Well, when you start a server, go to your add-on list, and make sure what you want enabled is not an empty box

no I mean like when I go to add-ons there is NOTHING there its just an empty add-ons list same with maps and I have no face decals or anything

All addons are in your My Documents file I believe.

Unless you did a clean install of Blockland and DIDN'T install over the old directory. #1 mistake: people didn't install V20 over the old directory.

all your add-ons are in your virtual store(along with screenies and other files),go to AppData>Local>VirtualStore and the old Blockland files should be there.

Copy your files to the new location!

In v20 and up, your Blockland files are now stored in My Documents\Blockland (windows) or /Users/<your username>/Documents/Blockland (macintosh)

The update installer attempts to copy over your old add-ons/screenshots/saves but if you have installed Blockland multiple times, are installing to a different location than before or have move your Blockland folder at any time, it might not work.  You will have to manually copy over your files from your old Blockland folder to the new location in your documents folder. 


Can't find old files?

If you are using Vista or Windows 7 and you previously had Blockland installed to the "Program Files" folder, windows may have moved your Blockland saves and screenshots to the "Virtual Store".  The virtual store can be found at C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore.  Note that "AppData" is a hidden folder, so you will have to show hidden files first. 

If you still can't find them you can always search for *.bls to find all Blockland saves on your computer.  In Vista/Win7, go to "My Computer" and type *.bls into the search field in the upper right.  In Windows XP press ctrl+f to open the search dialog.
