OcUK Minecraft Server - Rules & Chat

When I popped on last night it seemed fine, could do with testing the /tell command to see if I can keep crashing the server

Did you get my PM on linktart btw?

Seemed good from what I saw last night. I believe MP host their servers on SSD's? I assume because it's quite intensive on the read/writes.

Ah, I need to disable that and update Bukkit when I get the chance. Currently just transferring a load of files to the server (over 100GB of steam server stuff). Painful :s

I got it. I replied to your message in the BF3 thread thanking you

Missed that! The thread was moving to fast for me to keep up

How is the server coping from yourside? Is it looking alright?

Seems to be okay, yeah. Just wish I had more time to run some of the tests we discussed.

Might have a look around next week to see if there's anything new/exciting in the world of Bukkit mods.

Ft - are you going to make a new minecraft thread on OCUK? just so the OP can be updated which might reduce the number of new folks getting confused about the rules etc.

I'm sure someone can draw one up if you don't have the time

PS anyone know what happened to Nuttyprot? He's not logged on according to FTs signature, does anyone know how he died?

or has his ISP finally disconnected him for excess MC use?

FrenchTart · 28 Jul 2011 at 12:44

I will do, yeah. toString drafted one for me a while back. I'll get it sorted within a week - feel free to nag me if not

Correct. My last MC Server was based over there, and the difference between running it off their SSD's, and my high end Raptor HD's was very noticeable.

There was a huge drop in performance when Notch and Co changed the world file structure to not consist of a billion little files, which was very harmful to SSD's - the new system isn't however. Ramdisk sounds interesting, it'll certainly speed up slow chunkloading, a hallmark of the new world save structure.

Is FT's server on MP now? I've not been following this thread lately.

Sorry - I missed this post. Yeah, MP run on SSDs but that's not something I can source really. I imagine trying to find a dedi server host that offers SSDs in addition to the storage and other bits I need would be difficult and lead to much expense

Nope, still a dedi. I've just upgraded from 8GB to 24GB of ram though

Just had a quick look at the list of bukkit mods and there really isn't anything good worth adding!

Then the few interesting things I found still have serious bugs or need client side mods.

FT dont know if your internet got sorted.
But just a reminder about the plugin's and setting up the topic on the LT site.
I know you have been busy an all so just a little reminder

Damn :/

I was thinking of playing with the newish Bukkit mod that enables easier use of client-side mods. If I did that it would likely not be on the main MC server though, as it would be too prone to things breaking.

been playing some industrial craft in sp.

while the mod is good i just can't get into sp mc seems dull in comparison to mp

This could be really good for the Colosseum and arenas people have built around the map.

The War plugin if it gets updated (also reportedly the best one)

Not tried this one myself btw. Just thought link it as I have seen a few people mention pvp type areas.

Well I've been getting back into single player mainly because I have a 9 hour flight to Canada in 10 days (and 9 hours back the other way of course), so I'll still be able to get my Minecraft fix
