New Mods

• At September of 2023 we added the Terralith and Structory mods to our server for a better player experience but the world generation still lacked a lot of things in terms of Structories and world was still empty. Our point with this SMP is to give player a different experience than any other SMP servers out there and one way to do that is giving players structories to explore. And to do that. We added the Yung's mods to server. List of added mods:

  • YUNG's Better Ocean Monuments
  • YUNG's Better Dungeons
  • YUNG's Better Mineshafts
  • YUNG's Better Strongholds
  • YUNG's Better Jungle Temples
  • YUNG's Bridges
  • YUNG's Extras

• Now it's possible to collect player heads with killing them thanks to Just Player heads mod.

Server Improvements

• Server max player count has increased to 60.
• A bug that caused by a mod that resulted with Endermans wihout hitboxes has fixed.
• Players will be telepoerted to spawn while they're logging in. This has added to keep hidden places safe.
• Server spawn has moved to 15k, 15k to take new world generation mods take effect.
• Simple Voice chat has cancelled and it won't gonna added to server anytime soon.

So this was it for this month. Don't forget to join our Discord Server and share your builds and discoveries with us!

Until next time! 👋

Website updates

• When I created this website at the August I still was a learner about CSS and becouse of that this website had some design flaws that keeps the users away from this site. As I mentioned on this issue on Github.

Now hopefully our site will look and run much better on all devices.

New Mods

• To make server special and add more things to explore, I've added the Structory and Structory Towers mods. When these mods combined with the Terralith world generation that our server uses, it produces pretty nice landscapes and more things to explore.
• Also I'm planning to add the Simple Voice Chat to our server to unlock the ability to talk with other players in-game! For that I have to do some testing and hopefully it'll be ready at the end of this month!

So this was it for this month. Don't forget to joing our Discord Server and share your builds and discoveries with us.

Who I am?

• I'm Batuhan Yilmaz and I'm the owner and admin of The Batuhan's Network discord server and also the developer of the website you're currently in. For more information you can check out my personal blog site.

We had this SMP server around since summer of 2022 at a tiny VPS owned by CyberGen49. Since than it went down becouse of no activity but we had all these time and effort spend on this server and since it was one of the core parts of our Discord server, I decided to take this SMP up and running again on a better hardware.

To make this happen again I spend nearly 120$ and brought the server, the VPS for port forwarding and backups and the tbnmc.xyz domain name for 2 years.

Why I build a website for an SMP server?

• This is a question that I got asked and the answer is simple. I want to take my Discord server and SMP server public for everyone. Purchasing the domain name was the first step for that and this website is the second one.

I used NextJS 13 with TailwindCSS to buid the main layout of the site and some other libraries to make things work. For example the styling of the current page comes from tailwind-typography and markdown-to-jsx.

This site will be open sourced over tbnmc-website Github repo and it'll be open to any contribution from anyone!

I'll use this place to publish monthly updates about server and photos of members at the photo gallery. But main purpose of this site will be advertaising it on the internet.

Until next time! 👋
