[News&Updates] Aceon - The HGN Minecraft RP Server - MineCraft: Aceon Fantasy Roleplay

Aceon

What is Aceon??
Aceon is a Roleplay Server using the medium game of Minecraft. It is set in a world built by the players, and changed by their actions. It is a Fantasy based server, and is currently set in a dark age. Think back to the fall of the Roman Empire, and all of the knowledge that was lost during that time. This means that there are no advanced technologies! We are currently set on an island off the coast of mainland Aceon called Elmphore. You can be whatever you like to be on Aceon, but don't be silly. The number one rule is, don't be stupid.

Connecting information.

Server ip: 69.162.76.234

Our modern currency (for those who are still advanced enough to use it) is called the "Drachma". If you want to join, just hop onto the server, we do not currently have a whitelist. If building a town, check out this this guideline here: http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=89031

New plugins are now on the server.

izone - Block protect, request protection from op's. However we may be doing applications soon since it's kind of a big deal.
ieconomy - Money basically.
Local chat - Finally! No more global rp chat. You can type /me for ooc.
Boundry Mod - Added to stop players going toooo- far out of the map and causing lag and well.. not very roleplayable when people are so far away.

Craftbukkit isn't ready for 1.5 yet. Waiting for update.

Minecraft server is now up and operational.

Paintcheck · **Reply #4 on:** 27-04-2011

The server will be wiped some time tonight as the votes show a clear majority in favor of wiping. Whitelists and stuff should stay, only the map will be reset. That means player inventories will be lost but everyone will be starting again. Hopefully this will allow for more RP as people keep their cities closer together.

Added new plugins:

Factions - Complicated faction system, allows creation, ally, faction spawns etc.
Vampire - Players can become vampires and infect other people.
Ishop - Create your own shops.

Silver Knight · **Reply #6 on:** 06-05-2011

Updated several plugins.

Added several plugins:
Ancient portals (Portals will be placed in towns to teleport back and forth to make the world easier to navigate and roleplay on)
Lockette (Lock your containers to secure them, this can be used for yourself or factions, multiple people can have access)
Blacksmith (Repair your stuff for a small price using ieconomy)

Plugins removed:
Vampire - Was buggy and unneeded.

The book mod needs to be patched and we are currently waiting for plugins suited for the latest revision of Minecraft and bukkit to the same measure, seeing as mojang fixed the discrepancy that made us not update in the first place.

Feerman · **Reply #9 on:** 09-07-2011

I accidentally updated, but whaddya know! The server is 1.7.3 compatible. Just sayin.

Quoth the Word of Notch

Quote

Pre releases and Adventure Updates

The adventure update is going great! We’re adding features and cramming in content, and then started feature creeping and content creeping. What we’ve got on our hands now is somewhere in between a finished Adventure Mode update and a version of the game we’d be proud to call just “Minecraft”. Not “Minecraft Beta” or “Minecraft Alpha”, but just plain and simple “Minecraft”.

And we’re going to release that version of the game live on stage in Vegas at MineCon! Woooo!

Up until then, instead of trying to squeeze in another real release, we’re going to do weekly (or so) pre releases, aimed at advanced players. We release these via twitter, so make sure to follow me (@notch) and Jens (@jeb_) if you’re interested in those.

Also, we’re finally adding a dragon.

TL;DR

NOTCH SEZ: WE NOT UPDATE UNTIL GAME DONE.

Translation: 1.9 indefinitely postponed.

ATTENTION: In this downtime, Server Manager Portkins will be changing the map, to the one he planned here: http://www.forums.hypergamer.net/minecraft-aceon-medieval-roleplay/aceon-1-9-map-previewdevelopment-thread-opinions-wanted!/

All chests, inventories will be deleted, however you will retain your iConomy accounts.

Thank you for you understanding and playing with us on Aceon.
