Not a big deal, just curious...but is there plans or an ETA on new models for Pokemon such as Miltank, Poliwag, and Goldeen be updated? Some are still 'Blocky' or 'Rough' models. (Or is there just something up with my mod? xD Because I won't doubt it with my luck at this sort of thing right now)

They are planned to be replaced, but it's slow going due to the amount of work that still needs to be done. For anybody reading this who knows modeling or animation or the like... help is very much appreciated!

every time i try and start up a world on pixel mon it just crashes how can i fix this
UntamedPontiacc 5 years ago
We'd need to see the crash reports to be able to help there. I'd recommend joining the Discord (link to the right) and asking for help in #general-support, people there should be able to run you through the process.

Will Furfrou grooming with say shears ever be a thing?

if I had to guess, I'd say that we will see this at some point, but for now it's very low priority. People in the Discord may know more!

Pixelmon keeps rollbacking the pokemon everytime the server shuts down, we now make frequent backups and /pokesave doesnt seem to work.
Guideranger 5 years ago
Known issue, sorry for that! For now, enable async saving in the server's "pixelmon.hocon" config file. I believe that fixes it, it's off by default.
Posted by XpanD 5 years ago
Is it possible to fix the boss towers spawning normal pokemon or do we have to wait until the next update? Is there a core that servers can use to fix this issue? If there is a release date for the new update that would be even better.
VincerPlayz 5 years ago
Yeah, that'll likely be a next update thing. Stay tuned!

Is it possible to increase the spawn rate for Ultra Beasts? We updated to 7.0.3 and have spent 12 human hours in "ultra" forest, deep ocean, and jungle with out finding any Ultra Beasts. It is becoming defeating to player motivation.
MisManaged 5 years ago
If you enable "useExternalJSONFilesSpawning" in the "pixelmon.hocon" config and restart the server, it should create a "pixelmon" folder in the server's root with files you can edit. Keep in mind however that most UBs are pretty big, and need some space to spawn -- chopping down some trees to clear some land may also improve spawn rates a good bit. (if you need any further help with this, join the Discord -- it's better set up for helping with these kinds of questions)

when will i be able to spawn pokemon a specific level??
tacoli 5 years ago
That's been in for a good while! "/pokespawn NAME level:#" should do the trick.

On pixelmon reforged on single player I can only see the pokemon on my team and the ones I own, and the ones when fishing but there isnt any other wild pokemon appear pokemon appearing and I want to know how to fix that
utopia1492 5 years ago
There's a few different potential causes for that, but we'd have to do some digging to see what exactly is up. I'd recommend joining the Discord there (link to the right), it's a better place for this kind of stuff. Ask in #general-support and people should be able to help.

Can you please add previous versions available for download as I have a server i am on and it is currently staying on 7.0.2 and if we update the server then it will wipe all data and do a fresh start.
curtis_steel 5 years ago
7.0.2 and 7.0.3 can connect to each other, they're both versioned 7.0.2 internally (as 7.0.3 was essentially a hotfix). However, you should update the server to 7.0.3 as soon as possible -- there's a horrible dupe/crash glitch that will occur if any new players join the server.
Posted by XpanD 5 years ago
It is a private server, but when i try to join the server it says error: wrong version, i believe because it uses a new version of pixelmon as a whole it wont let me connect. I cant update the server as it is done through a host and if i update the pack it will wipe world data.
Posted by curtis_steel 5 years ago
My bad, the server is actually 7.0.1, are you able to add that version to the specific version list in technic launcher?
Posted by curtis_steel 5 years ago
Our pack on Technic currently does not support that. I vaguely recall that being due to it being a LOT of work to add, but I'm not 100% sure there. For now, you can connect by installing ATLauncher and creating a new instance of 7.0.1, or by downloading the mod from https://reforged.gg/ and then manually putting it into the Technic mods folder. I'd recommend AT, it's a bit more flexible there. (and Technic will wipe mods when a pack updates)

Probably a dumb question but how do I link my discord to the server? I saw people getting bonuses for doing that and idk how to do it
DCduels 5 years ago
For giveaways, you'll want to grab PixelLink from the old Pixelmon site and run through that. That links your MC and forums account, so you'll need those. You can join active giveaways by clicking the Pixelmon emoji on them, and will be contacted over PMs (asking for your forums name) if you win.

