*** Official OcUK Minecraft Server - Discussion and Rules ***

There's definitely an argument for taking away quarries given how much hassle they have caused but I guess that would ruin a lot of the possibly automation stuff people like to build?

Just to throw this out there we are currently considering a new world (again, sigh) to try and avoid some of the further issues. Player builds would be copied across in such a case obviously. We'd probably copy from the current old world too so we can just avoid having it.

I vote for another world, I cant play on this one at the moment so not getting any enjoyment.
I would like to have my main build from the old map briought over, might have to agree what is included as it is rather huge lol, and a small build to

If the new world went ahead, how long you think this might take?

Thanks FT & Team for your support in what is a PAIN IN THE ASS ( i mean Hunter_pa not the game LOL )

FT if you dont mind i'd like to throw this idea out there....

1stly let me ask a question.... once you have a nuke reactor.... what else is there to do.. see who can get the most power the quickest- gone are the days of cathedrals, colosseum, a train line even richard branson would bid for.
What is next.....

How about just plain old MC v3, we have given tekkit a go, when i come on the server it seems bare, less Org players, yes people are requesting Whitlist, but where is the main base gone.. I appericate why it went all tekkit, coz ppl lost interest in 1.2, but maybe its worth haviong ago at vanilla and when we all get bored, try someting new :)
 
Can I have access to my old world map please....I am going to take it that the old world is NOT being restored at this stage.

Either way it would be greatly appreciated if I could just get a copy of my old build now. I am getting a bit sick of waiting if I am honest
 
We don't have to provide anything so you can be sick all you want.

I will put a download of it up online when I get the chance and when I find somewhere to host the 1GB file for me. I'm not having it on the linktart webspace.
 
Exactly, the Linktart server is not Pay to Play so we should all be grateful for whatever is provided. :D

With regards to Vanilla > Tekkit, you can play Minecraft in a Vanilla fashion even if Tekkit is enabled to be fair. I personally feel Tekkit gives me more options to build contraptions in my builds.

i.e. The elevator I made using RedPower Control.
 
OK let make some things clear.

Quarries. they where an issue ONLY because of the bad managment from player not knowing how to use them right. Quarries have been fine since the rules for them came in.

Mining laser is worde than a quarry. When used on scatter mode they take huge areas out and brop all the resorces and THIS causes lag.

BC add other things to MC like fule sorces.
Yes there was issues but they are not there anymore.

Regards Vannila. The whole reasion we moved was because we went a few months without players. We had issues with tekkit and its launcher that is why we moved from them to our own managed one. Things have not been perfect but they have been better.

Regards OLD world.
We have been working on this and doing a LOT to try and resolve to conflicts for adding it in. As FT said the file is huge and we dont have a good place to hoast it. So you will just have to wait till we can sort it.

We have been working on multiworld and are close to sorting it out so just wait and we will post when we are ready.

why are the days of making a Colosseum or massive train line gone? also, you could play with frames and make some awesome contraptions with them. perhaps make a 3D printer with the new redpower assemblers or a fully automatic UU generation machine that converts UU into HV solar panels

even with my virtually non existent imagination i can come up with some fun ideas to make in minecraft
 
is the server just not as powerful as the one used in direwolf's server play or something? there are several massive TBMs going in that for most of the time and i havent seen any lag problems
 
In regards to there being a new server, and any potential new mods then:

Forestry - Seen a bit of this and I also like the look of it

Thaumcraft - (If it becomes available on SMP)

Microblocks - Should be kept, useful for adding details to player builds.

Logistics pipes - Again, if at all available for SMP



Apart from the mods, it might be worth looking at more ways they can be used or maybe have a 'few' 'goals'. Like the idea of making a community spawn, worked well when the server first went up, then when the new spawn was made, a few builds where made, but a fair amount of plots where left either empty or half finished. :(

There where quite a few good 'team' builds on the older server, like the empire state building, huge stadiums, events (monster bash, catacombs, team builds), the PvP arena etc.

Would probably be more fun if the community was left to actually make some of them without them being spawned in either. :o
 
I think the idea is with MVP that we can have several worlds on the go at once so we can have a pvp world, a creative world even a flat test world for team builds which can then be copied in to the main world.

So far I have been in a world that is the current live map linked to two other worlds one is the old vanilla world and the other a "whole new world". moving around them doesn't seem to cause any issues either.

Speaking of the empire state building I guess this is what a few of you want to see soon.

This is currently only in a test world and not on the live world

Is there anybody about who can test something for me ?

Trying to set up a small server for my 9 year old to play with his mates. I just want a server away from the swearing general public where they can play by themselves, and crucially, can't go wrecking other adults hard work :p

If i post the IP can somebody test they can connect to it please ? i think i've got port forwarding set up correctly and join it internally, but can't test external.

make sure you add the names of all that join to the whitelist doc and then in the server settings set whitelist to true. That will keep anyone bar who you let off the server.

Also while your are about it Mr.Lol come join the Linktart server
