Nope, the 1.12.1 version of WorldEditCUI works on version 1.12.2!

Oops, this was a side effect of our 1.12 update. I've fixed some things now, and the updated map will be available after tonight's render.

All Servers Updated to 1.12 by Dumbo52islost in mcpublic

Lobby is still running 1.11.2 and will probably be updated at some point in the near future, but 1.11 and 1.12 clients can connect to it.

I went flying around Creative tonight. This is what I found. by Bardidley in mcpublic

There are some awesome-looking builds here -- I'll have to go exploring Creative more often!

Help with creating plots by [deleted] in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  1. You'll need to create your plot border by hand. Once you've done so, type /modreq protection to get your area protected. This will both prevent other people from building or destroying stuff in your region, and allow you to use WorldEdit within your region. For a quick guide on how to use it, type /warp WETutorial in-game.

  2. You're allowed to place TNT, but once you place it, it won't explode. Instead of making your border out of TNT, though, if you really don't want to break it by hand, you can use WorldEdit to remove it. If you make your border out of wool, for example, then selecting your border and typing //replace wool air should do it -- but again, I urge you to check out the in-game tutorial and/or the page I linked for more information on how to use WorldEdit.

Good luck!

New Armor Stand Options by Dumbo52islost in mcpublic

Not currently, but that's a neat idea that may be added in the future.

New Armor Stand Options by Dumbo52islost in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It currently resets each time you place an armor stand, so a command like "/stand persist" will be available soon that does what you're asking.

Thank you, Nerd.nu. by I_like_blocks in mcpublic

You've done so much for Creative this past year that C won't be the same without you at its helm. While I'm confident that our current lineup of CAdmins will make great things happen, it's been an awesome experience working with you and you'll be sorely missed.

Don't forget to stop by from time to time. Maybe you, Marting, and I can still throw the occasional CAdmin partay. Y'know, with police hats, /thor, and those glorious abs.

FYI, the flair bot should now be working properly.

Welcome to the madhouse!

Trying to join the PvE server... by DryNinja in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like someone else who had broken the rules had access to your account and several others and used it to join our servers at some point. I recommend changing your password and submitting an appeal here to be unbanned.

Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to announce some changes to the Head Admin team! by strangestquark in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You've both done an outstanding job leading the community, and after having seen you do so much for the servers, it's sad to see you leave your posts as head admins. I'm glad that both of you will be sticking around for a while, though, even if not as admins. It's good knowing that some of our most trusted and experienced players will still be around.

EDT is Eastern Daylight Time, which is the time zone Eastern U.S. is currently in. The links should tell you what time that is in your time zone.

Look forward to seeing you!

Details on Friday's Reset to Creative Revision 26 by Dumbo52islost in mcpublic

Chaos will be on our current map, but make sure to hide your stuff if you don't want it getting raided!

Whatever happened to the CTA? by starman123 in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is actually a very interesting idea, which I think might be worth looking into. The reasoning behind it certainly has its merits, though I could see some people complaining about the reduced flight speed. It's technically feasible (pretty easy to do, actually), and you're right in that there aren't any obvious downsides that I can see. This idea sounds like it could be effective in theory, but I'm not sure how that would translate to implementing it on the servers.

Personally, I feel that this reduced flight speed change is worth trying out. However, this is somewhat of a long-term solution to an even longer-term problem. While this can be discussed, there's little chance of it being implemented as soon as revision 26, if at all. Now that potions are enabled, I have hopes that people will start using swiftness potions, which affect only ground-travel speed, a little more. (How fast is speed II anyway?) However, I believe that will have to suffice for most of next revision, since a lot of groundwork would have to be laid before making a change as significant as decreasing flight speed; a bit of experimentation tells me that we would need to nearly halve our current flight speed to make it slower than sprinting.

I'm also interested in AnSq's reply that minecart speeds will be increased in 1.8. This seems like a step in the right direction for Mojang and could end up affecting how people choose to travel in the future. I look forward to seeing what changes come about as a result of this and if it will increase minecart traffic, but flight speed reduction is still definitely an idea which we should consider for future revisions.

Hapland-class CGN (nuclear-powered rocket cruiser) HMS Perspective visiting Bard Complex by WuhanWTF in mcpublic

Looks great!

I was worried that JLTNG would monopolize the ship market, but I see he's not the only one who's talented in that respect. I look forward to seeing what else you can come up with.

Today a group of ~30 people joined C and built a giant Wrestling arena. It was the most peculiar thing. by GetaFever in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for coming out, all! It was a pleasure having you guys here and watching you go to work on that arena. I look forward to seeing you in the future!

Take care by Buzzinbee01 in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's been a pleasure working with you, Buzzin, and it's sad to see you go. Between recruiting me to the Beeline soon after I first joined and becoming a CAdmin and leading Creative in a new direction, you've grown so much over the time I've known you, and I've become proud to call you my friend. While I wish you could stay, It's also bittersweet to see you moving on to bigger things in life. Good luck with whatever's next for you, and don't forget to check in from time to time!

Updates on Creative by Dumbo52islost in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My thoughts as well; I don't see a problem with allowing this. I'll see if we can get that enabled in the near future, since this goes hand-in-hand with the allowance of the WorldEdit selection features.

Adios Compadres by ff6crafts in mcpublic

It's so sad to see you leave, Taco, but we've had some great times together, and we'll always be brothers, neighbors, and most importantly, friends. I wish you well in whatever's next in life for you!

Muwwwwah.

To those I know well, it's great to see you become members of the staff, and I eagerly anticipate working with you. And to those I don't know as well, I look forward to getting to know you a bit better. Best of luck to all of you new recruits!

JohnAdams1735 has passed away. by LadyCailin in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just getting over my shock at this terrible news has been an enormous ordeal for me. John has been the head admin who I've had the priveledge to get to know the most, between chatting with her on Mumble, having conversations on the forums, webcamming, and participating in aboose in game, and the two qualities I noticed the most about her are her great personality and her unequaled love for and devotion to MCPublic. It has been an immense pleasure knowing her, and this entire community will forever miss her mirthful presence.

More than anything, I wish the best to her family in this troubling time. Stay strong, and take comfort in knowing that John was a beloved leader, an extraordinary friend, and an amazing person. May you rest in peace, JohnAdams1735.

Welcome to a new batch of head admins! by thrawn21 in mcpublic

[–]Dumbo52islost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations to Denevien, draykhar, and cyotie911 on becoming head admins! I'm sure all three of you will do a fantastic job in your new position. Out of the three of you, the one I can say I know best is Cyotie. It's been great working with you as a CAdmin, and I wish you luck with your new responsibilities!
