BIG D MINECRAFT

NEWS

15/09/2014 - New IP: 104.129.128.27 this should now be our permanent home. We get about ~180ms ping, which is a considerable improvement to out last one. Hope you guys notice the difference.

 

13/09/2014 - MODPACK UPDATE. GOING LIVE AT 10:00PM AEST. Technic Launcher should update it automatically for you guys. Added Project Red: Mechanical. Those of you that are using the shaderpacks might need to reinstall them, not sure how technic handles that yet

 

10/09/2014- Server up. We are still running our old modpack becuase Mojang hit Bukkit with a DMCA notice, shutting them down. This means that we cannot get new plugins. As a result, my plans to host a 1.7.2 have ground to a halt. So we are running the exact same server just on a new machine.

 

BIGD MINECRAFT - LA - NOW RUNNING

Server Address: 104.129.128.27

This is our NEW server hosted in LA. 64bit Linux (Debian), 64GB HDD, 4GB RAM. Got a great deal for this VPS in LA for a cheap price. Ping wont be an issue, its Minecraft!

 

INSTALLING JAVA 7

Java SE Development Kit 7 - Downloads | Oracle Technology Network | Oracle

 

INSTALLING THE MODS

Download the Technic Launcher: Technic Launcher -

  1. Technic Platform
  2. Run / Install
  3. Enter your Mincraft details.
  4. Select "Add new pack" on the left
  5. PASTE THE FOLLOWING URL: http://www.technicpack.net/api/modpack/bigd-gaming
  6. Select the BigD modpack
  7. Press play (may be required to wait for the install, could take some time)
  8. Join server

INSTALLING BETTER SHADERS

Download this zip, and copy the contents to .technic/modpacks/bigd-gaming

https://www.dropbox.com/s/mizpz81xl7awj9m/shader_upgrade.zip?raw=1

 

In game, hit escape -> shaders > Select one of the backs ultra or standard. It will require some fiddling around in your video settings to make everything perfect.

 

Google "Sonic Ethers Shaders" and "Optifine" if further help needed.

NOTE: YOU WILL LIKELY NEED TO REINSTALL THE SHADERS FOR EACH NEW MODPACK!

Having an issue with connecting to the server. It says I can't reach it. Is the server still up, or am I just doing it wrong?

joined ok but cant do anything

says i dont have permission for that in the area.

Also are their plans for it to be true survival without having access to everything or just keep it open to build as we like.

You will need to walk about 200 blocks away from spawn to do anything. I am pushing a new update via Technic Launcher too. I will let you know when the server is up and running again.

 

It is planned to be true survival at this point. The server cant handle much else right now.

Its a problem with Technic launcher.

yeah worked it out.

 

One thing that needs to be done is make it easy for all who want to join to understand what they need to do.

I have had to load the launcher a few times to get it to download everything and then recognise that it needs to download the mod pack.

It's still sort of a work in progress. Today has been really the only day I have been able to have people on and properly stress testing the system. Over the past week it has only been one person...me :p . Possibly expect more updates this week, although hopefully the 1.0.3 version I just pushed should be stable enough.

 

I will keep tweaking the server this week to ensure its stability.

Having advanced OpenGL on causes it to crash. Is this a minecraft issue or a mod issue

TP-ing home also crashed me

Installing the modpack now, hopefully she's good to run

 

quite drunk so hopefully good

Wondering if the safe zone of 200 blocks causes lag issues. The further away people are the more chunks the server has to load and run.

and creepers and lag are never a good mix

I have just addressed that then. Installed a plugin that will unload unnecessary chunks. The server however only lags when it has to generate new chunks. Most of the chunkes within 400 of the spawn have already been generated.

 

Right now we are bottlenecked at 1.5GB of RAM. My only option at this point is to start pulling out mods to reduce the toll.

yup good work joe, a launcher setup like this is crucial for any new players to just get in and play before just the setup turns them away.

:(When swimming in sh!t, best keep your chin up!

Server has been restarted. At about 12:00pm Brisbane time I will be pushing a new update removing some of the unnecessary mods. Biomes o Plenty is being removed, which unfortunately means a world restart. You will be reimbursed if you had anything important on you.

 

Sorry folks, thanks for putting up with us ;)

I was way to drunk/hungover to do anything last night Joe. Will give it a go later today.
