>>576509953That's what happens when you eat a pocket watch.
>These stairs costRenewable sand when... Or stonecutter functionality...
Why isn't it possible?
>>576516458Something something old school recipe too iconicThey didn't even make gunpowder craftable for peaceful players with sulphur
>>576513630I'm giving Mojang slack there, Not sure what kind of solution for renewable sand they could come up with that doesn't piss off a huge part of the community of (man)children:>dropped by killing husks? noooo that breaks the muh inmersion no other mob drops blocks (except wither skeletons and guardians I guess)>created by crushing gravel with an anvil? Le noooo that would alienate the heckin comferino builders that don't like how chud redstone looks>Le villagers trade it? Nooo that would kill the soouuul player should explore as part of the process of getting renewable resources>Environment gradually changes and dries a block into becoming sand? Noooo that would take so long it doesn't le scale
one of the tie-in books for Minecraft Dungeons 2 leaked, info on the new dimension is trickling out
>>576516923Crushing gravel somehow and villager trades are both acceptable solutions.
>>576517024>the SiftWell there we go.
I wish Minecraft had a screenshot mode that lets you take vertical pictures
>>576517663Reading stuff like this always makes me smile. It's a real confidence boost when someone that bad can get published, you know
>>576517946Is there any game that has that feature? Usually a screenshot is just a rendered frame saved as an image, but what you're talking about would require a separate camera rendering a completely new frame. I've just never seen it done that way
>>576518154ehh I mean its a tie-in book written for (modern era) 10 year olds its not exactly gonna be Tolkien
>>576518510the closest I've seen is games having photo mode where you can pillarbox the screenshot
>>576518510I know GTA V has en editor mode that let's you use a free cam around your character. You can rotate that camera any way you want
>>576348982>>576349102>>576349189An attempt was made
>>576519270As in, you record in game and you can edit that recording and take screenshots from it
>>576519307It is not finished btw. I am thinking whether I should put windows of just blocks above the entrance, and I need to build the roof.
>>576517946>>576518098You mean isometric screenshot? There are mods for that.
>>576519718No not really. Though I just realized it might work if you have a monitor set up vertically, and adjusting your fullscreen mode accordingly?
Is there any seed finder that allows me to select large worlds? I don't see this option in neither mcseedmap.net nor seeds.gg
>>576519412There's a mod like that: https://modrinth.com/mod/replaymodBut it's still using your regular resolution, since all it changes is where the camera is
>>576520223That should work. You can already change the size of the window and get different screenshot sizes that way

The Sift dimension WILL get revealed at the next Minecraft Live in SeptemberTrust the plan.
>makes a bunch of retarded nonsensical changes that dont do anything about the problems theyre stated to be addressing in you are pathyour reaction?
>>576527213play creative only
>>576527213Strafe slightly to the side and keep walking?
>>576517024the fourth dimension sounds so shit holy. How did they job so bad
>>576527213made by a retarded vegan faggot so I simply don't care
>>576506259I had made a small garden in my town. For the longest time It was littered with all flower types in a random arrangement, thought it looked off. Now I've arranged it by color group, near the water stream I have the blueish hues, near the red bark tree and the orange leaf tree I have put the warm hues, and the pinkish hues were therefore last for the last part of the ParkNow it looks much better. I have come to realize it's easy to make things look good when you try to stick to 3 things, 3 colors, 3 patterns, 3 stages (for a tower or any part of a building), and because the park is already busy with heavy green and brownish textures of soil, bark, fences, pots, it's best to really only implement 1 color of flower by section, and now finally it looks good.
>>576533424
>>576533424White flowers can go well with everything, in moderate amounts of course
>>576533424>>576533582>>576533791Looks extremely comfyI should download a leaves mod
>>576517024>you guys liked the sniffer right?>then you’re gonna LOVE a whole dimension that looks like one!!!g-gee, thanks mojang…
>>576516923I've already explained how they could make renewable sand in a way I don't see anyone complaining about>Deserts should now have sandstorms that accumulate sand layers à la snow storms and snow layers in cold biomes>Sand layers can be crafted into sand>Add a sand golem that creates sand layers à la the snow golemI'd also be fine with husks and parched dropping something that could be crafted into sand IF that drop is also given some other interesting use. I don't like the idea of them dropping full sand blocks. I also like the idea of being able to crush gravel with an anvil and having running water touching a dried coral block turn it into sand. why not just add all those? then you can choose whichever way you want and sand becomes much more renewable>>576519718that used to be a base game functionality in indev, but was removed in infdev because it used to take screenshots of the whole world, and that was no longer possible. it was such a cool feature. they should really bring it back and just limit it to a handful of chunks around the player>>576526484I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SNIFFER DIMENSION!
>>576527213>datapack with rapefugeesWhat was he thinking?
>>576536670fags love them evendoe they just steamrolled by one in germany a few weeks ago lol
>>576533791I wish I had your creativity.>>576536113>a sand golemOh yeah, I remember your post. It would be a great solution.
>>576518867>>576517663>sifter>singer>creeper>sniffer>strider>ravager>warden>villager>nigger>pillager>guardianfor a sandbox game you'd think mojang would be more creative with their mob names
taking a break from digging a million holes in my hardcore 100 days forever world to try a significantly more modded world...it's so prettyyyyyyy and the ambient sounds are so cool
>>576537757Get ready for their new friendly mob: the ombie.

>>576542985oh yeah, we uglymaxxing out here
Every time I open Minecraft I have to do PhD research to update and mod it again.
>>576548041just get one of the unofficial launchers that will download and install mods for you
>>576548195Defeats the point
minecraft doesn't need more golems. There's like 3 official ones and 2 implied ones already.
ok backpack mod is a gamechanger, might have to implement that into my normal world. my original rule was gonna be no new items, just qol changes, but this is too good
Wow
What the Bejesus is that?
Why is Minecraft getting insanely complex mods all of a sudden?
>>576519307>>576519467Ok I dropped the logs. I give up; they just don't look good alone. You need to build a block vomit type house for them to look good.
Ok, give me ideas for blocks that Mojang won't add into the base game with a 99.9% guarantee. I'm going to write my own shitty mod for them, then maybe make textures in the (distant) future, as a learning exercise. Mostly stuff that would be useful for storage or building niches that would go against their usual. So far i have:>block of sticks>block of sugarcane>green/warped nether bricks>gunpowder sack>block of charcoal>"coarsed" netherrack (basically inspired by the old texture but tweaked for modern standards, with its own brick variants)>cobbled granite/andesite/diorite>cobbled sandstone>raw copper/iron/gold bricks>lapis bricks>soul sand """silt"""" (basically an excuse to add a set of classic bricks, but brown)>gravel sand (basically old gravel before 1.3 fucked it beyond repair, or a texture inspired by it)Come on, i'm drunk and half making up bullshit all the might of 4chinks should be stronger than that>inb4 faggot there's a modded generalThey don't build shit, they masturbate over tranny seethe.>>576540230>>576540504Maybe try Regions Unexplored.>>576549748I prefer this insteadhttps://modrinth.com/mod/metal-bundlesBecause otherwise i have to bother with patching away the end + adding alternatives to get Purpur and Endstone blocks, to please my perfectionist autism.

>>576532805Who's the artist of these pictures?
This caught my interest.
>>576560797>soul sand """silt"""" (basically an excuse to add a set of classic bricks, but brown)Bro your mudbricks?> ideas for blocks that Mojang won't add into the base game with a 99.9% guarantee.Bright red stone, grantie is very muted and concerete doesn't give you a stone feeling.Red sandWe have orange sand but not proper Australian red sand.Green wood, warped is more teal blue. Also just proper lapis blue wood.

