That's pretty much the whole spiel she gives in her forum post. The only thing I could fathom she's talking about is the MOTD in server.properties. If there's another one please I'd love to know. Also as I mentioned I did try using the CommandBook plugins as well and still it did not work. I also have looked for YouTube videos to show me exactly how to do it and so far I've come up with nothing. Anyone have a link to some or know what Lothos is talking about when he says I'm editing the wrong wrong MOTD? EDIT: After even more searching I found a way to remove the ridiculous limitation of the Rei's Minimap. Simply go to this website. http://minecraftmonkey.wordpress.com/2012/04/24/reimonkey/ Download the files and put them in your minecraft.jar. Now the entities work no matter what the server admins do on the server. I'm telling you I've done a lot of modding and this is by far the most ridiculous amount of hoops I've ever had to jump through to get something so small to work. I'm sure most of it is due to Rei's limited English or something, but I'm glad to finally just have a solution.

Yeah I was told you do that by putting in special characters in the MOTD section. As documented that didn't work out well. Is there somewhere else I have to turn it on like in some config file?

No suggestions from anyone?

Launcher Version: 1.0.2.0 Operating System: Windows 8 Java Version: Java 7 update 9 Antivirus Program: Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2013 Description of Problem: I open up the tekkit launcher and get "Could not connect to minecraft.net" and also it won't let me connect to my tekkit server. If I select work offline I can play single player fine, but I try to use my server which worked fine in Windows 7 I get "Communication Error". I host the server on this PC so I've tried it with my 192 IP addr and also with the IP of the server. I've turned off Windows FIrewall, turned of Kaspersky completely, and I've done a reboot. Still not working. Any help would be appreciated. Error Messages: "Could not connect to minecraft.net" Error Log:

Before the avalanche of "use the search" and "try google" comes let me tell you I've already done that. This is what I've tried so far. - Tried just changing the MOTD in server properties...failed - Tried using Essentials plugin and using MOTD.txt file...failed - Tried to use CommandBook or whatever it's called and it won't load no matter what version of it and World Loader I use. - I've tried different wrappers even. "&Black&Black&Dark_Green&Dark_Aqua&Yellow&White", "&0&0&2&3&7&8", etc I'm using the Tekkit launcher with Minecraft 1.2.5. I've tried Rei's Minimap version 3.2_05 & 3.2_04. I'd really like to be able to see entities on my server. I have a feeling I'm missing something I just don't know what. Any help is appreciated, and any links that do not involve exactly what I've tried will be attempted.
