Post-minecon Minecraft 1.11 snapshot (Exploration Update)
« on: September 28, 2016, 11:11:47 AM »
As some of you might know, Mojang gave a demonstration of all the new content of Minecraft 1.11. There were some interesting additions but overall this set the tone that Minecraft 1.11 will follow. Well a new 1.11 snapshot came out today, so i decided to set up a snapshot server that everyone can connect to, to see everything that is going to be in 1.11 (yes, Mojang considered this feature-complete, so what you're seeing is pretty much what 1.11 is going to be about.)

It's not typical that we do this, host a snapshot server alongside the live version. However, I felt that I could provide something special to all of you by doing this.

You can connect to the snapshot server at game.innectis.net:25566 and make sure you are using the 16w40a snapshot. Read below for some information on how to get snapshots (this is the recommended method).

Quote from: Acquiring Snapshots
To get snapshots, open your launcher and press the “New Profile” button. Call it “snapshots” and check the box saying “Enable experimental development snapshots” and save. To switch to the normal version, you can select it in the dropdown at the bottom left corner of the launcher. Back up your world first or run the game on in a different folder (See the “new profile” dialog).

Snapshots can corrupt your world, please backup and/or run them in a different folder from your main worlds.

I like to make things. That pretty much describes the kind of person I am.

Looks like one of the most overhyped, and worst updates I've seen Mojang throw out in a long time.

I'll keep it up depending on activity on the snapshot server. If it doesn't receive a lot of people, I'll take it down.

There were two bugfix releases of the 16w39 snapshot, putting the latest at 16w39c. So now all is well again. And depending on the activity this week (I'll update it once again after the snapshot on wednesday) I'll keep the snapshot going, or remove it if hardly any activity happens.

Updated snapshot to 16w40a. Also, depending on activity (so far it hasn't been much) this might be the last time I'll keep this up, so if you haven't really tested 1.11 out, now's the time! I'm most likely going to shut this down before next snapshot unless more people go on it.

I took down the snapshot server. I hope it was nice while it lasted.
