MLP: Minecraft - Page 40

Camail, darling, you know full well when I talked about terribad OC designs, I was meaning things like "Cyborg Winged Pegasus" and "Red/Black Alicorn with dragon eyes that excretes musk that makes the Mane 6 instantly fall in love with him".

Hey all. I've been super busy with work and the beginnings of school. I hope everyone remembers me and understands I still love Liquestria. At the moment, I'm taking a hiatus from Minecraft as I wait for all 3 of my servers I enjoy playing on (including this one) to become either 1.3.1 ready or a new map (of course depending on which of my servers I'm talking about). So far my personal server is the only one in that category due to its vanilla-ness and its low player count. I can't wait to start building again with the new magic of 1.3.
Live long and pony on, guys!

Love and Tolerate

Introduction:Hey, i'm iGrok. I've taken a bit of a break from MC, but I want to get back into it and, knowing my friend GMarshal loves MLP, I figured I'd give this a shot. I've played mostly PvP servers but always taken the constructive role on them (I build the base while our team went out and fought). You guys seem to love the same stuff about MC that I do - really looking forward to (hopefully) playing with you - if I can get this launcher to work.

I just finished an extensive overhaul of the help system. Type /help in-game to get started. The help pages link to each other quite well. If you have any suggestions for stuff that should be added, let me know.

Made a tweak/addition to the spawn platform - it now actually fills the role as a spawn platform, complete with a "help desk" that I can build on should I want to. Design's about the same, though.

@iGrok: Your application looks great. None of my Shadowbolts have been online to discuss it with, but it's not really necessary. To be honest, you had me at "friend of GMarshal".

Added. I'm about to go to bed (long-ass freaking day), but you can take the automatic tour in-game if you want. Check out the spawn platform - clicking on the signs there gets you on you way. I'll have a better one set up later, but for now it'll suffice. Don't be surprised if the server's empty for several days still, though. This happens every Minecraft update, and our community's been busy with all kinds of other games.

If you have any questions, ask one of our Shadowbolts, or in IRC, or wait until I wake up.

Welcome to the server, mate, glad to have you. P.S.: We have a Ventrilo if you want to talk with us, entirely optional.

Bedtime.

Hey, I know that guy. Well not because of GMarshal but because of Proderp. Hi iGrok!

Bukkit finally updated (it went straight from 1.2.5 to 1.3.1). Vital plugins will be making the switch over the coming few days. Still no good estimate of server update, but this is pretty much what I was waiting for. Will be looking into updating as soon as possible, but it could still take a week before our region plugins make the switch.

Another long day of working on plugins (new stuff, not updating the server just yet). It's getting to the point now where I can start taking fairly big suggestions about stuff to add to the server, or changes to the classes or whatever, so if you have any cool ideas, let's hear it. I'm still limited by what the plugins can do, but I can do a lot more now than back in the day.

As always, let me know if there are any problems. I've mostly been working on administrative tools, but still. =)

I've been incredibly busy working on the third TLP My Little Pony Mare-A-Thon, which airs this very weekend. Once the event has concluded (and after a couple of days of freaking sleep), I'll be hard at work setting the Minecraft server back up. I mean, we've got this thing, so we might as well use it.

ETA: About a week to a week and a half, and I promise to do my best to hold to that time frame.

Thanks for the update Cane

With all the stuff you get up to in the name of awesomeness you're really something else.

Aww, much <3, glad it's appreciated! The marathon is coming to a close, so it's recuperating followed by MLP: Minecraft. We'll see how long it takes me!

Let me know if there's anything you need or would like me to help with.

All right, quick update:

Minecraft 1.4.4 came out not too long ago, and as a result there are certain plugins that haven't quite updated yet. I'll need to look for replacements, as well as get in touch with a few plugin authors before I can set things back up.

And, of course, the item repair mod doesn't work any more. We've never had problems getting an item repair mod working before, so this is completely new territory for me.

+ Show Spoiler +

Edit: Okay, things are really stupid in Minecraft land right now. This is pretty much the most chaotic it has ever been.

