Minecraft 1.9

[Towelie]

Minecraft 1.9 is upon us!
It will be released on 25th of February, followed by Spigot (which we need to start updating our server) on 26th.
My personal estimate is that we should be ready and updated by the 28th with some missing functionality.

Consider this as the official notification that SOME plugins (including premium shop perks) MAY be temporarily removed from Survival for an undetermined period of time (we are hoping not longer than 30 days).
I can't say which plugins will break right now but I think highly possible to not work are: Slimefun, MobCatcher and Particle Trails as well as Pets and Disguises maybe.

This is just an estimation, like I said, I cannot tell for sure which will break

This is the first time I've heard that 1.9 was coming out (lol I'm so updated) but I am guessing there aren't any major additives (new mobs, new biomes, all that jazz) but it's just fixing some bugs and things such as that? This being that if some plugins break, they will be fixable?

Rumor after rumor.. It's finally official!!

The end is pretty much a new thing, dual wielding is a thing, shields, gliders and a couple ender specific new mobs

Oh... That's next week. Hope it won't be laggy like 1.8 was, at least for me.

Any news on this for Pix? Or are there too many mods that have to update first?

pix has to wait on mods and plugins before it can update...its always been a version behind its on 1.7.10 and survival is on 1.8.8

Sweet  Thanks towelie

[Towelie]

Pix cannot and probably will not update to 1.9.
Cauldron (the thing which made it possible for modpacks to run on 1.8 and 1.9 is discontinued.

So yeah, we are unsure atm.

[TheStarNomad✯]

Sounds interesting, but honestly the more they update minecraft the laggier it gets

Cant wait to visit End City Dungeion & Warship in 1.9

SFT uses a custom end plugin, so it may take a little while for the new end stuff to be integrated into SFT's end world.

Heard it got pushed back to February 29, 2016? @Towelie
