I really want to go but I more than likely wont be able to get a ride, I would really appreciate it if you could drive me or help me find someone who could. I will chip in for gas.
Hello, I'm interested in these Items feel free to name your price.
Item 1
Computer motherboard and processor combo
I got an old computer off of a friend and was hoping to get it working again as it has a 5.1 surround low profile sound system bolted on the case of the computer, I named it my *Music Mellon* *I'm looking for something cheap if anyone has a old motherboard laying around* *preferably Dual core processor, I am not looking to spend over $100 for the combo*
Item 2
Any graphic cards that are Pci express X16
Item 3
Any Nvidia Clothing and accessories
The gave out some shirts that say crank that S#!T up at the NeXus 11 lan and I would love to own more than one.
Item 4
A Dvix to VGA converter
I have a Dvix only Nvida graphic card for my Music Mellon and a VGA monitor.
The lol tournament was fun but it was a little chaotic, an awards ceremony would be cool I don't believe I even got to see the winning lol team. *Good job to the winning team if your reading this*
Maybe next lan we could do a small lol tournament ARAM style for the people that can do it?
It was my first big lan event and it was so much fun, I will be going to the next NeXus event, you may even see me at *Lan OC* June PWN* and *Fort Lan*.
Looking back 4 years ago and remembering the *epic* lans I had with 4 friends in my mother basement, they don't seem so epic anymore ^_^.
Thank you to all that made this lan possible.
P.s. if you live near troy and are heading to any of these events I could use a ride, I can chip in for gas.
I already have decided on what I'm doing for my build. Since its a super flat world its a lot more challenging building something. My biggest issue for what im doing is time, Ive already with drawn on my lol tournament. I want to spend the hole weekend on this build. Since I know about the challenge in advance it gives me time to prepare, test, design, and make blueprints for the day of. Ive never done a build challenge but I really want to win my first.
Minecraft has 2 different versions that are most popular right now 1.4.7 or 1.5.1.
1.5.1 is the latest mojang build and 1.4.7 is the most stable version.
Both are good and bad which version would you like me to use?
Users will have to find a .jar of 1.4.7 if we use the older version of minecraft so you'll have to keep that in mind. If anything I could put a 1.4.7 .jar file on your fill server and let users copy it, "NOTE" it is not illegal file sharing to copy the .jar, if it is copied to users that do not have a legal minecraft account they will not be able use it.
I would recomend 1.5.1 because there were over 100 different updates made to it, the most important to me are the day light sensors and LOTS of redstone materials. The biggest flaw is that if you hang a painting anywhere in the map, the painting will not show up.
I love the idea with a mine craft build challenge, but there is a very bad issue with using a vanilla server.
Vanilla servers are extremely easy to hack; a 7 year old can add the exploits which are untraceable for administrators see.
AntiCheat is a plugin for a Bukkit server that detects exploits for various Flaws/Bugs in Minecraft.
AntiCheat will try to identify illegal data or packets sent by players that may be on your server and exploitation of bugs in the game based on the information or packets the player sends to the server. These cheats could range from going faster than you are supposed to in-game or have a farther reach distance than you are supposed to have. If any of this stuff is detected AntiCheat will stop them and enforce the regular boundaries.
I can configure bukkit server files that you can copy and run on any server that will work just as well as a vanilla server but stop the various exploits. This will ensure the build contest is fair and equal to everyone.
-I set up a basic minecraft server at P3 for you guys that was a vanilla server, but something like this you really need a bukkit server setup. I have worked with minecraft servers for a while now and am very knowledgeable about them, please take my advice.
