I have just taken a closer look at Biomes O'Plenty. Would be nice if SK made the 'new' world with Large Biomes on. There's a lot of very different biomes, and a lot of different biomes near each other (because biomes are rather small by default) can be very ugly with this mod. Of course, the mining world is fine to have default biomes in. And Railcraft.
Me says the hell with eloraam and the diva complex, I've seen ppl on the server with far more talent and will to do nice mods and writting. I only care if player inventories reset and where would like to start anew. Btw, when is this happening? I only play on weekends so a bit of a heads up for organization would be nice xD!
If this update were to be made, I would like to ask if the Traincraft mod could be added to the server. I do not know if the mod is avaliable for any 1.5 other than 1.5.2. But, I believe that it is an extremely fun mod and that many of server users would enjoy it. Also, if we were to restart the land, would that erase everyones' inventories to as if we were to begin an entire new world? If so, I would like the world to stay the same.
Traincraft used to be on Alice, but it had to be removed because it was buggy. If the 1.5 version is stable it might see a comeback. Of course this all depends on testing and if SK wants it.
I'm just posting so everyone knows, because people seem to know get this. Minecraft 1.5.1 and 1.5.2 are both backward and forward compatible with each other, just like 1.4.6 and 1.4.7 was. So any 1.5.1 mods, will work for 1.5.2 and vice versa.
Well not every mod works on 1.5.2. I've seen some that had issues with 1.5.2 even though they were fine on 1.5.1 (ComputerCraft for example). It depends on the mod, some need an updated lib, some don't need anything at all and some need to be updated.
The reason why I said any, was because out of the 120+ mods i tried, the only issue I had was with computercraft and miscperipherals. I do understand that not all mods are compatible, but it's nearly there.
I'm doing that Mart, using a sole core building for storage, so when the tide comes, i'll complete the building and install everything. the issue is moving everything to That point though =P
It says it will be implemented. L2Read. What about people and bees? When the generator gets changed, all biomes will be switched and most people will have to move their bees... it would really suck.
IMO, I'd say either do a full reset or keep everything as it is. I'd like the world to be neat and look nice, not a glitchy wasteland of mix-matched chunks.