>>576527213I watched this video and it's unbelievably stupid game design. I was thinking about making a video shitting all over it, but unfortuantly he doesn't push the angle of 'VANILLA SUCKS, HERES HOW I IMPROVED IT'So it it would just come across as me shitting on someones personal project which doesn't work.Very funny that he litterally made refugees
>>576560797Dirt slope
>>576579471kek, he is like a manipulative woman, keeping himself the door open to play the victim card. Switching dynamically between personalized "its what works for me" and generalized "players should". Once you had to deal with a femoid who is like that, you spot that behavior from a mile away.It is dishonest behavior that roleplays as honesty. Like when a femoid says "oh we are so honest, that's why our relationship works", it is a code word for "I can be shitty and you will have to deal with it, and its not my fault ever".And you can't argue against this, because you will be the boogeyman. You have to let people make their own experiences. And that usually happens fast, because manipulative holes like this always get more and more extreme till the victim has no other choice than to GTFO.It's like learning that the oven is hot by touching it, rather than by other people telling you that it is hot.And it will happen with that datapack as well. People will try it, they will see that a vegetarian lifestyle while taking in refugees is dumb and will abandon it... if they don't, the creator will add even more dumb stuff until they do.You can't contribute to this either, because he can always shut you down with an "i dont like it". He roleplays as if it's an OpenSource project, but isn't going to accept a community request, for the good of everyone, if it doesn't match his personal style.tl;dr: just lean back and wait
>>576584237i've just watched the announcement video and it does have that weird virtue signaling faggot vibe to it. can't criticize any of it because what are you against refugees or are you in support of factory animal farming?? actually when he announced the asylum seeker part i literally just laughed out loud, it was so ridiculous it's almost comical, and yet you can't say anything against it or somehow you gonna be spun into being the bad guy lolalso i just clicked on some video with 30k views talking about the datapack and there he was, defending himself in some wall of text of a comment not even an hour after this video made by some nobody was even uploaded.only future for this i see is either withering away into irrelevancy or a big implosion in some really funny drama, i can't waitbut to be honest it's good that he at least made something, i have to give credit that effort had been put into this thing, even if pozzed (or perhaps that's just what he wants people to think to lessen the criticism of it? hmmm)
>>576585436It's already pretty irrelevant to be honest
>>576527213Hear me out but what is up with his cadence? It's unique to this type of person. I dunno if I can put it into words but do you know what I mean, its so weird, like hes about to cry.
>>576579471>So it it would just come across as me shitting on someones personal project which doesn't work.Surely you can just make a >Here's what I disliked about some of these ideas and why.Holy shit he ends the video saying he started living again because he got attention on minecraft. Please gerg make a video
anyone familiar with running minecraft on linux? how hard is it to get working, and how well does it run? I bought me one of them Steam machines
>>576588361it runs natively without any issues whatsoever, same performance as windows too
>>576573520im on java niggyive never played bedrock, are paid mods really a thing? i guess you gotta monetize the game somehow, but damn
>>576585436>factory animal farmingThis was especially weird to me because if you're a player who optimises (the boogeyman he's railing against) you have zero incentive to make a factory farm for meat. The optimal diet in vanilla is already vegan, unless you're crafting your gold carrots with gold from zombie pigmen I guess, but no one does that. Good demonstration that he has fuck all idea what he's talking about I guess.
>>576585436>also i just clicked on some video with 30k views talking about the datapack and there he was, defending himself in some wall of text of a comment not even an hour after this video made by some nobody was even uploaded.Post the link
>>576562893edgywedgy on newgrounds
>>576589901search "the bottom dweller" on yt
>>576534096Pretty sure that's a resource pack from Vanilla Tweaks. Bushy Leaves, I think
>>576533424That's really nice. I should make some sort of garden area once 26.3 drops
>>576585436>but to be honest it's good that he at least made somethingOne of the major issues of the game is that new animals aren't allowed to drop anything on death anymore. Like we aren't even allowed to get mutton from goats.He drives that up to the extreme and makes slaughtering cows for beef useless as well. He claims that he does it to discourage overcrowded slaughterhouses. But obviously there are easy ways to do this, like by simply making them drop nothing if 5+ other cows are nearby.He is lying, his actual goal was to discourage you from killing animals completely.Him being successful is harmful, because it encourages mojang to go forward on this dumb path.The video is also professionally produced, scripted and edited. This is not some personal passion project, it is very well advertised and shilled.
>>576560797make water an actual block orloose sand: can pile up like snow, 4 make a sand block, and is dropped by husks (or make the sand golem)
>>576590113>look at comment section>Bottom Dweller: "Haha, yes, you fell for clickbait! I actually liked it! I am a master of deception!">check video>5min30sc on what's good>20 fucking minutes on what's bad>"8/10"When did Bottom Boi become such a faggot?Also I absolutely love how he calls himself a "game designer" now... because he's putting together a modpack. I guess all of us are game designers. Who knew?
>>576590898>The video is also professionally produced, scripted and edited. This is not some personal passion project, it is very well advertised and shilled.100%, he says he doesn't care about making money from the mod so it's not paywalled or anything but youtube and modrinth both pay. The "I just made this for me" is also complete bullshit when he's gone to such lengths to explain all his (nonsensical, inexplicable) choices and sell you on them
>>576590898>He is lying, his actual goal was to discourage you from killing animals completely.I only don't like killing animals if they're a bitch to refind/breed like parrots, wolfs, cats etc. Honestly make it easier to breed animals and overhaul the meat system so all animals can be killed if you want. No porkchops or beef but like 'large herbivore meat' 'medium/small herbivore meat' for rabbits and parrots 'aquatic meat' from like dolphins and turtles, so all animals can become cattle if you so wish.I just wish we could get illager and villager bones and skin to make some gnarly stuff.
>>576589085>are paid mods really a thing?You know how selling mods is against Mojang's ToS?Not on Bedrock, because there they take a cut. So yeah, you've got free and paid mods (called "add-ons").I'm not against the idea, mind you, but their Marketplace is some trash designed to steal money from you because you need to buy """coins""" and use these coins to buy add-ons, skins and such. It's very predatory.
>>576591271>so it's not paywalledActing all high and mighty because he's not doing something forbidden by Mojang. Nice.
Part of me is tempted to make a mod that actually solves the things matcha claims to be addressing but doesn't do anything about, but I like farming autism and I can't be arsed making a mod I wouldn't be playing with
>>576561772>basically a way to make items go upwards instead of downwards. You have to do mental gymnastics if you want your items to go a certain way.moving items upwards has been trivial since the addition of bubble columns, unless you are specifically talking about while in the nether >>576588497nice. should be a big improvement over my current laptop too>>576589760>unless you're crafting your gold carrots with gold from zombie pigmen I guess, but no one does thatwhy would you NOT be using the gold from a zombie pigman farm to craft golden carrots? it's the only farmable source of gold in the game
>>576590898>One of the major issues of the game is that new animals aren't allowed to drop anything on death anymorethat's completely retarded and i hope he finds God and turns away from whatever demons are currently possessing him
>>576591928I have a combined datapack where i make all changes for me to play the game how i want it.Like i have flame-arrows for crossbows that place torches where they land, a keepInventory that takes durability and removes XP on death, stackable potions, compass that shows coords and biome (i don't want to have to open F3 whatsoever), that ads drops to mobs that have none and remove quirky interactions if they are stupid (like have armadillo drop the scout on death rather than torturing it by ripping it off) etc.I published the individual things on planetminecraft but then didn't care to keep it updated with the stupid drops.If i would publish a combined datapack either on modrinth or planet minecraft, nobody is going to pay attention to this. People are far more ready to download individual parts to stich them together themselves, rather than to play your personal vision. You just waste your time and have to keep it updated, even when you yourself don't want to.
>>576562904Reminds me of an old Lego castle I used to have. It has a few secrets built in, like walls you could open and whatnot
>>576593096i've done this a few times where i would boot up a modern version, start modding and data/resource packing it up but then i always get tired and quit. so many stupid decisions that i have to revert or tweak that i always end up feeling more like a game designer and not a playerexamples of things i do: longer days, no elytra, faster minecarts, notch textures, keep inv, no f3 coords if i feel adventurous, no gay commie splash texts, etc.there is just so much garbage to keep up with on modern versions i feel like. the next "forever" world i make i think i will just stick in 1.20.2 and commit to that version forever, only adding in backports for the things i like. i hate the new versioning system and their release cycle so much, unbelievable level of slop, my autism can't handle the constant changes
>>576593096>like have armadillo drop the scout on death rather than torturing it by ripping it offBy ripping, do you mean brushing? Some animals shed scutes naturally as part of growing or repairing damage, so there's no torture involved
>>576593096>People are far more ready to download individual parts to stich them together themselves, rather than to play your personal visionThat's why I split my mod into multiple parts, and judging by the disparity in the download numbers I made the right call. It's always better to give people options
>>576594181>no gay commie splash textsYou can disable the splash entirely in the accessibility options these days
>>576517254The name was leaked ages ago when other dunegons 2 stuff was leaked, you're late.
>entire dimension of warm colors, greens, and cyanJUST GIVE ME BLUE FUCKING BLOCKS OR COLD COLORS IN GENERAL MOJANG HOLY FUCK. NOT THIS CYAN CRAP, NOT GREEN, FUCKING BLUEEEE
>>576595447Well excuuuuuuse me, fagget.
>>576595880you're telling me you don't like the new sniffer dimension!?!
>>576562904Buy it and report back if it turns you into a master builder. I'd be interested.>>576593365These old-school sets were so good.
>>576516923Sheep and elder guradians drop full blocks, but those make sense. Mob heads make sense, and they're not full blocks. Where does the husk keep that much sand? It's made of rotten flesh, not sand.Crushing with anvils would take ridiculous ammounts of iron. Remember that they take damage when they fall?Villagers already trade it, the wandering trader. You're just upset you can't trap and abuse them.Having the environment gradually change like that is extremely non-vanilla and messes with your world, like endermen but maybe worse. There's a reason they restrict this stuff to just a few natural things and they change slowly. It's also laggy. They should revamp the whole game to have a dynamic world before they do this, it wouldn't fit currently, trees don't even grow.>>576536113Snow layers don't accumulate, it creates a single layer, and it generates already like that where it snows, so it requires player intervention to actually get new snow layers. Again, Minecraft isn't dynamic enough for sand layers.
>>576588361You can install the native Minecraft launcher just fine. PrismLauncher if you're playing modded. It just werks.
What is the most utterly pointless you've seen so far?
>>576596625>Snow layers don't accumulate, it creates a single layer, and it generates already like that where it snows, so it requires player intervention to actually get new snow layers. Again, Minecraft isn't dynamic enough for sand layers.I didn't mean to say otherwise, I shouldn't have used the word accumulate. I just meant that when there is a sandstorm, a layer of sand layers will be added to blocks exactly like snow layers and snowstorms. that's just a way to add some sort of weather to deserts really. the real renewablity would come from the sand golem
>>576594181The last time I did something like this, I went out of my way to create quests to really guide the player.Took me over a month of work, I'm pretty sure. Once I was done I never played the damned thing.
>>576595880>finally get primary red and yellow blocks>still no primary blue or green ones>"here's a whole dimension of red and yellow! nothing blue or green in sight!"It's like they're fucking with us
