I think it would be fun to have a tour of our world again.
I would be tempted to have an evening where we flip the server to the mode which allows us to fly and then have an aerial tour of our structures in short order. We could obviously then flip it back to survival at the end.
There's several things I haven't seen but it just takes so damned long to travel between them lol.
if we could get the dam map thing sorted it would make things easier as i have got lost a few times... but i agree sometimes flying in minecraft can be quite good fun and a tour would be nice as ive never been to happy castle
i had best get finishing something then!
Happy castle puts our castle to shame dad
I've checked and there is a mod which we can temporarily set to allow flying.
Obviously creative mode allows flying but if we activated that for a night we'd have to trust everyone not to suddenly give themselves a gazillion resources!
The other option is for people to list what they'd like to include on the tour then give us the co-ordinates and we can just teleport from one to t'other. However flying would open up much better viewing angles.
Even without the map we can probably navigate using the map as it is.
well if we are being shown round by the creators of the structure then they will hopefully know roughly how to get there from anywhere
I'm up for this, would be good to have a Birdseye view of stuff
Don't think swapping to creative is a good idea though unless we all stick together
As we don't have a GL for this game currently I'll get it organised.
I'll talk to OB about uploading a Mod which let's one fly in Survival mode which can then be removed. Then no problems with having to go creative.
You can add fly, I seem to remeber without also giving people the ability for people to get silly resources :)
Fine then.
We'll sort this out and come up with a date.
I think it'll be quite fun.
as do I :)

I dont think mine are up for looking at, although I do have the lone stone in the middle of some grass near the aircraft carrier..took me age to build that
I do though have the most northerly run in the nether by quite a way..takes 15 mins from the village hub to get to the end..all on tracks as well

Corren fun house and extras.
Gortex temple and sonic
Atlantus
Just a few to name.
Happy Castle - but all are doomed who dare enter it's stoney walls.
The Port - I can't remember it's name and it was something of a collective effort.
I installed Minecraft but oddly couldn't connect to the server, not sure why. maybe I am running the wrong version 1.8.9?
As mentioned happy to pop back in but I can't get onto teh server at the moment. I'll twiddle with knobs and push buttons and see what happens.
i think it is still 1.80...
but here is a thought if we downgrade it to 1.79 and get the map back, what issues would it cause, cant really find anything on google to see if there would be any issues, maybe the nether would reset,but hey if that happens cant we just use a back up to recoever. And to be honest id play it more if there was a map still and it was the kids who asked for 1.8 and they havent been on recently
Just spent the last couple of hours researching and searching for ways to get the map working. If you remember it broke when Microsoft (the new owners of MC) issued a DCMA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) takedown request to Bukkit/Spigot etc. as their versions of the MC server (which allow plugins such as map, lockable chests etc.) infringed copyright. Bukkit, Spigot et al all obeyed of course and, like everyone else running a server with plugins, we were cut-off from the binaries we needed and had to resort to a vanilla server.
So now some good news ...
I think I've sourced everything I need to get us back to where we were before the MS axe fell :D
I will spend the next couple of evenings trying to get it all working so expect the MC server to be offline for a while. I will backup everything before starting so worse case scenario is we run as we are now.
I am going to go for the 1.8.7 build which is the latest version as of now. Please be aware that it is very unlikely that our server will ever go beyond this version so upgrade your client at your peril.
If this all works then flying should be a breeze :D
defo 2 thumbs there mate :thumbsup:
yes, that's fantastic. Thanks Oldie.
Server running v1.8.7 Spigot with Dynmap plugin.

Thank you OB you da man!! :thumb:
Yup fantastic.
Another winner out of the OB stable.
I'm up for this, I missed my chance as most ppl have stopped paying :)
I have a little farmstead south-east of the spawn village. Nothing much to look at but it's home.
You'll have to have a ride on the Atlantian wooden Roller Coaster, I still need to finish part2 of that.
And of course, there is a submarine out there somewhere as well.
Any more for any more?
"...My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.â€
the Airport next to happy tower
I can confirm that Oldie has managed to install a 'fly' mod into Minecraft which will allow us to run fly-pasts. Yay and thanks!.
I'll collate the list of sites and then post up a poll for some Thursday nights and we'll get this off the ground (literally).
:)
Reminder minecraft flyby is tonight at 8pm
Please meet at dMw Village at 8pm sharp. If you're too far away then don't worry and we'll teleport you but please make it back if you can.
