[Standardized Signs for PvE]

I don't really think it's up to the admins to customise the server based on a faulty texture pack...

 

 I didn't think I was asking to customize the entire server and I don't consider my texture pack faulty. I was asking if a plug-in type thing was possible, like the dopplegangers or armor stands. That was

 

 

 

Otherwise players are going to have to be aware of the limitations of their resource packs, and if a sign looks like it's missing words - ESPECIALLY a staff-placed sign - switch to vanilla to read it. 

 

That's what I had been doing because I thought it was just me. It wasn't until the trick or treat signs during Halloween that I realized it was a wider spread problem. 

 

As for creating a resource pack for myself, I think that is beyond my abilities (thanks for the vote of confidence Herr) I just wanted to hear some ideas tossed around on a good way to fix this. I will keep hunting for another resource pack and switching to default to read signs for now. 

 

Thanks for reading and discussing. 

[Standardized Signs for PvE]

So I have always had a few issues with my favorite resource pack (Ovo's Rustic Redemption) but I continue to use it because, well, it's still my favorite.

 

One of the main issues is signs. I'm bringing this up now because of the Halloween event. When I went to trick-or-treat at spawn of course the signs looked weird they said, "YOUR WILL BE". Knowing my issue I switched to default to read the signs properly. 

 

This has not been the case for everyone. Last night and again this morning there have been numerous players who have lost stuff to the trick-or-treat Gods. I guess in a way, they got tricked.

 

Someone even posted about it on the subreddit this morning https://www.reddit.com/r/mcpublic/comments/3qdckj/the_darkest_reaches_of_halloween/

 

Would it be possible to have standardized signs in PvE? Someone once helped me find a standard banner mod (because they were glitched in Ovo's and all the banners were plain white). This way players could use whatever resource pack they wanted yet we could be assured that's signs were readable by all.  

 

Thank you,

[PvE general poll for future revisions]

 

Another option would be "wild" portals, what I think I suggested before this rev. It would mean portals are set up around the world, but nobody would be able to build right at them, kinda like the spawn area.

I like this idea, maybe 3 or 4 small towns could work together to build the portal area together but no one town would own the rights to it. This would add to the community experience for small groups or single players like myself. 

 

I also wish the area around spawn could be more of a buy, sell, and trade type hub. Instead of having large empty builds (although they look neat) if it was set so that anyone who wanted could set up a small shop or storefront to do their dealings with other players. I think it was Silversunset01 that made a post office last rev where players could deliver items to another players box to picked up later. Ideas like that are what I'd like to see nearest to spawn.

Thanks for this!

I'll give it a try
