OcUK Minecraft Server - Rules & Chat

Hey folks, just started to really get into MC (damned dissertation got in the way

). I've applied to be whitelisted for the server. Are there any essential mods I need for it?

Also, and half decent texture packs anyone can recommend? I know they are discussed in many posts, I've trawled through many, but they are out of date, and rather confusing for a noob

Cheers

For texture pack I use MixCraftHD and it's very good.

It's really simple to apply them, most packs come with a patcher which you need if you would like higher res textures.

I tried to access mumble last night but I kept receiving error messages and then being disconneted from the server.

I used the IP and Port address in the first post. Am I being thick, is it your Forum name, your Minecraft name or your real name?!

minecraft enhanced is very good (also has a 128x128 or 256x256 texture versiosn) and better yet supports bump mapping!!

here's a link bunch of my screen shots using the older version (i need to update so i can use the new shader/bump mapping)

/home sunlitsix should still take you to the, erm, Vaultheon!

So I can use the chests located here to store all my stuff? I guess I should also mark them [Private]??

Yeah, everyone should mark all chests they use as [Private] - even outside of the vaultheon.

Thanks for the chest space in the vaultheon. I'm packed up and ready to move!

Taziir · 31 Mar 2011 at 15:20

The Vaultheon!

Please try and take chests in vertical blocks, ie take 3 vertical rows of chests which would give you 18 Double chests and make stuff easy to find

Me likey!

After the issues of the other day we now have a test server to..er..test the movement of buildings from one server to another. We'll let people know how it goes.

This is also the 24 hour warning before applications for building moves are CLOSED. This doesn't mean that the server move is happening in 24 hours - it just means that we need a time of stability where we can evaluate all the current requests and process them properly.

There's still no mention of how big the newspawn area that is being saved though?

PapaLazaru · 31 Mar 2011 at 16:18

Just had a thought. If I keep all my stuff on me (I don't have a lot) I take it that it will stay with me once the move happens?

So, none of my stuff in chests but on my possession?

No, put everything in a chest at the vaultathon (then it will 100% be brought across) anything in your inventory will be lost.

Ah, thought I'd replied in the thread on linktart with details.

Now we've got a proper working test server I'm hoping we can get some things moved over and be able to give more accurate answers.

We'll be attempting to go for the largest possible area. If it messes up we'll try the smaller area...and if that messes up we'll try to move individual houses within the area.

Jongo · 31 Mar 2011 at 16:29

Although i have built some totally epic buildings, i think what i will do is simply start a fresh and just load up all my useful stuff into the VAULTHEON.

I like the idea of exploring so i will just find a new patch hopefully and start again

Cool. Only need one small chest. Can I teleport to this vaultathon? I have no idea where anything is I have been so caught up in my basement. Is it near Newtown, or whatever it is called?
