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...

I am using MagicLauncher for using Optifine and works fine for me :)

 

 

On another note if anyone has some Iron they want to donate to me i would be more than thankful :)

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.

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off

      By cork1958 · Posted

      Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By tboggs13 · Posted

      Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.
