Neowin's Official Minecraft Server


Recommended Posts

We're in the process of getting a server together for minecraft, and I need to find out from you the community. What type of server you think we should have. Survival or Creative

Also need to see how much actual interest there is for this so we know how many slots to have.

Thanks

I'd say survival, but only if a mod would be able to get rid of endermen, i hate them.

When I build stuff I want stuff to remain where I placed it ffs...

Worst mob ever, and I thought creepers were annoying haha.

So, if endermen can't be removed, I'll go with creative. :3

if there is a survival server, is there any method of removing hunger? i generally play creative to get away from the hunger bar.

Yepp, another big annoyance.

Meh... Somehow, Minecraft beta was better (pun, ba-dum-tsshh) due to all that. :3

when i ran a little server for me and my friends at home for a little while, I used a bukkit plugin called "Mobs" that gave me complete control over mobs, i made it so endermen wouldn't pick up blocks and creepers wouldn't explode, and i turned off ghasts completely

so yeah, I'd definitely recommend this plugin http://dev.bukkit.or...rver-mods/mobs/ best mob control plugin i've used

edit: and the great thing about this plugin is if you disable a mob completely you can still spawn it in manually with eggs and commands

  • Like 1

use the rule of

/gamerule mobGriefing false

that will disable creepers from blowing up stuff but still damaging you. Not sure if it effects the endermen from moving blocks, wither destroying blocks etc...

K, so far looks to be survival.

Any mod suggestions, would like to keep this low, but of course cause of griefers (this is neowin of course), will need some permission based ones.

bukkit has plenty of plugins to help against griefing so just take your pick :)

and once again, I'd like to suggest tekkit

it'd be nice to have a good tekkit community for once :)

I know it's only me and Brando212 that has suggested Tekkit, but it just adds so much more without making it seem like a totally different game. I think for a tech site it's the obvious way to go. ;)

    • Could you come up with a slightly less depressing background for Tux instead of that gray gradient? Doesn't have to be cheerful, just less of a downer...
    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.
