New Minecraft 1.13.2 Vanilla server now up!

omg 5 years ago.

I know what you mean jelly bean! I do miss the Linktart days :'(

The current witch farm is producing 2300 items per hour. Checking back on the thread 5punk linked to, the old witch farm we built was churning out 8000 items per hour!!!!!! It's the sweepers and bubble streams that are slowing this one down (not that it can ever hope to reach 8k items ph) but I might look into changing the way the witches get moved. Currently the get funnelled into a single bubblevator fed from each side and they can be a little "difficult" in going into the stream. I may possibly redesign it to two separate bubblevators at a later date, but 2.3k items per hour should be ok.....(for now!!!!). I guess using a looting sword would massively improve drops. An auto clicker with food held in the off hand would work.

I'll keep this updated if I change it. Laters - Ham

AUTO CLICKER?!?

*Goes afk at wither farm for next 3 days*

*TPS on the server drops to like, 5*

Lol - don't forget you'll need food in your off hand, and a way to replenish it. Prolly a dropper with a timer on it and make sure to stand on a hopper to replenish the dropper with dropped items. You'll need your inv full as well. Not sure there's enough room at the Witherfarm for that due to the insane amount of redstone and hopper minecarts under the killing spot.

Can't remember how long it took for three stacks of skulls, but it wasn't long! Checking back on the thread, with the current rates 40 minutes should get you three stacks of skulls!

 

[haaammit]

I dont have the attention span to pull it off anyway

You don't need attention to afk

Thought I'd try a looting sword at the witch farm. Only managed to get 5 mins in as these type of farms only really work when one person is overworld. Rates multiplied by 12 to get 60 mins of afk time are (and yes, this isn't a very scientific test due to the short time - bite me ): Bracket number is amount auto killing

Eyes 5.8 (4)
Glow 7.3 (4.7)
Sugar 7.5 (5)
Bottles 6.2 (4)
Redstone 11.4 (4.5)
Gunpowder 9.7 (4.5
Sticks 16.8 (9)

but also 60 health potions (5 after 5 mins) so this brings the rates (excluding potion drops) to 4.1k items per hour. That is a lot better! I'll leave a looting 3 mending sweeping edge sword in a chest up there later.

5 Mins loot with a looting 3 sword



Edit - the more astute of you will have noticed my xp has gone from 357 levels to 34. That's because I jumped off the farm yesterday, forgetting I had dumped all my gear, inc my elytra, into a chest whilst I was afk. Jeez, what a noob Better get to the gold farm and get dem levels back!!!!!

1.14 has been released by Mojang! Once Spigot/Bukkit update and the few plugins we use also update then I assume you're all happy for me to update to 1.14?

No idea on timescales yet due to the need to wait for the plugins to update!

 

[haaammit]

PSA: Villager trading and breeding has undergone a large change. Thanks Mojong :/

I've been spending time to trade with as many villagers as possible to get emeralds to buy as many books as possible before the current system gets nerfed. I would urge y'all to do the same.

I've got enough books now to make 4 complete sets of gear, plus I have 2 spare sets of gear already.

There are a couple of technical MC players who are looking at the best ways to set up new breeders/trading halls (Gnembon and Ilmango) but I still think it's worth getting as many backup books as possible. Like I say, I have no idea on timescale of us moving to 1.14 so I would recommend doing those deals and getting those books!

If anyone is short on actual books, I do have plenty in stock - just hook me up ig, on here or on Discord!

Hello, I'm a returning player from the old days of Linktart, can you whitelist me too? name: ShaggyJamesDaly

I tried but that name isn't recognised. It's also showing as available on NameMC.com

edit I tried your OCUK username, and that is shown as taken, so I've added that to the whitelist (shaggyd)

 

[haaammit]

It would seem, that during all this XBOX/Mojang takeover malarkey, my old account shaggyd is locked and tied to an ancient email account. Anyway, my current MC username is JamesDaly and is confirmed with a valid UUID. I have all my versions of MC (Java/Win10/PE) set to this now..

Heh - JamesDaly added to the whitelist

I'm wanting to try some map art. Only basic stuff, I want a purple surround on my nether portals. I have enough purple dye and enough sand, but I need 3 dubs of gravel to make the 16,384 purple concrete powders I need.

I only have about 1.5 dubs of gravel in stock - looking to buy gravel as I cba to dig a load out (just dug out about 6 dubs of sand today lol). Let me know if you can hook me up!

