Minecraft Client Update

Minecraft has been updated to 1.1; a couple of new things have been added, such as bow enchantments, spawn eggs for creative mode, sheep now regrow wool after eating grass....a full list can be found on the dev blog.

The important part for us is that now that we cannot update until Bukkit has been updated. Otherwise, we lose access to our locking chests, our map, and our permissions system. For this reason, I have decided not to update the server to 1.1 yet.

So, what does this mean for you? It means that if you have already updated your Minecraft, (or you are wanting to, to check out the new features,) you will have to use the alternate launcher in order to play Minecraft v1.0.1, rather than 1.1.

I have linked the alternate launcher above. Simply download it, launch it, scroll down, and select "Show All" and download the file "Minecraft Final 1.0.0." This version will allow you to play on the server; simply select it near your logon details at the first screen of the launcher. If you use the regular Minecraft launcher and let it update, you can then play single player, (or multiplayer on other servers,) with the most recent version, (1.1,) but you won't be able to connect to OUR server with the latest version.