>>576596625>Where does the husk keep that much sand?Considering that kids bring in half the sandbox when they've been out playing, is it really that weird that husks - who live in deserts - would have a few grains of sand stuck on them? It's not like they'd ever bother brushing it off or emptying their pockets>Crushing with anvils would take ridiculous ammounts of iron. Remember that they take damage when they fall?Only if they fall 2+ blocks. An anvil can fall a single block an infinite number of times without ever taking damage
>>576597294Sometimes the journey is more fun than the destination
>>576585436>i've just watched the announcement video and it does have that weird virtue signaling faggot vibe to it>it's almost comical, and yet you can't say anything against it or somehow you gonna be spun into being the bad guy lolIn RL, when faced with that dishonest manipulative femoid behavior, it's best to immediately trigger the trap by opposing them in an objective way, and when the inevitable "oh, but this means you also believe xyz and are evil!" comes, you go "that's not what i said", if she goes for a second round "you are offended about something you made up in your mind" and if she goes for a third one "you are being dishonest and this is your problem, not mine" and shut her down.It's like a one strike -> two strike -> out system.All of your statements are truthful, you didn't allow them to change subject and you addressed the root of the problem, their dishonesty. You can then go back to the actual subject at hand and continue, if you feel like it.But you have to be on equal footing for this. You are not on equal footing with an eceleb or when talking to a guy about his love interest. You can only nudge them into the right direction and then tell them when they have their first doubts.Incels will tell you to never apologize to a woman for something that wasn't wrong and to never change your mind just to please a woman. Those advises have this behavior in mind. But the best advice is to spot that psycho bullshit and to GTFO if it happens regularly. You don't want to be playing mind games constantly.It's not leftoid behavior either, it is female behavior. And it gets even worse when they take psych meds. Leftoids are just more feminine and more likely to be on psych meds.
>>576597089Yeah, but it would be weird to always have a sand layer on top of sand. Snow layers are already an oddity, but they're kind of required for the snowy look while having normal terrain. Sand layers aren't required for that. I'd rather have sand blocks regenerate based on some formula that always makes the terrain back into natural dunes if it detects it's not natural looking, so it only changes in the places where the player obviously took sand, and apply it to beaches and oceans as well, but that's too dynamic for Minecraft.>>576597928It would be a bit silly for gravel to be crushed by a one block fall. (I wonder how much it would take irl, probably way way more)
>>576594553>Some animals shed scutes naturally as part of growing or repairing damage, so there's no torture involvedAn Armadillo shell is like a bony structure within its skin. Taking it off is equal with skinning an animal alive. And we do this because mojang considered it inhuman to kill them :)btw. the cum cube is mojangs reaction on people playing ball games with curled up armadillos.
>>576598498>It would be a bit silly for gravel to be crushed by a one block fallIt's a game, so I'm not sure how relevant that is. However, I don't think Mojang would want a mechanic that's awkward for the average player. You'd have to set up chaining slime-block launchers to cycle the anvils in order to automate it, and it's not exactly convenient to do manually when you have to mine and replace the anvils. If we're ever getting renewable sand, it's likely going to be through a much simpler system
>>576595880>>576597641>blue is a boy color and boys are icky, so enjoy your purples, pinks, and cyans. sooorry. byeeeeeee!
>>576598084>And it gets even worse when they take psych meds100%, i love seeing the devil getting called out in the wild like this
>>576598613Armadillos in real life shed their scutes. This is just a fact of life, I don't know what you're arguing about
>>576599130how about flowing water touching a dead coral block will turn it into sand over time? then we just need a renewable coral block source, which is already another thing I want. it should be craftable with coral and coral fans in a pattern like TNT imo
I decided to live by a village. I went cabe exploring for like an hour came back and all the villagers and golems are gone, except 1 cleric.I'm on normal difficulty, can mobs really overpower a whole village w/ golems?
>>576599337no they don't
I hope for the new sniffer dimension they just completely ignore the deep dark portal and make the way to get there have to use the sniffer somehow
>>576599637yes. villagers are retarded and golems can only do so much. you need to light up your villages and possibly build walls to keep them safe
>>576599637yea i always either imprison them in their houses or i don't hang around that village area at night. it's really, really dumb
>>576599147>purples, pinks, and cyans
>anvils>coralAnon's Sand Golem idea is the most vanilla-friendly solution.
furry mobs should drop fur that can be crafted into a fur coat. I don't know what the use of the fur coat would be since leather armor already protects against freezing damage, but I want a fur coat. maybe you could also craft fur pelt rugs with the fur for decoration
>>576601997This.Also we need a gold chain that can be used to craft a necklace.Imagine having Bling Bling and a fur coat.
>>576599637forgot to mention, it's even worse on normal than on hard because on hard your villagers will at least be converted into zombie villagers who can then be cured back into normal villagers, but on normal they just get killed 50% of the time
>>576602196>a gold chainAdd it to the Enderman loot table. It just makes sense.
>>576507557Don't imitate others>Still no Ender King
>>576601126Yeah I had hauled back a bunch of cobblestone to make a fence. But it was too late :cI've already set up a bunch of crops so I think I'll just kidnap another villager from nearby and start anew
>>576594181Why not 1.20.1? datapacks features? i don't renember anything notheworthy on the 1.20.2 version.
>>576572594>>576591043I was half drunk when i posted this, but now i wonder how hard would i need to spread my ass to Forge's event system to implement some of these.
>>576605957yeah i meant to say 1.20.1
would you like the Sniffer more if he was able to dig up the old pre-poppy roses, blue roses from PE, console edition shrubs (unused variant of short grass), paeonia (unimplemented in 1.7.2), and had a very rare chance to find a golden dandelion
>>576608729No.
>>576597049>>576527213
>>576608729I want them to use this thing to bring back old colors that were rejected in the Alpha era. Someone posted it a bit ago.
>>576592683>why would you NOT be using the gold from a zombie pigman farm to craft golden carrots?Because you're not crafting them at all, you're buying them from farmers
>>576609992that's a fun idea too. have them have a chance to dig up dyes for those unused colors>>576610225too much clicking. just throw some carrots and gold blocks into an autocrafter setup
why have no new crops been added since the fucking beetroot? farmerbros...I'm not feeling so good
>>576595880I'm hoping that's just a certain biome in the dimension and not the entire thing It's finally the opportunity to give blue/green blocks since it's an alien planet, but they give us more fucking reds.
>>576600380They do. Searching for it online gives like 99% Minecraft results, but here's one: https://www.trvst.world/biodiversity/armadillo-facts/>Armadillos can also shed and regrow their scutes, repairing damage or accommodating their growth.
>>576599618That would mean you couldn't use dead coral blocks with water in your builds, even if it's just flowing water. Also, we don't even have renewable coral yet, and even if we get it, the coral would become a bottleneck toward getting sand. It's a neat idea, but not very practical
>>576608729Golden dandelions aside (they're too easy to craft), I'd love more flowers in general. The sniffer is horribly underused currently
>>576608729>>576616473>ynr the other sniffer flower
>>576612416Vanillafags deserve to suffer.
>>576612416I still want rice plants that grow two-blocks tall and have to be planted in water. Over half the fucking globe eat rice pretty much daily, it's a perfect excuse for Mojang to virtue signal
>>576616568No fun allowed
>>576612416>>576616674Beeroots are still good for nothing too I like how they justify various blocks that "someone in the world can build their native environment" but refuse to add something like rice, which is far more abundant than wheat is
>>576617214>rice, which is far more abundant than wheat isThis can't be right, surely?
>>576617214To be fair, all the current crops are Swedish staples, so I get why they're in the game. And before adding new ones, they probably want to rebalance or update the food/hunger system in general. I don't think they're going to add rice without also adding recipes that use it, basically. I just hate these constant bottlenecks of "we can't do X without Y, but we can't do Y until we fix Z"
>>576617540Rice is over 50%, while wheat is 35-40%. The rest is corn, potatoes, and a bunch of weird shit most people haven't heard of
Rice could make kelp useful as a good source and having a water crop would be pretty new for setting up farms for it
Can someone tell me how to play custom maps like this in multiplayer to play with friends?I tried to host this map with an aternos server and it kept spawning me outside the map and I couldn’t figure it out. I assume it has something to do with command blocks?
>>576619627>play with friendsI'm confused.
>>576597049Thisrt mods. They fit terribly on base Minecraft, you need a very inmersive and well designed experience to make that mechanic worth the tedium. Because there's a point where it just becomes Hunger 2.
>>576524594Thank you.
Can you play this game in VR?
>>576622072It's been done.
>>576622072Yeah, it has a good VR mod.
>>576622072you can do anything you want anon
>>576616674>I still want rice plants that grow two-blocks tall and have to be planted in waterhuh, i have almost the exact functionality for this for a different plant in one of my mods. maybe i should add rice, paddy fields would be kino
>>576557591looks better>>576533424man of taste
>>576560797Anything crafted from netherwart blocks>>576599637You need to foolproof the village so start by putting torches everywhere then check for holes and cliffs where villagers could and WILL jump to their death
>all this talk of ricewould be cool. it would open up so many more potential food recipes too, but they need to rework the food/hunger system first. they also need to add flax for another way to get string
>>576627238a food mod is something ive thought about. i used to really like croptopia but it seemed to be one of the many mods killed by the move to drops, along with the handful of other good current-version food/crop mods. i thought about basically doing it myself but until recently was busy with other projects. you just reminded me of the idea, maybe i should give it a go.
>>576627238Wool into string should be backwards compatible. We need a lot of qol recipe changes like re-dying colored concrete/terracotta/glass. Fix the fucking stairs conversion and do the 2 logs for sticks recipe so you don't need to get planks every time
>>576628162I feel like that would make it too easy to get string. The only reason to make a spider grinder - or even to have a regular mob grinder that allows spider spawns - is for the string. If you could just make it out of wool, you'd basically remove the purpose of the spider as a whole
>>576627238Vintage Story has a very nice cooking system. Mojank needs to take notes.>mfw sitting by my cooking pot, listening to the lid making popping sounds
>>576630268>the purpose of the spiderIs to be an annoyance.>I feel like that would make it too easy to get stringIt would. Would it be a bad thing? I don't think so.But I'd rather the wool-to-string and string-to-wool recipes involve the loom.
>>576630982>But I'd rather the wool-to-string and string-to-wool recipes involve the loom.More crafting recipes in general should use specialized crafting stations. Having everything on the crafting table is lame
>>576630268string is already extremely easy to get, especially with the new weaving potions, but I agree that just crafting wool back into string seems TOO easy. maybe you could have to work it in the loom or something, but it would somehow have to not use the GUI since that's used for banners. maybe pushing a wool block into a loom with a piston could cause string to spit out
bushes should turn into dead bushes if placed on a block that has lava directly below it
>>576615726They shed their scutes in the same way you shed your skin.Check out a Charango and think for yourself if the Armadillo survived that.
>>576630268>The only reason to make a spider grinder - or even to have a regular mob grinder that allows spider spawns - is for the string.They ought to give zombies something useful drop wise. All the other primary mobs have worthwhile drops except them.There's also people playing on peaceful stuff like string and gunpowder are rare there so it's still dumb how they didn't add a sulphur recipe for gunpowder
why can vines not be bonemealed like twisting vines and weeping vines?
>>576634485zombies drop carrots, potatoes, and iron which well not very useful in normal play, are very good drops for skyblock and such challenges, and also have the chance of being zombie villagers, which opens up the best items in the game easily
>>576634885the logic behind vines growing/spreading is super fucking weird, i looked at it once for a mod. definitely a relic of very early days. wouldnt be surprised if they get some love as part of a drop at some point
>>576635125which while*