TY - Ham

@haaammit

Look for the giant melon

Ah sweet ty ty. What do I owe you?

I had so much fun with the Linktart server years ago, I'm tempted to get back into Minecraft.

I just dipped my toe and try a Single Player Survival world... I'm so out of my depth already So much has changed! And it's not even modded

Also there are so many different versions of the game now... Do I go Java or Windows 10 version?

If you want to join this server then it's the Java one. Yeah, loads have changed since the Linktart days! iirc the last vanilla version Linktart was running before it shut down was 1.8, and here we are with this server on 1.13.2 and Mojang have just released 1.14!

Hey @haaammit, please could I be added to the whitelist? Name: Marky123

I missed this yesterday due to work - sorry :'(

Added

 

[haaammit]

can I be added please? MRKNIFEYUK

Added! Have fun

 

[haaammit]

thanks, how do I make my claims bigger?

You use a golden shovel to expand claims. To see if a block is claimed, click on it with a stick.

You start off with 100 blocks and you gain 100 extra blocks per hour of gameplay, but if you're really stuck I can always add to your claim amount if you want

I'll head over to spawn later and dump a whole load of golden shovels in the chests there.

 

[haaammit]

OK, I've been stalking this thread since it was made and I've finally given in. Can I be added please? IG name is Loftie AFAIK.

Heh! Added

There's a shack at spawn with a few bits in to help start out. Have fun - Ham

 

[haaammit]

Think they must have made combat harder since I've last played, went to slap a skelly only to be given a face full of arrows. I call aimbot.

Not sure when you last played, but the combat was reworked back in 1.9. Make sure you have a shield in your off hand and you can soon slap those skellybutts!

The server is on hard mode, so that may also be a factor!

 

[haaammit]

Just thought I'd post these here - Found them on Reddit, and I find them really useful for builds

That's a pretty handy guide - ty

Pretty sure it was before I've not played past the horse update tbh. Hard mode makes sense, doesn't hurt any less when they slap me with their enchanted bows. They didn't even drop the bow!

Edit: shield definitely helped, cheers for the info

Crumbs - the Horse update was 1.6!! You've got a whole lotta new stuff to discover! Glad the shield helped

It's now possible to update the server to 1.14.2 as both coreprotect and griefprevention now support 1.14. Dynmap has not updated as yet, so we would be without that for the foreseeable future, and UltimateTimber is yet to update.

So - do we want to upgrade to 1.14.2? I would like to, and to keep the existing world/map and maybe I could put in a teleport button to tp players to an unregenerated area of the map, with a return button so new 1.14.2 land can be generated.

Let me know your thoughts - I will backup the world before pressing the big shiny button though! Cheers - Ham

 

[haaammit]

I've not done much on it TBH, as such I'm easy. Though I'd definitely miss dynmap. Ultimatetimber is useful, unless you like to plant the trees in certain places and have to run round smacking all the saplings out. I assume 1.4 breaks all your farms?

I'm sure dynmap will update and I can find another tree mod.

The Iron Farms no longer work in 1.14 (but I think I have 9 double chests of iron blocks) but the others will be fine

 

[haaammit]

Yes, voxelmap will work with 1.14 - you may need to transfer your world file over. Not sure what will happen with the dynmap if I restart the server without it. I'll do some testing next week.

The iron farms were easy enough, as are the other farms - there's plenty of guides out there!

There will be a tree mod out there, so don't worry!

I'll start the process next week and will update this thread as and when

EDIT:I just stopped the server and tried to load the dynmap and it won't load up (as I thought). There's been some major lighting updates with new textures, so a 1.14 version may be a while off: https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/issues/2469

We didn't have dynmap until 4 months after the new world was created. Hmm food for thought. Voxelmap will work client side as of this point as a workaround

 

[haaammit]

Well just to prove me wrong, Dynmap has just dropped an update for 1.14.x so I will update the server in the next couple of days

 

[haaammit]

Okay - scrap that. I had some time spare, so we are now running 1.14.2. Dynmap is working as intended. CoreProtect is up and running, GriefPrevention is updated and has kept existing claims, and UltimateTimber seems to be 1.14.x compatible!

At the moment I can either have Optifine OR Voxelmap running on my client - I'm sure that will change soon!

Have fun - Ham

EDIT: I've created a new thread for all the 1.14.2 goodness so add any comments there: https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/t...2-vanilla-server-now-up-and-running.18856901/
