Minecraft, awesome one man game project

James, can you please restart the server when you get a chance? Wither skeletons are not spawning in our nether fortresses. I've found some websites reporting the same issue, and apparently a server restart corrects it. I'm hoping it will work for us. Thanks man!

Done.

Thanks James. I'll mosey on over to one of the nether fortresses again when I get home today. I will post results tonight.

Anyone interested in teaming up to fight a wither if I can actually get some skulls?

[Rush]

Still no luck - no wither skeletons. One of the few links I could find online about others having this issue is:

James, do you run a bukkit server? If not, I have no idea what could be causing this.

Ugh, we need a new map... or a cropped version of ours.

I think you may have hit the nail on the head. I think you might have to wander far enough t spawn a new nether fortress before the wither skeletons will spawn. Which brings us back to the original problem of I haven't gotten around to trying to make a new map and drop assets from the old one into it, which was scaring people off from playing until they knew one way or the other.

For now the old map stays. Maybe over the holiday I can dedicate a few hours to play with the map editors. Probably not, but I will try. When I finally figure out how to do things, I'll post again asking if people want to go ahead with a new map. Until then the old one will stand. (Which is probably what's causing nobody to play currently on the server.)

Sorry for the rambling response. Short version: We're still on the old map because I haven't dedicated enough time to fix that, and people don't want to lose their work.

How about 2 maps? The old one, and a new one to begin working in, then you can fuse the two later once you get enough time.

lol my youngest daughter begged me to get her minecraft for the xbox 360... it's actually pretty fun on the console.

Fair enough. I just want to get back to playing on a regular basis... I miss building stuff.

Also, when you get a chance, can you please update the server to 1.4.5?

[James]

Sure thing.

*Edit: done.

Are there flying mounts yet? I plan to return once I can get a flying mount in which to deliver my own brutal form of justice.

I believe riding a pig off of a cliff has been in the game for quite some time.

I don't think Mojang has any plans to incorporate flying mounts into the game.

James' server is down?

James' server is down?

Yes, and now back up.

Thanks James

I'm stoked because I found 4 cave spider spawners in REALLY close proximity to each other. After working out the math, I found that there is a midpoint you can stand on where all 4 will activate. Should make for a badass XP machine! Now, to design it...