Pixelmon server crashed and when rebooted, the pokemon were rollbacked to a couple of days ago. Items are still the same, any remedies?
Guideranger 5 years ago
From what I've seen so far, I think this is currently a bug with it not saving right unless you do a normal shutdown. Not entirely sure there, though, and the async saving option in the config may also affect things. I'd recommend joining the Discord and asking there, people there may know more.
Posted by XpanD 5 years ago
crash still happening. /unlock doesnt fix the problem the afflicted player recieves an egg waits for it to hatch and the game crashes before it can hatch. whenever the server is reset and that player logs on and only that player doesn't matter who else is on the server it crashes immediately. the only remedy is for someone else on the server go into creative mode and break the offending ranch block. it always happens no exceptions. https://pastebin.com/R0ybiesm

Huh, thought that was finally squashed. Can you put up a ticket on https://www.pixelmonmod.com/tracker.php?mode=search&p=2&term=&st=0&at=&u=&vid=0&cid=0 if none are up yet? Add as many details as possible.

So when I try to change the version of the pack to play on a friend's server, there is no option in the drop down other than 7.0.3. Any idea why this is and how to fix it?
DeanTheLeader 5 years ago
I don't think the Technic pack currently supports going back to an older version. You can drag one into MODPACKS > Modpack Options > Open > "mods", but any updates to the pack will overwrite those changes. It might be best for your friend to update their server to 7.0.3, or for you to grab ATLauncher for the time being. (as that does allow you to create instances with older versions)
Posted by XpanD 5 years ago
I have version 7.0.1 running on my small family server. In Ultra Space, we noticed Ultra Beasts were no spawning. When I /checkspawns it shows whichever Ultra Beast is designated for that biome, but it's spawn rate is set to 0.0%. How can I remedy this?
MisManaged 5 years ago
Was this Nihilego, by any chance? 7.0.3 should fix this!

I used the server download option but when i open the .jar file it gives, nothing opens, any idea why? i wanted to have a private server for me and my friends but will have to use a public server for now
BadrabbitDylan 5 years ago
The file in the Server Download archive is just a smaller version of Pixelmon designed for use on servers. You'll still want to set up a Forge environment first, as Forge is what allows Minecraft to actually load up mods. Check out this guide: https://pixelmonmod.com/wiki/index.php?title=Server_installation

On a small server I am playing on, the haunted towers have been spawning normal pokemon rather than the bosses that they were spawning before. Was this intentional in the new update or is it something else?
PixelJJ 5 years ago
Known issue! Currently being looked into. All boss spawning from spawners seems to have died with the Pokéspec update. (allows them to spawn Alolans and the like)
Posted by XpanD 5 years ago
Hey guys, am new to pixel reforge and i started playing on ultra space during 7.0.2 and the gravity was normal. By normal i mean i jump I go down, but now in 7.0.3 i jump and I feel like in the moon. How do I fix this in the config or ...... . I want to go back to normal I cant use my flying type, I just shoot up when flying on a flying type. Thanks.
Byakko1 5 years ago
That's how it's supposed to behave, 7.0.2 temporarily broke it. It's supposed to dismount or hurt you when you get too high, to encourage traveling by foot using the dimension's low gravity. I don't think there's a config option for that.
Posted by XpanD 5 years ago
ohhh, well that sucks, the land space looks awesome like that. Alright thanks very much. Hopefully the developers make it an option to remove the gravity.
Posted by Byakko1 5 years ago
No matter what I change the spawn rate/ticks to for boss/legendary spawns they still seem to be common and legendaries spawn every few mins.. If it's at 100 ticks or 1000000 ticks with a 0.1 spawn chance they still spawn very commonly (and yes I restart the server everytime I cahnge it) Nothing I can do, also it's very easy to catch legendaries/mythicals all of a sudden with ultras/dusks

Is the config valid? It'll load safe defaults and log a big error to console if something breaks. Check your "latest.log"!
Posted by XpanD 5 years ago
Not really sure if I changed something in config, but the problem randomly began happening after the server being up for about 72 hours. With an exp. all activated, any Pokemon that now earns xp (not just levels up) comes out, which essentially means every time you fight something your whole party comes out afterwards.
Choltox 5 years ago
Yup, known issue. Being looked into, though I'm not sure if the fix will make it into 7.0.2.
Posted by XpanD 5 years ago
Having a crash involving a player and the breeding/ranch block it is consistent https://pastebin.com/DXj5waGs
DvRyan 5 years ago
Known issue, should be fixed in 7.0.2. For now, try /unlock -- from what I've been told, that should temporarily fix it. It will remove all Pokémon from the ranch, though.
