In honor of our Admin Extist's birthday today... were going to be hosting a little mob spawning event. followed by some firework shows..random mob events. and ofcourse, cake. eveyrones welcome to come join

Im proud to announce no crashes in 1 full week. the sever as been adjusted to allow 4 hour restart times. World is def. growing by leaps and bounds. lots of players on at almost any time of day. I plan to do some fun stuff on the moon planet. maybe make some buggy races?

hey everyone, Im familiar with issues we've had in the past on hexxit 1.5.2 with better storage and TC mechworks But since this is an updated version, as any tested to see if these are still issues with 1.6.4 ? I haven't tested the Drawbridges, I plan to do so tonight. 1) are Storage crates still causeing Dupe issues with Backpacks? 2) are Drawbridges still Causeing crashes and Corrupting Chunks ? If you put a DrawBridge inside of another drawbridge and try to use redstone on in it to activate it, ... It will crash you launcher and corrupt that chunk for the server. (though the server will not crash, just anyone loading that chunk will crash) I plan to test both issues later tonight to find the answers, but I was wondering if anyone else as had experience with this or any other crash issues they would like to note for server owners. ive had def. crash issues with Mr Crayfish Stove oven. and the Invisiable Volleyball (creative only)

Wow. this would be interesting to know. This will kill servers once this info gets out. making Some PvP'ers very happy and NOn-PvPers very angry

im working on a new system that hopefully will only only prevent certain items from being used on the Towny worlds. Mainly due to greif issues to towns. But in the PvP worlds, you would be able to use these items to your hearts content. were doing tests on the drawbridges, since previously they were corrupting chunks on our hexxit server. this appers to be updated to a newer version. but we have to test to make sure that they don't corrupt chunks on our server before we release them.

We've added a fun new game to our website. Now, if you join our website, and vote for hexxit or bteam. as long as you vote at least 4 times in 1 week for either server. (that's 2 times today, and 2 times tommorw) you'll get 2 enjin points added to your account which you can use at our donation shop for free loot and kits. Also, if your the TOP voter for the week for either Hexxit OR Bteam you'll get 10 points added to your enjin account which you can use in our server shop as well we tried to add this as another fun way to thank you for supporting our server (and helping us to advertise)

I noticed you were orgianally advertiseing you were going to use towny. why did you decide to remove and go with factions? Towny can be a pain to setup. but it protects all the modded blocks better and is more configurable. factions really isn't as versatile. what I like about towny, is you can do per plot permissions. or per town permissions. With factions, you pretty much can only do Per faction permissions. there both fun. But if you going to go with one or the other, I would highly recommend considering towny.

Server is updated to 1.0.9. come enjoy the new DIM9...only question I have is, How do you get to DIM 9 ?

ya,,...? the the server wasn't crashing, it was a 'failed to connect to minecraft servers' error. meaning something with mojang. ive never seen it before. but the server, never crashed. people just couldn't log on. were working on updating to 1.0.9 at the moment. it should be fully ready by tommorw.

looks like everythings going smooth and normal again. we 44 people on at one time over the weekend. I was told we did have small lag spikes. but It was nothing major. seems like its really starting to come alive on our bteam server

I like the idea of anarchy servers. you may want to add towny. it takes a lot of configureing to get it to protect. but, it would allow anarchy, but at the same give players a safe place to call home and build. plus, each town is compete configuarable by the mayor/owner of the town. so he can decide to allow greif within his lands or protect his land all togheter. he can allow to let residents build/mine or not. I run a 'CONTROLLED" anarchy style server. and towny fits in real well with the concept. good luck with your endeavours. this modpack is def fun for anarchy style playing

we've had a lot of crash issues on our bteam server that had to be resolved. so I've been lacking on hexxit updates.but heres whats planned for this week: 1) TIER 4 of the battle tower is finally complete! if you can make it there and win it, you'll get some great loot 2) the PvE [world] is being reset tonight. I've also increased spawn rate for towers. so it should have a few more battle towers to enjoy 3) the Dungeon world is running late on its reset. ( I was on vacation, and my map maker as been busy as well) but, it is planned to reset this Friday by midnight. this till it will be a PvP World. so you better make friends. 4) LvL 1-4 of the epic maze is almost done. its def. getting harder....and its still on easy mode 5) Ive finished our first basic battlearena. it just a 1 vs 1 fist fight. it will cost: $25 bucks to enter the ring. if you win you'll get $50. a great way to battle it out together. more arenas are planned this week for 4 and 8 player versions.

