This thread is being created to update you on the status of two gamemodes on our network and to inform you on the plans of the future of these gamemodes on Minetime. Infection and Skywars have both been a part of the server since 2013, both being unique and popular to the server. Over time, both plugins have aged without being updated, leaving many bugs, glitches and other exploits - Deadlife, our infection plugin was last updated in late 2014. Likewise, the Skywars plugin has never been updated since it being released in 2013 - it is severely out of date.
With Minetime’s 5th Anniversary coming June 1st, 2018 - I would like to announce the Administrator’s plans for the future of Minigames on the Minetime Network. With it being the 5th anniversary, and with the concept of ‘minigames’ being something that has always been brought up time and time again on Minetime but always being delayed, we intend to release these gamemodes in June 2018, in addition to possibly...
As mentioned in the post located here, we were forced to reset Creative so that we could fix all bugs and glitches that were causing extreme frustration for players on the server. The reset has allowed us to do this, and everything is now fixed. This thread will outline some changes made for this reset that are different from the last one - there have been quite a few aspects changed.
Plot Size
We have decided to take this opportunity and make plots bigger - plots are now 256x256. This means that you have over double space from the previous sizes of 90x90!
We hope that by giving you more space to build, you have the opportunity to make bigger and better creations!
New Spawn
A new spawn has been released with this reset - Unlike the last reset, the spawn is located in a separate world. Simply walk into the portal at spawn and type /plot auto to automatically...
For some time now, Creative has suffered various bugs and glitches that have made it difficult to play on the server - The "Unknown" plot issue, losing plot homes, problems with merging plots, and more.
The Administrators have decided that the best course of action will be to ultimately undergo a Creative reset - To patch all these bugs entirely and to make sure that these bugs will not be a problem in the future.
What about my builds?
Because of the various bugs that the server has had, those who have access to their plots currently can download their plot as a schematic by teleporting to their plot and using /plot download.
We apologize to those who have lost access to their plots; we hope that this reset will ensure it never happens again.
The Reset
The reset will include the following features (Everything that is currently featured on Creative will also be included)
For the past month or so, there's been changes made on the Prison server in order to prepare the server for adding Prestige support.
Why add prestiges? This has never been a thing on Minetime Prison!
We've decided to add prestiges so that players have something to do - something to brag about and to add something new on Prison. We're always looking for new features we can add to improve gameplay on our network. I setup a poll a few weeks ago and the vast majority wanted to see prestiges added.
To the people who are hesistant towards this decision, I hope that this thread is able to convince you otherwise and to get excited for Prestiges!
Today the Staff Team is happy to announce a brand new reset for our Skyblock game mode. In this thread, I'll go over the various changes we made and the features we've added; there is a lot to go through so be sure to read it so you can enjoy all the new features we've added!
1.12.2 ProtocolSupport
As with the other recent resets, we've decided to update the server to the latest version 1.12.2 and offer protocol support for previous versions. This means that you will be able to play with any client from 1.8 through 1.12.
We highly recommend using 1.12.2 when playing, as we've added a few kits that are exclusive to 1.12. Though the items will technically still work with previous versions, the textures are different.
