1.6.1 1.6.2 1.6.3 1.6.4 is out.

Looks like this might be a bit buggy. Might wait a bit.

Right, we need a server again. I'll try and set one up but it'll probably fall over from the sounds of things in the past!

I care! - me and Jake play most days, finding servers can be an issue sometimes though

I ran a server a few minutes ago to try out multiplayer nether and... it doesn't work. Completely fucked for me. So yeah, a few more bugfixes before it's viable I think.

But yeah, Zenechka is really missing the server so you'll have at least one grateful user.

I might give it a go in a bit then since I want to play too.

Please make it a non-cheaty server :((

How non-cheaty?

I think peaceful mode style damage model is fine (i.e. replenishing health) and reasonable warps. But not infinitely able to spawn blocks of any sort ... it just kills half the game - it's so rewarding to have to mine stuff in order to build stuff. Maybe only let mods make warps and not have many/any (other than you) mods. And mods could spawn stuff we can't get in peaceful like bones (to get wolves) and stuff?

we have been playing on a survival server, I had forgotten how scary mining can be

uurrgghhhhhhhhh

For me, it's starts off scary (in a fun way) then after a while just becomes a fucking chore because of the sheer volume of zombies and shit coming at you all the time.

Especially spiders. Fucking spiders.

I can't afford the electric /or/ the internet to run it anymore :(

 

But if someone does want to run the old server, I'm happy to share the map/world files.

:( :( :( :(

 

As I said earlier I would, but I don't think my puny HP NL36 will handle it too well... Did you find that it made a big difference to have a faster CPU?

Right, didn't do it last night, need to find somewhere to put the computer where I have a spare network socket. So that'll be attic or under the stairs, probably attic.

 

Hopefully going to be able to do it tonight.

It made a bit of difference, but not hugely. The server code has been getting much more efficient, and craftbukkit is much more efficient than hey0 was.

How can we get the server files etc off you?
Then again... do we actually prize the old setup so much, or should we start from scratch?

DVD in the post? I only have Boughtonesque internet at the moment...

I will set this up this week. Possibly tonight, been silly busy and not at home.

I intend to wipe WHS and install WHS2011 first, so it might take a few days.. I don't think anyone is in a rush though by the looks of things.
COMPETITION!!! GO ANT GO!!

What's your upload speed?

 

Because if the server stuff has been optimised enough then it might be down to upload speed as to which of us will be able to do the job better.

 

I'm at 1.3MBit up.

I'm on Virgin's 30Mbps package, with 3Mbps upload enabled.
