Why don't you just play single player or on a private server. You already isolated yourself from everyone else by walking 32000 blocks away...

because i build with groups of people....

i had to move away the last time i tried to build the thing it was right in the middle of the map but people built though it so i had to move.

I've never played the sp, as i find it boring and it would take months to build the same things without groups like in mp, but tbfh I'm not building the same thing a 3rd ****ing time.

I've supported every other world reset and every one i've been in the middle of a big project and never got to finish it but this time it's just annoying because there's no need for a reset.

only way i could ever get it built, and it looks like now it's all ****ing wasted just like the last time :/

Fire oone, i marked the area before the server had even got up but by the time i'd got down to the expansion part there were already half a dozen basements dug though the thing so had to go restart an now the map's being wiped?

**** it tbh.

I spent hours trying to get things running again without losing the map data. It's not a decision that has been taken lightly.

edit: When I say hours, I mean from about midnight on Friday until past 2am and then from when I got up on Saturday until about 4.30pm.

IMO, such a massive build like yours might benefit from being on a less public server, I'm sure you could cut out your area from the server backup and carry on still without restarting.

Macky · 27 Feb 2011 at 16:26

French we all appreciate the work you're doing mate. You're doing a great job. People need to realize that it's a beta game, **** will probably happen at some point or another. Hell why do you think that all I do is bounce around and build absolutely **** all! Tefal, you better stay.

tefal people are working on the corruption issue on the current world
but without that fixed the error log get far to big and brings down the server.

The reset is being considered because of this. As so far the servers have been off line more then online and lags to hell and back. No point in having a world that crashed every day and take a few hours to bring back online

I under stand the corruption issuer, but from what was posted is was a relatively small area and only affected 2-3 people, i'm up for helping them rebuild and donating ress, but to wipe the other 100+ people's work is annoying as ****.

Each big project I've done has usually had 10+ people working on it, when we cleared land for the fort we had the whole server on, and a good 5-6 people doing it every day for weeks.

james.miller · 27 Feb 2011 at 16:34

tef they've already tried to fix it once and it didnt work. they are still trying to fix it, thats why the server is down right now. this isnt affect 2-3 people, it's affecting all of us and its not fair to expect them to try and try again. most of us would rather a fresh start.

perhaps your chunk can be copied and spliced in?

yrthilian · 27 Feb 2011 at 16:34

the corruption was not fixed.
as the error is referring to a chunk that is not in that location
it is very difficult to find it and fix it.

Hence people have worked most of the weekend trying to find and fix it.

That isn't the case actually (sadly). The corruption has done more than that and basically is causing huge issues that bring down the server really quickly after it goes up.

I agree, if it was just the case that a small area was lost then I'd definitely say a restart wasn't needed.

toString · 27 Feb 2011 at 16:38

I wouldn't want FT to spend more of his time on these issues when he's already done a lot in managing the server.

I'm working on fixing this as we speak, I just need a few more hours to finish.

yrthilian · 27 Feb 2011 at 16:51

Oh FT do you still have the original map from 1.2?

if so could you fire that up to the-cript webspace?

thanks

FrenchTart · 27 Feb 2011 at 16:53

I already uploaded the map from 1.2 and a recent backup for 1.3.

hey guys,

Sorry for my abcense the past week or so. Seems a lot has changed hehe. However from reading up am i right in saying all i need to do to be whitelisted again is to go on linktart.co.uk, create an account and then go to the minecraft setting in profile? just ive done all this, including putting my mc name in and its still says im not whitelisted. Or does it just take a matter of time to update?

Cheers all.

if you check the recent post you would know the server is being fixed. well the map files for the server is. So it is all off line at the mo

Drake5 · 27 Feb 2011 at 18:10

Does anyone else find offline mode to be more demanding? It seems quite choppy compared to online and FPS seems much lower.

sunlitsix · 27 Feb 2011 at 18:12

I sorted out my performance issues simply by reinstalling the graphics drivers.

FrenchTart · 27 Feb 2011 at 18:21

Server coming back up in a few mins.

Due to the hard work of sylvet we have got a working map from only a few days ago (when we upgraded to 1.2 I think).

/tpc isn't working (waiting on a plugin update).
/homes are reset.
Nether is reset.
minecart mania needs configuring by someone that knows how it's supposed to work.
Server may still have issues that become apparent in use today - issues may cause excessive lag/server downtime and we may still need to reset.

Windle will be appointing some server mods/admins asap as I won't be around much next week.