First: We are right smack in the middle of a massive hotfix period (1.4.5 was released as I was working on 1.4.4), and Bukkit has not yet updated accordingly (still on 1.3.X). They have a dev version which I will be checking out, but it's not stable and it's only really to test plugin compatibility. The 1.4.4 version they were working on has been decommissioned and labeled "broken" under the download section. Until Bukkit releases an actual build, I won't be able to give any kind of ETA.

Second: Spout. It has been integrated into the Minecraft code (more plugin functionality out of the box at the expense of a lengthy era of what-the-fuck-is-going-on), and as a result there's all kinds of Spout-extra plugins that are also in the same period. Dev versions galore.

In short, it's kind of a mess. I can only make backups and get a few things ready until Bukkit updates, and (subsequently) everything else.

I'm currently testing a dev build, and so far it's running quite well. No opinions on stability yet (I haven't had it up for more than 10 minutes at a time while working on adding plugins), but it seems fine, minus a few plugins that I need to wait for. Most of the plugins work like a charm, although I had to get rid of a few, and hold off on updating one or two of them.

I think I'll put this up today with the disclaimer that I don't yet know how well it will run. First impressions are good, but I'm sure there will be bugs after a few hours of play.

ETA: A few hours.

It felt great being back on the server again. Made me remember how much I love this game.
Cane, you are so awesome <3

Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable~~

1.4.5 (dev build) is LIVE!
Update your Minecraft, then download this archive.

The .zip file contains Mine Little Pony (the MLP models) and the Zombe fly mod in one convenient package.
Installation instructions can be found in the OP if you need them, but most of you know how to do it by now.

Important notes:

This is a dev build. As such, there may be the occasional bug, and I cannot yet attest to the stability of the server. Everything does seem fine and operational right now, but if you do encounter a problem, let me know.

Not much has changed in terms of gameplay, but there are a few plugins missing right now where I am either waiting for an update, or actively looking for a replacement.

The important one right now is Backpack, which you will not be able to access for a few days. Backpack requires Spout to work, and Spout hasn't updated yet. I'm waiting for both, then it should be back and working as usual.
ETA: No idea, depends on Spout, but shouldn't be more than a few days.
LavaFurnace does technically work, but it was spamming my server console with a message that I could not get rid of. I am waiting for an update to fix this bug (it should be no more than a few days also), but if no update is forthcoming I will add it and just deal with the personal aggravation of console spam.
ETA: By next weekend, tops.
Blacksmith is also gone (see a pattern here, Earth Ponies?), and this one is problematic -- I don't know if we can get it back. The freaking repair mods have always given us grief, so this is nothing out of the ordinary. I'll look for a replacement, and until then I will be handling repair duties personally (as long as I'm in-game).
ETA: Fuck you.

The Love & Tolerance texture pack also needs updating -- I'm waiting on Raelcun to get online to talk to him about it. There's some stuff missing right now, and the armor is messed up. We'll get it fixed asap.

I also managed to find a dev build of the Zombe fly mod. I've provided a download which includes both the Zombe fly mod (configured properly for our server) as well as Mine Little Pony (MLP models mod). Grab it here:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/29920516/tlp-minecraft-1-4-5.zip

Most of you already know what to do with it. If you're new, you can find installation instructions in the OP.

Lastly, some things in the OP are out-of-date. This obviously includes information on the Backpack and Blacksmith plugins, as well as anything else that's missing or changed. I will update it once we get a stable build set up. 95% of it is still accurate, just keep it in mind.

If something doesn't work, let me know asap so I can get to work on it.

Welcome back to Liquestria, everyone.

New repair mod!

Found one that works. Here's how:

In any crafting menu (inventory, workbench), put your damaged tool (i.e. iron pickaxe) along with the primary component material (i.e. iron ingot). The more damaged it is, the more ingots it will cost to repair.

Anyone can repair items, but Earth Ponies are more efficient at it and require fewer ingots to do so. Additionally, only Earth Ponies can keep item enchantments -- anyone else can still repair the item, but it will be disenchanted in the process. The more powerful the enchantment on the item, the more ingots it will cost to repair.

Enjoy.

Seems reasonably stable for a dev build.
