Do not update to 1.2

[Stevey]

1.2 Is due out soon, however there are some complications to be expected when updating to 1.2

We will first need to wait for the 1.2 to be released. However with the release of 1.2 bukkit, a lot of old plugins will break because they are cleaning up their code. This means it might or might not take us longer to get the server up for 1.2. We are simply not sure.

To be sure do not update to 1.2 if you wish to play on Hollowworld. When you start your minecraft it will ask if you want to update it, click no.

We are as of yer unsure how and if jungles will be implemented into the Northern Kingdoms. If at all possible, we will surely do so.

The Southern Kingdoms will be reset to make use of the new terrain.

How u do backup?

Go to
%appdata%
Then go to the Roaming folder
then go to the .minecraft folder
Then go to Bin
Then copy your minecraft.jar and paste it back in
Re-name the copy "minecraft-1.1.jar"
Switch between this one and the new one that will generate by re-naming them each time.

and when playing on the 1.1 version DO NOT UPDATE WHEN PROMPTED. There is no legal way to recover the 1.1 client.

So we are or are we not carrying over towns, chests inventories ect?

I think I can say for the admin team that everything will in fact be brought over... Do call me out if this is wrong *crosses fingers hoping he's right*

Why would implementing jungles be a problem if there was a reset?

 

[Stevey]

We are not resetting the Northern Kingdoms.​

Jungle will not be appear in 1.0 world Altera but at least it can plant saplings here.

When the update comes out I want to be around to see all the rage posts by people who did update unknowingly… I'm evil, I know.

Maybe there should be an announcement, saying not to update to 1.2 until it is known that HollowWorld will not be having problems/delays, because some or most people DO NOT surf the forums… unlike some people.

i updated before i read, lol is there no way of going back an update so i can log in?

I'm not repeating posts other people made. But look a bit up, and you find what you need.

 

[Kaies]

I thought minecraft automatically backed up older versions anyway?

 

[cherbert]

1.2 (1.2.2 to be precise) has been released.

with windows 7 you can recover previos versions though so it is easy
