Minecraft 1.6 - Horse Update
If you still want to login to the server when 1.6 comes out, please read below!
Roly's Minecraft runs CraftBukkit like most other servers.
This means when you update your Minecraft client straight away to 1.6, you won't be able to connect to Roly's Minecraft while we...
1) Wait for bukkit to release a stable/working version of CraftBukkit
2) On the test server we need to test out all the plugins. Make sure all the necessary plugins work, eg. Land Protection, iConomy, SignShop etc.
3) Once its all a-okay I'll upload the updated server files to the Main Server
4) This could take a unknown amount of time (a day to a week, depending if anything breaks)

Will keep you all updated in this topic about the process with Roly's Minecraft and 1.6 when it comes out.
