Question for you all that frequent the server

 

When the Nether update comes out and we get our Paper server switched to it would we want to reset the Nether so all the new blocks and environments are easily accessible or does anyone have builds in there they dearly care about?

 

edit: just realized the update actually came out today lol; but the question still stands. It'll probably be a few days or so before Paper updates to support the new version anyway so there's time to discuss 🙂

ISTR that the new version of Minecraft supports dimensions in that you can extra on top of the usual overworld, nether and end dimensions. It might be worth seeing if you can add the existing nether under a different name if there's bits in there that people really care about.

I've never known Minecraft to natively support extra dimensions outside of using a plugin or mod and haven't heard anything that it was being added natively but I will look into it if people wish 🙂

Not sure if the custom portals are part of this update.  They have been working on them, but last i saw they were a w.i.p. and only generated worlds based of generation files. 🤔

TBH, i dont think there is many things in the nether that as been built, only structure ive seen s Lous pillar of fences in diffrent colours, aprt from that seen nothing else, myself and jessicajm have nothing in neither so yeah a reset will be fine :)

Thanks guys; I'll still take a backup of the Nether folder in case anyone ever wants it restored or wants a copy but once I'm able to upgrade the server I'll go ahead and reset it. It's a rather substantial change to the Nether so I definitely think it's worth the reset to the dimension.

For what it's worth, I had a play with custom dimensions for vanilla Minecraft using the generator at https://misode.github.io/worldgen/ and I was able to generate two nether dimensions in the same game. The problem I had though was that they both used the global seed so it would've caused issues with new chunks anyway.

Hey guys, I checked last night before bed and 1.16.1 builds are rolling in now for Paper so I'll be updating the server tonight when I get off work.

 

I haven't checked if any of our plugins have been updated yet or will even need an update so some of them may or may not work out of the gate.

@Brandon H I'm able to log in, looks like i triggered windows update so in 10 mins the server will restart and hopefully you can access it after the updates :) 

yep it's letting me connect now. not sure what was up earlier.

 

Server is updated now and Nether reset. I'll see if any plugins need updated tomorrow.

 

Let us know if there are any issues with the server folks :)

I popped on the server last night, and had a wonder around the Nether. All seems OK, and I managed to upgrade a few bits of Diamond armour too. :D Might have to set up a Nether base now and strip mine the Nether. 😮

Can we please disable the plugin that deletes items on the ground? I lost all my stuff because I died and all my items were all over the ground (apparently keep inventory doesn't work in the nether) and by the time I got back to where I died, less than a minute, the plugin had deleted all my items. Given that we have very few people online at any one time, I don't believe that items on the ground are causing any appreciable lag. It would also be great if we could work out why keep inventory isn't working in the nether. I've now lost 3 elytra there.

It looks like someone went overboard with the amount of plugins on the server. I'm going to have a look when I get home later today.

hello

 

that plugin was adjusted a long time ago to not remove needed items and for the timer to only be like every 40 minutes and I have not heard any complaints since.

 

If the clearlagg plugin is really not liked then it can be disabled and I can do that tonight.

yeah, I remember when we made the changes to stop it deleting things like boats, but it deleted all my armour, elytra tools and other stuff I had on me at the time. Honestly I think I was just really unlucky to have died and dropped all my items on top of the nether ceiling 20 seconds before it ran, but I'm not sure how much value it adds given that I only usually see one other person on when I'm on.

    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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/
