It's not that hard to duplicate a server and then work on that to test your new potentially world-breaking coding. So yes, you can work on a server and run it at the same time.
Of course data can be duplicated but you need someone to work on it after that >_>The admins can't do both things at the same time.If it was that simple they wouldn't even need to take down V5 to begin with.
As it sits however, 1.7 will be a rather large update for quite a lot of mods. As I said before, Minecraft has changed a lot. Which means Mods themselves will take a while to update. We are trying to get Forge out as soon as we can for mods to start, but don't expect any major mods to be updated until possibly December.
It feels like we’ve been working on this for a year now, with more than half a million lines of code changed over 1,104 commits we’ve been working extremely hard on this update. We’re calling this one “The update that changed the world”, because it really has in two different ways; there’s over twice the amount of ingame biomes, and we’ve overhauled lots of the code preparing for the plugin API.
Just thought I'd mention this, on teamspeak Lawrence stated that the worlds were generated in the snapshots so they already had the new biomes in them.
Why not require that everyone play on 1.6 with the server launch, since the new Minecraft launcher supports easy version switching?
Are the fighting still going on...?
Quote from: UnlikelyPirate on 25 Oct 2013, 22:30:37Why not require that everyone play on 1.6 with the server launch, since the new Minecraft launcher supports easy version switching?Because of the same reasons already posted (and not just by me) ?I mean, if a major mod team is saying it could take 2 months, why do you assume that Foob&Co are going to be as fast as that (or faster) while also having to handle a running server?The API is also another good reason to invest time beforehand and be up to date instead of developing already obsolete stuff, imo. (assuming the API works and isn't garbage)
id still like someone in the know to explain how they can generate a world from a snapshot and have all the mods working and ready to go?my prediction is that they will throw up v6 and announce that there building a new world for 1.72 and we will get that in a few months after dangling the carrot.....I appreciate all the hard work from fat noob and his help and really enjoy the server but it feels moor like we get hand me down worlds....after they built what they wanted....there is a great community here of minecrafters ,whom I believe would be more than happy to to play on a server that didn't have a luxurious starting town/spawn.. its not how pretty your world is its the players that play on the server that make it great.

Having a constructive conversation (in this circumstance) is about discussing things that could be of value to the Admins. A non-constructive conversation is unproductive, can be hurtful, and is uncalled for.
If they had it working under 1.6, then launching under 1.6 sounds so much easier for everyone, not just the players.
the fastest way would be release 1.72 vanilla and ad the mods as there available ,so basically were waiting on them to save their work and stuff they built by waiting for them to update the mods....

Your suggestion doesn't seem anything near the style that this admin crew runs by. They change things as they see fit and when needed only, and they release a server that is ready to go. While it sounds like a good idea, the members of this server can find that haphazard way of running a server anywhere else. This server is downright the best there is, and I only fear people will lose interest if they wait more than a month or two of downtime before they can play on it again.I will be loyal. This is the first Minecraft server I ever played on. This will be the last. My wife already finds my obsession with this wonderful game to be silly, but we allow each other our free time. I just hope I don't continue to waste my free time elsewhere, waiting months and months for my favorite server to my favorite game to come back online.
Fatnoob said on Mineapoc that hes just waiting for bukkit 1.7 to come out :B
