Minecraft

Hey everyone,
Just a quick note to remind you that we have a nice Minecraft server running with Dune-based modifications, currently administrated by Gusstuff.  He's put a lot of hard work into the mods and brought some of the structures over from the old map, so be sure to head to the forums to check it out and join the community!

Cheers

DuneCraft Minecraft world back up :)

Please check the forums for updated texture pack and IP address.  We also have online dynamic mapping and permissions are in place, so you will need to request build access.  Hope to see you there. :)

Happy Holidays

Hey everyone,

Just taking a lunch break to get a post out to you guys.  As a few of you know, this year has brought a lot of changes for me, and I've had almost no time to myself for most of it.  I did have a long vacation a month ago, but aside from that I've been on the move constantly.  I do still check the forums though and it's good to see people still enjoying D2TGP.

Frontliner started up a new chat room that uses some security measures, so hopefully it won't get spammed into oblivion any time soon if I post it here:
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=dune2TGP
We'll call this the "Official Chatroom" of D2TGP for now.  There is of course also the forums and the Steam group, and you can find other resources on YouTube and Facebook.  But when you want to find a game with someone else, check out this chatroom first.

As for me, I've still got a lot of work to do, and hope to get settled into a new place early next year.  I haven't had time for any kind of a project but I hope to get more free time after that.  We'll see how it goes.

I hope you all have a great holiday season!

Cheers

Dunecraft world for download

Hi guys,
My new job is fantastic, but I don't have time for much else nowadays, and I've got some ambitious plans moving on.  So, I'll no longer be hosting the Dune 2-based Minecraft server.  The hosting company went down and I was lucky to get one last backup of my world files, and I don't have the time anyway.  So, head to forum and download the world files if you so desire.  I'd love it if someone else hosted it and spent more time on it.

Have fun guys.

Dunecraft changes

Hey everyone,

Well things have moved along... I start my new job tomorrow, and I've successfully moved the Dunecraft server to an online hoster, as well as gotten a number of mods installed (my curiosity ran right over my apprehension :) ) and set up permissions.  So, the server is now open to the public at 50.22.62.244:25568, but you still need to post in the forums if you want permissions to modify the world.  However, this will at least give anyone interested the chance to come in and look around.

Cheers

New job!

Hey everyone,

I just scored myself what looks like will be a fantastic new full-time job in Chicago, so I'm going to be pretty busy over the next month getting my old position wrapped up and settling into the new one.  This happened unexpectedly quickly so it's going to put a hold on my new projects for at least a while.  But, I think it will be a huge step up for me and has the potential to be the best job I've ever had.  :)

On a related note, I'm tired of the Minecraft server hogging my personal bandwidth and time, so I'm going to buy space on a hosted server to run it.  I'll keep the boards in the D2TGP forums updated to show the new address and keep you guys informed.  My plan is to keep up with the whitelist, but I might also use the hosted server's tools to add some mods or other neat stuff.  Stay tuned on that!

I hope everyone's having a good year so far.  See you guys on Steam, the forums, in Dunecraft, and YouTube. :)

Cheers

Dunecraft!

I'm now making my Dune 2-based Minecraft server public.  It is whitelisted however, so you'll need to go to the forums and post your username in the General Topics board so I can add you.

Cheers!
