Xanadu Server

[Esteban]

After all these problems, I think you guys may want to consider adding your own version of "Right of admission reserved" among your rules at spawn.It sounds weird, but it should grant admins a way to remove undesired players with no need of a full reason. That or a map at spawn detailing where and when to build. The size of this server is huge, which is not a bad thing, however it's at times confusing.

After all this forum trolling, he got his privs back (and land),
i think i am just gonna take a break for a little while.
I am not gonna be there to see him insult us all over again.

Congratulations.

[iska]

I understand you completely Ice.
I will take a break too.

SIGH.

edit: I decided to not let the troll win, gonna try to ignore everything about him

[Bonny]

And im joining ice and iska aswell.

Frequently seen on this server, which speaks loads for the community here.

This is for me, Trigger_Happy.

This is for oreo_2

Ten, please help me asap. Tqsm.

[TenPlus1]

fluffy: both skins are missing parts so cannot be used as a player skin... typically they are 64x32 pixels in size.

[Killerz]

Why don't you add the mesecons mod?

[AndDT]

TenPlus1, I had a protection block at 5665,2.5,4537. Today I connected to server and found out that the block remains, but owner of the block is changed to "muffie". Can you explain, please, what has happened to it?

So I'm not the only one.

[MykieDoesStuff]

I find it absurd that I have been banned for no apparent reason. Lost all my privs a week or two ago, while I was simply farming and building at my base...

I guess Titan, the owner of the server still have some sort of grudge against me.

And about the "incident" that happened with iska, I did not do anything that'll cause more disruption. Was not my goal either. I tried to stay out of it the best I could. but I guess Titan that I was going to cause more problems when just simply sending a PM whether if things are going to be okay or not? I do not know.

Maybe I should just move on to another game.. meh..

For little more information: After I PMed bonny wether if things going to be alright or not, Titan removed ALL my privs then kicked me with a message that says "Nice try."

Username is: MykieIsHere

For anybody who may be curious what happened, and why I am not active much. (Please don't be mean that nobody cares and whatever. I'm just simply reporting what happened and for those players who I had contact with would know.)

Anyways... Thanks.

[~Xhole]

To many players >~<

[Texan]

Aww Xhole.
Everyone know which is the best server in Minetest. :) :)

[I am louie]

Be Calm, Play Minetest :D

CL mansion coming soon....

[Killerz]

Hellomickey
it clearly said no building, so why did you build?

[Texan]

Be Calm, Play Minetest :D

CL mansion coming soon....

So excited. :) I loved your mansion [in Spawn2] on the previous server map.

Also, Killerz, please do not bring that other topic up again. It only stresses people out.

[I am louie]

Texan: Youll be granted an exclusive tour, once its finish :P

[Texan]

Wow, thank you! :)

After a bit of tweaking + adjustments, I'm pleased to announce a new mapping tool for Xanadu!

I had developed this for the Mine Little Testy Pony server sometime last year, but made several changes so it could work with mapsaves made when visiting a world.

I've been working on updating it as often as I can, and I'm going to be developing an effort to allow multiple people to be able to update it so it has the freshest data next to the original map file.

http://mt.jjayr.com/mt/mt02-xanadu2016/map

It updates the URL with each movement of the map, so you can use URLs to link to a specific location. Additionally, URLs and coordinate displays should map exactly to the in-game coordinates. So you can use your on-screen coordinates to compose a link to a specific location in this map.

To improve performance and bandwidth use, map tiles are cached at my VPS host rather than the backend server at home. This means that tiles are only updated, at most 4 times a day, unless I manually intervene.

Additionally, the *OLD* Xanadu server's map is available at:

http://mt.jjayr.com/mt/mt02-xanadu_old/map

Unfortunately, that's as much as the map that I have. If you have more mapsaves from the old server, get in touch with me, and I'll see If I can merge your data with mine to get a more complete map.

I will do my best to keep the site up and running for as long as Xanadu is going, so feel free to rely on it for planning and discovery. Let me know if there are additional points of interest (POIs) that you'd like added to either map, and I'll add them to the data file. Also, if there's an area out of date, or missing in the new map, let me know and I'll try to visit to get it mapped out!

Happy Exploring!

[Glorfindel]

Very nice!
I do have some maps of noobville and areas near there, if you want some.
Looks like I have some competition in mapping now XD (out of business is more like it ) :P

EDIT: I have the whole spawn area from old xanadu map, all the water and everything... including neons space station and etc :)

[Xanthin]

Nice, mystik! I hoped you will get it done one day. :)

Regarding your xanadu_old map, Xaagle Inc too will gladly share their datas from the old geo sattelite with you (with the maps I posted here and other regions and pathes). Just need to find a file hoster because the save file is quite big.

Also, you maybe want to check out my colors.txt where I strictly used the original textures and tweaked some stuff (still some ^colorize stuff is left, which the autocolor thing don't like).

[Glorfindel]

I was thinking about setting up a box collaboration type of thing where anyone with maps could upload and share... free accounts have 10 gigabytes so that shouldn't be a problem unless you have the whole map ;)
(if you do... I have a onedrive with over 100...)

[Killerz]

dont mind this comment

I should list a credit too -- but I actually am using that color file after Glorfindel pointed it out to me. A previous iteration of this was using a broken version from the ponies server.

I want to see if it's possible to actually use the top faces of the blocks, so I can zoom in a few more levels.

I am linux server guy -- If you folks have the map files and can, or know how to use rsync, scp/sftp (WinSCP on windows is super easy to use, and free & open source) I can setup an account directly on my servers so you can just transfer arbitrarily sized files to me. If you have an SSH public key, that makes this even easier and more secure. Send me a PM via the forums, and I'll get you hooked up.

And, more specifically -- I need the .sqlite file that the map_save option produces. I've figured out how to decode the block position hash keys in the database, and i'm going to build a tool that will let me merge multiple map files into one giant map, as will as keep a list of what was most recently updated, so folks don't have to search around to see if it changed.


EDIT: -- added your github repo in the credits section :)

[noob101]

Man, this is downright awesome! Someone pick up my jaw from the floor please! Wowzers...

But I have to invite you to my sky island to get that charted (Do I want this? *headscratch ), and does anyone have a map of my place on the old map, or noob area there? I forgot to move the file when the new map came up, so it got overwritten -.-

Have fun, noob101
