As for images, yea.... not so much. Lots of hills... Some planks and stuff.. A few trees... a lot of water. Oh, and I built a wheat farm. Hey, we gotta eat while we work, ya know?
Patience, my young Padewan.

Hey there! My IGN is blamesoap and I'd like to apply for your server! I mostly specialize with castles and medieval buildings. I pay a lot of attention to detail. I spent a year as an admin on a server, and spent 3 months having my own server. I don't specialize with redstone or some complex mechanisms and all that.

My ign is SirusSanguine. I would love to check out your server, I can do some building if need be. Let me know whats up

Thanks for your interest in the server guys. At this time, we're not open to the public as we're currently undergoing a major overhaul. (Currently, our own membership is not playing on the permanent server).
However, we'll hopefully be finished with our new and improved map soon and will begin opening to the public once again. So please keep tabs on our OP (Original Post) By An0 for updates. It also helps to simply keep tabs on the discussions going on within the topic to see what we're chatting about, that way you'll know as soon as we're up and running again.
We look forward to seeing some of you in-game!

unfortunately not, though I could just tinker, I need to see this lock in order to rebuild it, no way around that. Unless an0 remembers how to make it, which I highly doubt, then its lost forever. One question, is it in any way possible I can access it via ssp on my laptop? If that IS a possibility, in any way, I can probably trash it in like, 30 minutes. I doubt I could make a better one, or even copy it with tinkering, but it is possible. I can deal with the bugs and even the worst lag, as long as i can see the lock system. I really do not care what condition the map is in.

Ultimately, that decision is up to An0 as it's technically his map. However I think the general feeling is not liking the map out there at all. First one person has it. Then someone else asks for it because they want to tinker with something. Then another person wants to copy this building to their map. Next thing is the domino affect. And if you allow one person, and don't allow another, now it's favoritism. Perfect example is Death is also asking for us to allow him to download it. If we allow you and him to download it, but tell others no, then we have to have a reason for turning others down and we don't want to be "those guys". It's simply safer and better for all involved if we leave it as it is.
I've often found when I've lost SP maps in the past due to corruption, HD formats, etc that googling and youtubing for a similar design often yields better designs than what I had previously anyway. (My wheat farm is a perfect example). If I hadn't lost a world to a corrupt file, I'd have probably never found that design. The base operation isn't my design but the current overall design is mine. I improved the flow system, lever system and collection system. I also designed ways to double and quadruple it (As was evident on Sky Treasure).
So you could view this as a "cloud with a silver lining" opportunity".
It's nothing personal guy. It's just a can of worms we don't want to open.

Thx, I appreciate the effort. I would be very grateful

Edit: Oh, and just incase you're wondering, I'm looking for a complex lock system with a LOT of repeaters. They're also on An0's testing grounds in the forest area

Looks like it's going to be a no-go. I would say go if you're not in Creative mode, go mine up a bunch of redstone and just build a new lock. You always liked tinkering anyway.

I would very much appreciate that, and I was actually thinking of the world save file being emailed to me, put in the saves file in the bin on minecraft and play the world on ssp. I doubt I would run into any problems on the world in ssp, but even then, my purpose would be fulfilled. I'm not sure if you were considering me playing it in ssp, but if that isn't an option, I'm ok with it. I'm glad for the staff is looking for ways to make the map available to public as soon as possible. Thanks

We're actually not going to make Sky Treasure available to the public. (Read the updated OP sir.
In regards to making it available to play in SP, it's probably not likely. As I said, there are lighting issues that make the map buggy at best as well as other issues. These issues are apparent in SMP as well as SSP. It's map related, not game related. Has to do with the age of the map and the new map formats.
I'll still throw the idea of extracting your redstone stuff in .schematic files. I'll keep you posted.

Orig,
Right now the Sky Treasure map is not fully converted. There are serious lighting issues that we have not been able to over come. This is one of the reasons we've decided to move on to starting a new map.
I know An0 has been asked if the map will be made available for Download. I don't know whether he's considering that or not. If he's willing, perhaps I can make your redstone section available via a .schematic file available for download that you can import into your own SP worlds.

Death, check your e-mail, you Git!

NO MAP FOR YOU! Now quiet. Go play in the corner.

How may I join the server?

Currently, as our OP states, the temp server is for Current citizens only. Our permanent server is not open to anyone other than staff members at the moment, until we have completed preparing the map, plugins and a few other house cleaning items. Once the permanent server is up and running, you are more than welcome to join the server. Keep an eye on the OP for more details.

Quote from Kjakings

I'd like some clarification: is it EVERYTHING that's being reset? I'm thinking primarily of our bank accounts, companies, etc.
Also, dibs on King of the Server in the new government system! There's nothing you can do, I dibs'd it

As I mentioned in my post above, New Economy System, etc.
I will say this much, we're looking into ways to possibly compensate people in other ways for the aero that had under the old system, but that's all I can really say for now. A lot of this we're still hashing out and we'll let loose more details as they unfold.
As for king of the server, too late. I already dibs'd it. Sorry pal.

I know everyone's been chomping at the bit for SOME sort of update, so we wanted to let everyone know what our current plans are.
Due to the major changes the game has undergone it has made it increasingly difficult to update our current map at times as well as making it impossible to allow members to enjoy some of the newer features that have been added to the game.

Therefore we would like to let everyone know that we are currently working on a brand new map for the server. Further details will follow soon in a more official capacity that will outline in detail the following and a lot more:
* More freedom to build and explore
* Access to a larger world
* Changes in server rules
* New environments
* Different government structure
* Different economy structure
* Lots and lots more

So what does this mean exactly? While I can't go into more detail than I already have, I can explain this much. Sky Treasure as you know it is, I'm afraid, no longer. As wonderful of a world as we have made it, it has simply become too limited and constrained by out dated plugins and limited play space to enjoy the game to it's full potential
We know the knee jerk reaction is "But I spent SO MUCH TIME on my stuff!" etc etc etc. Believe me most of us feel the same way. However, given the current state of the game, we feel we cannot progress as a clan and server unless some major changes are made. Our ultimate goal is that our members have fun playing here, and we feel this change will accomplish that goal.


We know people have been wondering what's going on. We haven't forgotten about anyone. The staff has been working VERY hard behind the scenes trying to get this new map ready for roll out for the rest of the membership. Please be patient with us and keep an eye on the OP for an official announcement that will outline more permanent and in depth details on the new and improved server, and as always if you have questions let us know. We'll answer anything we can.

Well, let's just say dis orienting doesn't even begin to describe these changes.

Yes, what Sely said. We think everyone's going to like what we have in store.
In the meantime, the temp server is still up and running so feel free to play there until the permanent server is back up and running.
Rest assured the entire staff as well as a few others have been and are continuing to work diligently behind the scenes to get our permanent home back up and running.
I can't give away any details as of yet. But I can assure you there are a LOT of changes coming soon that I think everyone will be pleased with.

See? I told you. No one EVER believes me...

Now.. ON TO PHASE 2!!!

All the world's muffins will soon be mine...

Muahahahahha!!!
