SMP 3.1 is finally here​

After the mess of the End Expansion, we had to delay the SMP 3.1 update. BUT, it is finally here (on 28 June @ 10:30 PM GMT).

Here is the full changelog:

Added Money Boosters​

Money Boosters give a global boost on the Admin Shop sell price. There are certain limitations to these:
+ Only one can be active at a time
+ They must be redeemed in-game to start
+ They will expire after a certain amount of time if not used
+ They will only work on: `Blocks`, `Minerals`, `Farming` shops

Added Extra Homes​

Extra Homes are only available to OG++. This information is crucial in understanding how they work:

The OG++ base home limit it five. Buying extra homes adds only to the base limit.
If you buy five extra homes, your new limit is 10. Buying 10 extra after will only add to your OG++ Base Limit. Extra Homes are NOT cumulative...

After a longer-than-expected development cycle, we essentially started from scratch. I'm proud to announce we are resetting our RPG-SMP gamemode, and here is what to expect.

Hey everyone!

Get ready for an epic adventure because on Saturday, December 9, 2023, at 8:30 PM, we are launching the beta for our brand new RPG Survival Gamemode, and guess what? You're all invited to join the fun - including our Bedrock players!

What's This New Gamemode About?

• Four Custom Classes: Choose from four uniquely designed classes, each with its own set of special skills.
• Build, Upgrade, and Strengthen: Accumulate wealth, enhance your gear to levels beyond vanilla Minecraft, and grow stronger in this engaging world.

But What About PvP?

OG SMP Major Update

In the midst of the OG SMP, a terrible earthquake struck the flourishing medieval landscape. Spawn, and the surrounding area was devastated, and left in ruin, with all living life, purged. Decades later, the ruins which once lay untouched have become enveloped in lush green forestry, gradually whittling away the civilisation that once was…

A new era emerged, as civilisation once again beckoned forwards unto new dawn…

► Spawn, Market and Warzone Redesign

Due to popular demand, the original spawn has returned, faithfully updated by snowcoal and _Finny_Binny. The surrounding spawn terrain has also seen a...

Here’s What You Need To Know:
Gameplay

1. At the start of each SG game, players will be able to vote for a game scenario and map.
2. Game scenarios change how a SG game is played. For example, the “random teams” scenario automatically gives everybody a teammate, and the “only bows” scenario does exactly what you think!
3. In games, random events can also occur (15% chance). These can include anything from a supply drop, to acid rain and even meteor strikes!
4. Inspired by Minecraft Monday, upon players dying a head will spawn which you can right click to get an effect, and we have some new custom items/heals. There are also...

Hey everybody, good news! The OG SMP is now BEDROCK COMPATIBLE

Bedrock players can connect using the ip og-network.net, and ensuring the port is set to 19132.

Due to this, OG+ subscriptions have been reset (unfortunately out of our control), but you can re-subscribe with no issue, sorry for the inconvenience.

Furthermore, to celebrate hitting 3000 members in the discord, we will also be giving away 3 OG ranks (if a current donator wins, their rank will be upgraded, and if an OG+ wins we will negotiate a reward). So be sure to enter that in our discord server! https://discord.gg/UFDP3QXq5H

Just an FYI, bedrock players need to put an asterisk in front of their name when donating. For example, *TheMisterEpic.

Holiday Update + SMP Christmas Event + Cosmetic Changes

Hello all!

It's that time of year! I wanted to do something for the holidays on the network for everyone to enjoy! This update includes a holiday redesign for the hub, a present hunt event on the SMP and changes/improvements to the cosmetics system. For specific details and more information, please read below.

► Hub Redesign

To begin, we have a redesigned holiday-themed hub made by one of our builders, @snowcoal! If you have firework particles enabled in your Minecraft animation settings, you will also be able to see cool snowflake effects! A sneak peek can be seen below:


► SMP Christmas Present Hunt

Additionally, there will be a Christmas present hunt...

