No, It Probably Wont Be A World Save For Download.. :/
« on: 25 Mar 2013, 01:21:29 »
I been seeing a few people ask if it will be a world save, of the current V5.9 world, but if people took their time to search the forum a little bit :3 Like going in to "All Unread New Posts/Replies" by hovering over the "Forum" button, they would know that I already made a topic asking for this, cause yeah I don't want to lose my builds, but Lawrence replied to that topic, so to kinda, HOPEFULLY, get people to stop asking for the world save, I suggest reading the bold'ed area underneath, or you can go to the topic itself and read it from there, that is your own choice, so do as you please.

My Main Topic Text:

So as I read every single reply, to every single topic about V6, I see a lot of "I don't want to lose my builds" so my idea is that The V5.9 map can be put out for download? I know it wont be a easy task as the entire world is rendered which makes the download file stupidly massive, and many people probably don't even have a computer/internet to handle such a large amount, but it was just an idea, I would love to see people's input on this, I think it would be fun to keep the memories of our hard work :)

It is very unlikely that our current world will be released for download. We want to ensure that you can enjoy our V6 experience and move onto the new solutions we have to offer when the time comes.

Also as you stated our world is vast and the file size would be extremely large even when compressed. We also want to consider the privacy of certain individuals whose builds and items would become publicly accessable if released, even though they were meant to be kept private. On a more technical side of things this would also be quite a challenge as we store parts of the world data in a customised format to ensure we can easily edit and access logs etc.

We completely understand that our current world will be missed but you have a few more months to enjoy it and then hopefully you will be able to enjoy all of the new fun V6 will offer!

In addition to what Larry said, People would also find diamonds on singleplayer via hacks then find them on the server. Or they would make another server with the same map as Noobscraft. :|

I would suggest taking screenshots of anything that you see that you like (assuming you have builders permission) so as to keep an electronic photo at the very least...

On an off-note. I've also ran a fairly large server, with the map size taking up several GB's. So I also know that it doesn't even take 5 minutes to copy a building into mcedit and save it as a schematic, and upload it. I do understand you wouldn't do it for, let's say, town plots of 16x16 or 32x32. But we do have some monumental buildings on the server, that people spent many weeks if not months on. And it would be a shame for those people to lose such structures completely. So I would say that yes, there have to be some rules/limitations about it, but at least make sure there will be SOME sort of option for people to preserve the most majestic buildings on the server.

As an example on this, the arena in my town Flintwood has been worked on for several months now, and is still not finished...

Would be nice to have a schematic so we could finish it in singleplayer :3

It would be too hard to have a save file because the server is very large.  Plus, that would be weird because everyone's houses are always changing.
