OR. C) Have a serverpocalypse and then a.)

I pick d) Have a serverpocalypse with the latest snapshot.
Edit: I just realised that b) is basically d).
/me points out that B.) see what happens with the current world on the latest snapshot = See what happens with no plugins or protections of any kind and a whole bunch of barely civil human bein....er...crafters.
AS OF RIGHT NOW (the login server is up now, right?) YOU MUST BE USING SNAPSHOT 12w27a
Spoiler - snapshot stuff
Nether Wart can now grow in the Overworld and The End.
alchies may now shed a single tear of joy.
also, since it's getting rid of plugin stuff, it's taking a while to delete the dynmap folder cause it's flippin huge. the server will be back soon enough, in all it's buggy vanilla goodness.
Do we download client or server?
EDIT: Tried to get server, I replaced the 1.2.5 Minecraft.jar with the new snapshot jar. When I run minecraft it says "Updating minecraft" and stops at 90%. I tried deleting the META-INF folder to, but nothing worked. Helpz?
Download only the client file and replace minecraft.jar.
Also, check the GDNVilla Library archive for goodness. ;)
Still not working. :cry:
I don't think that's supposed to happen:

eh. i'm having no probems.
ok, do the normal thing bug fixin' routine and see what happens.
start yer launcher.
click on settings and force update.
wait for it to finish.
exit the thing.
replace the minecraft.jar and ONLY the minecraft.jar
try to log in.
force update copies all the current stable (1.2.5) files back into the thing, giving you a base to start from for any mods.
go into the bin directory and replace the minecraft.jar file. you shouldn't have to fiddle with anything in a .jar file.
Speedy I can't tell you how happy that video made me. <3
either or. it should ask you if you wish to overwrite if you don't delete it. select yes.
and please give property owners the first crack at destroying their stuf.
I got it to work. Here what I did for people with the same problem:
1. Force Update and then enter minecraft. Itll load a bunch of jars. Then exit minecraft.
2. Download the "client" for the latest snapshot.
3. Drag the new jar into the bin.
4. You should now have the old, fresh jar and the new fresh jar.
5. Drag the new jar into the old jar.
6. You will now have the new jar in the old jar if you open up the old jar with winrar or 7zip.
7. The new jar will be labeled "minecraft.zip"
8. Rename it to "minecraft.jar"
9. drag it back into the bin.
10. You should now have 3 jars. Delete all of the ones except the one you just renamed.
11. The one you named "minecraft.jar" should be the only one left. rename it to "minecraft".
12. Start Minecraft!
You're creating too many steps, and doing what you're doing can lead to bugs:

Don't open up the jars at all, just replace the old with the new and it will work.
Just made my day for some reason. :)
Sooooo.... Serverpocalypse is kind of sucking. Can we have a new world yet please? xoxoxoxo
