Hey guys! Snapshot 12w40a has just been released; here’s a quick look at what’s new!

  • Minor terrain additions for the witch
  • Flatworld configuration now allows you to generate trees, strongholds etc
  • A number of new NBT tags for items (intended for custom map makers)
  • The pick block action now works on items
  • Pressing the 1-9 hotkeys while hovering over an item will put that item into the inventory bar
  • The left-click action will no longer open doors, pull levers, push buttons or open trapdoors. Use the right mouse button!
  • Firespread has been slightly nerfed again to prevent infinitely spreading fires
  • More bugfixes & tweaks!

You can grab it here: http://www.mojang.com/2012/10/minecraft-snapshot-12w40a/

Let us know what you think of the changes!

Forest Cave – A New MineSquish Survival World!

September 23, 2012 in MineSquish by welshpixie

We’ve decided to add another building-survival world (like Triumph and Skylands) to the main MineSquish server. We’re doing this because we found a generator that generated something too gorgeous not to share (yes, I know there are many awesome world generators out there that generate many awesome worlds – this isn’t an invitation for you to list them all and ask for them on the server :P ).

That’s a small preview. To understand the complete awesomeness of this world you’ll have to log on to the server and see for yourselves.

HOW TO GET THERE

There’s a portal to the world from the lower-floor of the portal room. To get back to Triumph, just type /market.

WORLD RULES

Full server rules apply as per normal, just as for Skylands. This is a third building-survival world, and as with Skylands, we’d ideally like you to consider the terrain you’re building in and build something that ‘fits’. The terrain is very unique – work with it!

Inventory will be linked with the other building/survival worlds.

Also, a gentle reminder – noob towers are covered under the rules as not allowed (vertical one-block stacks from ground to sky). We won’t be helping with road- and bridge-building in this world, as we want it to be more of a challenge to both reach and build on the ‘good bits’. If you’re going to aim for the top level, don’t just build a noob tower up there. That’s unsportsmanlike. :P

To decrease world lag, weather is set to false on this world.

IMPORTANT NOTE

When you join the world for the first time, you might get kicked from the server. It’s a very load-hungry world. Keep trying to join; it might take you a fair few tries to get a stable connection on the world.

 

Have fun!

Enderpong!

June 25, 2012 in MineSquish by welshpixie

We’ve got a new ‘tournament’ world on the MineSquish server – EnderPong!

Huge props to Sethbling for the original concept, adapted for our server by Trollsama (with inspiration from Meles of the Krash Palisades server!) – EnderPong is a completely player-managed event that needs zero admin interaction so you can play it any time you like!

HOW IT WORKS:

The goal of the game is to use enderpearls to try to teleport yourself  into one of the opposing team’s ‘cups’. Falling into a cup will trigger a pressure plate that collapses the cup, and that’s one point for your team. The first team to collapse every cup wins. After throwing your pearl, run into the pit on the same side of the field that you’re on (i.e. if you’re red team, you’re throwing your pearls to green team’s side of the field and will run into the pit under green team’s stand) to dispense the next enderpearl and TP back to your stand.

  • You can reach EnderPong from the portal cunningly titled ‘EnderPong’ in the lower floor of the portal room.
  • You will join the world in the viewing stands. Behind you will be a portal back to Triumph, and a rules board.
  • There are two teams – Red vs Green.
  • Matches are 2vs2, so only two players per team at a time.
  • There’s a Reset button in the center of the field, with signs either side indicating that to begin, the red team runs into the pit beneath the green team’s stand, and vice versa.
  • Beneath each team stand is a series of pressure plates. Standing on a plate will dispense an enderpearl onto the opposing team’s platform above your head, and open the portalway back to your own team stand.

Everything is automated, so if you play the game precisely as outlined above, every player will get their enderpearls dispensed automagically for their next turn.

Enjoy!

Triumph – A Whole New World

May 25, 2012 in MineSquish by welshpixie

For three weeks now, a giant ball of flame has hurtled its way towards the peaceful village of Haven, Serenity. Ever since its first sighting, teams of Serenity Scientists have been working hard to find out just what kind of  a threat the meteor presents, and what can be done about it. They built an observatory atop the Portal Tower to study the fiery rock as close as safely possible, and have finally concluded…

… That there is no hope.

For Serenity, at least!

The ‘official’ report from the guys in white coats are that the world has some four weeks left before the meteor impacts, at which point it will render not just Haven, but a huge area surrounding Haven, a flaming inferno of hellish doom, highly unsuitable for living conditions. The presence of fiendish monsters lately leads them to believe that as the meteor draws closer, these occurrences will increase in frequency and intensity, making Haven and Serenity an even more dangerous place to call home.

Fear not, though – the Haven residents, recalling old fairytales of a powerful mystic, demanded that the Haven council send out explorers to track down The Wizard. After weeks of scouring the lands, the wizened man was eventually found, and promised to help. In short order he prepared a spell that would open a portal to another dimension…
