Minecraft

[Lithium]

6 years ago I was told Java is the language of the future... yeah, right.

[likwidtek]

well I would start by doing this.

Uninstall Java
Reboot
Go to %appdata% and delete the .minecraft folder.
Delete the minecraft.exe file
Download the newest java
Make sure you have the newest video card drivers available
Reboot

Download the minecraft executable again and give it a shot.

Ever since Beta started I can't play for more than 30 seconds on multiplayer without being dropped from the server.

"Internal Exception: Java.net.SocketException: Connection reset"



Before Beta I had no problems with connection, but now I can't even play the game :[

Apparently Notch has a feeling that some of the lag people are experiencing is from the re-introduced (and tweaked) leaf decay.

I have a feeling I won't be able to play ever again...


It's not a good feeling.

My video card is a GeforceGo 7900 GTX. I don't think they've had an update for that card since 2007. In fact, the driver I'm running is for a Quadro 2500, because when my first card got fried, Nvidia's drivers would no longer work and that was the only fix I was able to find online. So...yeah...not much I can do with the graphics card. I'll look into the rest of it.

We've got a big mix of people now so it's hard with so many fragmented groups.  Feel free to represent FA there hardcore.

Since the beta update broke all the server mods and plugins, my server is now a vanilla SMP server. I've forged the beginnings of a base inside a mountain near the spawn point. Playing on likwidtek's server made me remember how much fun it is to build things AND try to stay alive.

I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to leave it this way or alternate between SMP and Creative.

Downloaded a video driver, uninstalled Java, deleted Minecraft folder and Minecraft exe, reinstalled java, re-downloaded and installed Minecraft, and I still have the same issue. I don't get an error message. It just completely shuts down with no warning. The in browser version just turns white.

Edit: finally works, but it takes 2 days to get to my house from spawn, and everytime I spawn I lose more than half my health.

There is currently a bug where spawning causes fall damage.  I lose three hearts every time I respawn or start a game.

Not sure if you guys have been paying attention to the blog or forums but everything is back up and running full speed.

Added some awesome new plugins too.

Are you still running the hey0 mod?  I heard they released a new version for beta, but pushed it out so quickly that they didn't really do any bug testing at all.

[likwidtek]

yeah we're running it.  Not too bad tho
