We’ve brought back mcMMO for 1.9 to the survival server, with one small change: To activate any mcMMO ability, you will now need to sneak and right-click (whereas previously, you would have only right-clicked). You don’t need to sneak while you use the ability, just to activate it.
This was changed so as not to interfere with new 1.9 right-click abilities, and will also mean less chat spam for accidental right-clicks. For more information about mcMMO, visit their wiki page here.
We’ve all been hard at work getting the server ready for 1.9, and it’s finally here!
You will be able to enjoy all the two-handed fist-waggling and methodical sword-swinging your heart desires this Saturday Night (9/4/16) at 7PM GMT+10, when we update the server to Minecraft 1.9.2!
As you may have heard, we will not be resetting the Overworld, but we will be resetting the End to take advantage of all the new 1.9 features – and, to celebrate, we’ll be slaying the Ender Dragon as a group!
We’ll need to briefly shut down the server to set everything up first (you can hang out with us on IRC while it’s down); this should only take a few minutes.
So this Saturday night, craft yourself a shield, head to /warp dragonFight, and let’s slay some Ender Dragon! With both hands!
Update: Plugin access is now open to Donors and [1]Users
Since you’ve all been such cool cats, we’ve made a new plugin for you all to enjoy! ArtMap gives you the ability to paint directly onto a minecraft map using dyes. Currently only Donors and [2]Users will be able to paint, but this will be expanded as soon as we finish beta testing. We will be displaying any particularly awesome artworks that we see at the new /warp gallery.
For information on how to get started, head over to the ArtMap Wiki.
P.S. If you paint anything naughty, you will have your ArtMap privileges permanently revoked. Staff decide if an artwork is inappropriate, so be sensible.
If you haven’t already heard, the triumphant return of the [ACE] building competition is upon us!
