Vincent has been updated to Minecraft 1.10! The mining world was also reset so you can find all the new worldgen (bone structures, etc.)

Want to know what's new in MC 1.10?
Posted June 8, 2016
We will be updating Vincent to Minecraft 1.10 as soon as it becomes feasible (the server software updates and things stabilize). Any unexplored chunks will receive new world generation, and these new chunks will seamlessly blend in with existing terrain.

The mining world will be reset as well so that we have a full experience of the new changes made to the world generation.

For a list of changes and additions in Minecraft 1.10, see redstonehelper's Reddit post.

The servers will be under temporary server maintenance and offline as we finish a migration of the database and website.

Update 1: Vincent is back up.
Update 2: Ivan is back up. Update required.

  • Added:Right clicking a sign with a URL on it will print that URL in chat so you can click on it.
  • Added: Gold blocks under tracks will change passing carts into high speed carts capable of moving at a significantly increased speed. Grey wool blocks, on the other hand, will change high speed carts back into normal speed carts.
  • Added: Gold blocks under signs adjacent to track will display the message on the sign as a title rather than in chat.
  • Added: Sneak right clicking an Enderpearl will now let you teleport to another player (after they accept your request).
  • Added: You can now stack [Shop] signs up to 3 blocks above a chest.
  • Changed: The MapPad homing function now acts instantly as a workaround for the freeze bugs.
  • Fixed: Shops now work with trapped chests.

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.

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

Vincent has been updated with many — but not all — of the mods from the previous Vincent, some of which include enderpearl teleportation, capturing passive animals, TNT fishing, colored names. However, CraftBook is currently not available and there's no replacement yet.

We also have a world map that you can view, which you can get to using Vincent 1.9's server page in the future.

You can also now invite friends and family again using the /invite command in chat.

NOTE: There may be a bug that causes mobs in a chunk to become unresponsive and items to become unpickup-able. If this happens, please report it.

Vincent 1.9 is up with a brand new world. If you need to invite a friend to the server, message sk89q on Discord or on here.

We're currently at around 0, 0 with a small house. There are no mods on the server at the moment. There is a whitelist. Difficulty is on normal for now, and mob griefing is off as usual.

You can get into Vincent using our launcher, but you will need to update the launcher (click the update launcher button in the launcher) before it can download MC 1.9.
