that's one thing i don't get. bukkit was bought 2 years ago by mojang. so why hasn't the vanilla server code just been completely replaced by bukkit by now?

 

they are incorporating a lot of if but they want to have their own native API and mod support. which keeps getting pushed back originally it was supposed to be for 1.7 but now they are saying 1.9

You know what? We're going to switch to Vanilla once 1.8 is released and live without the plugins until this mess is sorted out. 

 

Can I suggest that we wait a week to make sure there are no big bugs? That might even be long enough for a Bukkit version too.

being as there is not really all that much traffic on the server I do not see the harm in just waiting for the plugins to be supported prior to updating the server. Sadly the server traffic issue causes itself as the less people play. the more people dont want to play because of how dead it can be. that is why I find myself on my friends server more often because he doesnt use ours and i would rather play with him and our close friends.

my reason for not getting on the server much (other than to look at people's builds) is because i like to play with mods

 

i've been running a yogscast complete server on my home network for me & a few friends lately and been having fun with it

 

I'd still like to see neowin run a modded server to some extent (direwolf would probably be good to run). it doesn't really need all that more than vanilla, just a bit more ram dedicated to it

Why? We're not resetting the world.

 

With as many new resources as there are going to be and how far away you will have to go to get them i think we should set another vote about restarting the server again. However, this time i think we should make sure to backup the whitelist first.

But it's basically just a few new stone types that are pretty abundant in most locations. So pretty much any land that hasn't been generated will do, and there is plenty of it. Simple matter to either set a Warp somewhere, or decide on a large area that is unused and just regen it. No need for a map wipe, especially as we agreed long ago that it wouldn't be needed.

that is not a bad idea at all just re-render a few hundred chunks to give folks access to the new stuff :P

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.

      In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.

      Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
