1.4.6 installed on StantonCraft

I was wondering why it was taking Bukkit so long to release a build for 1.4.5.  I saw on Twitter that 1.4.6 was going to be released soon, but I didn't realize it was going full release THIS soon.

Bukkit's on the ball this time.  They already have a Beta version for 1.4.6 released!

StantonCraft is running 1.4.6 now.  There are some errors popping up on server load so let me know if you run into any unexpected behavior.

BTW, I tried an experiment giving a couple users access to their own world and being admins on that world, but the experiment failed.  I need to get a more defnitive list of permissions and make sure I can take away commands like '/op' and '/ban'.  Sad face.

There's another issue where a user with creative in Notnats moves to another world they get to keep creative... and in fact can't switch out of it.  I really want 'world' to be a survival only server, with no creative powers, so if you jump over to that 'world' do me a favor and don't go all creative all over the place.. :)  That's what Notnats is for.

Thanks!

As always our server is:
minecraft.notnats.com

1.4.5 (well, 1.4.4) update

Wow, has anyone else gone to look at the update notes for version 1.4.4?  They're massive!

I was wondering why I wasn't setting anyone logging into the server.  I'm hoping this was the reason.  The good news is since it's local there are no plans for taking it down due to lack of activity, at all.

Remember we have multiple worlds now, and if you want a new world let me know, I can make it happen.  Just need to know the name, and maybe the seed you want.

There has been a bit of griefing lately that makes me sad.  Don't touch anyone else's builds.  Remember, since we only have a handful of users I can probably track it down.  We have anti-flame spreading options turned on but as long as we have creative mode it will be possible for someone to 'unbuild' your creations.

We're upgraded now, so everyone can log in with the latest client.

We have a Development Build of Bukkit running, so if you notice any bugs just be patient, they should be resolved as the build gets more stable.

MultiWorld!

Bukkit has updated to a beta version 1.4.2R0.2 and that has been installed on the server.

Installed MultiWorld on the server over the weekend so that we can have BOTH the new map and the old map on the server at the same time.

During all this transition we do seem to have had some issues with the permissions.  I think I have it fixed so that the MultiWorld commands are available to everyone on both servers, but if anyone has problems just send me a /mail in-game (mail it to Zego).

The commands are /mw list, and /mw goto <world>.  The two worlds we have right now are Notnats (the old world) and world, which is the new 1.4.2 map.  If everything goes well we can have more worlds.  Just let me know.  We might move to one creative map, and then legit maps, but that won't change for a while.

Tekkit!

Our server is now running both a Bukkit version (running on the default port, minecraft.notnats.com) and a Tekkit version.  To connect to the Tekkit server connect to minecraft.notnats.com:25567

In order to connect to the Tekkit version you need to download the Tekkit launcher, from http://www.technicpack.net/tekkit/.  Click on the green button on the right side that says "Download the Technic Launcher".

Download it, and run it and it will run the launcher.   Just like the Windows version of Minecraft you can put it anywhere on your computer.  It does not make its own icons, so once you put it in a folder you'll need to create a shortcut for your desktop or start menu.  Or just download it to your desktop.

This launcher will allow you to choose between the different versions that going between servers that are using the latest code (like the Bukkit server) and the servers that are using legacy (older) code, like the Tekkit mods.

When the launcher runs there is a dropdown box in the upper left corner of the launcher.  Click the down arrow to cycle through the different versions you can run.  To connect to our Tekkit server choose the 'Tekkit' option.  To connect to  our Bukkit server, choose the 'Vanilla' option.

I have not yet tried to get Misa's texture pack working with the option to run 'Vanilla' minecraft through the Technic launcher.  Since it copies and modifies the minecraft.jar in order to get it to run with a Tekkit server, and Misa's needs a modified minecraft.jar file I'm not sure if it can be done, but I will look into it and post instructions if I figure it out.

BTW, there will be no creative mode or ops in Tekkit, at all.

And spawn is right next to a volcano.

Welcome to your new old home!

We've moved!  We're now running on a server housed on our local network, so we don't have to worry about memory, or hosting, or any of that stuff that cost money.  We have plenty of bandwidth, and a powerful enough server.

You can still connect the same way as before.  Let me know of any problems.

Hopefully it is rather undetectable except for the ... lack of reliability that it has had lately.  It's the same map as always.

In moving it over I've been trying to remove some of the error messages that happen that I really didn't have an easy way to do while it was on the hosted server.  Not that it will make much difference playing on the server... but I'm happier that the startup is cleaner, anyway.

I've been trying to get a Tekkit installation to work, but it continually refuses connections.  I really want to play on a Tekkit world from the beginning.  It's still a work in progress.  I'll announce it when it's ready.

Edit: Okay, I figured it out.  Tekkit is built on 1.2.5, and I'm trying to connect with a 1.3.2 client, duh.  Now where did I leave that 1.2.5 jar file...

What?! Another Minecraft Release? Minecraft 1.3.2 ...

BREAKING NEWS!  --- You can log in with 1.3.2!  It doesn't kick you out!  This is very good news.

Yes, there is yet another Minecraft release.  Sometime between this morning when I logged in and this afternoon Mojang shipped another Minecraft release.

It is a pretty small release with only 3 items on it:

Minecraft 1.3.2

+ Added sideways logs in trees 

* Fixed a bug that caused players to fall out of the world when going into the Nether 

* Fixed a bug that caused random suffocation damage in water

I guess they determined that these were imporant enough to kick out immediately, especially the bug squashes.  Although it makes me nervous that they left Herobrine in.

But this means the usual problems with multi-player.  Can't upgrade it until we get a Bukkit version.  Something tells me that Bukkit will just be ported over to this new version fairly quick due to the low number of changes that really didn't affect any big portions of gameplay, but yet, we must still wait.

If you want to play on the server, you'll need to keep your install at 1.3.1.  If you upgrade to 1.3.2 you will download another minecraft.jar, so you will need to run MCPatcher again if you're using more detailed texture packs.

I'll keep an eye on it and keep you updated.
