    The launcher has been updated for MC 1.6, and we're planning to hopefully release Alice 1.6 in a few days!

    I suggest getting screenshots, video, ect of your base while you can. We will attempt to figure out a way to distribute the map, but no guarantees.

    YAY, party time! Too bad I will most likely be in Japan when the map resets :(


    Edit: Could we postpone the map reset for 12 days? Or have it in 1 day? :p

    Finally. Couldn't even bring myself to get online the past two weeks. WoW just seemed way more interesting than playing on an old map and having been given so many things - I didn't do the "highend" things with my own stuff and tech so I didn't really feel I accomplished something...

    I haven't tested it, but I think this might work if people just want to download their base.
    It might not like all the mods, and it also says its not forge compatible for the current version but I believe that in this case just means it doesn't go into the mods folder, like optifine.

    Just an idea, If someone can get it working.

    That's a great news.
    Hope new launcher will be open source, as well as the previous one, so we'll can help you to develop it.

    Ghostpotato, that means that this mod is not working with modified clients which using Forge, as both of them modify same Minecraft classes. I think it's possible to make this mod work with our Forge version, but it requires a lot of work. Even if anyone could move neccessary code from WDL classes to Forge ones, it still has a lot of compatibility problems that would need to be addressed.

    So I like the idea to distribute map using Torrent. Ready to become one of the seeders.

    Once 1.5 is switched off we can proceed to figure a method for distribution.

    We have plenty of options, but hopefully I can compress it and put it on google drive.

    Well, it seems to run fine on any test servers we've used so far. But then again, 1.5 seemed to run fine as well on the test servers back then. I guess we will have to wait and see.

    If so :)

    Awesome to see you peeps working hard on getting 1.6 out!
    Was just wondering if the server cpu has been upgraded since 1.5 and if you have considered making some kind of rules as to how much server cpu a person can use? People who plan to make massive lag systems should limit themselfs to singleplayer. Just really hope not to see those 30+sec lag spikes again. :D

    The bad lag spikes in late alice 1.5.2, were due to the IC2 energy net. Those problems of which, have been fixed in 1.6.4 versions on IC2 AFAIK.
