Avicus is now compatible with 1.8 and 1.9.2 by keenanjt March 29, 2016 at 8:03 PM UTC

EDIT: We've pushed beta to the live servers. Avicus now supports 1.8 through 1.9.2 (which was released today).

Test Avicus 1.8-1.9 right now using beta.avic.us to connect.

Report game-changing bugs! Some things such as your player name not appearing correctly in the tab list is a result of poor 1.8-1.9 support and is unlikely to be fixed. The boss bar is also a bit glitchy.

Edit: We're running 1.8 with modifications to support 1.9 clients. 1.9 features are not enabled.

bleh

keenanjt March 29, 2016 at 8:03 PM UTC

Block placing appears to be a bit touchy with 1.9 clients.

We advise to use 1.8 currently, of course :P

It means, that av wont update to 1.9????

keenanjt March 29, 2016 at 8:03 PM UTC

We're looking into what is best for Avicus right now. Support for both is where we are currently heading towards. What's next is uncertain.

imryaan March 29, 2016 at 9:03 PM UTC

I understand you have to one day update but if you look at ocn rn it is just rip hopefully avicus isn't like that :/

gobernment March 29, 2016 at 9:03 PM UTC

Are you supposed to be able to go to servers other than the lobby?

NovaLikesPvP March 29, 2016 at 9:03 PM UTC

1.8 compatible with 1.9? Funky you're a fucking GOD :D!

It is pretty sad. For some reason everyone hates 1.9.
If it goes on, 1.9 will be the last one version....
People should get used to it, and that is all.

I Hope you know that if avicus updates 100% to 1.9 'll die, 1.8 compatible with 1.9 with 1.8 combat sizes would be perfect..

JDKL March 29, 2016 at 9:03 PM UTC

I'm loving the sound of this. If you can pull this off with both clients 1.8 and 1.9 clients being supported, that'd be awesome!

papagoogs March 29, 2016 at 9:03 PM UTC

Both clients would be cool and better for Avicus to be honest. 
@crimson it's hard to get used to it when some of us are so used to normal pvp

SamuelJacob9 March 29, 2016 at 9:03 PM UTC

If Avicus can update to 1.8-1.9 that will be awesome!

IMO, this PvP isnt normal, 1.9 made it more real.

Why should people get used to something that they just don't like?
Just because you are ok with 1.9 doesn't mean that the others have to be too

There was same situation with potions and enchantments. Everyone said, they would leave, they wouldnt play, blah blah blah.
Time treats...

Potions and enchantments? When was this? 3 years ago?

DaFrozenBlaze March 29, 2016 at 10:03 PM UTC

1.8 and 1.9 means the regulars will probably play 1.8, while new players play 1.9

ImRaging March 29, 2016 at 11:03 PM UTC

Neat, this will expand the play base quite a bit :D

I hope you know we get like a quarter of ocn's players or even less. If we update we will get 3 players every day, and that's when all the Americans and shit on. When it is late for Aussies we will get 1 if we're lucky

Not really, I tried playing on Avicus today for first time in a while, because OCN updated to 1.9, but Avicus pvp is still so laggy, it's painful

Iron March 30, 2016 at 4:03 AM UTC

Guys, we are not updating to 1.9 and we know we arent. We are just trying out dual support. No need to tell us things we know :PPP

But seriously, this looks really great!

papagoogs March 30, 2016 at 4:03 AM UTC

It is more realistic, which makes it bad....

We are used to Minecraft being a game where its about imagination. 

We all aren't used to it and everyone is refusing to play it.

That's why they say Minecraft is becoming more modded

flyofff March 30, 2016 at 4:03 AM UTC

Well, just an idea... Maybe there can be two servers, for 1.8 players and for 1.9 players, because there are people who like 1.9 (30% we can say) and there are people who like 1.8 (70% we can say). I don't know why we are making in 1.9, when most of people hate it. Staying on 1.8 and waiting for Mojang to fix it would be better I guess.

That's what we are trying to do, we are trying to do it like we did when we were hybrid 1.7/1.8.

That's the same as having two versions for one server.

Uhh. I'm not sure if that's fair.

Jahaj March 30, 2016 at 5:03 AM UTC

YES! Thank god for both versions being available.

Also guys I think you are missing the point of the update, we are not going to full 1.9, so don't worry, the server will just be 1.8/1.9, and have 1.8 features with support for 1.9 in case players do want to use 1.9. (Don't know why they would though.)

my friend plays 1.9. He finds it better.

felipu_feliu March 30, 2016 at 9:03 AM UTC

It's really cool that you guys are trying both versions instead of only 1.9 how I said here https://avicus.net/forums/discussions/0d3724351
thanks!!

Us regulars have learnt to bear with the pain

Funky, If PvP is not exactly as 1.8 DONT UPLOAD till it's repaired..


Please..

Umm, one side will use shield and one side will not

What new games are there on the "beta" server?

DaFrozenBlaze March 30, 2016 at 1:03 PM UTC

There will be no 1.9 features. It's just the server as it is now, just that you can join with 1.9, which means new players can join since it is the latest version.

Posighdun March 30, 2016 at 1:03 PM UTC

There are no new games, as Blaze stated it simply allows players to join in 1.9.

You're a dreamer, there ll be obvious bugs & glitches according to the pvp mechanism..
