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. ;)

    • Exactly. They won't go 100 because current gen consoles are simply too old for any groundbreaking graphics or gaming experience otherwise. They will go with standard (console) price 70 or go with 80 if they really want to go premium. Of course they will have more expensive options too with some useless cosmetics as always.
    • Doesn’t surprise me at all. God is light & He gave us life so it sounds almost logical that we would therefore emit a certain amount of light.
    • This is what I want. Hey Gemini, how do I remove you from all my google products permanently?
    • I would never install install this build before rtm process. only 3 months to go. never install on your daily devices. just wait 3 months.
    • Motrix Next 3.9.6 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project. It has been completely rewritten using Tauri 2, Vue 3, TypeScript, and Rust, while still relying on the powerful Aria2 download engine for high-speed multi-protocol transfers. The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management. Motrix Next features: Multi-protocol downloads — HTTP, FTP, BitTorrent, Magnet, .torrent, ED2K, and Metalink tasks BitTorrent — Selective file download, DHT, peer exchange, encryption controls, metadata caching, GeoIP peer flags, and tracker probing Browser extension integration — Embedded Extension API with independent authentication, download confirmation, smart auto-submit, filename hints, referer/cookie forwarding, and real-time controls (Chrome Web Store · Edge Add-ons) Safe filename handling — Content-Disposition, RFC 2047, non-UTF-8, percent-encoded, and extensionless URL resolution with path traversal sanitization Download organization — Favorite and recent folders, optional file-type categorization, stale-record cleanup, and completed history backed by SQLite Concurrent downloads — Independent controls for active tasks, HTTP connections per server, segments per file, and BT peer limits Speed control — Global and per-task upload/download limits with day-of-week and time-of-day scheduling System integration — Tray operation, optional tray speed display, macOS Dock badge/progress, protocol handlers for magnet://, thunder://, and motrixnext:// Lightweight mode — Destroys the WebView on minimize-to-tray while Rust keeps the engine, task monitor, notifications, history, and extension routing alive Notifications and power options — Native task start/complete/failure notifications, keep-awake during downloads, and optional shutdown after completion Network controls — Scoped proxy support for downloads, app updates, and tracker updates, plus system proxy detection Auto-update channels — Stable, Beta, and Latest Across Channels policies with separate download and install phases Diagnostics — Structured logs, exportable diagnostic ZIPs, database integrity checks, automatic DB rebuild, and Linux GPU rendering fallback Personalization — Light/dark/system theme, 10 color schemes, 26 languages, and first-launch system language detection Motrix Next 3.9.6 changelog: New Features Clipboard management — App-owned copy actions no longer trigger the Add Task auto-detect popup. aria2 input compatibility — Multi-line aria2-style task input is supported for URLs with per-task options such as out=. BitTorrent IPv6 DHT — Added IPv6 DHT support and related configuration. File category URL patterns — File category rules can match URL patterns with validation and localized hints. Task status tags — Added clearer waiting and sharing states for task cards. Download event bridge — Added an aria2 WebSocket event bridge for faster download notifications. Improvements Improved task list transitions and preserved task state during tab switches. Kept RPC origin access enabled for local integrations. Restored AppImage stripping in release builds after beta validation. Added localized preference guidance across supported languages.
