    Regarding a custom modpack for thr33p10's Mindcraft Server

    Well, so far as ideas thrown about in private with Admins, off the record, and talked about on the server itself, it seems that Biomes O'Plenty has some sky colourization issues (sudden change when crossing borders). We may be reconsidering that one... Mystcraft seems to be around to stay, as...

    Regarding a custom modpack for thr33p10's Mindcraft Server

    Hey people, I'm starting this to generate a little bit of an idea of what is thought regarding a custom modpack to use for a server instead of Mindcrack. For those of you who connect to thr33p10's Minecraft Server, this is a chance to put in your 2 bits about what you want/hope for, and what...

    Hardware!!

    So.. if you say that *GB, or 16GB would handle higher player numbers, how would you optimize the serverstart file for using that 8GB+ ? I've run 4GB, and tried 8GB, and found that the tps don't always follow getting better with increased memory... It's been a thorn in my side since getting that...

    Hardware!!

    Funny thing I've found running my server on an i7 processor and 16 GB RAM, the server java process only ever utilizes 10% of the CPU time at MOST (and rarely over 3GB RAM with up to 8 people). Honestly, I can only get the machine to get warm (i.e. over 30 Celcius) if there are at least one or...

    Hosting a Local FTB Ultimate server behind the router

    The server.sh (or .bat file, in the case of windows) is indeed where you would change java flag calls to increase the available memory. In a post I made earlier, I have an example of a more complex serverstart.bat file that enables additional garbage collector options, as well as memory...

    help, clay sculpture

    http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1351802-151-factorization-0725/ Check the last "spoiler" just before the Installation section... I figured out that if you make the first sculpting tool (stick with clay on it), you can put it back in the crafting grid and it changes the tool to another...

    Solved Server-side problem: Low TPS on main world

    Glad to say, the problem is solved.. I had one of our admins check out the area that was reportedly running the server at 5 TPS, and we found .. something .. not clearly identified yet, but it looked like a continually exploding ball being fed by bones from a skeleton spawned above and...

    Solved Server-side problem: Low TPS on main world

    Thanks for the suggestion of using tick threading, and the profile/tick commands! Initial reports on those suggested that 73% of my tick calculation are coming from the tile entities "generic tubes" and I now have a short list of chunk locations to scout for which builds are causing the...

    Solved Mindcrack 8.2.0 Server increasing lag - HELP please

    Problem more concisely identified... Java start options are about as optimized as they will ever be. The problem is somewhere on the server map :( :( :( Time to hunt down how to figure out where on the map the lag is coming from..

    Problem Server CPU Usage Extremely High

    I've been doing some experimenting on my Mindcrack Server (8.2.0) and found a nice few options to add to the bat file. You could try this as a starting point, and tune the memory figures or threads for GC (Garbage Collection), to suit. On a newly generated map file, I was seeing tick rates...

    Help me understand a more advanced startup file, please

    The mod that added multithreading did a great job of keeping the TPS at 20.. no questions asked. However, it seems that it was resetting chunks in addition :( I've reverted to a backup, and am hoping that there may be more suggestions that could help keep the TPS at 20 without this mod (at...

    Help me understand a more advanced startup file, please

    With a few more people getting onto the server, the tick has gone right back to the "can't keep up" (60ms - 70ms) level and pretty much decides to stay there... on the positive side, it's not "noticeable" but I'm afraid of what happens when we get to too many of the members online at once... Is...

    Help me understand a more advanced startup file, please

    Setting the ParallelGCThreads to 8 did seem to have a small effect on the tick rate.. it seems more likely to hang around the 30-40 mark this way, but the warning about server not keeping up still occurs. I may have to check out the multithreading mod to see if that makes a greater difference...

    Help me understand a more advanced startup file, please

    Two Questions (for glasspelican, if he sees this!) 1. Is that thread you were talking about the actually a reality? (where can I find it?) 2. If the above is a no, then may I ask an opinion of what should be changed to improve my server performance? I'll try to keep it concise, if not brief...

    Solved Mindcrack 8.2.0 Server increasing lag - HELP please

    Alright, there are still some problems with memory leaks somewhere... Despite the fantastic performance increase that I have seen with the java options I have used, it eventually runs the program to be using all allocated RAM now.. and then runs into the "out of heap" error. EDIT: pastebin of...

    Solved Mindcrack server lag

    I just saw this post a little earlier today. THANK YOU for this! The players on my server will probably wonder why it seems to be running so quickly now... :) heheh... EDIT: server has memory leaks still that are now causing a crash once maximum heap size is reached... anyone know of a...
