While building Vincent spawn, we virtually got no progress, but we were thinking, how about replacing Vincent with James (our old creative server), and then folding any of the changes we were thinking of for Vincent into the next Alice? James would have themes that would change every 2-4 weeks (with custom texture packs), and we could possibly create adventure maps and release them on a regular basis. Opinions?
Well, sure sounds interesting. But when you say adventure maps, is that as in, adventure map, no block breaking race to the finish parkor, ind of map, or like CTW, or what?
I like this idea, especially if it is done right. Good moderation will be needed to keep the maps' themes and quality.
That would be a really good idea, but isn't alice already vincent but with mods?. But the custom themes idea is really good idea which can now be done really easily with 1.3 cause of server texture packs. I'm really looking forward to seeing how this plans out.
I approve. And not just because Alice with all the wasteland and those ideas would be tons more fun than Vincent with the wasteland.
I would like the idea of having the Alice mods on James for 2 reasons, more blocks to build more awsome stuffs, and also for things like reactor setup testing areas where people who reside in the same base can plan stuff out without wasitng materials, such as a safe, breeding reactor setup that would fit within a certain area. It would also make for a great ic2/redpower/forestry/whatevermodswehave tutorial server where we could have an expanded version of the college that players can add on to.
Trust me tiffy, you don't know how much fun you can get out of using a fucked up sci-fi texture pack and playing on a creative world with a few people, its endless fun :3
I am strongly against getting rid of Vincent. I love vanilla survival very much. It's quite hard to find just good old survival without grief anymore. Why don't we just let Vincent be and start up James? Is it too server intensive or something?
Also a fully vanilla server basically needs no maintenance, and it would be a shame if vincent gets rid on this host since by far it is the best host i have tried
and if we were to make a vanilla server there is no worry to build spawn since the community will build it. the spawn will also be legit.
I think having them both merge in like warps or different worlds such as the thing like mining world where you hold an enderpearl in a portal and go to the mining world. Maybe you could merge them together having one as a warp or a separate world completely. The only problem what is the main world. OH YOU COULD HAVE THEM BOTH AS PORTAL WORLDS! and have spawn be spawn and shit and you could just teleport to vincent or james. My idea.
The only thing i see wrong on creative servers is that things can go to real shit real fast if your community is public or private with a monkey easy whitelist.