>>576635954
Bees pollinating crops to increase their growth stage is an interesting mechanic, but the fact they only increase by one growth stage makes them completely useless. They should be able to instantly have crops go to their max growth stage. Or maybe they should only do that if they gather nectar from golden dandelions
>>576638428That's cool If you wanted a thematic world you could pair stuff like this with the copper golem lodestone teleports to make fantasy magic teleports
NEW 4TH DIMENSION MOB REVEALED"THE LANKY"
>>576635954Is that the men's bathroom?
>>576638745golden dandelions stop mobs from growing so it wouldn't make sense for them to accelerate crop growth. they could PAUSE crop growth though for a way to keep crops at certain growth stages. that would be cool
>>576641404Did we need another golem? They just added one
>>576641603Iron farmI'm considering changing it to just ingot pixel art, or a poppy one
>>576644429poppy would make it look like a gravestone which makes sense for an iron golem massacre farm
>>576641404GOLEM GET YE GONE
what will be the gimmicks of the new mobs in the sniffer dimension?
>>576631995Would make dead bushes renewable. I'm in
>>576632829Never hear of a charango before, but when looking it up it says it's made from the *back* of an armadillo - not its scutes. No, I don't think an animal survives being killed, bisected, hollowed out, and turned into an instrument. But armadillos still shed scutes in the wild
>>576635146I want to be able to snip a vine to stop it from spreading
>>576635954Honestly like the diorite as ice-covered stone
>>576636274Because they can plant any type of seed, but only harvest food crops. Picking flowers is hard, and villagers are retarded, you see
>>576638745Bees only make sense when you use villagers to farm for you, since even those small boosts will speed up overall production. Even if bees caused crops to instantly mature, you'd end up with a single fully-grown plant in a field. Most players wait until most/all plants are down growing before harvesting, at least past the very early game
sand should turn into glassy sand if placed under a lava dripstone for 5-7 ingame days. glassy sand can be mined with fortune to produce 0-2 rough sand powders. combine 9 rough sand powders to create a sand block. the wandering trader will sell glassy sand and glassy sand bricks. desert mobs have a 2% chance to drop 0-2 rough sand powders with looting 3
>>576651605you can trade with them
Speaking of glass and sandIt's a crime how there's no connecting glass yet Every other damn block connects textures, except the WINDOWS
>>576659321>Every other damn block connects texturesNo they don't.
>>576560797Those aren't very far-fetched, Mojang could add them. And there's already mods for most of these.
>>576659321There is not a single block in the entire vanilla game that has a connected texture functionality. The only thing remotely close is how pale moss will grow up the sides of blocks.
efe bumping on my

