Ok minecart mania doesn't work, and not only does it not work but it spams the server.log and in about 30 seconds it was 2.3mb so yeah im taking mcm of and seeing how build #714 works.
So uh, we have a pretty big problem that I have no way of figuring out. Apparently some chunks just changed, or reverted or something. For instance a chunk that was part of the spawn compass just reverted to sand like it had be regenerated. Same thing happened near spawn to the side of a mountain, the chunk changed to iced over water and just cut off a section of mountain. I am going to restore the map back up I made and see if it happens again. If it does then I have no idea how it happened. I will keep you all updated.

sounds like the chunks were corrupt/missing/ and got regenerated. or they just plain regenerated.
MCEdit was complaining about chunks when i was looking at the map.
Yeah, the odd thing was that it happened to the exact same chunks when I restored the map back-up. I am going to go down to 1.4 and see if the map is changed then as well, that will give me a direction to go off of.
That happened to me a while back after a big update on my server. A bunch of random chunks regenerated, which resulted in my spawn base getting cut in half.
As far as I know the only way to fix it is to roll the server back if you have backups. You could go and delete the chunks in MCEdit so they regenerate when you boot the server back up, but it'll be random and won't fit the landscape properly.
Edit: So you're saying that when you went back to an older instance of the map, the same chunks got corrupted?

Yup, I am in the process of testing on 1.4 to see if it has anything to do with the 1.5 update or not.
Hmm it still happened with 1.4, ugh.
edit: I am pulling the map file down to try it in single player to see if its the back-up thats the problem or not. It could have resulted from a corruption while saving which would explain why the back up had it too.
Hrm, well sorry to hear that. Easiest way (heh) to get the chunks fixed in any way if it's all fucked is to landscape them via a editing program. Any chunk changes to built up area's, well...guess your doing that by hand ingame. =/
I won't know how wide spread the chunk changes were until more people get on the server when its back up but its possible that they only appeared were I was, which would mean they would only be right in and around spawn.

There's a function in MCEdit that repairs chunks, there were holes in the map until i ran it, might try that?

What would MCedit repair it to? I have only found 3 changed chunks so far, and all of them were around my position when I saved and shut down the server.

well, the holes were filled with whatever was supposed to be there. There was a hole around Englishtownland which was fixed afterwards. There were a few others aswell, they all seemed to restore properly.

Ah ok. Being that for me they arn't holes but just regenerated chunks I didn't know if MCedit would know what to revert them back to but I will give it a shot once I have the map downloaded. Our map while zipped is just about 599mbs.
This is what ended up happening with mine after a chunk corruption happened following a patch, so in terms of how wide spread the damage might be, well...

Well i think they're holes until you load the map, then it regenerates the chunks. so if you load the backup or whatever, it should have chunks missing until you do the restore.

The chunks appear to be just nearly solid rock, they don't appear to be holes at all.
Edit: For the time being I have started the server on 1.5 with the same map. If anyone sees any chunk changes that are not around spawn please tell me.
edit2: Server seems to be good, I have set off some storms and they are really cool. The server will remain up and we are officially on v1.5
The server is running 1.5_02 (it as a server only patch) and all the clients should be on 1.5_01
I cant seem to fix the map unfortunately but it looks like the incident was isolated to just 3 chunks around my location. I think what may have happened was that I stopped the server right as the autosave process started thereby doing some odd stuff to the chunks in my area.
WARNING: the chunk replacement there at spawn means there's a sizeable area with no light. I can't place torches so, um, if you respawn and it is dark: RUN.

I tried to clear out some of the was spawned by the chunks but im not sure about how the rails went so i just placed some so that you could move them around later.

Huh, so Johnsmithing texture pack is no longer working with 1.5.
EDIT: Scratch that, was using old version of HD patcher.

There's a weird bug with creepers that makes them explode after a while if their timer starts but they can't get to you, blew up half my fence as I was walking back and 10 blocks away. o_O

Oh my God why are there suddenly a million mobs right outside campion's/my house I SAW A REAL THREE CREEPER MOON AND A SPIDER WAS MAKING A PYRAMID WITH TWO ZOMBIES i dont understand

think of it this way, once day light comes you can kill the creepers and then collect all the bones and feathers.
I deleted the whole .jar file and downloaded a fresh new launcher. I keep getting "Invalid player name detected" connection errors.
I think Notch may have messed with the network code so periods in usernames are bad, but it could just be some small bug I'm worried too much about.
I will look on my end as well, see if maybe the whitelist plugin we are using isn't liking periods.
edit: also taking a look through the log file.
edit2: Duke the whitelist is allowing you through, but the log does say you are throwing the invalid player name detected error. I am going to delete your player.dat file and hopefully that will work.
i keep getting lost in spawn town T_T, the comand to say what direction i'm facing says i'm not allowed to use it, and i have no clue were anything is, in fact i just managed to escape a giant tunnel under the town thats near bedrock level and one turn in its lead straight into a lava pit.
also for some reason, about every 30minutes mine craft makes my client screen go black.
you can always lay down a piece of cobblestone and figure it out if you're underground
also, turn down your view distance a notch if you haven't already, leaving it on the full range will cause crashes after a time
i don't have any cobble lol, but i don't want to ruin anyone's work.
i did hav to upgrade a ladder to get out thou (thank goodness i found the tree farm, and yes i put saplings down to replace them.) since the ladder change to full ladder, so you can't do the every other ladder anymore.
it turned out that the ladder lead straight up to a spot right next to the pit stop.
btw it seems someone stole all the boats and mine carts, ive checked the chest labeled to hold them and they are dry.
Biomes are all completely fucked up as far as I can tell.
I know the biome tool I'm using is correct, and the colors of the trees and grass seem to all agree. Spawn is now a tiaga. My home was a jungle biome and it is now a tundra.
Forest biomes have been turned into deserts, etc.

Most of the errors around the built up area's are somewhat fixed, but the outside not so much.

Sure thing, when I was looking through the log file just now I saw you had tried to join so I thought you may ask to be added :P
Also everything is looking good from my end according to the log file.

Thankyou!
It was weird as heck.
The server is running 1.5_02 (it as a server only patch) and all the clients should be on 1.5_01

Now to figure out how to update my own client, the patcher from earlier isn't working
Delete your bin folder and then run minecraft, it will get you to the up to date version.
I tried to clear out some of the was spawned by the chunks but im not sure about how the rails went so i just placed some so that you could move them around later.
EDIT: Scratch that, was using old version of HD patcher.

Inevitably got lost, started digging diagonally up to try to escape because I was low on health and food.
Forgot the mine entrance was on a tiny island in the middle of a large body of very deep water.
Drowned.
Also there's a whole underwater mine now so somebody's gonna have fun with that I'm sure.
