Spawn work was undertaken today


You can now switch off PVP if you do not want to fight with the community (PVP is off by default to switch it on do /pvp) PVP will automatically switch on when you enter duel arenas.

Just a quick update!

The following was done today

Hi Guys,

Just a quick one today. I have done the following to hopefully improve server performance:

JR has had Minecraft for a long time and it's needed some love. We are focused on survival and to bring you the best experience possible. If you haven't joined us before join us at: play.jrcraft.net using the java build of minecraft ❤️ 

Due to the continued success of our MVM TF2 server we have setup a second server so more players can get in on the action.


While looking at stats I can see that nearly every day the server becomes full. I have also noticed on the logs that during these times people attempt to join the servers while full.

As of this article and posting the server 2 minutes ago, the new server is nearly full already:


 

Hopefully this helps! You can see all our servers at https://servers.jrnetwork.net/ If we see more demand for TF2 we will boot up more servers.

 

 

A few updates have been happening as you may have seen recently.

I'll run through them quickly so you are aware of everything that has happened:

New look: This was supposed to be released some time this year after I had finished development, due to issues with our forum on our old theme I had no choice but to switch to the new look. This new look is still under construction so be aware things may change or be buggy during this time.


Mobile: If you noticed mobile was messing around and looked terrible this has been resolved now.


Server list: We have removed unused servers on our server list during our tidy up. This also required a reset of player stats. Next time this happens we will not have to reset player stats but unfortunately due to a bug on our servers list / app this was required.


Clans: We have changed clubs to become clans. This allows you to create a group / community within our JR community, you can create a blog / news feed / a community discussion / gallery and more. Soon there will be support for paid for clans where community members can purchase a membership to keep your clan running smoothly. Check it out here: https://jrnetwork.net/clubs/


Dev updates on website: These update logs will be posted when ever I get a chance and are public. You can find dev updates on the dev blog listed here: 


Minecraft updates: I have just enabled dynmap found here: http://quigon.jrnetwork.net:1888/ This is to showcase our communitys progress on the minecraft server. More updates will happen soon to minecraft, we have not forgotten one of our many roots.




 

There will be more information soon, including new prizes, events and more servers. We are JR, we are still standing, we will game on together.

Due to the quick change of theme, (as we were having multiple issues with the old theme been out of date and not compatiable with new code) we have had multiple bug reports submitted with our mobile site.

We have finally got complete discord integration on JR.

I haven't posted much in this blog in recent time. But now due to many changes around JR I feel we must.

Currently I have been focusing on the way we work, read here for more info.

Don't worry folks we are still here!

Apologies it's been a while, things have got busy and we haven't had much time for some changes.

 

Well there will be some change around here soon, be prepared for updates and more stuff soon. 

Any ideas? PM me, I'm listening  

Due to many issues with the ARK server software, server usage and the constant hand holding ARK requires I am sad to announce we have discontinued ARK for other future projects.

As a team we want to provide you good gaming servers that run correctly without us having to intervene and fix things all the time. We run linux servers and ARK's server does not work well with linux and it won't ever due to the way Wildcard is.

I'm sorry that we have to close ARK like this but it's not worth the amount of money we are putting in for hosting the servers.

Expect different servers to take over ARK!

I would like to thank all those who joined in for the event. It was definitely a blast. All that craziness, confusion and laughter, I'm definitely going to be looking for more of that. 

 

Now as promised I did say that the best would get rewarded, as such I'd like to announce that the winner for this event is @Drake,Spyshit06.

Played well with every single class, both offensively & defensively, was capable of pushing forward and assisting his team, while having fun with the rest of us.

 

Thanks again & Congrats.

Hey all, 

I just wanted to make a short post to update you all that although it may seem that most items have been lost in ARK, don't worry! we're currently working to resolve this. 


It seems that following from the recent Ark update, all server configurations have been wiped. However, we do have backups and will be reloading these later this evening. Until then, the server has been closed.

 

Sorry for the inconvenience which this has caused and we'll update you once this has been resolved!

We heard, we listened to all the comments about our recent ARK update, it was great to play ARK with you and I'll be on for an hour or so after this post.

We are making some major changes to our ARK servers, please understand what we have done is for the best of our servers and to bring new users in to JR.

Conan has been growing and attracting new players, which we are very happy about.

A couple of things have come up and we need to outline a few rules about the server. Just a note in relation to the server game type, we are making the server PVE. We did have PVE Conflict but we have agreed for the mean time to make it just PVE. In the future when the server grows we might have conflict days where we fight against each other as a community.

Have you played on our server yet? If not join us here: https://servers.jrnetwork.net/

 

All rules / guidelines specific to Conan will be located here and will be available soon:

https://jrnetwork.net/help/serverwiki/conan-exiles/

Please note all JR rules apply to every service we run, you can find these rules here:

https://jrnetwork.net/guidelines

Due to popular demand I have changed the following settings on ARK:

Player Levels now total 185 max 


Dino Levels now total 328 max


Taming Rate is now 3x


Difficulty has been raised slightly


Due to increased player levels engram points have been altered slightly. You may have more / less points than when you logged in last.




We are looking at 1 decoration mod only, please check this post for more information. 

 

We have not added / edited any mods with this update.

We hope you enjoy the changes.

Hi Guys,

As of this post: 

We have chatted with the community and we have been working to create a better server. (AS frosty says, tirelessly through the night) - at this moment we are chatting on discord.

A few things to note about the new servers:

Clustering - Is in beta but working, Please note if when you transfer and your survivor doesn't show right away give it 30 seconds and try and download again.


We have installed the following mods to begin with, we will add mod's through suggestions as previously, BUT we will be going through all bug reports and will be checking better to see if any conflicts exist so we do not have an issue with the map as previously.


Structures Plus


Death Recovery Mod


Taming Sedative


Backpack




We have also updated our mod pack - https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=940316400


Stacking Mod - We have left this out currently due to the fact we can not find a mod without any issues reported. If you can help find a working / better mod let us know


Classic Flyers - WE HAVE NOT INSTALLED THIS YET. Due to the following bug reports: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/895711211/133261369999910543/ If the community still wants to go ahead and install classic flyers please say below, we just don't want to cause any issues to dinos by installing the mod. Please read the bug reports to see if installing it will affect your game experience.


Levelling - Is standard currently, a few reasons to this, I do not want to copy our badly designed level structure, if we are editing levels we need to make the levelling structure better and more balanced than before. 


Dino Levels - Are standard currently due to the fact normal levelling is in place. I'm sure this will change in time


GAIA - For the next week or so this is disabled till I can properly review this. We may continue it, we may remove it. Depends what people want. It's a hefty weight to our server resources but I do not mind keeping it but we will be doing the same but adding GAIA on as well as the other mods chosen.




We want to provide the most stable experience in ARK and we really hope you understand why we have only selected certain mods to begin with. We will be adding more but at the same time we want to ensure that it doesn't cause us another issue like before.