sorry for the crashes everyone. it wasn't an issue with towny or with any plugin. it was an issue with the host. This problem as since been resolved and server is back to 100% again I've place a "sorry for the crashes kit" at /spawn its free for all players. It def has a lot of great goodies from various mods to enjoy dragon eggs, flans guns, witchery, diamonds, and other stuff to play with. you can only get this kit once, it will be available unitl march 10th at midnight.

hey yoda, please go to our website for more info. I always update our website frst before I update here. it was temp white listed while we ran tests. we had a conflict issue with towny that had to be resolved before opening it back up. its OPEN now for anyone to play. were terriably sorry for the downtime we had over the weekend. I was on vacation so I could fix the issue until this evening. I plan to a kit soon to our website shop to give all players a compensation gift. for the downtime. check our website BTEAM Shop or the NEWS section on the Home page for an update on when this will me made avail.

hey instanity, my staff never told me the exact time and date of instance: I can review chat logs and see what may have happened, but what was the date and aprx. time: what were the Gamertags of the players involved? I stay very busy with real life work, the admins never really told me much about what happened, only that it happened in PvP world. I got on them pretty harshly for going against our anarchy policy for PvP worlds. most of htem should've known better cause they've been part of our server style for a long time. but some of them are still learning how to be good admins as well. as you said yourself: you didn't have a faction. sooooo? you didn't claim your land. that would be the reason were raidied. you were in a PvP world with no claimed faction land. so your loot was not protected un anyway. ANY player could have greifed you. Next time , claim your land. either with factions or towny. also, the towny chunk radius is the same as factions....16x16 chunk. as we've stated in the outset on our websites and on the server post. we have 2 different world styles. pvp. and pve. In the CITY world to be able to build or mine YOU HAVE TO OWN A TOWN. then, you can build within your town radius. this is a style of play we do on all our servers to cut down on any greif issues on main. (I.E. pillars to the sky...minon mines all over the place.) we did open a PvE rescource world recently, in THAT World you can build and mine anywhere. However yout cant claim land to build a permamanent and safe base. this new design will def. be a lo more straight forward, pointing you immediately to what style you want to do. I have nicknamed our towny worlds : /warp city on the [warp] city world, you make a town to claim land and build or mine. this world is 99% greif proof and protected under our 2nd rule. our [warp] pve and [warp] pvp worlds are just what the name implies. you can do whatever you want in either. no rules. however, towny does not work in PvE as it resets every few weeks/months. factions ONLY works in PvP. im sorry, you had a bad experience. we are in alpha testing so your feedback is much appericated. I have since chewed my bteam staff out heavily for not following our admin server rules on pvp worlds. they no understand better what our pvp worlds are for. and that they are to offer no assitaince in getting materials back from pvp'ed players. in our city world however, we will work to find out who broke rule 2 and jail them for a long time. and help to compensate you if we can. I hope this clears up any confustion in the future.

your welcome to apply, just go to our website and look under the tab that says "applications" make sure to post on the proper thread, either hexxit or bteam. Reg is the owner for bteam, so he would decide on your application. good luck!

huh? you quoted your self sayin love it great server. .and then said thanks man..hope you enjoy.. are 2 different people using your technic account? tech..its kinda byass to say you love your own server and then say thanks..to yourself. I don't get it.

based on player feedback, we re-configured ores so they spawn alittle better but don't damge an economy feel. redstone is generating like crazy at the bottom of the maps. so we have lowed it down slightly so it has value in the economy. we moved the world folders around so that the nether portal will now only activate in the pvp world. this will prevent any possible greif (accidental or on purpose) of towns on the main world.

The battletower is almost finished. the layout is done. however, endermen are teleporting outside of arena when you hit them. I hope to resolve this tonight. all plots are now avail and for sale on the SW side of the city. the admins and I are working next on making the land avail to buy on the NW side of the city. if you don't want to mess with towny. you can simply find land that's for sale around spawn and do /plot claim. or, go make your own town. with /t new {name} we also added kits. which have fun stuff in them. for instance, the meteorite armor kit comes with meteor summoners and some essences gernades. you can buy these kits with in game money you earn. Ive also remove /back command since it was causeing harassment issues. and not conveying the proper fear I want people to have when playing in a pvp world. you can still use /sethome to save points around the world.

