We could really use some screenshots of some of the builds on any of the worlds. Anyone up for the task?

I did do a load but then looking back at them, the HUD look a bit too much.

So then i read F1 removes the HUD, so i will redo them. They are going to be 1.5MB each. I might have to convert them to jpg, that should make them smaller.

Someone go to the end (ender trap) and knock a few blocks out of that area where its flooding now. Don't knock a hole in the floor though.

I'm being kicked constantly for flying (or retarded

I guess it should've stayed hidden :p

^ which means waiting with the client update until the server and all plugins are updated. Wait for Timan to tell you it's safe to update to 1.5.

Any idea for an ETA after release or? Havent played MC before this, usually it takes days? weeks? months? centuries?

Yes it does seem to be down. Usually it comes back in 10-15 minutes.

Is it just me or does the backup go on forever and while it is working it lags the server and prone to crashing.

Yesterday i got kicked twice when the backup started and the server was unreachable for about 20 minutes.

Yeah, sometimes the backup handler breaks things; I had a similar issue on my old Server, thankfully I had the interval set to once every 24 hours. But I understand why Neowin needs to backup often.

Is it a timed interval?

It has always felt random to me. Like when a certain amount of blocks are removed/placed it starts a backup.

Always seems to do it at the worst possible time for me either way. :laugh:

Yeah it was every 10-15min or so before, Timan already slowed it down to once every 30min or so. But even on crashes back when i login i'm where i was (or very close) and not at places when the backup was taken :/ But I have noticed little lag during backups since the resource expansion :)

Working on it

Cool.

While your around, any ETA for 1.5?

Oh and if you get to it, please spawn 2 or 3 ender dragons :D

Oh and it was yesterday i think when anad and bsarmir where online (maybe during the night or evening before) when the map already started having issues, failed to load entirely on IE, and it basically crashed when i tried to zoom in or move around the map. Turned into a black screen.

Maybe somewhat usefull, maybe not :)

the eta for 1.5 will depend on when bukkit can get a stable 1.5 server out (or beta depending) and if any plugins being used break with said update

so I'd guess 3 weeks to a month and a half after 1.5 goes final till the neowin server can update

    • VS Code 1.123 introduces massive upgrades for persistent AI developer workflows

      By zikalify · Posted

      VS Code 1.123 introduces massive upgrades for persistent AI developer workflows by Paul Hill Microsoft has just released Visual Studio Code 1.123 alongside its annual developer conference, Build 2026. This release, as always, has a heavy focus on advanced AI agent integration and making the built-in browser more robust. Notably, this update brings big sync changes that keep your AI agents persistent across sessions. With this update, VS Code now supports cross-machine syncing for chat histories, touched files, repository contexts, and related PRs via GitHub accounts, tying users even more into Microsoft’s developer ecosystem. This update also introduces the new /chronicle command that allows you to query past sessions using natural language, generate instant standup reports, and get personal productivity insights. Microsoft has also made some improvements to network-dependent operations, it explains: “When a terminal command that is run by a local agent requires access to domains that are not configured as allowed domains, the command is automatically retried inside the sandbox with unrestricted network access. After that, if it still fails, it falls back to unsandboxed execution. This allows network-dependent operations such as git fetch to finish, while keeping filesystem protections in place.” Microsoft has not stopped there; in this update, it also allows developers to drag, drop, and pin multiple agent sessions side-by-side for easy code comparisons in real-time. It also introduces the Research Agent, accessible via /research. This is a read-only, depth-optimized tool that gets data from the web, local codebase, and GitHub to give you a Markdown report on complex APIs or unfamiliar code. Now, let’s talk about the integrated browser and some security enhancements. VS Code 1.123 features enhanced screenshot capture tools that allow for targeted Area Screenshots and Full Page Screenshots to send layout context instantly to AI chat. The address bar has also been revamped, supporting favorite pages and tab management. Finally, on the security front, this update introduces a safety-first two-hour delay on third-party extension auto-updates to safeguard against compromised or buggy releases. This release is now available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. If you have VS Code, keep an eye out for the update availability notification. If you still don’t have VS Code, you can get it here.
    • New Surface Pro with Qualcomm Snapdragon X2 leaks ahead of announcement

      By dirtyvu · Posted

      I'm hoping with the Surface Pro 12, I can use either USB-C for my Xreal One Pro glasses. With my Surface Pro 11 OLED X Elite, I have to plug them into the top port. The bottom port will power it, but nothing shows on the screen. Maybe it's my setting. When I plug in the glasses, I have it output only to the glasses. So maybe I need to turn on both displays with it in the top port, then switch the glasses to the bottom port and set it to output only to the glasses. And then hopefully Windows remembers the settings for either the top port and bottom port (one of the awesome features of Windows where it remembers the exact configuration when plugging in external monitors.

      Forgive my ignorance, but the only difference I see here is that a USB-A is now a USB-C, so there are two of them. For the modern age (and I'd argue since 2020), most products would now come with USB-C as an option, if not the default. Display, charging, devices, etc on TWO connectors, sometimes all combined! So having 2 of those powerful ports is great for something this size! Meanwhile my Surface Pro (5) has a single USB-A port which I cannot even get display out to, instead relying on some Surface Connect dock which I don't have. That is a poor experience, not to mention expensive and not compatible with other devices. Thank God USB-C is mainstream!

      wow. that color finally comes to Surface Pro. was always a little jelly when a friend had the sandstone Surface Laptop. I wonder how different this dune is from the sandstone. I'll be getting the dune version. always thought black and platinum were a little boring. I'll still have access to my blue Surface Pro 11 as it'll be a hand-me-down.
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By +samw61 · Posted

      Looks a very subjective aren't they!? I like its simple design. I love the way Apple designs their products with function over form, minimalization, and simplicity over cluttered complex designs. Many, not all, of their products follow this trend, and the device becomes a tool rather than dominating the space. I do not however like their OS. I have never bought a Apple product, and while I'd consider the Neo for my wife, I am hoping there are better alternatives out there when her failing MacBook Pro 2017 finally stops. Fischer-Price is famously plastic, garish, and poorly made. Basically you're describing the Window Laptops the Neo competes against! This is how product design should be, and what Apple have often followed in recent years: https://tenprinciples.design/
