We’re a little under two weeks away from the July school holidays, which means OldSurvival is almost back! If you aren’t sure what we’re talking about, about a month ago we announced we’d be bringing back OldSurvival – the 1.15.2 map we first started LibraryCraft on, back in April 2020. It’s our 5th birthday this year, so we thought – after a brilliant suggestion from a couple of players – to bring back an old map.

Well, it’s back on the server and almost open to players!

Like we said in the first article, there’s no existing player claims on the map at all, rather all builds have been claimed by the mods. If you had a claim in that world years ago, it’s gone now. If you did have a base in that map, we’ll give it back to you. Just let the mods know which one it was and we’ll transfer the claim over.

For those areas that have a player we’ve not seen for a long time, we’re going to be opening these up auction style! If you’ve got a plan for a build that you want to take over, either send JohnsanGeezo a mail in game with the coordinates and your idea, or open a ticket in Discord and let us know there. If we don’t get any other applications in a couple of days, then the build is all yours. If we do, we’ll choose the best option. If you take over a build, we just ask that you take a before and after photo, and place a sign down so we know who the new owner is.

There’s also loads of unexplored areas to settle down as we’ve widened the old 5k x 5k worldborder to get some new items generating.

Remember though, this world won’t have the Nether or the End turned on, as it’s temporary, and there also won’t be /rtp either – 120Survival will remain the primary Survival world, until 121Survival comes in a few months! When that happens, OldSurvival will be closed for good.

We’re looking forward to the holidays!
