Minecraft 1.2 soon - Build Contest PRIZES

According to jeb_, 1.2 may be released soon. Some of the new features that have been in the snapshots are really exciting. I'm looking forward to this update. Although any user hoping to update and play on Land of Moore needs to remember that the server will not be updated until there is a somewhat stable version of bukkit. Also I will be converting all world files to the new Anvil format. But feel free to update, just remember to back up your files first.
Here is a quick list of some notable fixes, additions, and improvements to expect in Minecraft 1.2

• Ladders - no collision, still can stand on top of them
• Vines are climbable - kind of

• New tree type
• Language - it’s getting less offensive with each update

Info update - Project progress - Application - SPM

Been quite busy on Land of Moore - a lot of info to share.
Regular Application

What is a 'Regular'?

A Regular is a trusted user on Land of Moore. They have certain commands and worlds available to them that Guests do not.
I am working on an application form for users who would like to be Regulars. I will still keep the server open to the public, but I will not be making people Regulars without gathering some info first. If you do not like it please let me know. All current Regulars will be grandfathered in. What does that mean? If you are a Regular, you will stay a Regular. I do ask though that you still fill out the form. Moderators too.
This will provide me with:

• an idea of who you are
• confidence you know about this site
• your level of expertise in Minecraft
• some basic contact info
• a barrier to entry

The mods I run

tl;dr Click here

Here is a list of the mods I run. All these mods work on Land of Moore. These can be useful if looking up data values. The mini map with way points is invaluable. Not all features will work. If you can not spawn items, Selecting them in the TMI menu will not return any results(see quote). Understand that these links may die in the future so you may need to Google these.

• TooManyItems
• OptiFine
• Rei's Minimap
• Risugami's Mods (Modloader)

If you want you can download my minecraft.jar file. Here is a how to on where your minecraft.jar is. So read that if you do not know where it is. Before you proceed BACK UP your minecraft.jar file. Click here to download my minecraft.jar file, and simply overwrite yours. If your game loads to a black screen you messed it up. Just delete the /bin folder and relaunch the game. Start over(see quote).

I'll do my best to keep this updated. It all depends on demand. Support will be limited-none.

Busy Busy Busy

I've been working on a project on Land of Moore world. You can check it's progress out by using the warp islandmass.
I've promoted user danw3st to [Mod]. So make sure to bug him for stuff instead of me.

Speaking of bugging. Some of you have a bad habit of asking for things. Items, blocks, people to come look at your stuff... you know who you are -_- Please Stop. I hear "Hey mass, come look at this" a lot. Now, I do it too, we all do. That's the point. If you make something you wanna show off. Take a screenshot, upload it to your blog and rant about people bugging you.

String [287]

One of the main points of this post is to inform you all that the region tool is fixed. Some of you may already know but in case you do not, when you hold string [287] in your hand and then right-click the ground you will get info about that block in the chat console. This will let you know if you can build and the area's name if applicable. You can find an example of the region tool (string) in this tutorial.

Some other fixes for [Mod]'s

• /god (god others too)
• /heal (heal others too)
• /stack (read me)

FYI

When making warps. The warp name can only contain a-z and 0-9. No special characters. This holds true for most other things; like regions. You might want to name them better then "e" or "l". I often do a combination of a descriptive word and my user name.

Land of Moore Image [MAP]

This is a cropped image of the world file Land of Moore. The original image file is 85MB. This file is only 9.4MB with a dimension of 9018x4349 and is in .jpg format. I will be adding Land of Moore_SkyLands and LandofMooreFlat (creative world). Be warned this file is rather large. Source