>2026>Still no Nethertomboys>Still no Nether dragon
>copper is basically everywhere>you can't make a copper beaconnuke mojang
>>576679292it would be a little too easy, don't you think? you could practically place a beacon anywhere in a trial chamber and have it be fully powered. not like iron is a problem at all if you make an iron farm, but still.
>>576679472I currently have enough emeralds to build two full beacons and I got them by trading sticks.I don't even have armor or went to the nether yet, I just build little shacks. This is retarded.Everything is retarded in this game. Allow copper for beacons.Allow amethyst, allow quartz, I don't give a shit, nothing is balanced and never will be because they cannot touch anything because muh olde farm doesn't work anymore, but they still do it sometimes because fuck you I guess like with afk fishing or when they failed to suppress iron farms.To have a single beacon you have to farm hundreds of wither skeletons anyway, by which time you probably have enough iron/gold/diamond blocks to rebuild the fucking nether fortress out of those.Who gives a shit if copper is too common.
I have 13 stacks of copper. Suggest to me what to build, fellas.

disabling bloom can instantly improve any shaderpack ten fold.
>>576683257Life sized Copper Golem for statue for our boy making it into the game.
>>576679292>tfw no tin to make bronze
>>576688063There's so many settings in a shaders pack I don't know how you're meant to customize them all.. so I often leave it on default..
>>576690434Most of them are complete nonsense to me (and i assume the vast majority of people who use shaders) but turning stuff like bloom off can make a lot of lighting a lot easier to look at. A few of the easy things you can fiddle with is real time shadows on or off, foliage waving on or off, and a lot of the sky options are pretty self explanatory. The default settings they ship with are probably what's shown in the screenshots anyway so playing with defaults is totally fine, but you should mess with a few settings and see if you like them more sometime.
I needed a break from building houses so I started on mapping out the interior of the castle. I also made this cherry tree that sits on top

>>576679292it's easier and faster to make an iron/emerald beacon anyway. iron farms are absolutely busted
I want to make a mod to not render any contiguous roof above the player for top-down perspectives. Where to begin?
what other curse enchantments would (You) add to the game?
>>576700069curses are pretty fucking pointless as it is. ones with actually interesting gameplay implications could be cool. maybe one that prevents the thing its on being repaired, by both anvil and mending, but it could come on loot with stronger-than-normal enchants?like you get an efficiency vii diamond pick in a chest but it also comes with a curse so you cant repair it, so when its gone, its gone
What was happening on Feb 28 2023 that MC was getting 1.5M twitch viewers for a week?
Or Jan 2022 for that matter.
>>576698576Write your own camera renderer, and then add logic for selecting what gets rendered?
>>576700069Curse of Greed. It would add one level to each enchantment per curse (excluding itself). So if you got all three curses on a chestplate, you'd be able to have Protection VI
>>576700069Curse of Stickiness, like binding but for tools. Can't drop it from your inventory or put it in a chest, would only show up on the tool after you take it out of the loot chest you found it in.Curse of Fragility, the tool or armor takes more durability damage. If you allow for tiered curses maybe make it an inverse of unbreaking with 3 levels, an increasing chance of using 2 durability each time it would lose durability.On that note, maybe some curses that are inverses of enchantments could be interesting. Maybe you'd find a chestplate with Prot 5, but it has Anti-Thorns 2 or something so every time you get hit the enemy that hit you heals a little. Or a sword with sharpness 6 but anti-bane of arthropods, so you deal more damage to mostly everything, but you deal a lot less damage to spiders and silverfish. Stuff like that.
>>576701051I think the only way curses could be made interesting is if they allowed items to roll higher-than-normal-level enchantments. Anything else and they'd be a minor annoyance at best, completely ignored at worst
>>576701338it could be kinda cool, but if it made "god gear" or the objective best gear something you have to get absurdly lucky to get, i don't think i'd like it. if it was something you could make yourself, like throwing curses on something to max out certain enchants, it could be interesting. maybe.with how easy it is to get max enchanted gear there's really no reason to use things with curses on them. like you'd pretty much never put on anything with curse of binding on it even if it had all the enchants you want, especially now with armor trims and stuff, or if they add more enchants. I've used curse of vanishing tools from end cities for a little while until i either died with them or got proper tools, but that's about it really. Also, pretty much the only place you'd get usable gear with curses on it is end cities. Ancient cities have pants and hoes that can have curses i guess but those hardly really count. Nowhere else in the game are you going to get usable items with curses.
>>576688063Whoever invented bloom and motion blur should be shot.
>>576700069Midas Touch. Would be funny as shit and I think some people would actually seek it out.
>>576703843Anything you attack or mine turns to gold?
>>576704109Yup.Not everything you walk on because that would be too much, but if you "touch" anything with your hand or a tool, it turns to gold. It should work on mobs, too.Think of the possibilities.>Timmy just equipped his new "Midas Touch" boots>wants to go back to base>tries to hop on his horse>it turns to goldWe'd need a new potion to heal mobs, of course.
>>576701705Now that I think about it, wouldn't that be a pretty vanilla-friendly way of overhauling the enchanting table? You get to pick whatever you want, but the more you pick the higher the likelihood of getting a curse. So instead of getting efficiency, unbreaking, and fortune for your pickaxe, you'd settle for just efficiency and fortune, and then apply unbreaking and mending from villagers for the finished product. That'd keep both systems relevant, while also reducing a lot of the RNG - unless you specifically feel like gambling
>>576704421It would be pretty funny, for a while, but it would also be an insanely powerful way of farming gold. Imagine going mining, but all the stone you mine becomes gold. You'd fill up a few shulkers in no time
>>576704658I know, although it's not like gold is a really sought-after metal.But if that's a problem we could just make the curse very rare.

>>576717078also does biomes o plenty affect actual terrain gen? I'm playing on my same vanilla seed and some stuff is familiar, like caves and some village locations, but then there's like a random hill where it doesn't belong or rivers that don't match the vanilla world so idk. could be another mod messing it up too, there's a big ass graveyard where one of my villages should have been and the generation flattened some other stuff out.also has anyone used the graveyards mod? whenever I try to interact with this hanging tree guy my game crashes. >>576717257it took me a moment but I now feel bad for him. he has nowhere to go, it's raining. long as he doesn't try to steal my shit he'll be fine.
>>576717635They don't steal modded blocks.
>>576717635From my experience it does, in subtle ways.
>>576723268They do if the mod or modpack devs want them to, or if the blocks are in a block tag endermen can pick up, like types or dirt or flowers.

>>576733339Good. Now add a woodcutter
what the FUCK is thatit also reminded me, any recommendations for a good horror-y mod for 26.2? Something like the goatman, but I don't think he's available on this patch. normal mobs are kinda boring, wouldn't mind something a little stronger to be a threat. doesn't have to be horror either, it just comes to mind since it's a big thing rn.
>>576739184That's clearly Santa Claus. Not cool that you'd light him on fire, bro
>>576723268Minecraft has a tag for it, you can make Endermen grab any block that's registered under that tag and that's just a simple text file edit away. You can even add a tag itself into this list so you can make them pick all #minecraft:dirt_clones or whatever

>>576756814Minecraft doesn't come with Java, but I think the launcher does. You can get Java from here, it's JDK 25 LTS that you want: https://adoptium.net/

>>576701338I think as well as adding more interesting curses, they should make all these changes>Librarian villagers default enchanted book trades ALL come with at least one curse>Grindstones should be changed to randomly remove one enchantment at a time instead of all of them, still excluded curses>Anvil limit should be removed when combining enchantments, so it can get as high as you want>Repairing items should incur no anvil cost>Add a way to influence what enchantments you will get from the enchanting table by paying certain materials in a new slot, ie blaze powder for fire enchantments (flame, fire protection, fire aspect, etc.)>Paying enough of the required material will guarantee that enchantment, assuming you are using the correct tool, or will roll one of the related enchantments if enchanting a book>Placing an enchanted book in a lectern attached to a librarian villager will make his next unlocked book trade be an exact copy of that book, multiple enchantments included for a higher costthat way you can still build the ultimate villager trading hall if you want, but it's more interesting than just spamming lecterns, as you'll have to slowly aquire the books you want through other means and then fiddle with them to get the exact enchantments you want. OR, you could just completely forgo villager trading and still get max gear by just paying the required enchantment table costs

>>576782093sniffer dimension looking better and better!
>>576785572this but unironically
>>576786115who could be behind this post…
>>576783221I wish they'd go update older systems in MC too not just the code. Stuff like enchanting is still so barebones. It's not like it's new content you can just ignore, it's part of the core game. That's why getting concrete stairs was a big deal, it's adapting onto an existing thing instead of layering more isolated filler updates
>>576788096I think at least part of the reason they haven't updated some of the older systems, they want to get the codebase to a better state which is why they're doing this major refactor of the code. I don't doubt though that they have some things in the works as far as enchanting and whatnot. It'll just take time to get there. Part of the reason why I also do overall like the drop system as flawed as it is. Sometimes it is just the sort of filler stuff but sometimes it's something more substantial, like the spear weapon which added some new dynamics to combat

