MajorGaming.eu's Minecraft Server

Sounds good. Then he can fix the paintings problem (damn it my gallery is nearly finished) and then add more stuff; like finishing the tech-trees.

New update is out:

The client version is now 1.2.4
The server version is now 0.2.6 (mandatory update, there’s been protocol changes)

Bug fix list:

* Swords and other weapons now deal damage properly
* Added proper hurt animations and sounds to mobs and players
* Fixed dead players logging in as invisible ghosts
* Made arrows visible and deal damage
* Hoes now produce proper seeds
* Creepers make noises and animate before exploding
* Explosions animate properly
* No more infinite free arrows
* Server logging now appends to server.log rather than overwriting it
* Buttons and levers (and a few other blocks probably, it’s a general solution) animate properly
* Fixed minecarts (and pigs!) moving twice as fast as they should when ridden.
* The join server screen now remembers the last entered ip
* Increased chunk saving frequency on the server
* Leaving sneak mode no longer triggers a million sounds
* You can now see sneaking players
* Names of sneaking players aren’t visible through walls, and are visible a much shorter distance
* Snowballs!!

Server has been updated to 0.2.6, I'll start checking to see how it works with the Hey0 mod, if it works ok, I'll enable the mod tonight or tomorrow.

Edit:

[edit:]

Server 0.2.6_01 no longer gives everyone 64 snowballs on connecting

Server updated to 0.2.6_01 :rolleyes:

the_syco

Was connected, but then it timed out

Now it's not connecting, only timing out.

Server 0.2.6_01 no longer gives everyone 64 snowballs on connecting

LoL. Was wondering wtf they were.

Sorry about that, try connecting again. You joined just as I had to take it down again to update the server to 0.2.6_01

JustAidan

Timed out again. I think I received two separate updates.

Version 1.2.4_01

Edit: Yep, its a 2nd server and client update right after the first.

Edit2: Lol from Notch's post:

"Server 0.2.6_02 and client 1.2.4_01 now spawn other monsters than ONLY CREEPERS EVERYWHERE"

Still not connecting. Tries to connect for 59 seconds, and then times out

Yah, we are client 1.2.4_01 automatically and Cian needs to update a 2nd time to server 0.2.6_02.

Edit: Of course we could go in now and be swarmed by creepers

Weird, there's three people online at the moment, perhaps try restarting your client??

Edit: Wait don't bother, no ones online, new bug. Looks like we need a 0.2.6_03

JustAidan

Odd, still timing out.

hmm

Edit: going to try deleting all the .minecraft stuff in the application data

Check my previous post, bug with the server software by the looks of things.

Grrrr...

Got in @ 18:56, fell from a great height, respawned, went back, collected most of the stuff, and then glitched midway through the collection, and couldn't collect any more. Gah. Luckily I had stored most of the valuable stuff in a chest :pac:

Yeah, it's a weird bug, happens a short while after server start. Notch said he was gonna check what bugs came up for a while then go home so I'm hoping he's seen this one before heading home!! :eek:

.......NOoOoooOO

I tell you something doesn't want my building finished. I hope paintings work now, then I can finish the library, the reading room and the gallery. The secret (oops) room is done as is the living area. Just need some equipment for storage and to wire up the building a bit.

God damn been nearly a week since i've played properly. Went to play, timing out

JustAidan

Hey Cian, could you send a copy of the world data to me?

Was going to run it through Cartograph to locate some dungeons. I haven't found any at all. Dungeons are 4x4x4 rooms with a mob spawner and chests with loot which can be anywhere underground.

That and I wanted to mark off where people are building so I can go have a look-see.

I found a dungeon in my tunnel. The monster spawner is still there surrounded by candles. It's in a detour I took after my furnaces were I found a massive cave.

