The server is now running 1.6.2 with bukkit essentials and backups :)

 

I wasted hours on that new nether spawn! :p

 

its still there, just some reason essentials is making nether spawn location somewhere random

Both the fortress and the newer nether spawn were built around 0,0 so it could be anywhere :laugh: Upside is the nether road to the plains I built is back, wasn't looking forward to building that again :P

Yeah fire can spread now, just ask shadowzz. lol :laugh:

haha, yes thank you :P

 

 

On a different note, Timan can I request http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/silkspawners/ and http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/horsekeep/ for when these mods are available for 1.6.2. Not sure if they are currently.

Is anyone using magic launcher, forge, and reis minimap? The server kicks me whenever I try. Is there a better combination to gets the minimap?

Using Reis Minimap havn't encountered any problems.  Don't use forge or magic launcher. Just using the standard minecraft one.

 

Problem may lie with Forge or Magic Launcher :)

I've changed to using Zans Minimap, like Reis but a bit better I think.


Is there a reason I do not have permission to use a lava bucket?

 

So that we don't all go round 'accidentally' placing lava everywhere and burning all our stuff down.

 

If you absolutely have to place some lava, put the lava bucket in a dispenser and do it that way. Bit of a PITA, but it works.

I've always been very careful with this   :/ I don't know that I can do what I want to do, with a dispenser. I'm trying to fill some glass containers of different shapes that takes a ton of buckets, because they don't fill all the way, and this wasn't on or restricted the other day when I started the project. Also, I don't use wood around the lava. That's disappointing...

Thanks. I was under the impression for some reason that forge was required for Rei's, which was the only reason I was using magic launcher. I'll try just the map.

My house is at spawn, towards the snowy end. Go in there and help yourself to the chest next to the furnace. Some iron in there already smelted. Plus some that isn't. Take what you want.

Just curious but why do people use another launcher than the default one? What is gained by doing this? I wouldn

t have even thought to use another launcher... this a java thing?

there have been 2 reasons to use other launchers 1. some launchers allow multiple instances (which the main launcher now supports partially) 2. easy mod management (especially the ability to add and remove mods that need to be in the jar file)

Read up on branch mining if you want diamonds

It is one of the most effective and easier ways to mine for diamond.

      I don't understand the vision. Do people really want to buy a new computer from Dell with 6 browsers installed? We all keep asking for Microsoft to stop having so much junk on their OS, and adding a bunch of browsers seems to go against that. Ideally, we would just be asked what browser we want during OOBE but Google is just going to pay Dell a bunch of money to include Chrome. Additionally, would you want your phones to start including all the browsers too when you get them? The only thing I ever wanted was to be able to uninstall IE or edge and I believe you are now able to. I do agree that microsoft needs to chill with their "are you sure you don't want to try edge before you install chrome" ads when going to download chrome.

      The funny thing here is that like 70% or so of the web browser users use 'Google Chrome' as web browser. What I don't understand is that why on earth would ANYONE choose 'Google Chrome' on Windows when 'Microsoft Edge' is not just better in most things, but it's already there right out of the box for the Windows users. Microsoft Edge has less data collection (yes, that's a fact), less RAM usage and is more optimized for Windows (as it's a Microsoft product) right out of the box. I'm sure you will come with the argument of bloat in Microsoft Edge. Sure, but most of that can be fixed with a simple tool (there are many good ones out there for this). Yes, that require a couple of clicks in the same way as it requires several clicks to install 'Google Chrome'. And I'm sure you really love the 4 GB of AI-slop data 'Google Chrome' is downloading for Chrome without you agreeing to it. Fun right? Sure, the way Microsoft is pushing 'Microsoft Edge' on users might not be the best way of doing it and might need to change. But I would never choose 'Google Chrome' over 'Microsoft Edge' today anyways. I'm sure there was a period back in the days when 'Google Chrome' actually was better in most things, but that period is not today.
    • JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more by David Uzondu Image via JetBrains IntelliJ 2026.1.3 from JetBrains has landed, bringing several highly requested bug fixes that target common UI glitches and terminal rendering issues. If you run tmux inside the integrated terminal, the IDE no longer renders the cursor above the active line. The Markdown preview bug, which was fixed in this release, had annoyed developers for quite some time, as the preview pane failed to render images saved outside the project directory. Instead of displaying the actual image, the IDE simply showed a broken image icon, a problem that stuck around for two years before this update. Over on Windows, developers running WSL can now use wsl.exe to spin up their environments without losing terminal functionality. In previous builds, launching a terminal shell with something like wsl.exe -d ubuntu inside a Windows-based project broke both shell integration and active process detection. Other bug fixes in this release include: An issue where Gradle sync incorrectly reported success as a failure on WSL when using Gradle 9.5.0. A syntax highlighting bug that flagged valid Java for-loop initialization blocks with multiple statements as incorrect. A warning bug that triggered a false non-null local variable alert when using JSpecify annotations. A database generation bug that hid the option to use a DELETE statement instead of a TRUNCATE checkbox. A Kotlin highlighting failure where an assertion error in the Gradle redundant library inspection broke error highlighting. A UI bug where the ComboBox popup lacked a maximum height restriction. A Snowflake syntax error where DataGrip failed to support the "create temp" command. A Svelte syntax parsing failure that incorrectly flagged quotes inside inline expressions. A VCS repository manager deadlock that triggered thread pool exhaustion. A memory leak where the LazyTree component kept all previous versions of a tree in memory. IntelliJ 2026.1.3 is the third bug fix release for the IntelliJ 2026.1 series. The first one landed back in April with a fix for the WSL Python interpreter freeze, another fix for guest participants using Emmet abbreviations, and corrected WildFly server deployment errors.
