The SKCraft wiki is back online and with more information than ever (quite literally). The new (internal) format of the wiki should make keeping it up to date much easier.

I'm happy to announce that some updates have been made to Vincent.

While everyone on Vincent is pretty friendly, sometimes you want a sense of security. With this update, you can once again claim chunks if you don't want to let others touching your stuff!
  1. First, although optional, create a party using /party create party_name so you can add on others. If you already have someone to add, use /party add party_name username to add your friends.
  2. Then you'll need to tell the server where your base is, so grab some flint and left click one corner of your base, and then go to the other end and right click the opposing corner.
  3. Finally, use /claim party_name to claim those selected chunks as yours. Chunks are on a 16x16 grid and protection extends from bedrock to the sky. Just make sure your two points cover your entire base and you're good to go. The first set of chunks are free, but you may need coal if you need to claim more chunks.

Secondly, CraftBook is once again in working order. CraftBook lets you build automatic tree farms, automatic sand farms, automatic cobble generators, and much more. To see a listing of what you can do, check out its wiki. Note: We have a small addition to the pistons module where you can use "[Grind]" on a sign on a piston to turn cobble to gravel and gravel to sand.

Hey folks!

Ivan's modpack had an in-game guide, but due to some issues it could not be included. I took it upon myself to remake it in wiki form.

You can view it here!

Some things to keep in mind:
  • The wiki is read-only* and completely client-side through the wonders of JavaScript.
  • The wiki can be saved and modified *locally. No changes can be sent to the server.
  • Please let me know if any inconsistencies or errors are found!

EDIT: I fixed the pages being out of order, but you will need to hard refresh the page (Ctrl+F5) to see the changes.

(our own wiki is pretty broken, hence having to make it this way)
Check out the cool software I used to create the wiki! http://tiddlywiki.com/

Our Ivan 1.7 (expert Infinity Evolved skyblock) server is now open!



Because we're new to running skyblock servers, the server is currently in BETA. At the moment, if you manage to lose your starting items, you're sort of in trouble -- we're going to fix this ASAP. There's also not much help if you're new to skyblock, but fixing that is on the todo list!

To play, connect to ivan.sk89q.com using our launcher.

Vincent has had a server update.

Fixed:
  • MapPads
  • Free signs
  • Mining world

New:
  • 50% players sleeping (excluding idle players) should make it daylight
  • NOTE: This is not fully tested yet

It's made a return:
  • Mobs won't spawn if there is any light in the general area, so you can use fewer torches but you need to make your mob farms dark
  • NOTE: This is not fully tested yet

Not fixed yet:
  • CraftBook
  • Friends/Parties
  • Better locks

We're planning a modded skyblock planned to run in addition to Alice, but we won't be creating the modpack ourselves this time around. If you have suggestions for a name for the new server (i.e. Vincent, Alice, James, etc.) as well as a modpack that we could use, feel free to post on this thread.

The Alice server is currently marked as temporarily unavailable but that's not quite true. It's up but it currently can't handle too many players, largely because of GregTech. The server is playable, however, and you can connect to it at alice.sk89q.com. For more information, see this posting.
