official Neowin.net Minecraft Server (Old Server)

[Lingwo]

We could really use some screenshots of some of the builds on any of the worlds. Anyone up for the task?

I did do a load but then looking back at them, the HUD look a bit too much.

So then i read F1 removes the HUD, so i will redo them. They are going to be 1.5MB each. I might have to convert them to jpg, that should make them smaller.

[M1ckyB]

Well then i shall continue my search.. Thanks

They do exist I have 2 cats, they have a low spawn rate so it can take a loooong time to find one.

[M1ckyB]

And then i actually found some.. Was able to tame one then it got killed somehow.. :(

Someone go to the end (ender trap) and knock a few blocks out of that area where its flooding now. Don't knock a hole in the floor though.

I'm being kicked constantly for flying (or retarded).

[Neyht Member]

also do it from underneath or you'll get the same.

Hey, can a Mod add: ASilentWar & Cosel_Ranger to the Citizen list. Managed to convince them to actually buy the game JUST for this Server!

^ which means waiting with the client update until the server and all plugins are updated. Wait for Timan to tell you it's safe to update to 1.5.

I guess it should've stayed hidden :p

Any idea for an ETA after release or? Havent played MC before this, usually it takes days? weeks? months? centuries?

Guess I should say that I don't need anyone knocking any holes in my ender trap now that I'm free. :rolleyes:

[ShadowMajestic]

Is it just me or is it been down for at least a day?

map not working and when trying to connect just get a "Can't reach server"

[CPressland]

Hey Guys,

Is the Server down right now? I can't seem to get on.

Thanks

Chris

[Lingwo]

Yes it does seem to be down. Usually it comes back in 10-15 minutes.

Is it just me or does the backup go on forever and while it is working it lags the server and prone to crashing.

Yesterday i got kicked twice when the backup started and the server was unreachable for about 20 minutes.

Yeah, sometimes the backup handler breaks things; I had a similar issue on my old Server, thankfully I had the interval set to once every 24 hours. But I understand why Neowin needs to backup often.

Is it a timed interval?

It has always felt random to me. Like when a certain amount of blocks are removed/placed it starts a backup.

Always seems to do it at the worst possible time for me either way. :laugh:

Yeah it was every 10-15min or so before, Timan already slowed it down to once every 30min or so. But even on crashes back when i login i'm where i was (or very close) and not at places when the backup was taken :/ But I have noticed little lag during backups since the resource expansion :)

Working on it

Cool.

While your around, any ETA for 1.5?

Oh and if you get to it, please spawn 2 or 3 ender dragons :D

Oh and it was yesterday i think when anad and bsarmir where online (maybe during the night or evening before) when the map already started having issues, failed to load entirely on IE, and it basically crashed when i tried to zoom in or move around the map. Turned into a black screen.

Maybe somewhat usefull, maybe not :)

[Timan Veteran]

Its back up, when it goes down just send me a pm.

[Brandon H Supervisor]

Cool.

While your around, any ETA for 1.5?

the eta for 1.5 will depend on when bukkit can get a stable 1.5 server out (or beta depending) and if any plugins being used break with said update

so I'd guess 3 weeks to a month and a half after 1.5 goes final till the neowin server can update

[puma1]

Great I updated mine to 1.5 by accident and now cannot get onto the server.. anything I can do?
