Restored Legacy

Documenting inactive/abandoned towns on RetroMC.

Restored Legacy (formerly Restored_Forgotten) is a project that was initiated on July 8th 2024 by 16.png Gazuzz, alongside 16.png samcraft3, to document inactive and abandoned towns from RetroMC's earlier days.
The thread for this project is located here, (Discord guild invite here), and for the list of pages made about towns under this project, see Category:Restored Legacy.

What is considered an inactive town ?

An inactive town generally follows these requirements:

  • Is large enough to be considered a real town, or have a unique characteristic that makes it worthy of being in the wiki (see Ice for example).
  • Has signs documenting the town. A town with no signs is not worth documenting! Search for the following:
    • Signs containing the name of the town.
    • Signs containing the usernames of the owner and other members.
  • Has an owner who has been inactive on the server since at least 10 months.
  • Does not already have a dedicated article (duh).

Please note that exceptions can be made. These are very broad requirements and do not cover every single case.

Finding inactive towns

On the server, you have a few methods for exploring:

  • using /wild (Recommended)
    • Once you're teleported at a random location, use the World Map
    • Enable All under the Regions button.
    • Find the nearest inactive village or town, and make sure it is inactive
    • If you think arriving at the nearest village
  • travelling from warps, nearby towns, minecart tracks, etc.
  • using StarGates
  • staff members can go brrr via flying (shhh) and /tppos x y z
  • combining any of these with the world map.

Documenting inactive towns

  1. Be in the Discord guild and link your account if you didn't do so.
  2. Once you're at a town:
  3. For documenting stuff on wiki pages, take screenshots with F2 in-game or +PrtScr on Windows, or +Shift+3 on macOS; Linux distros and other OSes may have different keybinds for doing the same. (Unless you changed the keybinds.)
  4. Fill out this form to keep track of which towns have their article written.
