Title: Opticraft Creative Server
Post by: Nick3306 on August 22, 2014, 05:05:16 pm
Tobs and I have been working on a small private creative server for the past few months. Thanks to the help of deekay we officially began testing it by opening it to staff members and are almost ready to release it to you guys. The plan is to open up the server on sunday around 4pm eastern time.

The server is set up to be as close to the classic server as possible, it is a freebuild server with different worlds for each rank. Ranks will not carry over from classic or smp so everything starts off fresh.

I know sunday is still a few days away but I would rather let people know in advance than to spring it on you guys unexpectedly. We will edit the IP into this post once it is released.

I believe you will need a certain rank to use lava and water, guests will not be able to use it.

Just a general question: does ban status transfer over from smp to the creative server?

No, bans from Creative will not transfer to SMP either.

Will ranks from classic transfer to the creative server? Also, will you bring back the classic forums and just rename it the creative forums?

Sounds great!!!

Is it creative plots? or just a normal world where everyone builds in creative?
Thanks for coping with my noobie questions, I can't wait :)

Thanks for making this possible nick, tobs and everyone else who helped. It sounds great.

Ps: TomRizz: it is a world where everyone can build in creative, like the old classic.

What are the basic criteria to level up.  I am assuming it will be more difficult to tie in with the larger amount of blocks available?  Also since lava and water are the same, will crafter and op get world edit, and builder destroytower and teleport?

I don't think destroytower is on the server, but teleport should be.

Considering it's creative and there's a lot more that can be build with the blocks, I'd expect some less bland stuff. Recruit again will be pretty easy, whereas Builder a fair bit harder, and finally Crafter extremely hard. Crafter+ do have world edit, there is no destroy tower (I don't expect any towers anyway as everyone can fly to begin with) and yes, teleport is in for Builder+ :P

outa curiosity what's the stance on mods for this creative server? are we allowed to use something similar to WoM for better flying/faster travel/noclip etc
Title: Re: Opticraft Creative Server
Post by: 100penguin. on August 23, 2014, 04:47:05 pm
Tiggy: Flying is part of creative, so that's normal. I think that /thru will be a command available with donation and /speed will be a command obtained with higher ranks :)
Title: Re: Opticraft Creative Server
Post by: TheWholeLoaf on August 23, 2014, 04:51:03 pm
/speed is also a donation perk, so I doubt other mods that allow increased speed will be allowed.

On an unrelated note, and as someone who is relatively new to the community, I gotta ask on what resulted in the closure of Classic in the first place.

bog loss in members, due to forced downtime refreshes. and classic itself collapsing and mojang not supporting it anymore.
Title: Re: Opticraft Creative Server
Post by: Tobs on August 24, 2014, 04:07:43 pm
Classic isn't closed, it's still up. Just not really accessible because of Mojang.
