CFC Minecraft Server -- World 4

[Matt0088]

I'd say we're nearing 80% done with the demolition of Minestaff. Only the rest of the walls not directly attached to the Citadel need to be torn down, the roads also need to be removed, and the redstone hallways underneath them filled in, the Seaside Cottage that's not Popcorn's needs to be removed as well (the one farthest out), and all the Floating crap needs to be removed, then we're essentially done! (Besides some moderate landscaping to fix now exposed hills)

Once I get a clean rendering of the map without all that, I can draw up my basic ideas, I'll send out a PM to any previous Minestaffians and anyone who has indicated their interest, we'll make some improvements to the basic plan, and then lay down the new road structure, and get started on Nova Minestaff!

Also, whatever changes Croxis implemented have completely eliminated any of the previous lag.

 

[Skwink]

Nah, keep the ether.
I don't see the need for minestaff, though.

Why would we keep the Nether? There's really no use for it at all.

 

[croxis]

Yes there is. Nether uses distance compression for both worlds. This makes connection locations on opposite ends of the map much closer/faster

 

[DirtyFinger]

that ... and me and some other guy built way too much in that world.

anyway, i too hope notch is going to make the nether a bit more interesting, though.
If there would at least be dungeons or rare minerals to mine, along with some serious hazards...

 

[Maniacal]

Damn the lag and java error is still going on :/

 

[ZeletDude]

^^
Ditto..

 

[croxis]

fixed. Sorry about that it seems like I can't get any days downtime anymore. Always someones darn birthday or me graduating or mothers day or something

Hi everyone ....

I just found out about Minecraft couple weeks ago (amazing game!).

Through the "Minecraft" thread, I found out about the server/world here.

I guess I should thank Croxis for running the server for the game....thankyou !

My Minecraft ID is: IkiiWikii (ImperialGuard was taken )

I was told it was okay to join the server, so I've staked out a piece of land, and am starting to build my Mountain Retreat (hope that's okay!)...... look forward to seeing ya'll there !

Cheers

 

[croxis]

Hope to catch you on at some point

 

[TopDog]

Hey. Whats going on at the moment? I can never seem to connect. And how do I get from the city world back to world 4?

I dont understand what is going on!

 

[DirtyFinger]

easiest way would be typing this in the chat: /spawn

 

[ImperialGuard]

I was curious to know what people use to play the game.....

Are you using the client program, or playing via the browser ?


I seem to have problems sometimes when using the client program. I will be playing fine, and then all-of-a-sudden the game just disappears from the computer (program shuts down..)

Playing in the browser seems to work fine.

Anyone using the client program? Any tips/tricks you've discovered to keep it stable?

I made sure my Java was up-to-date, but I only have 32-bit installed. Not sure if there's any advantage etc.. to installing 64-bit?

thanks in advance

 

[croxis]

Both programs are identical actually.

You should have 64 bit if you are running a 64 bit os.


Just rebooted server

If you are having a problem where the game goes black and you have to quit and start it again then you need to set your view distance to Normal, works for almost everyone. Also I recommend changing they key for view distance from F to something you are less likely to press, like P. I have no idea why Notch thought F was a good key for view distance, because it isn't.

F for fog.

But yes, I sometimes slip and hit F, and I have to reset it again.

 

[Maniacal]

Fog is the view distance limit.

 

[The_Tyrant]

The server is down

 

[croxis]

Just rebooted

 

[croxis]

Static map (mostly) updated

Tomorrow morning I will be updating the server to Ubuntu 11.04 -- Natty. This process should take about an hour.

 

[Maniacal]

The_tyrant, I am completely and utterly unhappy with you building a highway through my town without permission, asking or any kind of god damn common courtesy. Since joining this server you have done nothing but disrespect the area my friends and I have been working in and I will NOT tolerate it or the griefing. The highway has been removed and you have a good while to think on what you did. Your claims shall also be removed along with the two landmarks you placed on my town. However,unlike you I shall not be removing the landmarks on your town like you did with mine!

EDIT: I've also received complaints about you from other players as well.

EDIT2: Picture Rubrum took of part of it, which is also right in front of his house and view. If the picture doesn't work try a different browser and blame SimonL (Rubrum)

Spoiler :

EDIT3: If ZeletDude and Fullreloaded want a road/train track to their place I will be happy to help build it, around the other side of my town.

EDIT4: Picture fixed.
