Hello All!
The Server will be coming down in roughly 30 minutes from when this post is on the front page. These changes will take time so the server could be up and down a lot during this time.
Some planned Changes & Additions to the SMP Server:
- PvP Map moved to another server (Same Map)
- Updated and Improved Creative to its Live State
- Reset Creative Servers Map
- Lowered Teleport delay
- Updated Plugins
- All Servers running on updated Software
- Changed IRC Plugin.
- Added Science (Interserver portals)
- Moved player PvP Inventories to the PvP Server.
- Simple Clans is back!
This update is aimed to help fix a lot of issues and increase server performance by splitting up the maps and the back end files.
More informing as this proccess unfolds
Any questions, just post in the thread and either me or a staff member will answer .
#Update: Backups were made, data was moved around. Servers Should be operational before the weekend is over. Its a matter of sorting through the plugins and putting data in the right place.
#Update2: Due to extra issues, PvP has not been brought online yet but SMP is still going strong!

Bump
Yay! but, why all of a sudden is there going to be two servers again and will PVP be whitelist server?
Oh and will KDR's reset?
Will this bring back the mobs to SMP?

PvP will be non whitelsit again.
This will hopefully solve quite a few problems, like people teleporting away from fights in pvp, and the lack of mobs in smp. Only way to know is to wait till it's done so we can all see.
I Hope It Goes Well! And Good Luck With The Server Updating! :D
few questions, sounds fun, what are the simple clans? Will the science portal thingys make it so that we can move m p to smp without exiting and joining the other server?Same thing with creative? And do the plugin updates have any major changes? Will the mob arenas work now?
Cant wait to try!
Im assuming this will take a while. Are we talking a few hours? As long as everything is fixed, take as long as you need.
Simple clans just meaning it's a simple clans plugin. You can make/join clans. And possible get a clan home. Science portals would mean you can move between the servers without logging out and back in, but instead by going through a portal. Most of the plugin updates will probably have a slim/almost unnoticable effect on you guys, so i wouldn't worry about that.
@Super I would guess 1 hour minimum, to anywhere in the next 48 hours. Meaning i have no idea. Just have to wait and see.
If anyone else has questions, ask them here, or go ask on womirc for a faster (and probably more correct) answer
Ok, thanks Jupiter
Will the clans we had last time still be active?
Will the ender-chests in pvp be in the new server? and will the stuff in it be transported to it?
Clans you had before will no be active. Ender chests will probably be moved.
Report update, just to say Snow, I tested the plugin simpleclans and all the command is different now, which means all the /clans probably wont work since in the game it said unknown command, then I looked in teh console no errors then I looked in the bukkit plugins area and it was in there the folder and everything the only thing different with that update they did with SimpleCLans is they renamed the folder to:
SimpleClans2
It makes me think they edited it a lot that's probably why they haven't edited all the other versions because they was to busy re writing the code.
This will hopefully solve quite a few problems, like people teleporting away from fights in pvp. What do you mean by that? I dont understand it
So will there BE enderchests and the stuff we had from them?
@jupiter_gingerThis will hopefully solve quite a few problems, like people teleporting away from fights in pvp. What do you mean by that? I dont understand it
i think they mean that you cant use /smp to get away anymore when your in pvp.
We can still exit out of MC.
thats when you add the plugin that kills you when you log out.or you can install one that once your in combat a "invisable force field" so to say prevents you from going back into spawn.
added an update
I can't get on '~'
I realise you no longer have a need for it, but maybe just clear the map once a day and let players go to town on it.
im actually on the stress server now, since the normal server isnt up -.-
@iusedapick with no warps or smp, there would be nowhere to teleport to. If logging out to avoid fights, becomes a problem, the combat logging plugin could solve that.
Answered all of these. Check here to see if your question is here.
Please dont add the combat logging thing! I lag so much when i pvp i always have to relog!
How long is this gonna be? Its my favorite server and i dont know what to do on other servers
i would like to know the answer to that as well...
Latest news I've heard was that it would be done before the weekend ended. That's probably at a minimum. If nothing goes wrong.
so probably not anytime today then...
*goes to play super smash bros. brawl*
I wonder if, invisibility still gonig to be available and if so, why?
Invisibility potion? Why would that not be available in smp?
grime had a problem with someone using ivis potion to stalk him and kill his wolves as he traveled and open and close his doors and such. I think Grime doesn't want to be stalked in the future.
I tried asking Snow about the invisible potion issue but I was unable to convince him to do anything about it.
Why is the server still not up yet?
Because it's not done obviously.
does this update adresse the dupping issue
How much longer will it be down?
When snow comes back, he still has some more to do with it, if you look at the original post, he says hopefully before the end of the weekend.
does this update adresse the dupping issue
Yes
How much longer will it be down?
Stop being impatient
oh ya i forgot. i hope you step on a lego
not you lunick but anyone impatient
Added realtime to-do list to the main post.
"Soon" does not imply any particular date, time, decade, century, or millennia in the past, present, and certainly not the future. "Soon" shall make no contract or warranty between MrSnowGlobe and the end user. "Soon" will arrive some day, MrSnowGlobe does guarantee that "soon" will be here before the end of time. Maybe. Do not make plans based on "soon" as MrSnowGlobe will not be liable for any misuse, use, or even casual glancing at "soon."
Hmm well according to the list the first thing that will be done will be the PVP server hopefully... Fore it is the most complete
