Mojang has released a new update for Minecraft today, and while that’s great for your single player worlds, it means Minequestria has to go under some maintence for a couple days while we wait for Bukkit to update to 1.5, which could take some time. Keep checking back for more information!

Ranking System is Back!

samanthaxkay — Fri, 01 Feb 2013 01:58:18 +0000

As you may have already noticed, MineQuestria has brought back our ranking system. This means that there are multiple groups within MineQuestria that you can obtain, each of which that get different abilities and perks. These will take some getting used to, but don’t worry, admins and older players will be able to help.

First of all we have time-based ranks. These update automatically based on how long you have been on our server. As you get higher, you get more abilities. The order of these are as follows: Guest-beginning, Player- 1 hour, Member – 20 hours, Veteran 80 hours, and Elite 500 hours. There are many specific parts of each team. For example, as you go higher you can set more homes. There are also perks like being able to type /back on death that you get as you rank up. For specific questions, talk to an admin or another team member to see what you get.

We now also have more advanced staff and supporter ranks. These are in addition to the time based rank above. Supporters are people who have donated to MineQuestria (link) there are multiple levels at which you can donate. Supporters get in-game perks like the ability to fly and use directional commands. Staff includes all of our Admins, Moderators, and team members that have applied (link) and been accepted to help out. If you have a question about MineQuestria or the new permission system, these are the people to ask.

The new permissions may take some adjusting but are helping MineQuestria to stay organized as we continue to grow! (Not to mention that it adds the potential for some more great plugins in the future.) Comment below or talk to a staff member in-game for help.

Pretty Scary Update (Important Information)

david28227 — Thu, 25 Oct 2012 16:17:40 +0000

Minecraft updated to 1.4 today, and as excited as we are for all these new features and how this can change MineQuestria, We’ve faced a small problem. There has always been a small delay in when the server software gets updated after Minecraft gets updated. If you’ve already updated your Client to 1.4 and tried to connect you’ve seen what I mean. With an update for our server software not expected for about a week it leaves you guys unable to join the server until we can update our server. Well, I’m going to tell you step by step how to set up your Computer to be able to run 1.4 and 1.3 and be able to choose between the two on launch.

Right click on this link and click save as. Minecraft1.3.2.jar. Save the file to your .minecraft/bin folder as “Minecraft-1.3.2.jar”
- to get to your .minecraft folder, type in %appdata% under file name and click enter.
Download “Magic Launcher” and open it.
Beside “Configuration” Click “Setup”
A new window popped up, click the “New” button
A new window popped up, “Configuration” should be “Minecraft 1.3.2″ and “Copy from” should be “Default”
Click OK
Beside “minecraft.jar” click “Select”
A new window popped up, select the minecraft1.3.2.jar you downloaded
Click Open
Click “Test”, minecraft 1.3.2 should launch, if it was able to launch then you’ve successfully set up Magic Launcher to run multiple versions of Minecraft! If not, you’ve done something wrong feel free to email me for help at david28227@minequestria.com
Click OK to save your changes.

In order to use 1.3.2 you have to Select “Minecraft 1.3.2″ from the drop down menu by “Configuration” before logging in to Magic Launcher.

Server Status Update

HMSCarolina — Sun, 23 Sep 2012 03:55:07 +0000

Well it seems McMyAdmin released a premature update that has been wreaking havok on our host’s servers. Our Server is not the only effected. It seems the every server in the same server bank as ours has been experiencing the same issues. Fragnet assures us that the problem is on the High Priority List. We expect it to be resolved soon. We apologise for the inconvenience.

Sincerely,

Admins of MineQuestria

What “Lag”

HMSCarolina — Tue, 11 Sep 2012 16:53:55 +0000

We are happy to announce that “The Lag has left the server!”. MineQuestria is lag free and we are now in the process of getting the settings tweaked for this host. DynMap is re enabled and running on the site. We have a few minor issues with the SQL DB but all will be fixed shortly. We are planing alot of new community builds, games and more soon.

Player Spotlight “SP00NTAHH”

SP00NTAHH

I thought I would start the introductions with SP00NTAHH, his colorfull skin just caught my eye. Since the 1.3 Update SP00NTAHH has only had 7 deaths. Once from a entity attack, drowned once, and fallen to his death five times. He has 393 Mob Kills, Great Job! BTW. Most of his kills were with his trusty diamond sword but, he got 8 with his bow, one bare handed, he killed one with a diamond spade My personal favorite is beating a mob to death with a Red Rose… That’s a true Warrior.

SP00NTAH has been active in MineQuestria Breaking 10,902 blocks and placing 11,449. He has been in just about every Biome we have to offer. He has spent 13 hours walking 93.1 km. He has rode in a boat 951 m. And of course 1.6 m falling… just to name a few.

In all that time he has only slept 11 times, what a trooper! SP00NTAHH has crafted 575 items from the boat he spent 3 mins in to his fancy diamond armor and tools. If you see him make sure to follow him fir a bit, he has dropped 6,056 items… wait…never mind… He as picked up 20,215 items. Wow, that’s quite a bit. SP00NTAHH has spent just under four hours underground mining. That’s dedication folks! All that exercise worked up quite an appetite, he has consumed 105 loaves of bread, 65 cooked beef, 1 cookie, 16 apples, 17 golden apples, 82 melons, and 3 RAW beef. (dude, you could of used my furnace).

All Joking aside, SP00NTAHH has been a great addition to MineQuestria’s community and we look forward to the times ahead. He won the last Scavenger Hunt and has volunteered to help with The Dailg Dig Team and the Video Team.

THREE CHEERS FOR SP00NTAHH!!!!!

Disabling DynMap

HMSCarolina — Mon, 27 Aug 2012 18:46:11 +0000

As per our host we will be running through our plugins folder to determine the high ram usage in our configs. We want to keep as many as possible, but there needs to be a testing period to figure out where the issue is hiding. We want to keep DynMap and still have the option to add more later. More Supporters is the best answer to our problems. Without them we will have to keep DynMap off far a while or at least till another solution is found.

Lag Issue

HMSCarolina — Mon, 27 Aug 2012 05:10:19 +0000

Citizens of MineQuestria, May We Have Your Attention Please!

We have been having an issue with a little lag since the 1.3 Update. This may be a couple of things, alone or a combination. The 1.3 Bukkit has not had a chance to be optimized, some plugins might still be having issues with 1.3, and our host can’t seem to handle our server with it’s list of plugins. What this means to you is LAG… We are up, but we are not satisfied with the performance of our server at this point. We are actively searching for a host that can perform more to our expectations. MineQuestria does have a few features (Plugins) that make our lives in game more convenient such as Transporter, DeathChest & Tombstone, DynMap, Tree Assist, Mob Health, Spout Trade, Showcase, and many others. As we are not willing to take these benefits away from our players, this is a issue we wanted to take the time to let you know “We hear You” and are working on the issue. We have sent our host a Email this afternoon and are awaiting a reply. In the meantime we are looking for a new host with the resources to give MineQuestria the room it needs to grow.
