To back up manually I have to stop the server as several thousand of the 70k files are open.

 

Presumably more important with the new file format (a world in only a 10 files! :D)

Aye, I agree. Might even encourage building between the main settlements. Maybe.

Kos: Surely you can backup a file while it's being read? Just not when it's being written. They're not locked or anything are they?

My castle isn't on the map :'(

OK, server is offline for a few. I am copying the entire server directory, settings and all, and going to try running the bukkit mod to see what's what. That'll be with 1.3 on.

 

Apparently Minecart Mania works with bukkit already, and i'm not sure yet but I /think/ there is some kind of backup shit built in.

I dunno, probably. When i tried doing it manually prior to the backup plugin it always failed with a shitload of errors.

 

I think the server is more or less constantly saving shit as soon as it's changed, so that might be why :|

Where abouts is it?

 

I've done a map before changing the server over (MC Map won't work with the new save format I suspect, so might be the last one for a while).

:((

Up and to the left from where my dam/valley is, on a snowy bit.

Ahh, yeah. OK.

 

I'll make sure it's included when i get round to editing this 60MB PNG file :|

Try now with 1.3 (kiss)

I just want to see if it looks as good in map form as it does "in person" :$

Just had a quick peek and it looks UNFINISHED :C

That'll be because it is a VISIONARY project of GRAND AMBITION, and will be a WORK OF THE AGES.

 

You'll see :Y (eventually :(( )

Could still use Cartograph http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=13134

Doubt that's been updated to the new world format yet though -_-

That looks fun.

 

I only use MC MAp because it's supposed to be compatable with the back up plugin (ie doing scheduled maps), but it never bloody worked :(

I've used it on my SP stuff and it's... very slow but yeah, makes nice maps :D

Just seen a plugin for teleporting between servers :D

:D

is your castle the wooden one with a mine in the lake outside?

we had a look about there

No, it's the big stone one with the huge front entrance and not a lot else.
