A Hello From MCForge!
Posted: June 18th, 2011, 6:34 am
Hi!
I know, I know! "OMFG IT'S A MCFORGE DEVELOPER! KILL HIM! BURN HIM! HE'S A TRAITOR!" Well at least for some.
I'd like to say hello though. I have come to respect some features of fCraft, and look at some features (or the lack of them) with a taste of disgust. I'm sure you do the same with MCForge.
I'd like to say, first off, one of the BEST THINGS fCraft has going for it is it's stability: fCraft is the most Stable C# based server software in Minecraft Classic. It doesn't have memory leaks and doesn't crash all the time like MCLawl (and it's forks) do. I praise you for that. However the lack of physics, the lack of block tracking (/about) and an undo capability (which is great for antigrief) is a bit hit in the gut for fCraft and it makes a lot of users want to use MCForge/MCLawl-based softwares more.
However you also have impressive things. Your map generator and converter that you have in your GUI is BRILLIANT, and I'd kill to have it in MCForge. Like I said above you're hyper stable. Your trees are so fun to burn (sorry I imported a fCraft default... mountains map I believe... into my server and was entertained for hours) and you have some other great features.
I thought that I'd also like to state that MCForge would be willing to work with fCraft (probably when the moon, sun, stars, and planets align, you'll accept, or at least your users, as some of them HAAATE MCForge/MCLawl. </3) as we are a friendly group of people who are willing to set aside rivalries in the name of making a better software. Of course if you don't want to work with us we're fine with that too.
By the way, nice server you've got there.
