looks like its on the pack it was on. if any one wants to play vanilla i have it on a server with only a few plugins, there are quite some people on there but they are a good comunity

how many are playing on the current server?

 

personally I do not care for CrackPack and it seems some others agree as well.

I put together a good pack on 1.10.2 that has some good mods but is still low end friendly that we could try but no one really responded much.

 

Maybe we should put something to a vote? I'm not sure how active the server is right now and how many like it as it is currently.

I don't have a lot of time to play Minecraft these days. I'll leave it up to you to figure out what you want. As for setting it up, you can always ping @Louisifer - he has the necessary permissions as well.

I'd prefer something closer to vanilla. I played on the server a bit - with the "Crackpack" but felt overwhelmed by all the items, tools, and blocks.

Suggestion: I can create a new 1.11.2 survival world later so that there is a server running until you have made up your minds as to how to proceed.

 

Yes/no/maybe? Objections?

Well me and my daughter ain't played on the sever for awhile, but i do agree the lag can be bad and some of the mods installed in crackpack are pretty useless and pointless, im up for a server reset with Brandon H's Pack.

 

Like he said it will be more stable, will get updated and be running latest Minecraft.

 

I say RESET baby!!!!! 

 

http://www.technicpack.net/modpack/neowincraft.935039 for the Win :)

 

AS for creating a 1.11.2 survival world for the time being, will be pretty pointless, just install brandon's pack see how it goes :)

Ok then.

@Brandon H: any hints as to how to set up server and client? I see the server is simply a .zip file, so I assume you unpack it and run a .bat file. I'm at work for another 2.5 hours and can't do anything until then.

yeah the server is as expected (has sponge so it has many commands you're used to from bukkit)

 

the modpack is through TechnicLauncher. it's hidden so throw in the link from the "download pack" button into the launcher search bar and it will come right up :)

Is Curse still required to play with the new pack? Or do I need another manager to download and play?

this pack was created using the Technic Launcher

@Louisifer is the whitelist still present on the server? if so can you make sure I am whitelisted? i'll probably be on when i get off work :) (Minecraft ID: Brando212)

we always copy the most recent whitelist over, you are good to go. :)

+1, glad it's not just me.

odd. anything show in the console if you unhide it before launching? if there's a problem mod I can see if there's an update or just remove it :)

 

Make sure you're both on Java 8 as well and you will want to allow Technic Launcher to use at least 3 or 4gbs of ram (leaving the default at 1gb does sometimes crash on launch i noticed and not just with my pack, but upping to at least 3gb runs stable)

I have Java 8, but only 32bit installed.

 

Got it working by installing 64bit and upping the ram to 3GB (Y)

yeah it's hard to run modpacks on a 32bit anymore because even light mods tend to eat up ram (pains/downsides of java)

what about those old world downloads?

Most worlds exist except world 3 (the one with a fort at spawn) I can look into hosting some of the older ones on the weekend

    • Nobody is buying a PS5 only for playing Until Dawn 2. Their loss.
    • If you actually used it instead of responding like a petulant child you might be surprised. I switched from Google some time ago and have been very satisfied.
    • I am one of the first people to use the DXVK technology. In the channel below you can see some videos that I have made using this technology, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey. https://www.youtube.com/@nahum7995/videos Assassin's Creed Odyssey experienced several bugs and technical issues during its first months after release. It launched with its own fair share of funny but frustrating glitches. I ran it on DXVK 9 days after its release and I played it for many hours but didn't see a single significant bug on Linux. Assassin's Creed Odyssey is widely celebrated for pushing the franchise in bold new directions and specifically for nailing several elements better than any other title in the AC series: Player Choice & Branching Narrative, The Mercenary & Cultist System, Mythological Integration, Overpowered Combat Abilities, Open World Exploration But what I'm trying to point out is that this game wasn't quite playable on most windows systems, until a few months after its release when most of the bugs were fixed. However, on Linux it ran completely flawless from day one, although DXVK had seen little development and refinement at the time. What do you think the situation will be in 2026 now that most bugs and glitches of DXVK have been completely eliminated? This is information from Google about these situations that I am quoting. In many cases, using DXVK (a translation layer that converts DirectX 9, 10, or 11 into Vulkan) can result in more stable frame times and higher performance than native Windows rendering. This happens primarily by bypassing driver overhead and multithreading draw calls that were previously restricted to a single CPU core. Older APIs (like DirectX 9 and 11) are largely single-threaded on the CPU side. DXVK translates these calls to Vulkan, which is highly multi-threaded. This reduces CPU-bound stuttering on weaker processors. In certain cases, GPU manufacturers (especially AMD) have significantly better and more modern Vulkan drivers than they do for legacy DirectX. Vulkan gives developers—and in this case, the translation layer—closer control over how resources are held in VRAM. This can prevent micro-stutters and sudden frame drops during chaotic gameplay. Yes, certain games, particularly older DirectX 9 to 11 titles, can run with fewer crashes on DXVK than on native Windows. By intercepting DirectX draw calls and translating them into the modern, highly efficient Vulkan API, DXVK bypasses the limitations and poor driver support that cause instability in aging game engines. PlayStation 1, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 can be easily and perfectly emulated on Linux. In fact, modern Linux emulators offer high-performance upscaling, widescreen patches, and automatic controller mapping out of the box.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 PlayStation 1/2/3 games look drastically better on Linux thanks to resolution upscaling. Furthermore, it is also a fact that you cannot play many fun games on Windows either, isn't it? - The Nintendo Switch has an extensive library of exclusive games. - PlayStation has an extensive library of exclusive games - Android has "mobile-exclusive" games, meaning they are exclusive to mobile devices (iOS and Android) and aren't available on PC or consoles. And finally, it is also the case that in the next five years there will be games that millions of people will say you absolutely must play and that they want to play this specific game that released a few days ago. However, the other side of this story is that currently, absolutely no one cares that they cannot play these upcoming games right now.
