I just installed hMod on my server, then read that Bukkit is going to be replacing it. While I'd like to use Bukkit, it was kind of a pain to install hMod, and I don't know if I want to go through setting everything up again. Is Bukkit in any way simmilar to hMod, in the types of files it uses? For example, could I just copy over some of the .txt files that hMod uses when I install Bukkit? --- merged: Jan 13, 2011 5:13 AM --- Also, how easy is it to install Bukkit with an existing map?
i'd like to know this as well, and the basics too, i'd like to add that i'm lost as to what the current status of the hmod-bukkit transition is, and would appreciate a link or something of the basics of what i need to know as a server owner/admin.
The Bukkit mod shouldn't most definitely not deal with the map data. So you should be able to copy the folder over. hMod didn't touch the map data, so you can also use those maps with the vanilla server.
