EULA (I contacted Mojang yesterday)

[DamagedShadows]

Ok, so for everyone who thinks their EULA compliant... Here is an email I just received about what is and is not compliant with the terms and service agreement. Have fun

 

[FrogYT]

rip current hub/mini-games servers

 

[Removal]

eula is dumb

 

[Mumzel]

I hope they're joking...

the part, "-You may not sell so-called “unbans”, “unmutes”, or similar admin tools, for your server, regardless of who receives the money." is going to be a big issue lmfao

This has been the case for a WHILE now, approaching a year. You guys are simply enormously behind. Most big servers have already adapted.
Also, with the custom model option, cosmetic changes can be really useful to fund a server.
I mean, look at CS:GO. The game was dying, then they introduced weapon skins. They do absolutely 0 for gameplay, but they look nice (opinions vary), so people love them.
Now imagine doing this with a custom resourcepack that allows you to buy weapons and armor that look super-awesome, but do not actually change any stats.[DOUBLEPOST=1469543982][/DOUBLEPOST]

Most server owners that havent been living under a rock have doubtless already started thinking up alternatives to this.

Have an unban section in your forums and sell unbans under the table[DOUBLEPOST=1469551384][/DOUBLEPOST]

F*ck EULA, it was a complete d*ck move from Mojang. Thanks for breaking Minecraft.

 

[Ivain]

It was firstly introduced in 2014, action was enforced 2016, there hasn't been that big of an effect on servers IMO.

the main impact is that it was no longer allowed to rip off 10-y olds with their parent's creditcard, so you could no longer make hundreds with a simple server. thats why everyone is mad about it.

 

[Ivain]

it also means the market for builds and stuff has shrunk a lot, so making as much as I do becomes extremely difficult.

 

[34010]

It changed how the servers work (some of them) almost completely. For example, on a server there are keys, ranks, and supply drops,which can be activated in pvp. So if you have no gear, rip.

If they would make a way to progamically add items in-game without having players to install any mods, then it would be possible to make the similar to CS:GO system, but right now it's retarded. You have to fuck with the stupid particles, and they are not even beautiful.

Currently we're limited to making cosmetic changes with resourcepacks. If you've got clever devs, you can assign all sorts of effects to different 3D models.

So what's going to happen with Mineplex now?

I know what you mean. But you didn't understand my point.

What I meant is for example creating 10 variations of diamond sword with different textures. Right now you can sacrifice other swords, but you are loosing their functionality that way. If Mojang would make a way to have different textures (Like metadata for heads) for items, then it would be great, but now the EULA thing is just dumb.

Ehm, you do know it is possible to create a different model for every durability value, right?
You can summon items with a set durability value anywhere below their normal value. For diamond swords, I believe it's 1500 or so. So that means 1500 different diamond swords, in theory. Of course, you have to make it so the durability does not get used up for the lower parts, but still.[DOUBLEPOST=1469553281][/DOUBLEPOST]this is in 1.9 btw, which is probs why you didn't know yet because everyone apparently hates 1.9
