So I have hosted countless vanilla servers before, and edited them down to the last detail. I added pluggins as well with no issues and I'm sure this doesn't impress anyone, I am just establishing a basis of my knowledge.
For the last day or so I have been absolutely struggling with trying to either:
1: get pluggins on my server so that I can install world edit
2: successfully use MCEdit on my level.dat file and achieve any results what-so-ever
3: find any other alternative to import a building into my ftb monster server from a previous vanilla server.
My research trenched up something called Cauldron. This used to be called MCPC+. While I can download it in my windows environment just fine, the download links aren't working for my in my linux terminal based server that the ftb server is running on. I feel there must be an easier way than this anyways. I feel like MCEdit is the right tool and that Im just using it the wrong way, or missing additional files that I also need to edit.
When I use MCEdit to try and edit the level.dat file, the file opens just fine. The world is indeed my world and ,minus some abnormalities, is exactly how I had left it when I last stopped the server. I then backup the level.dat. Edit the level.dat, and replace the pre-existing level.dat with the new "editted" one.When I launch the server the level is exactly the same as it was previously.
If anyone could be of any help at all I would be very grateful. I am trying to establish a good knowledge of the workings of these things so that I can open my server to a small public group. I just need some guidance and teaching lol. Thanks ahead of time.