>>576782093You are retarded if you think this is for anything but the spin off game. One of the games has a whole overhauled end dimension that they still haven't ported to the real game and you think they're adding this shit?
A month after the last disappointment and we're already back to >NEW DIMENSION SOON!
Why are people pretending mojang is so based and godly for adding a new hue of wood and adding some stairs and slabs? This shit can not take such resources that it's considered an entire update. Like, it's a few new textures and block ids. Do they even make a new texture for the stairs or just wrap the texture around the shape in a particular way. In either case, how does this entire update take more than a week?
>>576792030for modders it'd take like a week to add a new shade of wood and stairs/slabs for blocks with existing textures. but mojang isn't just doing that, they're also taking several week long vacations. oh, and when they're in the office they're also fixing bugs that don't affect regular players at all but fixing them does break cool redstone contraptions and farms. and when they aren't doing that, they're refactoring the code to make it as annoying for modders to update their mods as possible.
Nether update wa the best in a very long time and they said "yeah we don't want to ever do something like that again because it stwessed us out :(" So now we're stuck with blockslop for creative mode players.
>>576792429caves and cliffs had a pretty ok chance at matching the nether update, and overall i like most of the changes from it. but there were 4 caves and cliffs updates.
>>576792030Content creators who don't bootlick mojang immediately get cancelled by white knights. Hell anyone saying something negative like that will get piled on. Then they'll use the excuse they're sorting out code/data/optimizing ect but like it's the biggest game in the world, they have the money to afford more than an indie studio to do that while they work on content. It's also partly because microsoft is definitely drip feeding content instead of doing big updates to keep the longevity of minecraft despite that only existing because modders..
>>576792030There's no separate texture for stairs, it uses the texture of the base block. They just have to add "pink concrete" or whatever to a few lists and hit recompile and then boom you've got pink concrete stairs. Probably a 3 minute job for someone who knows where everything is.
>>576792862>they have the money to afford more than an indie studio to do that while they work on content.Ok ok, I know the current mojang devs arent the greatest and all, but I'd rather they dripfeed dubious content AND be the ones in charge of code refactoring than let microslop outsource the extremely important job of making maintainable and readable code for minecraft to some studio filled with nothing but indians, which is exactly what they would do.
Genuinely pisses me off how overhyped that cushion was. People unironically saying "this will change minecraft forever." How fucking gullible can people be?
>>576792181>a week*hour
>>576792030It's disingenuous to imply the only things they've done this update is new wood and stairs/slabs. They added >new biome, with a new tree shape>shelf mushrooms>cushions>straw beds>the new explorer maps>abandoned camp structure and all of its variations per biomethey've fixed a shitton of bugs including one of the oldest bugs in the game. added a bunch of new functionalities to datapacks, they made post effect shaders more useableimplemented a new and improved system for transparency with the help of community membersthe main thing a lot of people are excited for is the cushions and the new concrete stairs and slabs lel not even the autumn biome, but to be fair they barely did anything to it after adding it.>>576792181>they're refactoring the code to make it as annoying for modders to update their mods as possible.would you rather the game continue to run like shit for eternity or get farmed out to some contract workers? they're spending the time now to refactor the codebase and add multithreading to improve performance by giving rendering its own thread. Plus last year they de-obfuscated the code which in the long run will help modders.>>576792429>>576792596Caves & Cliffs and Nether Update were great, but several of the recent drops have also been great like the Happy Ghast, the Copper Age, and the Mounts of Mayhem one with the spear and new camel jockey enemy
>>576793134>would you rather the game continue to run like shit for eternityLol performance gets worse every fucking update and always has. They literally just had to bump the recommended system ram to 16GB it's gotten so bad. When I first upgraded to 16GB ram it was only so I could run the biggest, most bloated 1.12 modpacks and now you need it to run fucking vanilla.
>576793134Zero chance he doesn't get paid for this, if he doesn't that's incredibly sad to try to be a hype man for a company that is obviously trying to find the minimum possible input they can get away with. Every single thing you listed could be accomplished in the same week as the stairs by a team that was passionate about crafting the game.
>>576793063They wouldn't outsource it but they can surely hire more workers for mojang. They made such a big deal about how they went out and recorded animal voices for the new baby mobs. Like ok but what about the game why did the entire team need to visit the farm
>several of the recent drops have also been great like the...camel jockey
>>576793513The funny thing about that actually is recently the meta for modding has been to reduce your allocated ram. I'm running a hyper modded 1.21.1 instance with 8gb of ram, and it would shit itself if i gave it much more than that because java is hilarious with the way it handles garbage collection.
All the money goes into minecraft live and the company cry therapy sessions I guess.
>>576793513>Lol performance gets worse every fucking update and always hasSo you haven't played in like 4-5 years I take it? Performance has been steadily improving over the last several years, they literally made one of the community performance mods obsolete a while ago and have been making steady progress since then. They're in the middle of refactoring the code to separate rendering to its own thread to further improve performance.>They literally just had to bump the recommended system ram to 16GB it's gotten so badGod you're retarded. They did that because they're working on switching from the all-but deprecated OpenGL to Vulkan 1.3 and planning on adding Vibrant Visuals to Java in the next year or two once the refactor and multithread support is complete. Abandon your windows xp shitbox already
you walk into the mojang office and it's just that scene from midsommer where all the women are crying and screaming together
Oh, this is not even funny anymore. I put this seed in as a joke, but it turns out it's exactly what I was looking for:>spawn on a small island in an ocean with the continent nearby
>>576798446and there's a mooshroom island in that ocean, this seed looks awesome. if there was a nice mountain range off in the distance too it would be perfect.
>>576798609I've given up on vanilla MC mountain ranges, personally. I really like the fact that the starting island has a sort of volcano in the middle. It's really cute.
>>576798609Mushroom islands are common when you look at a seedmap, it's just that the world gen is designed with the render diatance in mind so in-game it's a different sense of scale.

>>576793110I think they're just retarded.
>>576793110this happens with every single update. the cushion will be good but just saying it will be good doesn't get the minecoins deposited into your account so youtubers over embellish it a lot.
>>576793110the cushion is fine, im not anti-cushion. i welcome finally having a way to easily sit. the hype was just very overblown. its not going to revolutionise the game. the fast transport stuff was really scraping the barrel for extra uses for it. weve been able to do that with minecarts or boats since forever

Seems like wasted trade slots>Grindstones should be changed to randomly remove one enchantment at a time instead of all of them, still excluded cursesWhy? It would make sense if they could also remove curses, since then you'd be able to gamble, but I don't see the point otherwise>Anvil limit should be removed when combining enchantments>Repairing items should incur no anvil costThe entire "prior work penalty" should be ripped out of the game, taken out back, and executed for crimes against common sense>Add a way to influence what enchantments you will get from the enchanting table by paying certain materials in a new slot>Paying enough of the required material will guarantee that enchantmentAnything to reduce the RNG, honestly, and that's a pretty vanilla-friendly approach>Placing an enchanted book in a lectern attached to a librarian villager will make his next unlocked book trade be an exact copy of that bookI'm for this, and they should also add a way of retrieving enchantments from gear somehow. Maybe by destroying the item in the process. That'd make even low-level loot more interesting, since even if the item is garbage, it might have an enchantment you want
>>576782093Everything I've heard of that new dimension feels very un-Minecraft-y. It might work great in a spin-off, but it doesn't fit the core game. I'm increasingly hoping this is wrong/exaugurated/not coming to vanilla
>>576804493shut up gnostard
>>576815216>Placing an enchanted book in a lectern attached to a librarian villager will make his next unlocked book trade be an exact copy of that booki like this, but it should also be combined with >Add a way to influence what enchantments you will get from the enchanting table by paying certain materials in a new slot>Paying enough of the required material will guarantee that enchantmentto make tables useful. make it so that if the bookshelves around a table are chiseled, the enchantments you can roll are drawn from the books in those bookshelves (ie. if you put a mending book in, you roll more mending)
>>576791413>One of the games has a whole overhauled end dimension that they still haven't ported to the real gameThe difference is that the end dimension exists in vanilla while this new dimension does not. Spin-off exclusive biomes and structures exist because it’s literally a different game with its own creative direction and design challenges, but at the end of the day it’s all based on vanilla

>>576815216good feedback. I'd say librarians should have their first enchanted book be moved to apprentice level, so it wouldn't start unlocked, and you're right about the grindstones. let it remove curses too, but still remove enchantments one at a time. the only reason I didn't say to remove the anvil cost completely is because I think things should get more expensive the more enchants you add to them. I also like the idea of being able to extract enchants from items back onto books, but I don't know what block could be given that functionality. I guess a new block would have to be added for that, and I think it should just take one enchantment randomly and destroy the item, so you wouldn't be guaranteed to get what you want>>576819248get shulker boxes full of tropical fish and get breeding

>>576821290>is it just another case of putting your mental illness on display?You know it baby.
>>576820169>I'd say librarians should have their first enchanted book be moved to apprentice levelMaybe instead of books, they should unlock book slots. So when you put down an enchanted book on their lectern, they'd use one of those slots to copy the book. Maybe there's like a 50/50 chance for a librarian to roll a slot vs. a pre-made book>the only reason I didn't say to remove the anvil cost completely is because I think things should get more expensive the more enchants you add to themThat could easily be done by simply looking at the current item, and increasing the cost per attached enchantment. I agree that's probably how it should be done, but it's perfectly doable without the current system>I also like the idea of being able to extract enchants from items back onto books, but I don't know what block could be given that functionalityEnchanted Bookshelf.

