Modacity Minecraft Server

[rossmum]

Is the server dead or at a different address now?

[Cortexian]

Dead along with the Halo CE servers.

jcap didn't post his desk and look what happens.

[arbiter901]

So when is this server going to get updated? Theres already a beta build for bukkit which should be suitable for playing.

[arbiter901]

Why is this not updated yet?

[ASPWolf]

Why is this not updated yet?

Mhmm.

[Cortexian]

King_nothing_ does all the MC adminning now mostly. I could do it but :effort:

[arbiter901]

We serriously need an active admin in here.

[king_nothing_]

Gonna wait for at least an R1 build of 1.4 to come out. I don't feel like going through all the shit that comes with updating to an early dev build (plugins not working, acting weird, having to find replacement plugins, etc.)

[arbiter901]

Could I get a list of the plugins running on the server?

So, whats new in Minecraft? Is it worth jumping into again? :D

[jcap]

King is beginning to realize the reason I delegated him the responsibility of maintaining the server one year ago...

[Cortexian]

And the reason I let jcap take over hosting it in the first place.

[arbiter901]

At this stage 1.5 will come out before 1.4 even has a recommended bukkit build. Seriously Mojang?

[arbiter901]

Having some problems with mcMMO and virtualshop. so definetly not stable enough to update.

[arbiter901]

CraftBukkit 1.4.5-R0.2 seems stable enough (even though its not a recommended build) bassed on my tests, and other users comments.

Think its worth a try?

[Skittlez]

Will the server be updated anytime soon? I really like it and don't want to have to find another one.

[arbiter901]

So when is this getting updated? All those plugins are stable, and working.
Jcap please consider adding that guy I mentioned as a second admin. You probably know him from the 1.7 world days. I assure you he will not let anyone down.

[p0lar_bear]

I've stepped in here. No promises on consistent activity, though.

We've updated to CB 1.4.6-R0.2 and i'm working out a list of exceptions caused by failed plugin loads. Also, the whitelist got wiped, it would seem.

In addition, there's no 1.4-compatible version for the following plugins:
WorldGenerationControl
MinecartMania Reborn
Village Protection
Gambling
TheEndAgain
mcMMO
GiantTrees
VirtualShop

[arbiter901]

None of those those plugins except maybe the virtualshop and Minecartmania (i think) came much in handy anyway. Good thing I moved all my things out of it.

EDIT : mcMMO did have acouple of useful features, but was abit buggy on the version the server was runnoing on last.

Ah, thanks. I was about to test using an outdated version of mcMMO but if that last version was bugged, I don't think it'd work any better.

Server is up and seems stable!

e: I made a wooden axe and it doesn't work. I keep getting some BS about first and second points in the chat when I left or right-click with it...

[arbiter901]

Since the whitelist was wiped here is my username: ghost0009001

[p0lar_bear]

Server didn't even use the whitelist, i just didn't have an entry in PermissionsEX. SO that's all good.

[arbiter901]

Not having a whitelist sounds abit risky.

[p0lar_bear]

Not having a whitelist sounds abit risky.

There is in that we don't use the white-list.txt file. The PermissionsEX plugin handles that instead.

[EX12693]

username: ex12693

E: When I logged in it wiped everything in my hotbar. This is shit.

[arbiter901]

Everything is working fine now.

[p0lar_bear]

Yeah, there was a problem with running PermissionsEX and its ModifyWorld feature at the same time; I think they were outdated.

Whitelist/permissions seem to be in order now as of this afternoon. Happy crafting, folks, and happy new year!

[jcap]

If anyone lost anything from either the shop or something else, ask p0lar to /give you whatever you think you lost. Please be honest.

[arbiter901]

I think king is the only one that used the shop more than anyone else as a unlimited storage source.

[EX12693]

I lost all the shit in my hotbar. Not really a big loss though.

So p0lar, where's your place?

[Sanctus]

Holy shit I entered the server for the first time yesterday in a couple months and Ghost was there! But then he immediately left :((
Also is the portal to the new world not working or am I doing it wrong?

[arbiter901]

Try /world 3

[arbiter901]

Server is dead.

[p0lar_bear]

Sorry, got wrapped up in other projects.

Looks like Minecraft got an update, and Craftbukkit got some too. I'll bring it up to date soon, promise.

