Starting Today, Monday 11-5-2012, we will begin updating the server to MC 1.4.2. Rumors are, there is going to be an MC update for 1.4.3. We will update immediately when this comes out. I will begin updating as soon as I get out of my last class. I will make proper backups as needed in case something happens. OffWorld will be regenerated as well. Get your items out ASAP. If you logged out in OffWorld, you will respawn in MetaVerse with no inventory (normally).
Why are we updating before Spout? They are delayed due to CraftBukkit. No, not because there is no Recommended Build, but their Library File(s). I personally do not know enough details, but the delay in the Library File(s) is due to competition with Canary.
We are also updating because we have wasted two weeks of our 4 week sponsor subscription with mcservers.com. We have had a number of attempted logins from them, all not able to join the server. If we had at least $150 more in donations, I would not mind. We have had at least three more donations since I last did our financial. Thanks to you guys, we are down to around $140-150 to pay HGS for the year.
I would like to go another four weeks with mcserver.net, but this would cost us $120, if not more. They plan in increasing this as there is demand for sponsored slots.
As we are updating to MC 1.4.x without spout, a number of plugins will stop working and will be temporarily removed. Such plugins, off the top of my head, is SuperCapes, PlayerAccessories, InfoGuide, and all the custom items and blocks will look like Flint or normal blocks such as glass, stone, levers, etc.
Please Note: If you have any items that are spout items, then later looks like flint, don't stack them! If you stack a single flint with another flint of any kind, it will lose it's spout info. Hold the item and use /iteminfo, this will show you the item's details such as 123:99999. If there is a number after the ":", then it is a spout item.
After we update, anyone attempting to join with spoutcraft will receive an error upon logging into the server. "Outdated server" or something along of the lines.
