HeroTEK - The Resurrection.

[Kainzo]

Imo - start small. Save the project somewhere in the world (or different world) and protect it or add it in later.
Skaduush - Tekkit is your baby and I 100% believe in your ability to push a fun HeroTek server for everyone to enjoy.
You have my full support.

WTF has happened to the server, all the micro blocks have messed up again...

And in my opinion I think this spawn should be put on hold and we should start smaller
Also is it possible to have Citizens 2.0.4 or just a more up to date version than is currently installed. the current version restricts a lot of cool features I have seen in some of the tutorials I have been watching.

 

[malmenca]

Start fresh imo. Save the spawn for later.

 

[Skaduush]

Server is currently down, I tried copying the spawn into a flat world but everyone still had frame rate issues, so for now the MEGA Spawn is on hold... Generating a new map, no spawn yet, we will build something small for players to start in and setup the Permissions/Tekkit Restrictions/ Handle the Exploits and we should be ready for a "test release" ... give me about an hour to get it all sorted and back up.

 

[Skaduush]

Ok, new "clean" map is up, we will simply build out a small spawn at 0,0. I will setup the permissions and we will test the tekkit restrictions.. if it all checks out we will roll it out to production as soon as it's ready for approval.

NPC's, Quests, other worlds will all be worked on as side projects to be added in when ready, including the mothership spawn which i will be converting to a "sky world" and reducing the graphical overhead for everyone to be able to access.

Hey, I just had a thought. Why don't we see if HeroChat can work in Tekkit. It would be nice and different from other Tekkit servers.

 

[malmenca]

It works.

 

[Drastikos]

^ This is the best move IMO
You're handling this well and we won't let this die man. This will still be great and epic. Got your bak!

We can build a ship with main several rooms/sections. Stuff like a cargo bay could be an 8th of the size of the last one or even smaller.
e.g.: A good comparison would be like a Galaxy Class Starship (Enterprise D) compared to an Intrepid Class (Voyager).

A Bridge 1/4 size of last.
A Medical Bay the size of the finished part of last. We could also fit a science are in there somehow.
Engine Room, one or two floors not five and a single core not quad.
Barraks the size of the one finished room we had.
Officer quarters consisting of maybe 8 rooms the size of what we had.
Mess hall could be half the size.
We could elongate the ship a bit, have less floors, say three floors, maybe four.
Also, don't use lava in engines. Tekkit is based on the older version of MC that had frame rate issues with lava. Nether is laggy in tekkit by comparison.

Lots of other little ideas, we can discuss later in TS.
I'll make time to hop on tonight.

 

[Kainzo]

Something wrong with the Tek server. The ports are working for Bukkit vanilla, I just tested.
7777 / 1284 / 1337 and 25565 all work.

 

[Drastikos]

Hmm just tested tekkit with all ports here and no dice either.
Let me know if I can be of any assistance.

 

[Kainzo]

It's something in the tekkit server causing it not to connect. These ports work with vanilla. Whatever changed is causing the issue in Tekkit.

 

[Skaduush]

Back from dinner, which was delicious btw...

Looking at the server I deleted all the old configs & setup files, Nether & End, logs etc. verified all the files are correct and found a CRAP TON of log messages that were being stored in a log folder.. Not really sure what plugin is recording these because I don't see the same logs in previous HeroTEK backup folders... Since we are starting from scratch I may as well do the same for the server .. should have this sorted shortly and back up on a clean Tekkit install... I will keep you posted.

What is your experience withTekkit mods: When HC was down during the DDoS, I played Technic SSP for about a month.

Which Tekkit mod is your 'area of expertise': Redpower (I've always been good with Redstone), and Industrialcraft. I have also seen some videos on Computercraft, and it looks pretty cool. I'm sure with a bit of fiddling I could become quite good with it (I am a programmer at heart <3 ).
Can you lead a group to finish a project or would you be better with a strong leader: Either, though currently I am a bit short on time because of school, work, normal HC, and the web development I've been doing for HC.
Reason you should be accepted: I'm a mature, easy-going dude and HeroTek looks awesome!

This might be a bit late, but I'd say start fresh. My PC's not to great and I think all of us playing on toasters would appreciate a more FPS friendly spawn

So server's down I'm assuming?

 

[Skaduush]

Good things come to those whom wait, and things happen for a reason...

So, it took me the better part of last night and most all of today, but I have reconfigured our HeroTEK server from the ground up. Updated and tested each mod/plugin, one at a time and have achieved the most current(compatible) version levels for them all...

How long have you been playing on HeroCraft: About a Month
What is your experience withTekkit mods: I played on one small Tekkit server for about 2 months and after that server was closed moved to a large server for one more month. I have built several auto-sorting facilities and self sustaining solar panel factories using Industrialcraft and Redpower.
What is your favorite Tekkit mod and why: Redpower, the sorting systems and compact redstone logic gates are amazing.
Which Tekkit mod is your 'area of expertise': Industrialcraft and Redpower, I played Industrialcraft as a standalone mod before Tekkit and I became obsessed with Redpower Factories when I came to Tekkit.
Can you lead a group to finish a project or would you be better with a strong leader: I have done well in both leader and follower roles. I prefer having assigned projects from a strong leader if they let me have a degree of creative freedom.
Reason you should be accepted: I am mature and experienced with Tekkit. I am friendly and always try to finish what I start.
Additional Info: I will log on as often as possible but I do have real life responsibilities.

Probably not as is.. if I can get it customized to fit a Tek-theme then yes we will have it..

You have PM...
