So I finally got a Java Minecraft Server up and running. You can connect to it from this IP:
Vizzed.co

I discontinued the Bedrock Server because there's no good server software for that yet.

For this time being, this world will just be a survival world until I get all of the data from years ago imported which will be sometime next week.

Be sure to let me know if the server goes down or if you have any issues with it. My file server wasn't compatible with any of the Java Server Software that I tested out by default so I had to investigate hours figuring out why and making it compatible. If you're wondering what I invested a lot of my time on this week and last week, half of my development time was invested into testing out different software and installing stuff to the server so that this could work on it.

Enjoy

Staff : Letting you all know of this.

I was really excited when I saw this thread and when I went on the server earlier.

Seeing how it's only here for a week I don't know how active I'll be on this temporary world, though I do have enchants after 1 day of playing so maybe we could actually beat the dragon within that timeframe haha.

Seeing the worlds from years ago will be so nostalgic, seeing how I have literally almost a month worth of playing time on there. Very excited that MC has finally been revived

Furret : The current world can definitely be kept as an available world. We'll have to generate a new survival world anyway that includes all of the new stuff that has been added since the last survival world that was generated years ago.

And I agree, it's going to be sooooo nostalgic to revisit the old worlds. I'm so looking forward to that. That was a good time in my life and one of the best time periods for Vizzed as well so it'll feel like I'm reliving that time.

I gotta say I'm so hype about the old worlds even after 60 days of in game time or at least somewhere around there I'll always be happy to go back into greenerous and the mini game world. I just wish that they don't come back while I'm at camp Ima be so jealous xD

I won’t be able to get on the server for a couple of days at least, but once I can use a computer for extended periods of time, I’m sure I’ll be on all the time!

Extremely excited to play with you guys again, on a server that actually works, and I’m excited to relive all of the old builds I’ve made in creative and in survival.

Just gonna leave this as a little teaser...



Not available to public just yet but looks like at least one old world is here already

I came back for this. I've been coming to the site on and off for months but when I saw this I immediately logged in and started playing. Then I died a couple times until I got enough iron together for some decent armor. Now I have a small base going and am looking forward to dumping a few million house into playing again.

I never played "minecraft" before. But now that I have no games in my schedule maybe I will test it out.

Anyone got tips for a newbie at this? What do you do exactly? Just make stuff or what is it lol.

EDIT: Where do I go to play it? I am clueless here!

JigSaw :

First you'll need to buy and download the game from minecraft.net

After you install it open the launcher, log into your account and select the game version you'd like to play. The server currently operates under the latest one, so it should already be pre-selected.

Click the big fat play button and the game should launch up (might take a while, happens with this version). Once the game is loaded, press "multiplayer", click "add server" at the bottom, and in the IP text box type in "vizzed.co" (minus the ")

Click done and the Vizzed server should appear in the list. Double click it or click the play button at the bottom to enter the server.


Minecraft honestly is a game that doesn't have a genre. Sure, it's technically classified as a sandbox game and the original purpose is to just build things with blocks, but there's also survival mode (just living in a world, which is what the server is at the moment).

Though that's only the surface. Due to the existence of redstone, some kind of electricity kind of thing, you can make machinery and automatic farms; you can make parkour challenges; you can make music with note blocks; with command blocks you can make minigames and adventure maps, and so much more.

People who say they're not creative enough to play the game just don't get what Minecraft really is. Minecraft is whatever you want it to be. Literally any type of play you like exists within the game. The only consistency is that it's all made out of blocks.

So the biggest tip I can give you is to find people to play with (the game is so much more fun with friends) and to just explore. Find servers you like, find gamemodes you like, find custom mods you like, anything. Don't limit yourself to what the game was originally intended to be.

It's been a classic ever since it was introduced, and while other games rise and fall, Minecraft will always remain close to the top.

Furret : Oh I see, thanks.

I guess I will have to wait, don't got $26 right now to get it. As long as it is multiplayer I will enjoy it. I don't really play single player kind of games anymore I have more fun online.

