Hey there!

For all of YOU who love Vincent as much as I do: I got some good news!
I'm working on a new Spawn and the Server will be back online soon (even though it needs some Plugin work etc.)
I also asked Sk to install some nicer Elevator Plugin and a "Train"- Plugin with which you can link carts to each other!

1.2 is coming out very soon. As applies to Vincent:
  • We're going to try to bring up a 1.2 final server ASAP and will report shortly on that.
  • There will be a new world.
  • You will be able to bring over buildings and items from the old world, but this will not be available immediately (due to technical reasons). For the first few days (or week, or for however long it takes), this won't be available, so you can play Minecraft "like the good old days." If you don't want to, then please wait until we can boot up the other world so you can get your stuff.

James will be available at a later time. Alice is not seeing an update to 1.2 for some time.

The issue with Equivalent Exchange is that if you play the game and use that route, it makes IndustrialCraft2 and BuildCraft fairly obsolete. In an effort to balance out things, the following changes have been made:
  • Only the following items have EMC now (though some listed below may have none, in which case you should report the issue):
    • Lava blocks
    • Gold
    • Iron
    • Diamonds
    • Gold blocks
    • Iron blocks
    • Diamond blocks
    • Redstone
    • Bricks
    • Mossy stone
    • Mycelium
    • Lily pads
    • Diamonds
    • Lava buckets
    • Ghast tears
    • Blaze rods
    • Blaze powder
    • Magma cream
    • Coal
    • Log
    • Gunpowder

  • At the moment, you cannot transmute to redstone or gunpowder.
  • The Gem of Eternal Density is disabled temporarily.

If you would like to request an item to have an EMC value, please do so.

A minor update has been pushed. It does not require a new client version.
  • Weather (rain and snow) is less common.
  • Snow is now more brutal and will wipe out torches and plant life (not trees, however).
  • Item leaks are now taken care of automatically and dropped items may be removed as necessary. Generally your more valuable armor items will not be lost if items are wiped, but there are no guarantees.
  • You can now craft Advanced Machines back into regular IC2 machines by putting the Advanced Machines in a crafting grid (alone).

In order to balance out Equivalent Exchange on Alice as well as to reduce the chance of significant troublemaking, some changes had to be made:
  • Philosopher's Stone can no longer produce sand
  • Destruction Catalyst is now without function
  • Hyperkinetic Lens is now without function
  • Catalytic Lens is now without function
  • Evertide Amulet is now without function
  • Volcanite Amulet is now without function

We may turn on some of these features in the future, but only once we've considered them thoroughly.

We're happy to announce that Alice is now running Minecraft 1.1, in addition to new versions of IndustrialCraft2 and Forestry. Railcraft and Equivalent Exchange are now part of the pack, allowing you to build awesome rail networks and dabble in some Minecraft alchemy. However, Advanced Machines is no longer functional, and while your existing machines are still there, they do not work correctly. We will be providing recipes to convert your machines back to their IndustrialCraft2 equivalents, but we recommend switching to vanilla IC2 equivalents with overclockers for new machines. Also, please be aware that you may have to re-charge your tools and armor in order for them to continue working.

Vincent and James are still temporarily offline, but we should have a complete copy of your work up to the point of server shutdown. We are still awaiting some servers to arrive that we have been hoping to move onto, but if it does not come later this week, Vincent will likely be brought online at a temporary location.

Applications have been temporarily paused to handle the recent string of issues, but will resume shortly.

Alice has been updated with new versions of Minecraft (to 1.1), new version of mods, and new mods. However, things seem to have gone unexpectedly south and the server is down until we can hotfix some errors.

In the mean time, chat with us over IRC:
  • Server: irc.rizon.net
  • Channel: #skcraft

If you do not have an IRC client, use this:http://skq.me/irc/irc.rizon.net/skcraft

Alice is back again! I think it's BoJaN's fault that the server keeps breaking.
