Update to 1.8 is complete!

Minecraft 1.8 was released over three months ago, yet it is still not on MegaCraft. Why you ask? Let me tell you in a brief a way as possible.

1. Bukkit had some legal issues preventing them from making a new 1.8 build.
2. It took Spigot about 2-3 months to get a build ready for 1.8 available.
3. The initial 1.8 Spigot build was very buggy, so after testing I decided to hold back in the 1.8 update.
4. Now that Spigot is ready to go, I'm having some more issues with PlotMe. Since I need to update to a newer dev build of WorldEdit in order for it to work properly with 1.8, I also need to update PlotMe to function with it. However PlotMe has changed significantly since I lasted worked with it, so it took me a while to apply all the changes I had previously made.
5. Once PlotMe was ready to go, lots of tests are still not working properly and PlotMe still does has some unresolved issues.

As of now, I'm...

One of the favorite features that the old MegaCraft had was KitPvP. KitPvP is a balanced PvP game that gives players a set kit of items and armor. This was a great game for people to play when they were bored or wanted to test their PvP skills.

And now it's back!

Feel free to join the new KitPvP server via the MegaCraft Hub or by using /server kitpvp! Since this KitPvP is NEW, it also has a few new awesome features including...

• Stat Tracking (kills, deaths, KD, server rank, skill rating, and more coming soon)
• Automatic kit giving and auto respawning
• Slight health regen after a kill
• Player levels (earn levels by getting kills)
• Random server targets that reward players for killing a certain player

However, much more is on the horizon for the MegaCraft KitPvP server, so stay tuned for some updates coming soon!...

Hello! This thread's purpose is to give you all a more clear understanding of what we are expecting in builds for different ranks. So before you submit your plot for artisan when it is really just a dirt shack, read some of the requirements that are listed below. Also, as a side note, the decision of your plot is almost entirely based around the reviewer's opinion/perspective. I know that this means the grading system is not 100% fair to everyone because different staff review different plots, however, I trust that most of the staff have a fairly good idea of what we are expecting for each rank.

Novice

1. Play on the server for 5 hours minimum
2. Register for an account on the forums via /register in game
3. Post on the forum for Novices called "Novice Information"
4. Once all of the above is...

Hello everyone. This post is something I would like community feedback on, so please read it and respond so that your voice can be heard!

Within the last few weeks, a lot has happened. School is slowing down for me, giving me more time to focus on developing for MegaCraft. Similarly, I have had a lot of new projects ideas for MegaCraft as well as other projects that are a continual process. However, I constantly find myself jumping from project to project, never really getting anything close to ready for production. I'm starting to feel like this guy...

Thus, the reason for this forum post. I would like to know what you guys think with what project I should prioritize my time with getting done. These are the following ideas/projects I am either working on or have done some form of planning for and a brief (lol not really brief) description of each:

The fully automated MissileWars server network is now live! Check it out at mw.mc-mega.com!

Hey guys, I got something pretty awesome to share with you...

For the last week, I've been working on a special server for Sethbling and Cubehamster's new minigame: MissleWars. This server will host multiple automated MissileWars nodes and can be played by anyone and everyone!

What is MIssileWars? Check out Sethbling's awesome overview of what the game is:


Meh you say? Get this: MegaCraft is the only server in all of Minecraftia that will offer this type of game on an automated mufti-server network! That's right! You can't get this anywhere else folks!

Anyways...
The launch date has been pushed back to tomorrow (Friday 10/24) and will likely launch later at night (around 9-10pm EST). Once it launches, I will post the IP on this post

Get excited! I know I am!

Grief on MegaCreative is hard to deal with, especially with many people have the power of WorldEdit. While there are measures in place to help counter grief (adding/trusting as well as the ability to only add/trust people YOU CHOOSE and even the plot saving/restoring system), griefing is inevitable. In the continued effort to help curb griefing, I have created yet another awesome MegaCreative feature: daily personal plot backups.

As of now, this feature is limited to Donators (Donator, VIP, Elite). This is due to the amount of time and resources it takes to save plots. During my initial tests, there are about 920 plots owned by donators while there are over 30 thousand owned by other players. It would likely take an entire day if not more to copy all those plots and save them into schematics, not even accounting for the necessary disk space.

This feature will automatically link into the exisitng...

After the long wait, I am happy to announce the new MegaCreative Ranking System is here!
