Epic idea. We need a mob tower in nether?
So should we be updating to 1.3 soon? I mean us, personally, our clients?
Where'd you live?
I'll come over and say it, after I organise your collection of dvds.
Tested out the new nether plugin, looks very good. When I went through I was underground, it had already built me a return gate, hollowed a radius around it and installed a smooth stone floor under the portal. Return leg put me back on surface as before, didn't get chance to do further testing of it so far.
LOL, nearly choked on my tea!
Whut did I say?
you knwo wha twe coul do syl.
Make a big room that has a domed roof and an oculus in the centre (with the portal beneath it in the centre, perhaps on a pedestal.) that reaches to the surface (which would have a ledge and be lit so mobs don't fall down it and into the chamber)
so like the pantheon
but the hole in the ceiling goes all the way to surface up a sort of chimney.
also has the benefit of casting some awesome natural light on to the portal.
very Indiana Jones esque.

That would work since when I was making the water elevator I had a 2x1 shaft to the surface I would return right next to the portal since that shaft was open to the surface, guess it would depend on how exact our return landing spot is.
Picture looks amazing, and suitably epic for our tastes
Ugh, explaining it loses it's charm.
It the OCD thing especially prevalent in Minecrafters, I have the habit of rearranging people's chests in the game so they are all in order.
I am fairly finnicky about my collection of games, dvds and cds...
/alphabetical order.
If I keep joining, it will work!
That would be infinity more practical
But It would still be interesting to try to farm etc. there!Do you wish us to remove the portals in our current map before you move over to 1.3?
Yeah when I came back on-line once i came back to find my crudely dirt walled of cave glas fronted, a full ladder up to it all chests neatly sorted out and labelled lighting installed in the floor and was thinking wtf, till i saw syl then it was just "ah that explains it"
Test server is up and down at the moment as FrenchTart is trying to fix the whitelist issue. As you probably know 1.3 has it's own whitelist built in so not sure how this will interact with the plugins as the it is currently linked to the website to allow adding of new players. Think someone posted the 1.2 files a few pages back that will let you downgrade.

Probably a good idea but I don't think it's absolutely required.
yeah remove it syl i got an idea for the new room.
atm we got the 3 stairs i'm thinking we extend the middle stair down some them into a corridor while the other two just go as corridors at that level.
the 2 side corridors come back together at the entrance to the entrance hall (like the big room like the old one) while the 3rd stair goes down then to a corridor quite a ways below and still in between.
in the center one we build the big dome room and oculus up, which some though the center of the entrance hall where it will be a big glass tube (maybe with a pool of lava surounding it's base as a feature) then it carries on up to the surface.
I'l knockup a sketch in paint to explain better.

Great idea, be a nice feature in the great hall.
Portal has been fully removed, still need to decommission the water elevator though might keep it and block off entrance to it as it is good method of getting to and from the surface above.
Portal I built in a building at spawn has also been removed.
