in short, yes
in long , HELL yes

Wall of flesh? AWESOME! let's kill it! We need to in order to make MEGASHARKS anyway, I think. Plus it drops a gun. Or is that some other thing. whatever, lets do it.

[Circuit]

In other new, my Connors character and his goggles will still be visiting the server often because that was cool. But I also want to go in a singleplayer world with a new character and try to get all the stuff myself. Without borrowing or cheating items.

I know what you mean.  I wish I hadn't duplicated all that stuff.  It took away all of the challenge and made the game less interesting.  I hope I didn't ruin the game for you.

You guys wanna fight the wall of flesh?

I'd like to but I'm not sure that we're ready for that.  We need to build a long bridge along the surface of the underworld before we do that, because the wall will constantly chase us and force us to run away.  Also, we'll need really good weapons and armor.

I have a G3 ibook running Ubuntu and I figure I can make it run Terraria server. ... From both, I hear you can run on linux and use them to add mods into the game.
They both support Terraria 1.1.

Cool.  Version 1.1 has some new things and fixes some bugs.  I wonder if it will work in the same wrapper...

Server is up! It's mission time!

I'll be joining. Skipping class cause my dog is sick. So I could go AFK at random times to take care of my dog. She's looking pretty miserable right now.

As for the 1.1 server, I'm gonna try to get it working but I may only be able to get it working on my new mac instead of the G3. Cause the G3 is a pretty sucky machine.
So, at least that'll be an upgrade even though we won't have a dedicated server.

Sick dog? Sounds awful. My dog once got carsick on a trip. He was sitting on my lap in the back seat of the car. I don't want to go into detail, but basicly he exploded out both ends. Not pretty. I can't go on, because the computer is taken by my brother, and this piece of junk couldn't play terraria if I could even stand the lag. Might be on later though.


We're getting megasharks, right? I mean, those should be good enough. And with 4 or 5 fully equiped in GMG armor and minisharks could easily beat it I think.
If we can get Kurt, Circuit, Gan, Connors and I all on at once, I doubt there would be any trouble beating it. I mean, 4 of us together beat skeletron, and it was no contest.

Big update!

I got the server upgraded to TShock Terraria 1.1.1. Meaning not only do we get the latest features, it's now mod-able! So go to TShock's forum, find mods you like, post them here and I can put them in.

The reason I couldn't upgrade to the latest 1.2.3 was because I couldn't get the client to work on mac. So we'll have to settle with 1.1.1.

I've attached the Terraria 1.1.1 client to the end of this post.

Now, with this update comes bugs. I have figured ways to fix these bugs.
When you download the client, go to settings and do this:
 - Change the lighting to Retro. *VERY IMPORTANT* If you don't, you'll experience slowness and incredible memory usage. As well as graphical bugs.
 - Change Graphical Quality to Low.
 - Turn background off.

That's it. Then just log in as normal. Having the window at it's normal size will allow a fast and lag-less game. Expanding the window will cause the game to be slower.

Hope you guys enjoy this. I believe it also fixes the Wall of Flesh bug/glitch.

[Zoo]

What new features are there? Are they worth giving up graphics for? We'll need to start our characters all over.
And, is there a mod that would give you infinite items? I could build some pretty neat stuff in SP with that.

[Gan]

Old characters work just fine with 1.1.1. If they don't, that means Terraria is looking for them in a different folder. You just need to move your old character file to the new folder and it'll work.

As for sound... I'm gonna look into that.

Where can I find mods?

[Gan]

Somewhere in here:
http://tshock.co/xf/index.php

I'm attempted to fix bugs. If I can't, I'm gonna try getting the client to work with Wine.

[Zoo]

Actually, the problem is that the player editor is for an OLDER version of terraria.

[Gan]

We can stay at 1.0.6 until a reliable newest version comes out for mac.

I dunno if the Wall of Flesh bug is fixed in TShock 1.0.6 but hey, we'll having modding ability. So we can probably mod him back in.

[Zoo]

And my players might work?
Where do I download it?

[Gan]

1.0.6.1 download is on the first page of this thread.

I'll have to get the TShock 1.6.0.1 server running though.

[Zoo]

I can't get my character to come back on that one. Great.
