When will CraftBukkit for 1.3 be released?

With the Minecraft 1.3 release date fast approaching, a lot of people are wondering when we will be releasing a CraftBukkit Recommended Build for Minecraft 1.3. We hope this short announcement will answer those questions.

Due to the size of the impending 1.3 update, we are unable to guarantee that we'll have a compatible CraftBukkit Recommended Build out in time for the release of Minecraft 1.3. Although we started working on the update immediately after the Minecraft 1.3 preview was made available to the public, a lot of things were added, removed and changed in Minecraft from 1.2.5 and, as such, this update requires more work than usual to get things up and running. That being said, we'll continue to do our best to get an update out within a reasonable amount of time and will likely follow our usual policy of promoting the first Recommended Build the moment we get something that compiles and runs without any testing done whatsoever.

As we have done a significant amount of important work on CraftBukkit 1.2.5 builds since our last RB, we'll be promoting a new Recommended Build shortly. This is done so that people have a reliable, stable build to use until we can get a 1.3 compatible build out and so that everyone who relies on Recommended Builds are able to take advantage of all the fixes, improvements and so on we've done since the last 1.2.5 RB.

Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support; we greatly appreciate it!

 

Difficulty of reading text is a relative assumption. Its harder to read allcaps for some people. Also its common for most sited to discourage all caps and over punctuation.

 

Oh. I guess it was for being too enthusiastic about wanting the 1.3.1 compatible version of Craftbukkit. Shame on him, then.

 

If the personal attacks continue I'll start handing out another round of warnings and bans

 

My mistake as I meant to put WorldEdit which has caused issued. I wasn't meaning to be exacto-facto but more in general of the concerns of plugins and a new big build like this one.

For an exact example, we ran just fine with Multi-World through 1.7 to 1.8, however a non-console showing error was found allowing members to transfer creative world items over to survival worlds. This is just a small example of the issues faced when running 1.something with a 1.newersomething that can happen.

I didn't mean to sound like "No! Don't Do It!" . More just about trying to assist new operators to be less assuming of a plugins breakage. They can do a lot of damage if not up to par, and it's just a simple choice matter, I get that.

 

I just wish people could understand how much work goes into creating a build for CB when a new MineCraft version comes out...

Here is a basic list of stuff that has to happen to even get it working:
1. Look over ALL code changes that happened in the most recent build of MineCraft.
2. Start porting ALL those changes over to their respective files for CB (And remember this is ~2 months of work that mojang did, that people expect bukkit to do in 10 min)
3. Look for bugs, because bukkit has to do so much changes to their code, they cannot always get it correct the first time.
4. Look over more changes in code.
5. Release a Dev build to the public.

If you presented this to anyone else BUT the bukkit team, I believe that they would say that they could do it in a month maybe, I wish the community would Applaud, and Cheer on the bukkit team, but instead they are selfish and criticize every step that the bukkit team ever makes.

PS. Bukkit team if there is anything I can do to help ease the process of updating, please let me know (Even if it means buying you a pizza) :3

 

Im a fireman :3

 

we have multiple dev servers for various testing and I wasn't stating that I was worried but just trying to address some of the "new guys" concerns.

We all just killin' time as we wait for Bukkit Team to unleash their awesome CB upon us!

 

Anyone else notice there is an oddly high about of fireman comparison on this thread? Take a look back around page 15, it pops up then again at about 20.

Firemen. Discuss.

 

I've programed before! Am I now obligated to reference now how many years ive been in the industry, now many languages and which platforms I have developed on?
Well, I'm not going to, I don't publish so many details in one place anywhere, I don't feel obligated to prove anything to anyone, sometimes a statement is just a statement like that.


Also, seen creating 2 stacked buckets, filling them with water produces 3 buckets of water, 1 depops when one of them gets used.

 

Why would anyone disable them? If you want players to get interested into your server, keep the 1.3 changes.

 

just awesome guys in general !!

 

Anyone here willing to help with some simple PHP and rcon?

 

The concern is for those servers who run a survival world next to a creative world. With an enderchest, there isn't much stopping them (currently) from filling their creative world chest with diamonds and blowing out the market in their survival world for one example.

 

Some of us have a multiword system where inventories must be kept separate per world

Some of us focus heavily on economy and don't want things changed with trading

 

Hey guys, look at the original post.

 

I hope craftbukkit-1.3.1-RB comes out soon! Thx for being awesome for making servers BukkitDev team!!

 

Status update:
We've moved from banana% complete to orange% complete.

Yes, progress is being made. Yes, the team is hard at work. Yes, we do care about your servers.

 

aah ok, i use multiworld, and without a plugin to isolate inventories its just one. you can go into any world and take items into any other world. I was going to use a plugin that separates them but decided against it.
I wasnt attacking your position, i didn't understand how occupying more items in the db would affect a plugin in that way, as its all relational. id's dont change, they left holes in the numbering system to allow for expansion.

and i think most of them, if you need to reference a block you can specify the ID.

I do worry about the idea of protectblock, as you can place string all over the place and except for block selection guides you cant see it until up close. i can see sneaky-greif in that combination.

 

ya ikr that kid was so angry i mean what has the Bukkit(Dev) Team done to him? Was he fired? IDK, but ik he was angry for sure!

 

Very good point. I can't believe I didn't predict that. Are you certain Enderchests connect through worlds as well though?

 

This is why I love you guys! Keep up the great work. Can't wait for Grape%

 

do you guys physically work together or is it all just relayed via internet and communications.?

 

Woot!

Thank you Bukkit Team!

then next would be blueberry% ???

 

Thx for the update TnT!!!! i Know Your working hard on CraftBukkit 1.3.1 RB so keep up the good work!

 

NO next is lime% everyone knows that >.>

Edit: get it Banana = yellow, orange = orange, and lime = green (complete)

 

Internet is a wonderful place. I am currently on voice chat with a great deal of the Bukkit Staff, including our fantastic dev team.

 

LOL ikr he was deffinetly ONE of those! He Hacked too ( cuz he was in like 48 font size ) and MAN was he mean to the Bukkit Team! He should be respectful they're working on it now instead of 1 month AFTER the update si keep it up TnT and the Bukkit Team!!! I appreciate your work!!

 

Woah, woah, woah.... they haven't even hit Strawberry yet! You're jumping the gun!

 

TnT

How much coffee in total gets drunk in the office during an update? lol.

 

Shoutout for my dad who died in the army? he died last night in war Thx Bukkit Team for making my day better