>>576821290existential dread is le funnylonger answer:these people tend to fear and/or hate the idea of permanence. postmodernism is mostly about the idea that there is no objective reality, and things can be changed/manipulated. career criminals can be rehabilitated into normal people. niggers can be doctors and scientists. literal shit on a canvas can be art. men can be women. etc etc. Death is the most permanent thing we know. you cannot change it, you cannot escape it, no matter how many fancy words you use. and yes, it terrifies postmodernists. most tend to handle this with ironic humor or reddit nihilism or whatever (we're le heckin apes on le heckin rock in space, nothing ever matters!!1!!), but it's rooted in a deep, paralyzing fear of finality.>>576801887>reading is hot!i hate this "all books are precious!" sentiment, because the same people would lose their shit over you reading evola or the bible or some shit. hypocrisy, another staple of postmodern brainrot.

Never thought I'd achieve such a pleasing façade. It's a pretty dignified building now for a humble hide-an-iron-farm construction. I have no idea how to make nice acroterion sculptures at such a small scale, maybe I'll just put some copper golems to crown this pediment.

the thing that fascinates me the most about the matcha pack is that the whole opening section of the video is framed as>minecraft "punishes" casuals because you NEED to be able to build mega bases, but the only practical way to do that is with farms, theres no other way to get lots of resources with grindingwhich, while framed poorly, i can see the logic behind (personally, id just say dont build megabases if you dont want to make farms, but i can see the argument that someone who likes big builds and survival gameplay but doesnt like farms would want to tweak the game to better support their preferred playstyle)but then the pack does absolutely fuck all to make bulk resources more accessible without farming. its more of a progression rework
>>576836674I just use creative to skip minecraft's progression retardation, it's not that hard. not dragging villagers thousands of blocks in a ghast just to grind mending. who am I to argue if a stack of spawn eggs falls from the sky when I need villagers? don't need a gay ass data pack for that.
we need more elemental effects. all we've got right now is fire and I guess wind. give me my frost protection and an enchantment to freeze enemies
>>576830682>longer answerI think you're making a good point, but at the same time it might be as simple as most of these people are mentally ill and don't deal well with adversity or anxiety as a result
>>576840128postmodernism is a fundamental denial/rejection of reality and thus itself is a mental illness. so you're right. would this particular individual still be severely mentally ill if he lived in an alternate reality on a rural farm with no internet access? probably not.
>>576836062Pretty nice, but I feel like the birch and dark prismarine kind of clash. Too many colors, basically. I'd also suggest changing out the campfires for something else. You could hide netherrack behind dark oak trapdoors or something. Might be closer in color to the anvils, or it might look significantly worse
>>576840334Thinking nothing matters doesn't mean you deny reality, if that's what you're trying to say. And I don't see how any of this is relevant to being afraid of death.
>>576844160nihilism is a symptom of post modernism, which itself is a denial of reality. starting to think you didn't read the post.postmodernists fear permanence. death is capital P Permanence. it is the ultimate enemy.
the one thing I liked about matcha is zombies being fast. zombies are only the speed they are currently because they were implemented before sprint was in the game. so really it makes sense that their speed should be updated to be faster than your walk speed but slower than your sprint. mobs should all have way larger view distance too since the only reason their view is so short is because people used to play on like 4 render distance but now everyone plays with like 32 distance or something like voxy. its why nights feel so easy now.
>>576844579I think the issue with zombies is that their whole schtick is overwhelming you with numbers, being able to spawn reinforcements, but they just all follow the same path walking at you so you can press s and click and kill them all. They should have a chance to randomly circle you either clockwise or counter clockwise until they're behind you so they can actually overwhelm you.
>>576844369But I don't see how nihilism is a denial of reality.
>>576844579mobs in general are just kinda worthless. low level players just mash at them until they go away, high level players build a mob switch and ignore them forever. I'd rather they be rarer and stronger, and give a greater reward for killing them.maybe zombies still spawn at a reduced rate, but then you get a larger zombie boss that rarely spawns and summons hordes, and killing it gives a rare item and disables zombie spawns for a few ingame days or something. make it strong enough to be a threat, but weak enough that it's still something you can kill without much preparation while caving or whatever. as it stands you get basically nothing for interacting with monsters at all, except for the neutral enderman that you need to beat the game. >576844915either you're retarded or intentionally obtuse, done responding to you either way.
>>576836674for me the biggest takeaway is seeing how susceptible the cattle are to guzzling up absolute garbage if its nicely presented, but i guess i kind of knew that already
>>576845968A lot of online communities have a problem with toxic positivity these days

I'm not that invested in the legitimacy or whatever, guns are fun so im gonna use them.what is aeronautics? sounds interesting. 1.20.1 is arbitrary i guess, it's the patch that goatman is available for, and I wanted him because normal mobs are boring and most other horror mobs are kinda cringe. the GOATman stalks you and fakes you out and creates a sense of paranoia which is far more engaging than just random jumpscares.>>576863860i didnt know there are 2 minecraft generals until now, that's kinda weird.

>>576588361It is a Java game, anon. Just install java and run.Maybe some complex mods with weird dependencies might have issues, but so far i have no qualms at all. I can just install prism, install a version, and it runs with no problem at all