Hey hodger, sorry, it was temp white listed why im made some nesscary world folder changes. these changes were done to stop future greif issues on towns, and to allow nether portals to be made in the pvp world. due to this issues, I had to whitelist server. there is also a new TEMP RULE #3 in place until march 14th. make sure you understand that rule. check our website to see the post on the news. www.hooptiesworld.enjin.com I always let anyone know if I have to do anything major, there first. going forward, there shouldn't be anymore major changes like that. Im hoping in another month to take it out of alpha testing and officially open it up. as ready to play thanks for all your help on the server hodge1. let us know if theres any issues you find.

A new day dawns on our hexxit server! we've re-made spawn to be soooooooooooooo much easier to navigate. now, when you go to spawn. (or first join) you'll easily see the best warps to go to for either pvp or non-pvp. theres lots of other warps to learn. but these are the best ones to hit the ground running. I've also added a new kit system. so you can buy good amor and tools ingame as you progress we've also made the /warp help easier to notice so you can go there and get most of your questions answered about our server

Hi Insanity, im sorry you had a bad experience on our server. this is a controlled anarchy server. If they killed you, its cause as reg said. you were in a pvp world ill look thru chat and confirm. but it sounds like what reg said would be correct. someone tpa'd them. possibly one of your faction members. Its happened to me before too on faction/radiing servers. you can move to the main world if you don't want to pvp, or go to the moon or mars. or go to another server. Our servers not for everyone. Its still in alpha and will be in alpha for aleast another 2 months. Our 2 rules only server style is not for everyone. Good luck on whatever server you decide to join. make sure you join a PVE or NON-PVP server next time

yes. you can use them on any world. includeing the main towny worlds. as long as you don't use them to greif someones town. there on a warn list. if you use them to greif someones town, and they report it. you will be jailed. other than that. you can use em however you want same goes with minions.

I apologize for the recent misunderstandings on our server. Apperntly it was not relayed to the admins for them to understand the RULE 2 ONLY APPLIES TO TOWNY WORLDS. YES, greifing and Raiding IS allowed on ANY PVP WORLD. PVP worlds are anarchy style worlds. you use factions to claim land, make allies or make enemies. towny is used on main world, mars and moon only. These worlds are NON-PVP. and as long as you claim your land with towny, then theres no way anyone can greif you unless they use the titan or the minions. which would be breaking rule 2. (only pertains to TOWNY owned land.) again, i apologize for any confusion this may have lead to. Im meeting witth the head admin Monday to make sure he explains to all pmods and admins how pvp world works. IF an admin trys to say something differently, please let me know personally and i will make sure the admin is aware of the rules. GREIFING IS ALLOWED IN PVP WORLDS. This is a 2 rules only server.

24 hours. no crash! looks like we fixed our only crashing issue. a few changes coming over the weekend. 1) we've added a new pvp logger that prevent teleport commands during combat and kills you if you log out during combat. 2) currently nether and end portals can only be made from the main world at your towny base. I plan to adjust the world files this weekend so that nether portals will only be made instead from the PVP world. so there will be an advantage to owning a faction in the pvp world. this is to try and balance the challenge and perks of owning or being part of a town on main world or a faction on pvp worlds. 3) ore configuration as been raised for iorn and many other ores that were not spawning as much due to tweaks we did to the ore generation configs. you should start seeing them spawn a little more. 4) spawn is being re-made to be easier to leave. shops are still being worked on. we really encourage players to make shops. NO admin shops will EVER be on our server. The economy is started and maintained by you...they player, not me 5) Votifier as been added as way to get a little cash on the server, and show support if you like it. you'll only get up to 200 bucks. with votifier. 6) towny price is being raised to 100 dollars on the main world (from free) to keep people from strip mineing the main world with the minions. coming down the pipeline: looking for a good horse protection plugin. ive tried 2 already, but didn't like them. still looking. The head admin is coming back Monday and has some fun games planned for his return! We got some fun ideas coming with the flans mod and battlearenas. stay tuned!
