    Alpha v0.3
    By T145

    Miss the old versions of Minecraft? Ever wish you could bring them back? Well now you can! Introducing Alpha, the 1.0 compatible plugin that brings the Alpha features of Minecraft into 1.0 (except Weeping Obsidian)! Many of the features included and to be included are both from Alpha and add many new fun functions to a server!


    Video courtesy of Powerpawn!

    Features:
    - Cook ores and stone over a netherrack fire!
    - Cook gold and iron ores directly into ingots, clay directly into clay bricks (not the block), cobblestone blocks into stone blocks, and sand blocks into glass w/ the flint and steel!
    - Transform lava into obsidian when cooled w/ water instead of cobblestone!
    - Smelt sand blocks directly into glass blocks w/ lava!

    Changelog:
    v0.3 - Minor bug fixes (stone can now be cooked directly by igniting cobblestone!)
    v0.2 - Minor bug fixes plus new content!
    v0.1 - Initial release

    Download:
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20985653/Alpha.jar

    Future Updates and Plans:
    - Sponge functionality restoration
    - Ignite TNT with a slip of the fist! (this feature will also be added to a completely independent and individual plugin as well!)
    - Disabling the entering of the End dimension
    - and more to come!

    Please leave any feedback about improvements, recommendations, etc.! P.S. This plugin and code are both under copyright, so I would appreciate it if no one used the code or concepts in their own plugin(s). Thank you and have a happy new year!

    It was. In case you never remembered the old method of cooking ores, you either a) cooked them over a fire or b) lit them on fire. I added them having the ability to cook through indirect means of lighting on fire myself! And if don't like the plugin, it's not like your forced to download it, like it, or express your positive opinion about it, though it's always appreciated!

    It's not the same as Alpha until you have that bug where the tools durability refreshes when dropped.

    That's a good idea! It would take some time for research and development, but what I could do is implement the classic tweak that enables tools be repaired when cooked in a furnace! How would that fare?

    Since the plugin is going for alpha type features people would be looking for close as possible features. Things should go well for those seeking this type of entertainment :)

    How is this related to world generation? You've got the WGEN tag on it.

    That's a good question, and, to say it simply, the plugin effects some world generating properties. It shifts around some ores and veins in a map if a new map is generated with the plugin installed. It's extremely fun to play around with when coupled with Mineral Veins!

    Wonderful Job! I remember the alpha days along with everyone else on my server. We will all enjoy this greatly!

    Would you like to make a video demonstration/review of the plugin? I currently do not have the time, recording software, YouTube account, etc., and am trying to find someone who may be able to do it for me. To you or anyone else who's interested, just leave a comment with a link to your YouTube video, I'll preview it and, under approval, add it to the plugin's main thread! It would be extremely helpful and appreciated!

    No worries, I'm working on that!
    1.0 has fire-spread in itself, so I didn't see the need to modify it in any way. There are all ready a bunch of other plugins that deal with fire-spread management, modification, and prevention as well.

    Isn't fire-spread severely nerfed in recent builds? I remember when a fire took in a forest, it would burn until all the trees were gone. Now, it seems far less destructive.

    Any you want! As long as the video is decent, you know? Not awfully pixel-like or laggy, you know? All the rest is up to your creativity!
    Well, you'd be correct in saying that, but the bottom line is it's not what servers and administrators want, like, or need. With griefing rampent, I don't think admins want a plugin that actually helps griefers.

    Yes you are definiately right T145, I dont want a fire spreader plugin. I just want an alpha plugin. Thanks for NOT adding that. As to the video I am still working on it. Do you know of any free desktop software? I have one but it can lag. Thanks for the plugin.

    Also plugin wise, I made a new worl but i have a 1.0.0 one that i want to be alpha. Would that work? And Does it work with multiverse? If not that would be great as a world generator too. Thanks! And sorry for keeping you busy kinda ;)

    Ya, that'll work! I haven't implemented either the End or the Nether. The Nether will eventually be updated to have no gravel (thank goodness!) and no Blazes. The End will have everything the same but with the disability that no one can enter it, unless of course an admin teleports there. And yes, I think you can say that it works with Multiverse because Mulitverse generates worlds the same way Bukkit (which is aslo the same way the default Minecraft_Server) generates worlds because it provokes a world's generation, so all of the worlds generated would be virtually the same.

    So i could install the plugin then do /mvc Alpha and have it create a alpha world along with the normal one?

    Oh no, you don't have to go that far! :p You just have to simply show what the plugin does and give a review! If you want to do a commentary, that's cool too, but you don't have to go into all the world effects info unless you really want to!

    You just generate a world w/out Alpha installed, then remove the "world" folder from the server folder, then install Alpha, then generate a new, effected "world" folder, rename either the original or effected worlds, then import both worlds! You can probably handle it from there!
