I'm getting a 503 - meaning that Notch's servers are down/overloaded. Seems to be the issue. Unfortunately there's nothing I can do about that. Edit: Looks like there may have been server maintenance at the host too. Could be the problem some of you had. Edit2: I'll keep trying throughout the day - I don't believe this is related to the update, but it could be.

Back up. Updated to hMod 134 Alpha 16. Craftbook also updated. Please report any problems you notice. This does fix the wool issue.

Having issues with minecraft client - server update postponed temporarily. EDIT: Server Temporarily Down For Maintenance.

Fire being looked into. Recipes for reference: grass:3*3,6*2:2*2 snow:20*3,35*1:78*64 bonemeal:5*1,13*1:352*2 These are mc item codes (http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Data_values) so they translate to: Grass: 3 dirt, 2 saplings Snow: 3 glass, 1 wool Bonemeal: 1 wood plank. 1 gravel

I'm alive and have internet access. Current issues: Noble: Has been reinstated. I feel that his written apology has demonstrated a strong sense of remorse. After our first banning, the unwritten policy was that it could be undone if we felt there was strong apology - so I am following that here too. Plus, I like to think the best of people. Glitch at spawn - the server hadn't been restarted since I left the states. I believe this was a likely root cause. Server has since been restarted Several ranks have been fixed/updated. Tools are restocked More to come.

He has been moved to vacation. While very productive in his building, he had been walking on thin ice for a while (due to previous actions). Since he understood the risk he was taking, his works are effectively abandoned and returned to nature. Don't grief his buildings or works. Just because he is gone does not mean it is acceptable. On the otherhand, if there is something you wish to building upon or work with, it seems perfectly acceptable to me. To me it would seem to courteous way to make some reference to his contributions (signs, perhaps). I'll leave the details/claims up to you all though. (Note: something like his appartment buildings, with pieces of them already distributed, should probably be left alone)

A huge thank you to Pronam for getting this updated when I couldn't. I'm traveling to Australia over the next week or so, and may only be online sporadically. Feel free to message me, but my replies may be delayed (as they have been for the last week). A thank you also to Richard for bringing it to my attention. (Though I don't think you are reading this thread. ;) )

Has anyone else been having problems connecting to minecraft.net (logging in to minecraft)?

Looks like that attempt failed. I had tried to enable mobs but control them with Cuboid - so that you could turn mobs on in localized areas if you wanted them. I can do it on dialup - but its a major pain. Anything above that will probably work just fine for you. Might take a little bit to load initially though.

Check PM ub3r Alonso the sheep herder! I like it. You just won yourself a title (should you not object). Edit: By the way, I made it all the way to 39% of lwjgl.jar before my connection died!

I'd be on some, but I bug out on my connection before my update can complete. Soon . . . soon . . . soon it will complete

Mostly, yes. There are also a couple of other server mods/wrappers that may be worth considering. http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Server_mods If we take it as given that we want to retain the world as is (and simply travel further outwards for dies - perhaps with a warp), or best bet is probably to wait on Bukkit. In the meantime we can either keep it running the previous update (as it is now) or move to the most recent update in a new world. (Perhaps with McAdmin? - I believe it has been updated for the recent release)

The time it takes for the update to download on dialup is horrendous.

Unfortunately I don't know Ub3r.

Server will be running the December 22nd update until Bukkit/Hey0 is updated to match Notch's update. Downgrading your client to play on previous server revisions

I hope you have an absolutely great time there. Maybe they could add you as a character. ;)

Update3: FIXED Looks like a corrupted level.dat file was the cause of our mishaps. I've reverted to the previous version and things seem to be running smoothly. Inventories may have been reset and there may be some other small glitches - keep your eyes peeled.

Update 2: Almost definitely a corruption within the world. Looking into the source. In the meantime, a new world is up. If I can find the problem, the old world will be back up. Otherwise we will have to revert to the Jan 8th backup file. Edit: By the way, I am impressed. We hit 115mb in size for a zipped backup file.

Notch is making me a cake for my birthday? :D Server: Something got tweaked. Looking into it now. Server is running, but won't load the world correctly. More to follow as I learn. Sounds like these pointer problems have cropped up before - for other servers.

Admin/mod.

Cuboid is working. If you want to protect or restrict access to an area, it is now possible to do so. No unreasonably large requests please. Also, the details are still being worked out.

Multiplayer is very similar to singleplayer in my opinion. It can be quite nice to build with other players though. Katashy: http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=42259 The server's up. Sounds like you're having an authentication issue instead.

Cuboid is up and in the testing stage right now. Don't expect it to be working perfectly right away. Enter /cprivate in the talk box. Then make your first click after that a left click on the chest you want to use. Vagrant - no one's accusing you of negligence in setting up your island. Obviously no one here wanted it to be griefed, and if we had seen it happen they would have been kicked and banned.

Ugh, I hate detective work. Why can't we all just get along? Especially when some people (cough, cough, no names ...) have miles of tunnels I need to check through. ;) Please do report any and all problems like this though. It all brings up a good point - one which I had hoped to avoid - chest protection. LWC (Mhttp://forum.hey0.net/showthread.php?tid=837) has now been added (finally some will say). You need to be a regular member of the server to protect a chest. Use the command /cprivate to create a private chest. Use /cpassword (password) to create a password protected chest. Lets see how this works. (Note: You may not have to enter a password if you already entered one, or if you have mods powers). Cuboid is also in the works. And yes - f/s and tnt are disabled. Lava buckets are also disabled as of now.

I was pretty certain tree growth got fixed in November update. Sure you had enough light and space? Could also be that you need to move away from the area for the growth to occur. I'm not certain. Edit: And yes, mobs are definitely glitched. They took two server restarts to stop spawning. I found that out the hard way, after going AFK for a couple of minutes. The one thing that did seem to work though, was daytime death. It might be possible to force server daytime - so that mobs would only spawn in caves. I'm a little wary of trying this out though.
