Minecraft, awesome one man game project

**LiquidCrash** · 09-07-2011, 02:49 PM

I logged into the old server we had and noticed all the stuff I built is pretty much destroyed as well. I think it was partially the addition of creepers, but I also saw TNT all over the place. Oh well, it was fun building it!

I'll definitely be playing when adventure mode comes out. That was one of the things I wanted to do with Briarwood, quests!

Last night I logged in and fixed up the hole in the roof/side of the columns building and reactivated the portal, then fixed the flooding in one of my other buildings, then tried to clean up some lava...at which point I fell in and lost all of my stuff in it.

Cleanup seems hardly worth it if we're moving to a new map soon anyway (latest estimate for 1.8 release is Monday), but at least it gives a little bit of "purpose" to playing the game.

I started to fix the falls but ended up catching fire. Luckily managed to jump off and into an errant stream of water; ended up with half a heart left.

With no easy way to get back to my main base (since the stairs to the tunnels are jacked) where I think I had some food, I just logged out. May try to fix it again later.

Barn is fixed, snow dome and lighthouse are clear of lava, tree farm is replanted.

Adding Minecraft to Steam even as a non-steam game = best idea ever.

OH GOD SO UGLY

Still working on fixing the falls, but I have made sure to get rid of that god awful "WE RULE" made out of netherstone. The falls will take a while to fix, it's somewhat delicate to get everything to fall in the anal retentive manner that I accept.

James, have you thought about adding server mods that discourage griefing?

I have not, but that's mostly because my job has been consuming much more of my time, and I've haven't been playing minecraft pretty much at all. You know what they say; out of sight out of mind.

I honestly don't think I will be the one hosting another multiplayer server. Seems we need someone who can offer up a bit more time to managing it than I will have in the next few months.

Understandable! I would do it, but I don't know anything about running a server, and I get burnt out on Minecraft after I play it obsessively for two weeks straight, lol.

Played a bit tonight with dejarin and melsh. I don't even recognize our world anymore. Not from griefing, just from the sheer fact that I haven't spent quality time there in so long.

Interestingly, it was pointed out to me that someone posted the server on a Totalwar forum, claiming it was run by their cousin. Strangely, I don't have any cousins.

Can I get on the whitelist? Name is fuuian.

Done. There will be a few people to add as we go. I just used the last 30 or 60 days of usage as a way to judge the current whitelist.

**LiquidCrash** · 09-10-2011, 08:23 AM

Thanks. Yeah, I haven't played in awhile.

Version 1.8 is officially out after 2 pre-releases.

Time for our new map, or time to wait for 1.8_01+?

Whats the server info again? I wiped my PC and no longer have it saved.

That said, I recommend we start a new thread, have it stickied as the unofficial Sharky Minecraft Server, and include the list of server info and users in the first post. Best of all, we could even keep a list of running projects on the first 1 or 2 posts for people to look at.

Thoughts? This is obviously a decision James and the mods would need to be okay with but I think many people here would support it.

EDIT: Mods, also feel free to remove the game of the month sticky.

I can update the server now, I'm assuming you can't login at all until I do that.
*Edit: server updated to beta 1.8. Only you can't get to it because the Minecraft authentication server is down. (Or at least it is for me.) Also, only the smp map is running. I have left the "Creative" map turned off for now.

As for a new map/sticky thread, whatever, if people are OK with the performance of the system, I'll continue to host the server.