[p0lar_bear]

Ok, I updated CB to v1.4.7-R0.2, whatever dev build was latest.

All of the plugins seem to be working so far.

So, here's what's happened since I took up administration:

We now have a new world, since the old world was probably plundered to hell as it's been around forever. It's a large biome world with a very wide border, and you can get to it by entering one of the marked portals by the old world spawn. It has its own Nether and The End. The new world spawn town has a bank (recreated from scratch based on the other bank), general store and armory that deal in iron tools/weapons/armor, restaurant that sells steaks, porkchops, and apples, and a jail for bad players. This area is all protected by an admin land claim, and there's a natural cave underneath it, so there may be a chance that some of the underneath can't be mined because of the claim - not sure how the grief prevention plugin works.

I'll be tweaking permissions more over time to try and make sure that this plays more and more like a true Survival server. It's probably really possible to just warp out of danger and whatnot, and that's not what it's all about.

I'ma start building a rail system once I dig up enough redstone and iron to connect points of interest. So far I've got a small wool farm to the east of the spawn town with a chest shop and will connect those. If you want money, you can sell iron ore and tools to the shops at the spawn town, or you can sell wool or iron ore/ingots to my little farm.

[EX12693]

Since the new world is so large, why don't we build the rail system in the nether? Also, the nether may have to be regenerated as the 1.5 update will add nether quartz, which would be pretty useful.

[p0lar_bear]

How does one regenerate a world without destroying it outright?

Also, I understand building a rail system in the Nether because of the world scaling thing. Y'all can do that if you want and I'd donate materials if I have any to people doing that. But I, personally, will be building it on the overworld purely out of preference.

In a similar vein, I had gathered a ton of rails, gold, iron, redstone, lapis, and even a goddamned diamond from a mineshaft the other day. GUESS WHAT HAPPENED TO IT ALL?! (http://t3hp0larbear.tumblr.com/post/41466050990/300-done-with-minecraft-right-now)

Oh, I'll also be re-enabling mcMMO and seeing if anything breaks in the coming days.

[EX12693]

Uh that's minecraft bro. Also, you mined a block you were standing on. :golfclap:

Also, building a rail system in the overworld would cost 8x more resources than it would in the nether. Though I suppose for short trips, overworld rail is more practical. Can minecarts go through Nether portals?

[ThePlague]

Server just crash?

[p0lar_bear]

I've updated the server and plugins to the latest 1.4.7 Bukkit recommended build.

Before the update, Bukkit itself was having issues with Nether portals - it would just convert coordinates and then drop you into the other world instead of checking for and creating portals if needed. I think it's working now, but I'm not entirely sure. Just be sure to test new portals by entering them with empty inventories before actually using them, and expect to be dropped from up high, usually into a lava pool. If it doesn't do that for you, lemme know here.

Also I've been playing on another server and there's some ideas I want to steal from them and use, but I'm not even sure if it's worth it since that server's built for 100 people and we can only do 10. :x

[arbiter901]

It can handle more but there's no point.

[ThePlague]

Server needs a serious update :( I miss playing with my awesome house. Could anyone upload the map file?

[arbiter901]

Not until bukkit and plugins get updated.

All previous worlds were posted by king a few pages back.

[ThePlague]

Yeah but I want the old world that was linked to the new one, found a sweet ass cave below my house that was made in the village by spawn.

[arbiter901]

The old world iss still active.

[ThePlague]

Yeah I understand, but i'm on the newest version because of a system upgrade :|

[arbiter901]

Well then downgrade.

[ThePlague]

Had no idea that was possible.

Don't rain the hate, but I was just wondering...
Is this server cracked? Or....

[ThePlague]

RAIN HATE

HATE

What do you mean by cracked?

[p0lar_bear]

Don't rain the hate, but I was just wondering...
Is this server cracked? Or....

The server is a release of Bukkit 1.4.7. You get the jar from here (http://dl.bukkit.org/).

[ASPWolf]

So, is the server down or something?

[Patrickssj6]

Would like to join as well.

[p0lar_bear]

Honestly that's gonna fall on someone else now, sorry. I haven't had the time, energy, or desire to pick up Minecraft at all to even dink with locally, let alone administrate the server.

[arbiter901]

So whose the next admin?

[arbiter901]

So is this going to get updated? It would be a shame to let such a great server die

[Skittlez]

Can someone like just please PLEASE please update the server and make it work?

[chrisk123999]

I'd be willing to help maintain / update the server. If whoever owns the server sends me a PM, we could figure something out.

[ThePlague]

I could too.

[ASPWolf]

I could as well, but at this point it doesn't really matter who's admin to me.

As for pasting old builds into the new world...here's how we're going to do it this time. I'm not going to make the schematic files for you. Someone saying "hey, copy and paste that one building from that one world for me" does not exactly make my life easy. I've been inactive for too long to know where people's builds are. Besides that, it's just too time consuming for me to do this all myself. So, this time, since you all now have access to the old worlds, you need to use Single Player Commands (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/94310-125-single-player-commands-v322-official-download/) or MCEdit (https://github.com/mcedit/mcedit/downloads) to save your build as a schematic file yourself. If you do that, you can give it to me and I'll paste it into the new world wherever you want. One condition, though: you must remove all chests from a build you want pasted. Since everyone is currently allowed to carry their materials over from the old worlds to the new world in-game, pasting in chests could possibly result in people duping their mats.
Anyone still have these laying around? All those links seem to be dead.

Hey hey!
It’s time for us to release the first snapshot from the development of 1.6. This version of Minecraft comes with huge changes to the base technology of the game. For instance, starting from Minecraft 1.6, we will build the game for Java 6 instead of Java 5. We are also aiming to raise the required OpenGL version to 2.0 (from 1.2 / 1.3, that Minecraft 1.5 and prior versions are using). Additionally we are working on a new launcher that will support these libraries, and also come with a bunch of new features such as version changing, detailed game settings, and so on.


This snapshot in bullet point form:


Added horses, based on the work of John Olarte (DrZhark), of Mo’ Creatures (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/81771-151-mo-creatures-v508-with-wyverns/) fame
Added hay bales
Added leashes
Added carpets
The “Respiration” enchantment now also helps seeing underwater

[arbiter901]

Seems this server wont be back. Can we at least get the worlds for download?

[Sanctus]

Welp it looks like I'll finally get the only thing I really wanted all along:

CARPETS!!

[El Lobo]

So, 1.6?

[Donut]

You know, I just recently finished a nearly two week long game of minecraft with some friends on their server. This guy installed buildcraft and industrialcraft on his server and invited his friends to come play with him. The idea was that they would get some cool machinery going then my friend and I would spectacularly destroy all of it and put it on youtube for lols (as seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nDqkAa6TtY). For those of you who don't know, industrialcraft has nukes. This would be our tool of choice.

It evolved into me and my friend forming one team and the server owner and his friends forming another. My friend and I decided we were an arm of the Soviet Union and built a secret under ground nuclear base out on an island in the middle of the ocean. The next two weeks were spent in a cold war style arms race with the server owner. We intentionally left deceptive signs, chat messages, and buildings all over the terrain. We also recruited more of our friends to fight for the glorious red army. We had recon missions to scout out the enemy base and steal resources. One of our guys even recorded a whole walk through of the guy's base right under his nose, so when the time came to plant nukes to blow his base up, we knew the layout already.

Finally the time to strike was upon us and we sent 3 of our guys in to plant all sorts of nukes, which we would detonate with the remote dynamite detonator that industrialcraft adds. The guy caught us planting nukes and he managed to break some of them, but it was too little too late. Our nukes exploded and destroyed his base almost entirely. We lost one of our guys from radiation poisoning. Overall, it was a very successful raid and the soviet union emerged victorious from the not-so-cold war.


My point in sharing this story is that playing this type of meta game totally rekindled my love for minecraft. All these new features in 1.6 are cool, but I just have no desire to play because there's no real end goal. Having this enemy that we absolutely had to nuke (believe me, this shit took priority over sleep) and having to think about exactly what we wanted to do and how we were going to do it to achieve victory gave me an adrenaline rush unlike any I've had before. I'm sure most of you guys are more into building, but this shit was tons of fun.

If the modacity minecraft server is stagnating, somebody could turn it into the modacity cold war server. I'll be your comrade all day long there.

[EX12693]

Cool story bro

[ASPWolf]

Stagnating? Seems dead to me.

[Donut]

I wouldn't know because don't play there. Ever. That was my point.
Also, thanks for your contribution to the thread EX!

Yeah, servers been down for some time and I haven't heard anything about it lol.
