Shut Mcsg Down til bugs are fixed

[reven86]

Ok this isn't something I would normally say, but I've played 5 straight games today, and died to the same exact donor 5 games in a row who is in /d and he is invisble, and I am not. I am also in /d, but he can see me, but I can't see him. The game is literally unplayable for anyone who has these invisible people they are fighting.

Not to mention all the glitched t2's that seem to be completely empty on most maps i've played so far.

Mcsg need to shut the servers down until these bugs are fixed because these glitches make the game unplayable.

Or revert back to 1.7 support...

That doesn't help anything at all ;-;

First of all, I think that completely shutting down the server is a no. Thousands of players get on MCGamer after school or throughout the day. We don't want to let them down. On the other hand, it might be possible to disable the disguise feature until it's fixed. I am going to be going around the network fishing for bugs to report. If you find any, please report them the bug tracker.

Regarding reverting back to 1.7, I have a few things to say. When we upgraded to 1.7, so many people were angry and upset and now you guys don't want us to go back. With the capabilities Minecraft gives to Multiplayer Servers, we can fix some of the issues you guys see using our own code. Additionally, 1.8 will and is allow(ing) us to use some new features like spectator mode, new blocks for maps, etc. Finally, it will make it a lot easier for the developers to code on one system, which may even get the Leaderboards Update finished faster.

I agree. Although I quit MCSG, and it shouldn't concern me as much, I watched some videos and it is very frustrating for other players!

Yes

lol they aren't going to want to play after school when they are dying every game to invisible players, its just going to cause rage like has already happened. So many people raging in game because of this.

but disabling the /d function does seem like the smart way to go. However, this bug needs fixed ASAP. If you keep these donor and VIP's and mods without the /d function for long, it's also gonna cause rage.

On a side note, i've realized that if you are /d on 1.8.1, you aren't invisible to people. On 1.8 however, you are invisible to everyone if you are /d. If you are /d on 1.8.1, you just can't see people in /d on 1.8. It's weird. HUGE advantage for people playing 1.8.

I will agree with everything you've stated in this post aside from "coding on one system". I don't know who started the rumour that on the dual version of Spigot 1.7/1.8 that the developers had to effectively code the plugin twice, but this is completely incorrect.

The dual Spigot version modified the protocol of incoming 1.8 clients, "downgrading" them so that they could connect to a 1.7 server. There was only one plugin, which was coded to work for 1.7. This is why there were no significant 1.8 features added; any major interactions that could occur where one client was using a 1.7 and another was using a 1.8 client could not occur, because the 1.7 client would be unable to process that information correctly.

It's a small point to make, but I feel it's one that it's one that needs to stop being used, since it's complete bologna.

That is probably not true for all players, like I never get that issue

lol every single donor friend I have talked to, says that glitch works. Try it once, do 1.8 NOT 1.8.1 and do /D IN THE HUB then join a game. If you do /d in a game AKA lobby, it does not work. You will be invisible to everyone if done properly.
