MCPC+ and Mystcraft ages.

[Jeff Fisher]

Has anyone else used MCPC+ with mystcraft installed?

I installed MCPC+ and when I went to my Myscraft age everything I built in it was gone like it reverted back to when it was first crated, everychange I made in it before installing MCPC+ was reverted.

I tried installing MCPC+ again with a back up and same thing..

So I tried deleting the Ages folder and its data file in the data folder and replacing it with the ones from my backup that I knew were fine and no luck. No matter what I did having MCPC+ installed even with no other plugins would cause my mystcraft ages to reset to when they were first made somehow..

It seems to be the first load into the mystcraft age that does it because after loading into the age for the first time after installing MCPC+ and it reseting for some reason I could go back in place blocks leave the age enter again and they would be there.

Basically anything that was in the age before installing MCPC+ vanishes and the age reverts to when it was made.. Anything done in the age after installing MCPC+ will stay correctly.

Has anything Gotten MCPC+ to work with mystcraft ages?

I had this issue as well when switching over. MCPC+ stores ages in a different folder and a different structure, so it's a huge pain to copy over. If you have access to the SSH, here is a script to do it:

First copy over the level.dat's for each age with this.

x=1
while [ $x -le 999 ]
do
mv "world/data/agedata_$x.dat" "world_myst/age$x/level.dat"
  x=$(( $x + 1 ))
done

Then, copy over the age folder itself.

x=1
while [ $x -le 999 ]
do
cp "world/DIM_MYST$x" "world_myst/age$x/DIM_MYST$x"
  x=$(( $x + 1 ))
done

In each code where it says 999, replace that with the total number of Mystcraft ages you have.

After that, start your server and you should be set. Good luck!

Oh and note, MCPC+ loads ages upon startup, not when someone joins them. You may have to delete a bunch of ages so it doesn't fill up your RAM.
