Server Crash

[14mRh4X0r]

Hi guys,



My laptop just cut off the power to itself about 15 minutes ago, probably due to overheating.

But the RP server was used and thus the world save became corrupted. Only a few chunks were not corrupted, but the other ones were regenerated.

This means that the most of the city is fucked up, mine shafts are not there anymore and trees were spawned on grass randomly.

Also, both "watchtowers" have only one wall left.



Sorry guys

P.S. All houses/homes (AFAIK them) are saved

Oh man *checks it out*



Well, time to mostly restart?

 

[TheRevTastic]

Im guessing so

.

It seems more than just the map itself is glitched. A lot of things are buggy now.

This. The world has become quite unstable now, hence the downtime.

Probably wanna start a new world.

What do you think? (Polls added)

woah, epic two polls at once.

The RP server need it's own section, so we can make guild thread.

Yeah, definitely start a new world. Notch added lakes of water and lava today, so this new world should be quite the balls.

 

[14mRh4X0r]

Alright, fair enough; I generated a new world and swapped ports.

Ah, the surrp.ath.cx/~willem/RP.png is still the old corrupted file? What happened?

Oh, right, need to edit the crontab still.

I just generated a new world, but I still have the old one, and my cronjob is set to that map

I love how the corrupted map has "MINECRAFT TROLOLOL" written in stone near the bottom left.

I made that as a goodbye message. Too bad I accidentally did it upside down

Thar it is

Luckily cartograph has a flip option

As you may already have noticed, there was a server crash again, Saturday. My CPU was overheated, and some chunks were simply truncated to 0 size, probably due to delayed allocation. Thus I was not able to recover those chunks, but there's always the ability to recover them. For this purpose I'll upload the map with the missing chunks. But if you'd rather start a new world (again), please say so. Also note that any newly generated terrain will not be a smooth extention to the map, as the seed for generating has been lost too.

EDIT: scratch the recovering. There are so many missing chunks that it's nigh impossible.
