Opening The Server In 1.6.4
« on: 14 Nov 2013, 00:21:15 »
Launch the Server in 1.6.4 > Take it down once Bukkit is 1.7.2 Ready > Open it again once the Server has been updated to 1.7.2

This means instead of waiting for 1.7.2, we could play now in 1.6.4, and once Bukkit updates you guys can simply take the server down and update, I would more like to play in 1.6.4, than having to wait another 2 - 3 Weeks for Bukkit to update, cause it's really taking a lot of time for them to update this time, cause they seem to keep running in to different issues that stops them from going any further.


I did make this topic once with a poll for people to vote their opinion, but they didn't actually post their reason behind said vote, so this time ill ask that you share your opinion with a reply.

Be patient, 1.7.2 is around the corner, lets just relax and wait. :)

I'm Patient, actually I am probably one of the few people that haven't complained about the delay on every topic on the forum, this was just a suggestion.

1.7.2 may possibly break everything, meaning if you were to protect or build anything in 1.6.4 it could be potentially lost when we move to 1.7.2, this is due to the way block and item data saving is changing in 1.7.2. This would be a terrible start to the version and would just create more arguments and anger in the community, we are going to wait it out and ensure the release is smooth. We'll be posting an update article to explain this within the next day or so, so please be patient for that.

There may be possible ways we can start on 1.6.4, but that would be a last resort and not very ideal or completely reliable.  This method would mean creating conversion plugins to convert the data, which would be incredibly time consuming and a waste of time if 1.7.2 is around the corner. We'll discuss this in the article soon as I mention above.

Fair enough, did not know about the item data saving changing, I just simply thought it was a new update like all the others, but I guess were not that lucky, anyways thanks for the answer, ill lock the topic now =)
