Today (12/28/2014) we plan to finally update to 1.8. The server will be down while we perform the maintenance. We will begin around noon (EST), more information will be posted at facebook.com/craftingcrafterserver as we update. The update shouldn't take more then 15 minutes to an hour, during that time the server may be white-listed, offline, or online open for everyone, just be prepared for periodic downtime within the maintenance time.
In the off chance that some critical error is found and we have to revert back to what we are running as I'm writing this post, I created a fresh backup of the server just in case anything does go wrong.
Update (12/29/2014): We have updated and everything seems to be running smoothly! Report all bugs you may find to us please!
FAQ:
Will I lose anything, what will be changed?
No, you will probably not notice that much of a difference given we already allow you to use most of the 1.8 features. You will not lose anything, we are not resetting anything, just updating!
Can I find ocean temples now?
Yes! We will be expanding both our faction and survival world borders out by an extra 2,000 blocks, inside the newly generated chunks you will be able to find the new stones, temples, mobs and everything else 1.8.
Particle update:
Players will see there are now around 5 new particles in each of the particle categories!
Survival Games update:
This update is part of some of the big plans we said we had. This is a completely new and updated Survival Games plugin. There is better spectating, better game play, care packages, sponsoring other players as a spectator, a coin system, the list goes on. This will also be running as soon (or shortly after) as the update is live.
VIP's will automatically get double coins! People will be able to purchase coins in our Buycraft shop along with kits and other perks for the SG plugin once they are released.
We are in the balance of balancing care packages, the coin system, and other aspects of the plugin. If you would like to tell us your opinion on things you do or don't want changed email us at craftingcrafter@gmail.com.
Skyblock update:
We have updated our skyblock plugin to the latest version because of some errors that popped up when testing. In this updated version both normal and donor shops have been disabled. The developers of the skyblock plugin plan to add them in again soon. Until then you can use the "/chc open perks.yml" command while in skyblock to open the normal shop, and for donors, "/chc open donor.yml" to open the donor shop.
Factions command update:
In 1.8, the factions plugin has updated the way land claiming works. Instead of "/f claim", there are multiple sub-commands such as "/f claim o", which only claims the one chunk you are in.
It should be quick and simple to learn.
They may have edited other things in the plugin, but nothing I found immediately upon testing.
If you find a bug with factions please report it to us at craftingcrafter@gmail.com
New spawn compass:
In the spawn area, the compass menu now looks much nicer! It also has some quick links and information about the server that you may find useful.
Mob Cash:
Players will now be able to gain in-game money for killing Guardians and Endermites.
Yes, I know there are probably many more questions, ask the staff in-game!
