It is now possible to connect to ECC with 1.17 on your Minecraft client.

However, we still recommend that you use 1.16.5 when connecting to our Main & other servers, and 1.12.2 when connecting to Skyblock. This compatibility update is primarily for new players who are looking for servers on their 1.17 clients.

You are free to report any bugs that come with running 1.17 at https://ecc.eco/help. However, the issues will most likely be already known/reported and we, again, advise you to use 1.16.5 if you want to avoid such issues.

This is not a server update to 1.17! This thread/update only pertains to your ability to connect to ECC with a 1.17 client. New features (ie blocks, mechanics, etc.) that come with 1.17+ are not impacted by this update.

In 7 days from now you must have the following done!
- /bank withdraw's should be completely done (BANK WILL BE WIPED!)
- TravelBag withdraws should be completely done (TRAVELBAGS WILL BE WIPED!)

We are starting with a supporters only period (which at this point most people already are).
Please report any and all issues to https://ecc.eco/help as soon as you encounter them!
Any exploits discovered will be heavily reported! - Please forward these to @ClarinetPhoenix and myself via Forum PM!

June will be spent on:
- Quests / new content.
- Mythic achievements / advantages.
- Voting rewards.

This post is designed to give people some final insight into what is happening with the coming reset.
As we all know, Minecraft 1.16.x -> 1.17, is a total mess. This has also now become 1.16.x -> 1.7 -> 1.8 as mojang decided to split up the 1.17 update into two. Due to this split we are proceeding with an early reset.

The main question on everyone's mind is, why an early reset, and what do we do when the map changes hit in 1.18. Originally we planned to wait until 1.17 hits which was assumed to be around June-July. However with Mojang announcing they are completely delaying map changes until 1.18, and with their ETA history always being extended, I have no intentions to let the place sit around completely stale with zero advertising until god knows when in 2022. I've as such decided to get the ball rolling early.

We will be resetting now on 1.16, and once 1.17 hits, we will perform a regular upgrade, as the map changes are delayed by Mojang, as mentioned above. But now is the big question, what do we do for 1.18. The hope is that updating our 1.16 fresh map to 1.18 will be possible. (our current map is a 1.13 generation, as such it's out of the question.) However, should we be completely forced to refresh our map for 1.18, the following will happen:

- All EcoDollars would carry over 1 to 1. This reset now is the ONLY ECONOMY reset you will face. We are starting from a brand new economy, and hoping to keep it far more under control than it was throughout the past several years. This means if 1.18 forces us into a new map, we intend to make it as smooth as possible!
- All TravelBags would carry over with no conversions. You will keep every item, tool, block, etc in there.
- All mcmmo levels would...

Hello EcoCityCraft!

Today marks our official 10 year anniversary. 10 years ago today, my brother michaelwm and I decided to take our basement (literally) server online. If you are interested in some back story please give our Tebex blog post a read! (https://blog.tebex.io/featured-webstore-ecocitycraft/) We took the server online with the following advertisements on the popular minecraft forums website. (https://tinyurl.com/3mkb6k97 & https://tinyurl.com/decymh3x) Do forgive my grammar, I had pretty much no history in posting threads online, especially since English has always been my second language.

After the above threads went online, players started joining, and to our surprise sticking around on this little hobby server we had going. A very special shoutout and memory to welikeike22 who has been here from the very start, as is evident from the advertisement threads above. We always laughed that he was already at spawn when we first launched the server, and to be honest, I don’t think I remember it any differently! <3 We love you man!

With the server now online, and players joining, it all unfolded from there. Days passed, weeks passed, months passed, and… no where along the way did I ever imagine that in the distant year of 2021, Minecraft, let alone our little server would still be online. We saw dozens if not hundreds of servers come and go, year after year along the way, and yet EcoCityCraft, our little community, which varied in size continuously throughout the years, is still here. I’ve always said, for a decade now, I’ll never leave this place behind as long as just 1 person is online enjoying it. And with a decade behind us, I hope people believe it. <3

I now want to get to the most important part of this 10 year anniversary. A shout-out to what is the most important thing on EcoCityCraft. You. Our Community....
