Modpack Delay

As many of you know I'm currently in the last 18 months of a degree, my workload until October is over 60 hours a week so I'm afraid the modpack is progressing a lot slower than I would have liked.

The original intention was for it to be launched this month however my mod still requires some work to get it to the point we need it at and some of the plugins still need a significant amount of tweaking, all in all I probably still have 5000+ lines of code to write and test plus a few hundred lines of config to tweak.

I will continue to work on it as time permits but until my workload eases off in October it will be difficult to get the bulk of the work done, come October however I should be able to finish things off fairly quickly so it should still launch well before the end of 2014.

As usual keep an eye on the Modpack section of the site for the latest news and updates, feedback so far has been very positive so hopefully when it does launch everyone will agree it has been worth the wait!

For now here's another little preview, this time something I've put together for the new casino, introducing the YogSlot...

RM Star Unbanned!

Thanks to the plugin update this morning I've been able to slow the RM Star down to a usable speed, so it is no longer banned!

Obviously the maximum charge is set to zero to keep the speed in check, but it's still very useful as a multi-tool.

Enjoy!

Scheduled Downtime / Major Plugin Update

There will be a scheduled maintenance on Monday as follows:
  1. Full backup/clone.
  2. Clear out old data.
  3. Remove BuyCraft.
  4. Upgrade TekkitRestict.
  5. Test TekkitRestict.
Scheduled Downtime:
Date: 04/08/14
Est Start: 9:15 am (UK)
Est Finish:  11:45 am (UK)

*Rescheduled from 8:15 start to 9:15 start.

Please Note:


The developer of TekkitRestrict has released a major new version which includes many improvements, several of which we have requested over the last year so we will be upgrading and testing it as part of this scheduled maintenance. 

Being such a major upgrade there may be bugs so even though we will test everything we can there may still be issues, hopefully nothing serious but we will have everything ready to revert back to the old version if something big comes up after a few days etc.

I've scheduled the downtime for 2.5 hours, but depending how the testing goes it may be shorter, hopefully it wont be any longer though!
