  • The Galahad Gigadump - Part 2 (August to October 2014)

    On July 7, 2021, @"Alco_Rs11"#91 (Galahad's younger brother) discovered a massive treasure trove whilst digging through hard drives that came from a bunch of old computers: Galahad's Minecraft screenshots folder from 2014 - 2016. Filled to the brim with old TotalFreedom content. After setting things up so that he could transfer the data to my computer directly, I decided to analyze and dump them. In terms of how much data was discovered, this is without a doubt the biggest dump in this server's history.

    Because there are so many links, this thread's months had to be separated by posts, otherwise Flarum would throw a hissy fit. I apologize for the inconvenience.

  • The Galahad Gigadump - Part 1 (May to July 2014)

    Earlier today, @"Alco_Rs11"#91 sent me a screenshot of something incredible. He had been digging through hard drives that came from a bunch of old computers when he discovered a massive treasure trove: Galahad's Minecraft screenshots folder from 2014 - 2016. Filled to the brim with old TotalFreedom content. In terms of how much data was discovered, this is without a doubt the biggest dump in this server's history.

    This dump is so fucking big that I've decided to split up all of the screenshots by month for each thread. In addition, this list will be split into multiple threads. Each thread will have 3 months worth of screenshots.

  • Attempting to disband a guild throws a NullPointerException

    I really, really hate TFGuilds.


    Date and Time (please include the timezone):
    July 6, 2021 at 7:11 PM


    Describe the bug or exploit:
    Attempting to run the command /guilds disband causes the plugin to flip the fuck out and throw a NullPointerException.

    Plugin(s) impacted:
    Everyone's favorite plugin, TF-Guilds.


    Expected behaviour (if known):
    For the plugin to not throw a fucking NullPointerException.


    Step to reproduce:

    1. Attempt to disband a guild with /g disband.

    Which server did you find the bug (Freedom-01 or Freedom-02)?
    Freedom-01


    Can the bug or exploit be reproduced on another server within the network?
    Probably.

  • Essentials throws a NullPointerException every time someone joins

    Date and Time (please include the timezone):
    July 6, 2021 at 4:34 PM MDT


    Describe the bug or exploit:
    Every time someone joins the server, Essentials overwrites the join message with its own. However, for some reason the plugin starts throwing a NullPointerException after a while instead, resulting in no "joined the game" message showing up when it should.

    Code
    :[22:43:36 INFO]: UUID of player HyperSaw13 is 03cb62b3-eeca-4f25-812d-c32b2b547b6f  
:[22:43:36 INFO]: HyperSaw13[/<censored>] logged in with entity id 74849 at (<censored>)  
:[22:43:36 WARN]: Task #5671755 for Essentials v2.19.0-dev+159-8204224 generated an exceptionjava.lang.NullPointerException

    Plugin(s) impacted:
    Essentials


    Expected behaviour (if known):
    The plugin properly overrides the join message and does not throw a NullPointerException upon joining.


    Step to reproduce:

    1. Join the server.

    Which server did you find the bug (Freedom-01 or Freedom-02)?
    Freedom-01


    Can the bug or exploit be reproduced on another server within the network?
    Not sure.

  • December 2010 server metadata

    I was digging through an old scrape of MobileMe (the precursor to iCloud) done by ArchiveTeam in mid-2012 and found a copy of Mark's data. While the amount of data in the scrape was lacking, there was one piece of data that was present, and that was a .DS_Store file.
    https://videogamesm12.me/aWhq7GkvdxTe.png


    The .DS_Store file (according to the HTTP headers stored in the WARC file) was last modified on December 3, 2010 at 02:26:27 GMT.

    Sadly, none of the files the DS_Store file contained metadata for were included in the scrape. However, the file does still give us a list of file names. I believe many of the files are related to TF in some form for two reasons.

    1. Hey0 (referred to as hMod by its creator) is the precursor to Bukkit.
    2. Hey0 has been mentioned many times in another piece of TF-related historical documentation from the same time period.

    Here is the aforementioned list:

    • clouds.jpg
    • Hey0.7z
    • minecraft.jar
    • MineSnapShot.png
    • PigsinHell.jpg
    • plugins.7z
    • World.rar

    Here's the contents of the aforementioned DS_Store file, viewed in Notepad:
