Title: MINECRAFT - if you've not migrated your OG account to MS you will lose it.
Post by: matt5cott on September 18, 2023, 22:38:00 PM: I know a few of us here played this in 2010, if you've got an old Mojang account kicking about if you don't migrate pronto you will lose the lot!

Note, password resets will use your email address, BUT to sign in on pre 2012 accounts you'll need to login with USERNAME.

I migrated mine some time ago I think but I will check again anyway! At some point I'm hoping to get the kids onto it

Edit: yes, all good.

Post by: neXus on October 03, 2023, 01:46:07 AM: I migrated mine a little while ago to play with my kids on their ipads.

The thing I am working toward is getting a local server setup so we have a persistent world we can build on.

They don't though.

I have a new NAS and I did have docker running and it was OK when I tested it but soon as the boys started building crazy stuff it kept crashing. Even despite the min server specs I think you need 16GB for a start and at least 4 cores for the CPU and better to be 8.

I am keeping my out for a mini PC of sorts second hand to run windows and docker. I have a mac mini but its like 2019. Does the plex and torent and Apple music side fine, just too old OS to run Docker.
