Welcome!
So, about the Gates...
I want to start the "Grinders and Farms Road".
Everybody having mob grinders and decent farms could have a portal for this. I think Harvester, Gold Nugget Farm, Endermen Farm, Blaze Rod Farm and my own.
So what if we use the Cobblestone Gates for that route?

Hey guys, my friends and I are trying to start ourselves a minecraft server, and we're getting some crazy lag right now. Does anyone know what the specs of the neocraft server are? Just so we can know if we're in the ballpark.
Ok so the "Grinders And Farms Road" had started.
There's now a gate that links to my new Mob Grinder. It's cobblestone to use for those gates. I'll be waiting for other players linking their mob grinders and farms or simply ask me to do it and I'll do.
Yeah that was me. Been drowning in Iron so...

Thanks again!Yeah that was me. Been drowning in Iron so...
Also, anyone drowning in diamonds?
Another month or two and my mob farm should finally be finished lol. 1500 more pistons to go
How about this for a portal hub? I still like my floating island, but I look at it and don't know what to do with it and It is a little cramped. I kinda came up with this as I was making mountains(which I love to do btw!).
Large structure set between 3 mountain ranges in a bay with an opening to an ocean, if you want to see it head north from the floating island if you know where that is.
Was thinking the main portal(the one from spawn) in the middle on raised platform. A limited number of other portal( like community projects like Domepolis) in the back towers with stairs leading down in the front towers to a lower section with personal portals. Thoughts?
what texture pack is that? I love those clouds
Thanks again!
Also, anyone drowning in diamonds?
Check Skycity, on the main island behind the market is Splashrider's old place, she left a chest with some goodies in it for people to take, if I recall there are some diamond tools there.

I'll add a link at the gold farm warp when I get a chance.
Thanks again!
Also, anyone drowning in diamonds?
Normally I wouldn't think twice about donating a diamond pick. Unfortunately due the the recent addition of gates my diamond supply is dangerously low. It be time I spend a couple days underground.
We don't have a specific thread on the topic. There's a whole forum category over at minecraftforum.net which should help get you on your way.
I recommend looking in to Magic Launcher to help with managing and installing mods, seems to work quite slick for me. As for mods I use Optifine and Rei's Minimap. Optifine helps to improve minecraft performance and gives the user greater control over graphical settings. If there's one mod to get it's Optifine. Rei's Minimap provides the game with a handy minimap which shows mob and player locations, gives a good over view of the land, allows the placement of waypoints, and other things I don't pay attention to.
Is there any reason to use the official Minecraft server software versus something like Bukkit? Looking into Bukkit I see you can setup plugins for remote administration and what seems like a ton of other stuff, so I'm wondering if I should shift my existing Minecraft survival server that myself and a few buddies have made a decently lived in world on over to Bukkit or some other well-regarding third party server software.
Unrelated (mostly!) I was and am super impressed by the Neocraft server; reading some of the discussion here it sounds like it's mostly a survival server (versus creative) so the amount of work that has gone into that, playing it mostly (entirely?) straight survival is absolutely nuts to me.

Well, with all the harvesters and grinders you can use, it isn't exactly straight survival now.
Not so straight as it uses Bukkit mod, Creative mode, Creative Gates mod, etc.
People also have flying habilities too. For sure you can play survival for yourself though. That's what I do. I never fly, never spawn stuff,etc.
Also, a survival server in multiplayer would also mean PVP which Neocraft isn't.
Man this is pissing me off. I'm trying to install Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders but it's just not working. I'm doing what the instructions say but my game just won't take it. The game loads up, doesn't look any different than stock and as soon as I open my inventory the game crashes.
I'm trying different methods and it just doesn't work. Now I just get a black screen as soon as I boot up the game.

Ah, wasn't quite sure of the setup but hearing people talk about borrowing diamond tools and what not gave me a somewhat incorrect impression; whatever it is, it's damn impressive and one day I will likely make some humble addition to it hopefully.
I think I'll try switching my existing server to a Bukkit server tonight simply for things like remote administration and auto-saves.
People can choose to play in creative or survival mode. Totally up to them.

Harvester is linked to the gates.

Most of my build has been survival. There have been somethings done in creative for testing and also because of the danger involved with the work (really really really high up). Either way though there are some super impressive builds on the server.

I have clouds turned off, what you see is the skybox that the texture pack is using.
I love it!

As Ark said the choice is up to the player. We're quite accepting of both play styles. There are projects which are simply not feasible to do in survival, especially when done by one person.
The majority of my Minecrafting is done in survival mode. I collect all my building materials* the hard way. As for mob grinders, I have no qualms using them. There are times on community projects I'll switch over to creative mode but all my own projects are done in survival. When in creative I opt not to spawn materials. If I want diamond I go out an mine it.
* My exception is Chiseled Stone Brick, why we can't craft this is beyond me.

Was inspired by something at Domepolis so I had to expand it.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww I have to say I am quite literally "speechless". I don't know whether to thank you or ban you ;-) But at least the character models in the pixel art are better than the character models in Mass Effect 3.

Sounds quite similar to an experience I had with that moat.

You love it, just admit it. Now when domepolis is finished you should move them to a nice shrine somewhere.

Wow, Quartz looks awesome.

I cannot wait to incorporate Hoppers into my automatic chicken farm. I just wish they'd create pipes that I can use to then take the items from the bottom and push them back up to the top. Or at the very least let us connect Hopper's horizontally and upwards. Piping would be so much more useful.
Do Hoppers still only work with one of the two chests in a double-chest? I really hope they fix that somehow so that double-chests can be treated as a single entity. Right now when a hopper fills up the half it's connected to it will stop instead of flowing into the other half. Seems like it'd be a trivial thing to fix. Make it so when the hopper attempts to put an item in a chest that is full it just checks for a connected chest to dispense into instead.

We're gonna have to go a loooong ways in the nether to get to newly generated stuff, lol.
But, by the looks of it, totally worth it. Finally some good lookin' blocks!

So how common is Nether Quartz? Is it very common or a rare thing? By the looks of how much you can do with it I would hope it'd be pretty common.

According to the wiki, about as common as iron is in the overworld - but due to how the Nether is set up, it's much easier to spot.
It seems to be quite common from videos I've watched.
As far as Im aware hoppers can be connected horizontally. For upward transport you can just use minecarts or there are also very simple item elevator designs that work very well

I don't want to rely on carts or quirks in the game to move items upwards. I'd much rather have official means like pipes or upside-down/horizontal hoppers.
Carts would be a last resort, but would be such overkill and a huge mess in larger storage facilities.

What on earth would people use this minecart bomb for? Seems like a waste of iron to me, lol.

Yeah, I'm a bit confused at its inclusion myself. But I guess it's meant more for PvP servers and traps in Adventure Maps. Not for normal creative and survival.
