr, think that allows each player to hav ea custom spawn point or something
HeroicDeath - "fun" messages when people die "JonCooper fell to his death" etc.
MinecartMania Complete - the 9 plugins that are included in the complete download on their page, makes mine carts fun
MobileAdmin - lets me admin the server via the MobileAdmin app on android market
WorldEdit - makes huge wooly spheres that stop Jon logging in when set on fire :$

 

The plugins should all be found here: http://plugins.bukkit.org/#ti=&ta=all&au=

 

I think the cock up last time I updated stuff was because Essentials has been changed -I think all the Essentials stuff which was seperate mods is now in one mod (which most of it should have been anyway tbh).

This isn't intended to be as critical as it might sound, but...

My falloff in interest in playing on the server is partly down to the number of mods. It's just a bit overwhelming and feels a bit too cheaty now. I know of course that I don't have to use them but... I will. And everyone else will be. The only real achievement comes from the scale of the project, which in itself kinda becomes offputting.

I may well be alone in this, I dunno.
