Skins, etc. are client side. Gameplay mods are server side. As for the update thing, yeah, most servers will probably take a few days to be updated to 1.3.x. I know DS is currently out of date as we speak, because I'm still at work. :)Quote:

Is it pretty easy to get on a server? Is there one that's recommended for younger folks?
*Edit:
Adventure server is still running 1.2.5. I reverted it due to weirdness with the 1.3.1 update and "old maps". We'll see how long it takes to fix this. The glitch happens when leaving a portal. You simply fall through the world until you die, or you suffocate in a wall. :eek:
In the meantime, I have started a 1.3.1 test server on the normal port. That's darksavior.net:25565
I don't know..he's just been playing on some server with two of his schoolmates. It is very creative and I would recommend it. He's already come up with some neat creations and listening to him talk about the process of creating this to have more of this so he can make more of that to build this and that is pretty cool.

Once it's fixed, you are more than welcome to have them join the server. :) (Let me know their usernames, we run a whitelist to keep out the griefers).Quote:

It'll be back once the bug is fixed where you die every time you go through a portal, and sometimes when you respawn as well.
i'll send you a pm. I'll have to have a talk with him about griefing though...otherwise he might just go Godzilla and destroy everything LOL.

We have a test 1.3.1 server running now on darksavior.net:25565 to play with while we wait. Don't get attached to it, it doesn't get backed up, and we aren't keeping it. Once 1.3.2 or whatever drops that fixes this bug we'll update the main server and be back in business.
So tl;dr version: To play adventure you have to stay on 1.2.5. If you want to mess with 1.3.1, we have a test server for that.
Yes. If you didn't point out the link I would have had no idea it was there.Quote:
