Server's restarted.

We may want to update to the newest GregTech version (for 1.4) but fusion coils have become massively cheaper in the newer versions. Therefore, Fluttermine has suggested a "refund recipe" consisting of:

• 4x highly advanced machine blocks
• 1x superconductor
• 1x energy flow circuit
• 2x tesla coils
• 1x iridium neutron reflector plate

The idea is that, before the update, you'd craft your fusion coil block into an intermediary item. After the update, a recipe is made (and the previous one removed) so that you can convert your intermediary item into the items above.
Opinions?

As you're all know, we're back in the update limbo where we can't update to the newer version of Minecraft because of one lady, author of RedPower2. RP2 isn't available for 1.5 (yet).

Therefore we have three primary choices:

1. Wait for RedPower2, then update to 1.5 (or 1.6) (edit: this is likely what we are going with)
2. Lose RedPower2 and update now to 1.5
3. Reset the worlds and update to 1.5 (& transfer builds from 1.4 to 1.5)

There's a poll on this thread; please vote on all choices that you are OK with.

The server has been restarted. It was frozen because of an infinite loop in Factorization.

It the server freezes again, then we have a problem on our hands.

To obtain dark iron, use

Update 16 requires a client update. You will be prompted to install upon logging in with the launcher.

• Fossils/Archaeology has been installed.
  • Its ore can only be found in vanilla biomes.
• Factorization has been installed!
  • The wraith lighter has been disabled because of its abusive properties. For that reason, there will be an alternate method to obtain wraith lights.
• PlayBlock (the media player) has been updated to make it more successful at installing the necessary libraries.
• The mining world has been reset as previously promised.

Join us! Ongoing now -- just get on when you can.

EDIT: It's over.

A client update is required for update 15.

• Updated PlayBlock (our movie player mod) to v1.2.0.
  • You should now be able to install VLC without much trouble, in theory.
• Changed the ID of IC2 Greg's Lighting flood lights and prevented their crafting, as the flood lights kept crashing.

Please aware that tomorrow (5/11/2013, Pacific time), the following is planned:

• The mining world will DEFINITELY be reset.
• The dinosaurs mod be added if we can get it to work.

Also of note, in the near future:

• GregTech may be updated.

The server has returned! If something happened with your stuff, please ask here.

The server will be temporarily down until I fix some things.

I need a Mac OS X user to help me test some of the media player stuff because I have no Mac OS X system myself.

Primarily it would involve using TeamViewer (a desktop sharing program, where you'd have complete control) and me trying to see how exactly I can get the media player running in a minimal number of steps.

If you can help, please post on this thread.

I'm curious if you guys would prefer if world anchors were disabled (again) in the main world, simply because keeping certain peoples' chunks loaded is fairly expensive on the server.

I'm talking a server tick rate at about 8 ticks/second going to 19 ticks/second after world anchor-loaded chunks are unloaded. Results would vary.

A compromise would be a limit of world anchors per person and also per area.

Please vote in the poll.

We have a new theater north of spawn, though it's still a bit under construction!

• The last update(s) merely updated the media player mod!

Sorry for the frequency of the updates -- hopefully we can slow that down