Sure, the folder is quite large though, not sure exactly what size but the number of files go into the ten's of thousands so downloading it on my mobile connection isn't an option but I'll give it a whack tomorrow in college.
I looked at Cartographer and could only find a version for windows, I was hoping there might be a command line version for linux, do you if they made one??

Is that the tunnel behind your Megaman statue which is pretty awesome I might add!!

Where abouts was it? Which monster spawned? Did you loot the chests and if so did you find any records or pig saddles ?

Fyi to anyone who doesn't know; the spawner can work through walls provided its dark enough.

I was going to put up a map of the currently generated world and mark where I am, then do it for others. Would make it easy to see where there is space and to plan possible train systems

Behind my megaman statue there's two tunnels. The one with the retr0's gaff sign is my place. Zombies and arrow skeletons spawned out of it I think, mostly zombies. You might have a hard time looking for the spawner, it's agood bit down. Nothing remarkable in the chest when I looted it, some iron, some blocks and some string and an iron bucket.

Ah shame that, there should be anywhere from 10-20 dungeons over the area we currently all are. Actually I might be conservative given the size of the world, hmmm could be up past 50 if people have explored a lot, hence generating more terrain.

Considering the size of this endeavor, the amount of iron we will need, mountains to tunnel through, bridges to build, anti-monster precautions, redstone switching tracks and the fact we get murdered by night we may need to co-ordinate .

Hey0 doesn't work with 0.2.6 either, looks like it'll be another day or two before I can start using it on the server.

And by that time two more patches will be out

cian1500ww

Just restarted the server and it seems to be working, no errors yet anyway.

Cool. Must make more candles, and light up my mines better - dislike looking forward, and seeing a dark abyss.


Oh, and found this: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Crafting VERY handy

My connection keeps timing out this morning. The status script tells me it's up though.

Sorry Syco, thought everyone knew about that .

It has some great sections on redstone mechanisms (electrical engineers should have no problem at all:D).

Since you may not know; mobs can only spawn at certain light levels, think it's at least four blocks from a torch, so dark tunnels can be very dangerous. With no enough light you could be bombermaned by creepers before you know it.

Crashed at 12:30am when no-one was online. Hopefully Notch sorts this ASAP,it's much worse than the memory leak error!!

Should be back online now, for how long, I don't know

Edit: Here's the bug on the official bug tracker- http://getsatisfaction.com/mojang/topics/server_crashes_since_0_2_6_02_update

I think we could maybe do with a thread on 'tips & tricks' for some of the newer players (myself included!)

If I find myself without a compass for example, knowing that the clouds always blow north makes it easier to orientate myself. The person who told me this told me that "everyone knew"

cian1500ww

Crashed again, restarting now.

Wait! Clouds always blow north?

Well that's news to me. Anyway I always plant torches when I travel, so there is an easily followable route with no immediate monster spawns near it.

And crashed again. I think if you have to manually restart then don't bother until this thing is fixed.

Restarted again, I don't mind because I can keep an eye on it while I get some other work done. Hopefully it'll be sorted today.

The new version of Hey0 is out and works perfect, no point enabling it yet until Notch releases a new version of the server client with a fix for this bug.

Ponster

*sigh* before the last restart I was out exploring and hid myself in a tunnel at night. After the restart I find myself where I had been 2 minutes earlier i.e. in the middle of nowhere surrounded by zombies/creepers. Time to make some new stuff !

Sorry!! I'll try and do a save before each restart but I'm not sure if it save's properly after the bug happens.

everytime i try to join any server it crashes the client. It simply closes after i ress connect. ive redownloaded and all and its still doing the same thing.

when i press connect the console says "Player is null" and then minecraft whitescrens and the java console closes...

That's very weird, it's possible that maybe something has gone wrong with the Java Runtime Enviroment on your computer. Try restarting the computer and running the game and if that doesn't work uninstall Java altogether and then reinstall it.

I've enabled the Hey0 mod on the server to see if the bug still occurs with it.
Type /help in game to see the new commands that you can use
