hey, i made a new server for 1.8 but when i try to connect, i get an error saying the servers outdated, but its not, i just installed bukkit today
http://ci.bukkit.org/job/dev-CraftBukkit/ Look on the left side, download the latest one. Right now it's #1134. If you have 50 players then you probably have a lot of plugins too - do not paste the new build into your production server until you've tested each of your plugins to make sure they are compatible! It could really break everything. And of course, backup before you try. Endermen don't work properly, nether portals don't work, and Experience Orbs will lag your server to hell. Download this plugin to work-around the orbs problem.
It was told countless times. "DO NOT UPDATE TO 1.8 TILL CB FOR 1.8 IS RECOMMENDET AND DONE!" ^^ Now.. you have MC1.8.1 i pressume, 50 ppl raging to play MC1.8+ server, ... but NO stable craftbukkit build. What does that lead to? 50 ppl ragin even MORE when stuff doesn't work as it should, crashes, suicides, explosions and the ressurection of Adolf Hitler and Osama Bin Laden at once! And one or 50+! ppl saying your server is crap. Be a dear to yourself and your "like 50 people" and downgrade to 1.7.3 and have a fun gaming time or tell them to chronofreeze themselves in a time capsule till CraftBukkit is stable and done. Well, your choice.
Such things are supposed to be backups.. Look, you can do it like I did. . I told my people "Here is the deal, we play 1.7.3 with plugins till CB for 1.8+ is complete or we play 1.8.1 with NO plugins on a NEW map (no bukkit) for a while and when CraftBukkit is stable we can always incoporate the new map via plugins that add portals (Stargate, Multiverse, CreativeGates.. etc ) to the old map. My people wanted to play 1.8 above all else so we use a vannila MC1.8.1 server now. And the people are happy. They can build they can explore, Its still Minecraft. And they know their progress on the old map and on our new will not be lost. When CraftBukkit is done, plugin support will be enabled again.
Oh. So I just delete CraftBukkit and my server wont be "Outdated" and save the map files? Or how do I make is 1.8 and ect. with a new map?
