Servers have been upgraded to 1.4, it's safe to update!

Are you using windows xp?

As for what we have been seeing, here are some major issues:

• Servers have way more lag than usual (this is confirmed from other communities that 1.4 is not as efficient as 1.3)
• People using Windows XP cannot connect to the new servers. Seeing messages "cannot resolve host names" (this is because our new dns mapping and we are still troubleshooting this)
• Maps randomly won't load

Some features we are having trouble adding:

• Voting is messing up but planning to add it soon as 1.4 messed it up
• Level 3 chests (Something new to spice up the game)

If you see anything else, let us know but we are working on it in our end.

So my donor will probbaly run out before i can play just because i have a windows xp *Sigh*

Alright, the servers are basically unplayable for me now because of lag... is there any reason to believe this will improve?

To those who cant resolve host name/unknown host, go back and read my earlier posts!

We will be looking into this as fast as we can as apparently this is just a compatibility issue with the 12 year old operating system. Checking out microsofts website for any hotfixes we can tell you to install

Just out of curiosity why did you make it so that when a server restarts?

We have a large flow of people, so this helps to get everyone in our servers and a change to play. The technical side of it is that it clears RAM and makes sure the next game is completely stable from having a fresh start.

Alright, the servers are basically unplayable for me now because of lag... is there any reason to believe this will improve?

Bukkit will only improve from this point on, so yes. Give it a week or so and our servers will start becoming more stable. This is the case for any update season and the next few weeks will be bumpy for most communities.

Well sometimes i get that glitch where I cant hit people, and sometimes I dont. MCSG is now a game of luck, not skill.

Sigh.....
