Minecraft 1.8 Fresh running

[ZeroHour]

Hi
The fresh (aka no previous data) test of 1.8 is now live.
Once bukkit released a 1.8 version I will test that and we can consider if we want to stay fresh world or restore the old one?

Post bugs here.

I accidentally used the bed in the nether version of the spawn and blew things up a tiny tiny tiny bit... :P

[ZeroHour]

So it was you that destroyed my nether area /runs off to revoke all access..... :P

I should really get to grips with parting with £15 to get minecraft :-)

..... not that you would want me :P haha!

*got a grip and brought it, @ZeroHour can you sort kit out pretty please.. *

I, perhaps foolishly, presumed there would be spawn area protection.

Gah, I really need to find some spare time to play

I did put a sign up there, kinda hinting that you'd have a blast...

If the old world doesn't end up getting used anymore, would it be possible to get a copy of it? I've become a little bit attached to some of the things i've built in that one.

1.9 is soon and will require a new world gen (again) for new nether structures, snow and mushroom overworld biomes. :S

Hehe spawn area does have limited protection but I *think* tnt etc still work and also the protected area is a 20x20 area around.

Yep but note you will need a copy of 1.7 probably to run it. I am also looking at options to copy things across, its that or I do a weekend special (post 1.9) where I enable people creative mode for a few hours to get a start in the fresh world.

Does it actually require a full reset? 1.9 was supposed to be out 2 days ago but then again this is MC.

It'd be good if we could all arrange a couple of group 'new world, new build' gaming times, so we could work as a team, and maybe build a town or something. Maybe even fraps it and stick it on youtube?

Just a heads up, 1.9 prerelease is out so I would hope 1.9 wont be too long.

This works really well from a static view point then using timelapse to speed it up.
