1.8 Gamemode

  • So I'm curious on peoples thoughts (Especially @"redeastwood"#47 's). Looking at the stats, around 10% of the connections to the server are from a 1.8.* client, which got me thinking. Would that be a good version to create a Freedom server using.


    I'm not sure how it would work, I suspect we'd use a current version of TFM but convert it to run 1.8 Minecraft rather than use an older version of TFM, but would be curious to hear peoples thoughts.

  • it would defo be a lot more stable then modern minecraft. that or a 1.12 version

    i fucking put everything into you and you stomped on it.

  • This game version wasn't really ever safe for a freedom environment. If we wanted to have a PvP server running 1.8 and ViaBackwards or something that would make more sense.

  • @'Panther' If we are committed to keeping this server on 1.8 forever, we can look into manually fixing exploits that are specific to that version. ViaBackwards (with ViaRewind) seems somewhat awkward to me: if you block all versions except 1.8, what is the purpose of the server being newer, and if you don't, why wouldn't we just add it to Freedom-01 instead?

  • For now I'm going to shelve this, it didn't quite get the support I had hoped for, and as stated if there's a lot of patching up to do, we probably won't have dev capacity to do it for a while.
