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. 🤔

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.

    • [NEWS] Over 105000 games are available to play on Linux.

      By FateTrap · Posted

      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.
    • Flameshot 14.0 RC3

      Flameshot 14.0 RC3 by Razvan Serea Flameshot is a free and open-source, cross-platform tool to take screenshots with many built-in features to save you time. Using Flameshot is as simple as launching, dragging the selection box to cover the area you want to capture, making annotations as needed in on-screen and saving the shot to your computer, all with a very simple and straightforward interface. Flameshot allows users to simply upload their screenshots directly to the cloud in order to easily share it with others. You can upload your image directly to Imgur with a single click and share the URL with others. In-app screenshot editing - You can choose to add an arrow mark, highlight text, blur a section (blur or pixelate an area), add a text, draw something, add a rectangular/circular shaped border, add an incrementing counter number, and add a solid color box with Flameshot's built-in editing tools. Command-line interface (CLI) - Flameshot has several commands you can use in the terminal without launching the GUI via a command line interface. The command line interface lets you script Flameshot and use it as the subject of key binds.

      I found that stability back then was really down to the motherboard manufacturer. Back then i stuck with Microstar motherboards and VIA chipsets as they were ultra reliable. Most stuff was done with jumpers and left little room for user created problems 👍
