Map reset? I can take it or leave it. Would rather leave it since my little setup out on the edges of the map was starting to pull together, but nothing I can't re-claim. Besides, I always felt a bit too spoiled having so much enchanted loot. A reset might make that a little more rare and although people will yell and scream, I think that's kinda the point, innit? :P
 
Was just checking the news and i saw this story. Ordnance Survey data has been used to create geographically accurate maps of 86 000 square miles of Britain. Someone rebuilt Stonehenge :lol:

Everyone should post their usual playing times on the forum. We'll use London Time since the server is in London. Maybe then we could set up events and stuff, also some members may decide to adjust their playing time to a more active time.

Good idea. I was thinking about the forum recently, it's been dead for some time now and been forgotten about by most people.
 
Very quiet. What game are all of you playing now?

Is that massive hotel going to be the next spawn DQuaN?

Yay 1.7 has dropped! Gonna go get me some umm...pretty clay ;)

(Still playing vanilla single player for now)

The fishing stuff looks cool though
 
Oh wow, I've been waiting for this, hoping that (for a little while at least) we get a bit more traffic to the server.

I'll update as soon as i can.


*edit*

Ok, we're going to keep the current world, but I've trimmed it right down so it doesn't use up too many resources (as you can see on the map).

There is no bukkit available for 1.7 yet but as soon as it's released, I'll generate a new world.

Really like the new things in 1.7. I'd almost restart my survival world just to increase my chances of encountering the new biomes, but I'm far too in to my current one. :d
 
1.7 is making me want to play again too. Not that I'm super into some of the changes, but until the next WoW X-Pac comes out, I'm a bit stuck with games to be hooked on. Only issue is I'm having trouble connecting to the server. I know it's play.torinet.eu, but is there a port? I've tried the obvious ones, 25565 and 22222 but none give me a connection.
 
I'm still waiting for a bukkit dev build. It could be a few more days yet.

Then we start building the new world!

*edit*
I've put up a temporary vanilla server.

Anyone finding boats a lot more fragile in 1.7? They seem to have fixed the issues with a lot of damage being caused by running aground, and have changed the controls somewhat (so you can stop on a dime instead of having to frantically paddle in the opposite direction) but I'm on an exploration tip and have been scooting across oceans only for my boats to break within just a few minutes. Previously they lasted ages as long as I didn't hit anything.
 
Having finally gotten my password help from Mojang, no I can finally take advantage of the post-1.5.2 things. There's a lot of stuff in these that make me want to restart my SP save from scratch... dunno about it, though,

360 version
I just made a new world last night to check out the free Halloween pack. Looks awesome! So colorful especially the green lava and I really like how the fish look like piranha. haha The pigs also turned out really good and even the red evil looking cows. I plan to eventually get the other skins in the near future.
 
We need to make a decision when we generate the new world. Should it be normal or AMPLIFIED?!
 
The new world mode. Everything is crazy mountains. Try it out in single player.

I'm thinking we'll probably go normal. Less strain on the server and clients. Also amplified would make the map look horrendous! Maybe I can try generating a really small amplified world.
 
Of course! Anyone is. It's temporarily running vanilla until bukkit gets updated so anything you build will be lost when I update.

You should still see the new biomes, depending on how far you have explored. They should generate in any as-yet unexplored areas. I've seen most of them now apart from Mesa, which seems the most interesting!
 
So @Eks says he cannot connect to the server. Everything looks fine on my end. Is anyone else having trouble connecting?
