New server, or new map?

Edit: I know, we've had this conversation before. I just like to check.

we need to decide /now/ before we do any work, as I can't convert the new world format back to the old to work with 1.2.

I am going to have a shower, and then I'll decide what to do. I'm edging towards keeping 1.2 for now tbh.

Aye. 1.2 for now, will decide over the next couple of days whether to move based on noises from hMod, kMod,Bukkit etc.

Restoring 1.2 now, should be up in a few.

Can someone find a download for the 1.2 client and share a link pls? :$

Added.

Server is now back up, on 1.2.

You need to have the 1.2 client to log in. If you haven't already updated to 1.3 this should just be a case of using the new launcher and NOT UPDATING TO 1.3 when it asks you.

If you have already upgraded, you need to find the old 1.2 version of Minecraft, and launch it with the new launcher and NOT UPDATE!

I think I have 1.2 on my PC actually, lemme check.

Right, to play 1.2 if you've updated, I /think/ this is what you need to do:

Go to %appdata%/.minecraft and delete or rename the BIN folder.

Then replace it with the BIN folder you can find zipped all up nice and warm here: http://minemap.tehforum.co.uk/bin.rar

Then launch via the new launcher and choose no to update (if you can log in, I still can't log in via the new launcher.).

I'm off out now, so any problems are your own :C
