Version 15

New website: http://www2.blockland.us/index.html
It's on a different server so it will be on www2. until the DNS changes propagate.
I've also rewritten the master server so hopefully it will be a more responsive at peak times, but then again maybe not because...

Server preview images: http://www2.blockland.us/browse.php
As your server runs it slowly renders an isometric preview of what's in your server.  It takes about 10 minutes to update.  You can recenter your server preview with /setpreviewcenter (if you are admin), but this will reset the current preview rendering.
Yes, the list needs organization.  I'm not entirely sure what kind of load this will put on the server so it may go up and down as I fiddle with it.

Changelog: http://www2.blockland.us/Change-Log.html#14to15

If something is broken: Don't freak out and post an angsty thread immediately because I will just ban you.  Just tell me what is broken so I can fix it.  


Confirmed Bugs
  • When loading bricks, water bricks have no physical zone (ie you just fall through them)
  • Weird trails / uncleared buffer in bedroom or kitchen - v15 automatically lowers your view distance if you are getting less than 20 fps.  Low view distances do not work well in interiors.  You can disable this feature in options->advanced by unchecking "Automatic Draw Distance Adjustment"
  • Z-fighting when you place a waterbrick on top of an 8x cube brick
  • Ghost bricks disappear - fixed for v16
  • Assert: fxDTSBrick::onRemove -still in renderNode! - fixed for v16
  • Visible distance affects sun flare
Non-Bugs
  • Join button on website does not work - You must run the game once to register the protocol.  The game must have permission to write to the registry.

Love the new site.

Oh, very awesome.
I thought the website was in need of a new layout.
I miss the random comment under the logo, though.

Badspot is late?! MADNESS!

How do you use the new protocol links?

Should work now. 
Thanks. I've always had a habit of typing that as soon as I open my browser.

I'm having a problem seeing my own ghost brick.

Should work now. 
Thanks Badspot. I think this update has made a lot of very nice changes =]

Set it as your homepage.

One thing - Seems to be no ghost bricks.
