I had the same problem but it didn't spawn a portal gate for me when i returned to the normal word.

Hahahahaha I love this photo.

Just keep trying, it stopped timing players out for my server today.

Minecraft.net is still acting up, its still doing what is happening to you and its still timing people out of server while trying to log in. Theres nothing you can do about but keep trying, i usually give it a few tries then take a break and do something else and then try some more. It may take up to 3 tries to even 20 tries before it lets you in. You may also lose your skin that you have applied, going back to the default skin, during game play.

I guess I'll give that option a try, lets hope it works.

Edit: Nope didn't work, at first it was going good played a few hrs without freezing then it happened.

No its just freezes, minecraft stops responding and i have to open task manager and stop it. I used to not do this but I don't know what could have caused it.

And thank you for the response.

This idea sounds like something that would be good for a mod rather then something permanent in the game.

When the hell is some one who has the answer to fix this freezing problem going to post something, because I'm getting really pissed off having to end process and start it again just to have it fail on me again with in 5 mins. 85 views so far and yet no one knows anything.

Thats a very unique idea you have there.

How long does it take to load a typical size map? I see all these cool photos yet when I run it and open a fresh world, I don't see much just a bunch of green squares with question marks in them.

I really like this program because it shows me the names of the chunk I select which makes Identifying chunks much more easier. I've been using McEdit to ID chunks but it doesn't show the name of the selected chunk, so I would have to prune an entire map just to isolate one chunk to be Identified, wasting time and data space(unless there is a better way that I don't know of). If Chunky would load a whole lot faster it would be my preferred program to ID chunks.

Also, it would be a really cool feature to just type in a chunk ID and it automatically jumps to and highlights that chunk.

I don't think there is a way to add a whitelist for a regular server. You might want to try bukkit like the post above suggest.

Sometimes it wont be the servers fault if you time out, minecraft.net is still acting up and will cause connecting to a server difficult. So if you time out give it a few more tries, sometimes it will let you in on the 3rd, 5th, or even 20th try.

But, at the moment my server hasn't been getting any time outs today. Your welcome to come to Venture Industries, its a creative server with an economy. There is different towns with different prices for items and land. Iron is the main currency but people do take gold and diamond. The Link is in my signature, I don't have the Ip public so if you would like to join you need to PM or Email me an application, nothing fancy just short and simple.

Some servers use a whitelist, which means only people on the whitelist can get in. But what I do is just take down the IP and make the only way to get in is by sending me an application or being invited by another player.

Well, it seems like no one knows the answer. But I have found a few things out and I would like to share to whom ever needs help with reformed chunks.

I found it extremely hard to find the right chunk that I wanted to switch so I started with McEdit. With McEdit I was I'm allowed to delete and prune(isolate from the chunks around it) chunks, so I first begin by selecting the chunk i want and prune it, took along time. Once that was done I just simple Highlighted the entire chunk and export the schematic. Then I go open the file that I want to fix select the same chunk, but its reformed, and delete it. Import the schematic of the chunk I just exported and paste it there. Simple but a bit of a hassle but hey it works.

When you prune a chunk, in the world folder will only be left with just that one chunk .dat file. So in away I kinda was able to find a specific chunk. Then I wonder if I just delete the matching chunk .dat file that was reformed and switch it with this one, It worked. Saves time compared to going in, deleting, and pasting but still pruning takes up a lot of time it also takes up space because I have to make a copy before I prune, pruning is irreversible. Oh and to find the chunk .dat file(cause there is a ton of folders to go through) after pruning, simple search ".dat" in the world folder.

I would still like to see if anyone has found an easy way of finding a specific chunk.dat file so please post if you have any findings on fixing reformed chunks.

Yes i run my own server, click the link in my signature.

Its like 10% better, I went from 40% average to about 50% average with just the 74. Sometimes it even goes to 60%.