I can't wait to be able to see all our old builds when they're moved here. It's going to be really awesome and nostalgic seeing some of the stuff from years ago. The moment the old stuff is back up, I'll be on with Red checking it out.

I'll be working on getting the server back up today. It went down a few days ago, an issue with the Daemon. Not sure why or how to fix it but I guess I'm going to have to find out.

I changed the server software again and now it's working much better.

I imported most of the worlds and should have all of the old worlds added by tomorrow.

All of the most important plugins have been reinstalled. I'll install the remaining plugins along with possible new plugins over the next few days.

All of the old user data has been uploaded.

It's still rendering but you can find Dynmap here:
vizzed.co:8123
(go to the layers icon to hide the claim data)


Staff : If any of you are able to, go ahead and test it out for me.

Davideo7 : Not staff but I just happened to already join. Great to see everything back! Only issues I see off the bat is:

1) You left the difficulty on Normal, not Peaceful. I keep dying to an unholy amount of mobs storming everywhere and I'm the only player in the server for them to storm

2) Not a single command block I've found works. I'm not an OP (obviously) so maybe there is some output I'm not seeing, but there is no effect and there's no server output. Not even a "You don't have [username]'s permission to use this", just nothing. Maybe they didn't retain their commands? Can't check.

3) Not everything seems to be claimed by their original owner anymore. Weither or not it has a claim is hit or miss, but my Cobblestone pyrimand out in the superflat section (the one surronded by pony art ) isn't claimed by me anymore, but Igor's Pokeball art still is claimed for example.


I didn't think to check to see if I have my mViz still, but honestly I don't remember if I had any left. I do have all of my stuff in my chests tho, so thats good.

You know, after being a former 2nd In Command for the Minecraft server, I sure did a lot, but sadly stepped down due to no longer wanted to be associated with the Vizzed Minecraft Server.

But after 4 years after stepping down as 2nd in Command, I might think of maybe returning back to the Minecraft server, as sadly, not 2nd In Command anymore, but just a normal user on there, but maybe, just maybe over time on there, I might finally get my original spot once again.

I sure missed the server, but I will make my return to the Vizzed Minecraft Server when I feel like it's the right time to return.

I'll have to check that out tomorrow, didn't get a chance to today due to being half dead the whole time.

Some of the issues bigger0gamer brought up should be fixable if we focussed on them. I'm not sure what happened to the claims issue, I know in the creative world those seemed to have transferred successfully. Pretty odd.

Squeals

I did a bunch of stuff today and yesterday, which includes:
-Installing a bunch of plugins
-Added Phemcees mini-game heaven
-Added the Pokemon Worlds that I created
-Added the Citizens NPCs plugin and added the old data as well (actually went ahead and purchased the latest version of it)
-Updates to Dynmap which include not having it show claims by default and also having it show NPCs on map
-Added 'Minepacks' plugin which stores additional items in a backpack (by typing /backpack command) which can then be used to communicate with a database (this opens up potential of users buying items for their inventory on Vizzed using their Viz)

Things still to do:
-Get a new currency plugin and import everyone's old currency amount
-Add the remaining worlds
-Add a few more plugins


bigger0gamer :

1. It should be back on Peaceful

2. Command blocks should work again

3. Is the claim issue fixed?


Furret : It might be related to the space in 'Vizzed Ville'. I think the newer plugins have issues with that.

So sadly enough the map isn't working for me, big sad.

But since I'm scared of moving for fear of dying from getting lost. Can I suggest the movement of adding in the home command.
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/set-home.32748/

Something like that for just ease of teleportation to multiple claims that the user has. You are able to set each home with a name pertaining to that area. Whether it's your actual house or just a good grinding area that you want to explore further. You can also set how many homes each player is allowed.

For example: "I ventured out really far and was able to get my hands on a good amount of supplies, but I'm low on health and on food items I don't think I'll be able to leave without fear of dying from mobs or starvation. Why don't I just use my home command. Such as /home Galrya House or /home VizzedVille Claim. Again this is just a small thing you don't have to add it if you think it makes things too easy, I'm just not able to use the map at the moment. But I'm glad to see my horses are doing fine!
