i cant join any servers

The only server that doesn't work for me is Tekkit.

Don't know if this would work, but try this (doubt it will):

1. Switch off your internet
2. Wait a few secs (Recommended 10secs, 15 would be better)
3. Turn it back on
4. Try to connect to the servers

I gotta try this, it might help me have no lag.

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.

but i dont have windows xp i have windows 7

any hints on types of items in tier 3 chests?

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.

Joyous news! Thanks Chad.

why does it say too many people joining

 

[BlazeMaster]

Just out of curiosity why did you make it so that when a server restarts and goes back up when everyone is trying to join, it says that there is to many people logging in, try again? Now because of this when I wait for a server to restart and try joining every time I get that message and can not play!

It has not fully restarted yet, wait untill the 0/24 goes away and then i should go ofline.

So there is a couple of bugs that I have noticed, there is a hitting bug were I have only been able to get puffs of smoke and the other person can't hit me either. A couple of ways I have tried is run away and brake a block, it catches up with the technical stuff and realized it was behind and catches up so you can hit other people and open chests.

When connecting to the servers I have noticed it sometimes randomly says when on 1.4 that you are on an outdated Minecraft and the servers are on 1.3. A couple of things I have tried is quitting Minecraft and bringing it up again and trying to rejoin, or refreshing the servers list.

An I have also noticed hardly any hackers. So that means No-Cheat Plus is working fine, but there is a bit of sever lag involved.

this is probably due to bukkit, these problems should be fixed by next week.
