Linux Minecraft; Official Bit-tech server

Yup, XM's updating his server today though, so survival will be up and running.

There's also a new mob and some other goodies.

 

Not forgetting ... cake!

EDIT: And I'm sure I've just seen some fishies too.

 

Minecraft Beta 1.2 is live. All servers need to be updated to 1.2.

New features:
* Note blocks (right click to tune, trigger to play)
* 15 wool dyes
* A new water dwelling mob
* New tree types
* Reeds magically turned into sugar canes. They still make paper.
* A bunch of new crafting recipes
* One secret useful block
* One secret pretty block
* Cake
* AND MOAR, probably. I forget!

Bugfixes:
* Paintings work in multiplayer
* Disconnecting while riding no longer keeps the player in the world
* A bunch more state is properly synched in multiplayer
* Fixed colors going weird on PowerPC
* Fixed a horrible chunk reload loop in singleplayer
* Fixed most lighting bugs in newly generated SMP maps
* Falling sand behaves better in SMP
* Fixed a few crash on load level bugs

 

Ok so im running around like an idiot but i cant see any...
Is it basically just new tree shapes rather then new types of tree/wood?

Survival server is updated..

It is running bare though, no hey0... not a big deal, but it broke spawn a little. The buttons on the door do not work....

BTW loving the hello world

 

I got only one comment to beta 1.2: Yay!!

 

Can I get the IP for the survival server please?

 

and the wool - thing sounds really great!! Looking forward to checking it out!

 

Creepers aren't a huge threat to me. They sit outside of my fort, quietly waiting. However, when you decide to run through the dark, leading all of the creepers, like some kind of super-macabre pied piper, I will kill you, just so that the creepers do not explode and do damage to my base. This means you, pcclan.

DarkLord, I will share some of the loot from my mine. This means some. Some is well-known to mean less than all.

==EDIT==

We also briefly mentioned generating a new map. Should we have a poll, or something?

 

i second this motion. everyone please remember to be extremely careful when entering/exiting other peoples houses. i have no problems if you take to my place for shelter for the night, just dont get it blown to bits during your comings and goings

 

Oh, I see I have a new neighbour! Did you leave any space between the buildings so people can get past

EDIT: No. You didn't. In all this worlds space you built a small garden right up on top of my edge wall. Gee, thanks for that.

And to the person who wanted to experiment with redstone on my double doors, please don't, I had to remove it all because you completely closed the entrance.

 

Not really a fan of people who resort to childish acts of griefing over a couple blocks of minerals, so doesn't really matter to me.

 

did you guys just get booted too?

 

We must have an unwelcome addition to our crowd Those two dispensers filled with arrows in my house were aimed at people (i.e. me) coming through the door with pressure plates behind them. Thankfully I spawned behind them and removed them.

Whoever it is, you can **** off.

Also, I removed the big wall on the garden next to me and modified it a bit. I left a note near the door to explain why. I hope you don't mind.

 

Oh no!
Just read that hmod will no longer be developed, and will instead be replaced by something else called "bukkit" whenever that is ready. Also it seems that MPUK will keep their servers running at version 1.1 until bukkit is ready. This means the current hiatus might go on for a while, so I will be downgrading my MC client to version 1.1 in order to get back online.

 

So im running back to my little hole, full of gear i just salvaged over night, just about to jump through my front door, i hear a noise, i look up....



Since when do creepers spawn in trees, doh

 

Latest news in the hey0 forum is that it will be updated (see here). So if MPUK have already decided to wait, that is a bit overreacting is it not?

Ow well, this whole hey0/Bukkit-thing was a train wreck waiting to happen and so it did

I guess we can only wait and see where this goes

 

Now why on earth would we do that?

In other news, the skeleton trap/arrow factory still won't let me in since the patch. I think it might be affected by the (now broken) hey0 spawn protection.

 

+10! This map is fantastic and the builds in it are lovely. Some lovely tall hills, epic views and deep water.

Has anyone seen any of the new trees btw?

Also - we found out earlier you can make coloured sheep, but unfortunately they don't stay around because animals are dynamic

 

Survival server going down for hardware upgrade. Will probably be back with a Nether-server also...

I'll inform you later.

I know server to server travel is possible with a hey0 plugin (so not yet), but probably not with the keeping of ones inventory. Which would make the whole thing pretty pointless. I'll check that out.
