Don't suppose you happen to know if this mod works with lwc, do you? The last version you released did not, unfortunately, meaning they were nearly useless on a server that uses lwc. I mean, yes, more storage is nice, but most players would rather use a double chest that they can protect as opposed to a really big and convenient one that they can't.
This mod works fine on new worlds that I make, but not my old 1.0.0 world. It crashes right when I load it, I assume its because that world had the IC2 Iron Chest addon...

As I said in the top post, likely this is because you have chests as blocks in your world. Converting them to the new model is a lot of messy code so it won't be happening. You should break the chests so that they're items and not blocks in the world. That should work and you should be able to upgrade your world then.
I have a question if you could. I'm fairly new to modding but know how to do it and modify ID's if necessary.
I have a problem with SMP. I can run Ironchests.2.1 fine in single player and it shows loaded in multiplayer. However, when I try to make a chest (RP ore or not) I get ejected for "generic reason".
does anyone possibly know what this could be? All the chests work wonderfully in single player (along with other mods) but not SMP.
In SMP I have BC2 and RP2 and Backpacks mod. (couldn't get IC2 to install with any recent forge version, poo).
Running ModoaderMP v2 and Forge 3.0 (because RP won't run for me in 3.1 or 3.2)

Without an error trace (probably from the server) it'd be very difficult to know what's going wrong there.
New version now available: upgrade items to allow for chests to be upgraded in place.
Without an error trace (probably from the server) it'd be very difficult to know what's going wrong there.
I am hosting the server, just for me and a friend; though I don't know how to get an error trace.
The only other things I can find "possibly" there is no config file in the server folder for iron chests. Also when I check the SSP id, iron is 181. Trying to Give 181 says "there's no item with that ID".
All my other mods in SMP seem to work, I assume others are not having this issue then.?
The only other thing I can think of is I have a client server forge differnce? if no item doesn't help anyway. Client is 1.3.14 (since that's the ONLY one that runs IC2) and server is 1.30 (since that's the ONLY one that runs RP2). But I'm not sure if this would be it since the other mods work?
Uploaded my faithful texture pack support for these chests. Sadly no upgrader item in the texture pack, but that's OK. I need better art for that first anyway.

Based on what you described, IronChests is not installed on the server, or is not correctly installed.

Well that's kinda my best guess also. It's like the server file isn't properly integrating. I would figure it should have a config file, right?
Still I have running and working: modloaderMP, Forge, RP2, BC2, Manasys, Backpacks. So we can assume that the modloaders are in correctly.
As for dropping the .zip into the Mods folder in my server area, check! What else can be done for an install with this?
Btw again, the command window says "loading ironchests 2.1..Done" E.g even the game thinks it's installed.
I have no ideas other than a missing string or tag in the ironchests server file.

Does anyone have this working in SMP?

Well, obviously, I do. Now, I had horrible problems with broken forge builds so I only got it verified working with the bukkit builds but there it works very well. Did you download server 2.1a or server 2.2? There was a very important fix because server 2.1 was broken when there were other mods using the ore dictionary. I suggest getting server 2.2.
Well a modder has to declare his/her items in the ore dictionary for 1, and for 2 - EE comes with a alchemical chest, so why use this mod at all...
...
As others have noted, it can be answered in three words:
FORGE
ORE
DICTIONARY

Would be cool if there was an Obsidian Chest that had more (or equal) spaces than the diamond chest, but was blast proof.
Interesting idea, will look into it..