Challengers – Beta Release
Hey everyone, after a long wait we finally have challengers ready! A 5v5 gamemode for competitive and casual players, with a range of different classes and abilities. Right now, the gamemode is in beta as there is a range of abilities and features which need testing, but we hope to have a full release next month

The Classes
So, some of you may be asking what challengers is, so let me explain. There are 5 challengers (classes), all with their strengths, weaknesses and different abilities, each wearing different sets of armour.

1. Assassin – Wearing leather armour, the assassin may seem like the weakest class, but is far from that, having high agility and many movement-based abilities.
2. Mage – Wearing gold armour, the mage has a variety of abilities that can deal high damage. Master of multiple elements, the mage can really take...

Hello everyone! If you didn't already know, there is currently a guild PvP event going on - on the SMP!

The Event:
Heres how it works, oh and to participate you have to be part of a guild. For 1 week, each guilds kills will be tracked, and this saturday (for US players) the guild with the most kills will win! In order to get kills however, you have to kill players who are members of other guilds. You cannot just kill random guildless players, as that will not count.

Rewards:
First Place: Will receive 4 OG ranks for members of the guild (the guild leader will pick who receives the reward)
Second Place: Will receive 4 rank upgrades for members of the guild
Third Place: Will receive $75,000, split across members of the guild

Guild Plugin
Since I never really did a write up for the guild plugin, I thought I...

So, thought I'd do a proper post about the so called tree experiment for those who are still confused, or those who are just stumbling across it. Also, we have a new command now, so read on to see whats up.

How It Works:
Basically, for every view this video gets, 1 block is placed in a "tree" like structure. Nobody knows what it will look like when it's done, and what could happen. The entire process is also being livestreamed 24/7 on my channel, and of course you can join the experimental server in the hub to see the tree in person. As it stands right now, the stream will run for 1 week and then end, but the viewers will decide how long the tree will continue to grow on the server.

When in game, you can use the /tplastblock command to see where the tree is currently growing


Some...

Yes you read the title right, the long awaited OG:SMP is going to be releasing within the next few minutes! And then a few hours later, I'm going to be streaming it live on youtube! So lets talk about some of the features shall we?


Marketplace:
The marketplace is entirely run by the players, and we want to create that sense of a hustling, bustling and active community. The marketplace, which is only a couple dozen blocks from spawn contains 42 beautifully crafted stalls, which you can rent and set up chest shops in. Players will then have to continue paying daily, or lose their stall. Get to the market fast, because there is only so many stalls to go around!


Chest Shops:
In the market place, players will be able to set up chest shops where they can buy and sell items with other players! Now, players can set up chest shops...

Hello tributes, I hope you are enjoying the server so far! We've got a lot of new updates, features and highly requested maps to share with you all!

Party System and Friend System
Both the party and friend system we're highly requested features! We have custom coded a party system and friend system, allowing you to join games with friends easier, as well as friend players you meet in game! Respective commands are /friend (/f) and /party (/p). With the introduction of the friend and party system, we have also added /settings which allows you to disable friend invites, party invites and private messages!


Elo System
As I'm sure many of you know, we also recentley implemented an elo or rating system. Basically, its your own personal score or skill rating, determined by kills, deaths and wins. However, unlike your...

A few new maps have been added, and still many more to come! If you find any bugs or exploits with these maps, be sure to let me know.

Also, we can use this thread to gain interest on other new maps you guys want to see! So if you have a map in mind, be sure to leave a comment or like other people's suggestions!

Welcome to OG:SG!
We are a new minecraft server, bringing back OG gamemodes and ensuring that our server is never pay2win. Our focus is on making sure that you, the player have an enjoyable and balanced experience. We want to bring back that old style server feel, and make every gamemode skill based.

Survival Games
Our Current focus is on bringing back survival games, in what we are calling OG:SG or OG Survival Games. Inspired by MCSG, we have roughly 20 of the first and most popular maps of all time, and have updated them to ensure their playability in the modern landscape. 24 players fight it out to be crowned the sole winner in an all out, skill based free for all. Scattered around the maps are chests (tier 1 loot) and enderchests (tier 2 loot) which players can use to gear up and prepare.
Those who die are also not done with their...
