official Neowin.net Minecraft Server (Old Server)

[Haggis Veteran]

do all the horses have names or are any that are out on the open free to ride? lol

[Louisifer]

I found a plains biome(where they spawn) not too far up north so soon we will have lots of free horses :D

I don't suppose we could get that web map running again? It was nice to get an overall picture of the world.

[Delete This Account Plz]

Any news on the Nether being fixed?

[ShadowMajestic]

I do hope it fixes the random spawning and despawning animals :/ hurding is useless leash or cage, they are gone on block unload for some reason.

The dynamic map requires a custom server software as it was a plugin for the server. currently we are running Vanilla Minecraft. (stock from Mojang)

[Whitefiver]

Please may I be whitelisted?

 

I was playing occasionally previously.

 

Many thanks,

Trolol, my dog is sitting on a torch :D.

Would anyone be interested in using my Ventrilo server? Its only a small 10-slot that me and a couple buds use for BF3, but if there's any interest I'll open it up to you guys.

been working trying to get a netbook to run the game so i can play it more when i am not at home but the best i can do is 8 FPS right now :( any have any luck getting the game to run better with an intel 4000 graphics card? technically its not much of a netbook here are the specs.

 

Windows 7 Ultimate x64

Intel Mobile Core 2 Solo @ 1.4 Ghz

3Gb DDR 2 RAM

Intel Mobile 4000 Graphics running 1366x768@60HZ 11in Display

250Gb HDD

 

Sadly Optifine has not been updated yet for the latest version of MC so I cannot load that to test it. I am thinking the thing might just be too slow.

Mac Mini Server, Core i7 2.0GHz + Intel 4000. I get about 35 FPS. I think the limitation there is the Processor, not the graphics card.

[LittleNeutrino Veteran]

Yeah, I was thinking that might be the case as it is a single core and a single thread it just cannot push that much data.

nope, dynmape can be used on vanilla servers just fine (the server does need forge installed though)

[Will Ryan]

It is the changes in 1.6 i believe. I personally haven't found it any harder just more zombies are spawning. Apart from that killing them is still as easy as before.

Go mental with torches and that should protect you.

[Haggis Veteran]

I only started getting really into this a few days ago but now find it hard to stop lmao

 

yeah put loads of torches up and you will be fine, i have only come across a few Zombies etc apart from from when i seen a fellow gamers house surrounded by them lol

[Lingwo]

You don't know how addictive the game is until you play it for the first time. You suddenly realise why it is such a massive hit.

Especially the first time.

[ShadowMajestic]

Yeah, I was thinking that might be the case as it is a single core and a single thread it just cannot push that much data.

But MC is multithreaded. Sorta at least. It easily burns through all my 4 cores with lots of stuff around.

His system _should_ be able to run MC, maybe even properly playable with optifine.Which isnt updated to 1.6 yet though.

I lid up a large area on the south side of spawn. The more is lid, the less problems :P and the more mobs in the trap.

 

This ugly thing, the mob trap. Can be used for easy exp or just automatic material grinding. Open for public use. Its close to spawn so it always stays somewhat active with people around (or that's the idea) its just very very ugly. But better than it was.

And can be modified by anyone who wants to make it look a little bit better (i tried, im not so artistic :() just please do not remove any obsidian blocks in there :P

 

 

 

Oh and for those that havent noticed yet. We're back to good ol bukkit with plugins. I'm off to find me a nice home.

[Timan Veteran]

I've added a few plugins so let me know if you notice anything different from the past week.

I guess the thing most people have been asking for is the Map Support.

 

Can you provide a list of what plugins have been added?

 

Thanks

In my experience this doesn't actually do anything with the Client itself, you can allocate more memory to the Java VM but the Minecraft sub-process itself will still only sit around using a few hundred MB. If anything you'll just cause more swapping and actually hurt the performance.

 

This technique is however good for Tekkit/FTB.

I can't check right now - which plug-ins did you add? And is the server on 1.6.2 yet or are you waiting for the official release later today?

[Crisp]

You forgot the map plugin ;)
