SMP Server Migration

Announcements
#1

We have found a new host and are currently in the process of moving to a new server. It is located in Dallas, Texas. The IP address will be posted within the next day once everything is running nicely. We have access to 3 CPU cores and hopefully this time most of our problems can be solved. The entire map, items and player stats will all be moved across.

On another note, running a minecraft server can cost quite a bit over a period of time. If anyone is willing to contribute even $1 a month it would help quite a bit. Our aim is to eventually be able to further upgrade the server capabilities.

But for now, putting a server up for all to enjoy is the main concern.

#2

I will probably donate at least $50 after we migrate to Hawaii. I’m going to take a part-time job there, and probably earn $10-$20 a day.

I hope most of our problems, especially the lag problem will be fixed with the new server.

#3

HEY HEY! IMA B SO LAG FREE. Dallas is not that far from where i live!

#4

Is the server gonna update to 1.4 when it goes online?

#5

Most likely, yes.

#6

So, does anybody have any idea when the update will come out?

#7

It’s out RIGHT NOW.

#8

We’re currently having some technical difficulties with the setup and are now waiting for the support team to respond and rectify the issue. Sorry for the delay.

Provided that there are no major issues with 1.4, yes

#9

A temporary vanilla server (ie. no plugin) has been setup with our map and settings in the mean time. Until the new server is up, anything goes - as the new server will be using a previous backed-up version.

tldr: grief to your hearts content

#15

Please don’t burn the entire world down though. The incredible CPU strain I believe crashed the server while I was asleep - not to mention it overloads the CPU for a prolonged amount of time and leads us back to the original problem of potentially being suspended :confused:

Edit: Confirmed. Fire has crashed the server 3 times now

#16

just to add, most of it was goneby the time i got there…
<.<

.>

but yeah there wasnt much going on when i was there, only me and fireknife were there, with some random guests who didnt have flint and iron i think…

#17

so when the server is fully fixed, it will go back to the state it was before?

i hope so… with griefing, fires, me getting exploded so many times by creepers…

xD