Do any anons have a reliable way to find dripstone caves? I need some spikes and have yet to find any.I tried chunkbase and minecraftsearch but they only show cheese caves
>>576899523>Dripstone caves generate underground at any altitude beneath areas with high continentalness values (≥ 0.8), which means they are usually found far inland, and are essentially never found under ocean biomes or bordering a coast. An indicator of high continentalness is when river fjords stop generating and mountain valleys are elevated.
how do you struggle to find dripstone caves? my main complaint about them is that they are too ubiquitous.
>>576899776Yes i know that, i am inland and haven't run into one.>>576900167idk man already ran into 2 sulfur caves and no dripstone yet
a friend's asking me for hardware upgrade advice, saying he'd like it if minecraft ran a bit better, but I don't know a thing about the game. I asked him to show me his task manager while it was running to see where the bottleneck is, since I figured the game was eating all his ram or something, but nothing's close to maxed out. is minecraft still like, single core performance only and that's where his problem probably is? he's got a 6 core amd so if that was the case I would think the usage would be pegged closer to 16% rather than the 4 core 25%, but who knows.
What kind of trades would you want a wandering trader to have?
>>576908684cosmetics that can only be gotten from hima new wood type that can only be gotten through him selling the sapling, either make that sapling trade guaranteed, or at least about 50% of all traders would have ita lava bucket
>>576908684New exotic dyes would be cool
>>576902154>single core performance onlyI think this is correct, at least for the server side (singleplayer runs a local server). Also make sure he's running performance mods (from the OP).
>>576912454sadly I think he's playing bedrock with other friends, and from what little I know about minecraft, bedrock is very locked down and not mod friendly
>>576915706lol bugrock is the issue, that shit is so terribly made and poorly optimized, that's probably why he's having issues.
>>576916069Why are you lying? Bedrock is famously the well optimized one of the two. Have you seen the render distances they let you have?
>>576916345True.
>>576916345lol
Should I, anons?
>>576920969anti enderman probably. especially if you do a lot of terraformingcreepers though, if they explode on something important it's probably your fault
>>576921117You know what? You're right. Thanks, anon.
>>576921189i will make an argument for endermen, though. a friendly guy placing a dirt or sand block somewhere in your house or near your house can be incredibly soulful. consider leaving enderman griefing on until you get annoyed by them, or you make something large and grandiose that would be silly to try and police enderman griefs on a case by case basis. or if you afk a LOT in one area. you can always turn it on later if you want.
>>576916069>poorly optimizedIt's buggy but it runs a lot more smoothly than fucking java.
>>576878923I created a mod that does just that. It adds a new workstation.1.20.1 only, btw, but some guy "forked" it for 1.21, I believe (he rewrote everything from scratch and only reused my assets).
>>576916345>>576923430nah renderdragon runs like asswipe, modern java minecraft legitimately performs better than current renderdragon does.
>>576920969Absolutely get the enderman one. Creepers don't blow up without a player nearby, but endermen will fuck up your lawn while you're nowhere nearby
>>576923885>he rewrote everything from scratch and only reused my assetsAbsolute chad.>your artwork is good, but your code is shit
How do you guys get through the tedium of mining? The crafting part of Minecraft is cool, building stuff is cool, but mining is just crap. Am I focusing too much on diamonds? Should I just be happy with iron?
>>576929297if you dont like mining you can just optimise for never doing it. everything can be farmed except diamonds, but anything youd want to make with diamonds can be bought from villagersthe only time i do anything mining adjacent is quarrying deepslate
>>576929297Throw yourself into a ravine. Fight for your life as you look for diamonds.
>>576929297caving is fun, mining is not. learn the difference. it could save your life
I survived the first night.
>>576923885>>576929201iirc the code for custom crafters changed a fair bit between 1.20 and one of the 1.21.X updates, cant remember which one. but it might have been a rewrite out of necessity
>>576513630hol up bro, they actually added concrete stairs and slabs ? last time i checked patch, it was all about wool stairs, god damn bro, that's pretty fuckin neato
>>576801887im still miffed about /v/ splash removal
>>576939420Come on, anon. A Microsoft product can't be advertising the wretched hive of scum and villainy that is 4chan.
>>576939420But /v/ sucks.
>>576939420its nice not to be associated with nu-minecraft
>>576942884Indeed.
>>576908684No more new trades but a way to lock a trade so it reappears again the next time they show up. Sand is useful.
The end fight is not even that hard; just take 2 stacks of scaffolding, 2 stacks of snowballs, some food, and something to hit the Ender Dragon, that's it. I beat it with a literal wooden stair.
>>576947729That's a good thing no one ever called the End fight "hard", then.
>>576947729>sandbox boss fight is easy if you know the strategy beforehandNo shit.
been way too quiet today...working my way back closer to 0,0, did a lot of exploring and gathered a lot of resources, gonna set up something a little more permanent. probably gonna disable the goat's block breaking now. if it was just the size of a creeper explosion I'd keep it but he will delete a massive chunk of blocks just to get to you. which is horrifying in the wild, but not gonna bother with it on my actual building.the goal is to kill him, but I have no idea how much hp he has, plus he tends to run away and despawn if I damage him too much. may need a trap instead. dude will tank point blank buckshot, maybe time to get to crafting a stronger gun.
>>576944039Or just a way to request a specific trade, say you were looking for jungle saplings or something
>>576949104Keep us posted, m'nigga.
>>576949104is the goat like the killer rabbit or snail?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGUwXMkca4Uhow hard is this actually?
I needed cobblestone, a purpose for resulted quarry and sugar cane farm. >>576921445Smarter Enderman griefing would be making them only pick up/place down blocks if they're currently hostile to something.
>>576952236it is a cryptid thing. he stalks you, will spawn random goat herds and hide in them, steals crops, and makes random noises to fuck with you. if you find him, he'll either charge you immediately or do a staring contest thing and then run away or charge. also aggro to random mobs, afraid of iron golems, and can't swim (which I think is a bug) also shoutout to whoever recommended regions unexplored, way better than biomes o plenty imo
>>576953346>look at enderman>he aggressively ruins your lawn
>>576953360holy shit it took me a while to see that. I would shit my pants if I was thereseems nice
>>576953346what's that hole anon ?
>>576929297Mining after the Caves update is stupid. Find a big fuckass cave at deepslate level and go crazy.>>576768574>>576896673>>576952434Day 3 and these niggas still barely getting by and disorganized. There's no way they're getting all 4 in one run in the ten days they allotted. Someone needs to teach them how to cheese villager trades for diamond gear.I don't actually know how you're supposed to kill the Warden but with moderate game knowledge the other three arent that bad.
https://www.minecraft.net/en-usMinecraft’s pegi rating was removed from the site replaced with a placeholder. Apparently this would happen before a major update was announced, since big additions could mean the rating has to be reconsidered
>>576957810The big addition in question? The cushion.
>>576958396Guess they saw all the erping people were doing combining cushions with beds and end rods
>>576959709Or the bed glitch where you can sit on someone's face
>>576908684>>576908983Capes would be cool
What's the current launcher of choice if you don't want to give MS money? PollyMC appears to be dead. Is Freesm decent?
>>576967618never had an issue with prism
made a sort of rudimentary pillbox on a small island offshore. can flip a lever to create a 1 block shooting hole in the event of a goatman attack. also upgraded to a rifle. got it enchanted, but still need to make attachments to push it to the next level. enchanted guns make the pack a punch sound from old cod zombies, which is a fun touch. STILL have not seen this guy, really freaking me out now. goats are spawning nonstop though, which is just great. might head to the nether for a bit, see what's up in there with the new biomes. hope he doesn't spawn there...
>>576929297I took the veinminer pill. After playing modded so much I can't live without it anymore.
>>576967913>finally spawns>kills one cow>despawnsFACE ME YOU SON OF A WHORE
>>576967943>veinminerEwww.May most of your blocks fall into lava, inshallah.
>>576967618>>576967787I'm using Prism at the moment. Works great. Doesn't look that great
>>576967787He's asking about pirate launchers.>>576967618/mmcg/ suggests Freesm and PineconeMC.
>>576967943But the tedium is not mining per se. It's finding the ore veins.
>>576967618>PollyMC appears to be deadI'm using it and it works fine. Nothing seems broken.
>>576926838what was that render distance on java again?
>>576971897all the mined ores drop at your feet :P>>576973581about 256 chunks at 1000+ fps with distant horizons + sodium.
>>57695781026.4 is the End Update.
>>576974706yeah as in the End of all updates, and it's just a juan and a new wood type.>>576974743shimmy into a 1x2 hole in the wall asap and look him in the eyes then smack him with the best weapon i've got, then be sad when he drops nothing.
>You're in a cave>An enderman appears infront of youWhat do you do?I usually nope out of there. Still on old world-gen>>576974856Sorry, I deleted post
>>576974542>all the mined ores drop at your feet :PMan, where's the fun in that?
get. out.
>>576974542Oh that's right, you have to mod in stability and improvements.
>>576977159Didn't you say he was afraid of golems? Now there's your chance to fuck him up. Unless the golem doesn't engage.
>>576977168Which is still better than not being able to mod in stability and improvements, at least as far as I'm concerned
>>576977168I click a download buttton for a performance improvement pack, and my preferred visual mods like distant horizons, and i can play minecraft at 1000 fps with little to no bugs and incredibly low system requirements. Bugrock you spend 10 dollars to buy an "addon" that's worse than the worst mcreator slop on curseforge and attempt to fight with the mobile phone ui and thousand bugs and glitches to even get a smidgen of real java minecraft gameplay.Bugrock bait is hardly worth acknowledging.
>>576977284he spawns decoy goats constantly. everywhere is a damn goat herd making damn goat noises. I step outside for 3 minutes and come back to goats in my house. they're normal goats so my bro isn't going to hit them, but the fucker is playing mindgames with me. I think he can spawn from a killed goat, but it hasnt happened yet...
Realistically, how long would it take you to beat all 4 bosses on Hardcore?
>>576978797With help, less time than alone.
>>576978797it would be fun to try this sometime but i've never done any amount of playing in hardcore, too scared. conservatively i'd say idk like 7 hours maybe? i wouldn't bed the dragon and i would want to be equipped in diamond gear from villagers first so that would take up a lot of time, as well as getting wither skulls.the only time i've killed a warden was punching it to death while naked with a bed right next to him so i died, punched, repeat until he died. i'd have to look into how to properly kill one first but i assume it couldnt take much if i'm kitted out already.
Wait, so if the block has any light whatsoever, no monster will spawn on it? Am I understanding this correctly? I remember having to put torches everywhere to prevent monsters from spawning in my home.
>>576979971Yeah around the caves and cliffs update they changed it so 1 light level was enough to block spawns. It used to be anything under 7 or so light level could spawn hostile mobs so you did have to really torch spam everywhere, but now you can be a LOT more sparing with torches and still be fine.
>>576978797Do you genuinely watch these two 'tardos? I thought it was just bump-bait.
>>576980203Thank God. The 7 light requirement was kinda silly. Thank you, anon.
>>576980338One of the better changes Mojang have done. Being able to build without spamming torches, and being able to use moody lighting is such a massive improvement
>>576980317It's just endearing to watch these niggas when they don't really know the game very well. They're just now deciding they should do prep work and build a totem farm even though they have no idea what a totem farm is.
>>576982483What is a totem farm? A raid farm? Some sort of pillager-outpost setup?
got enough food and ammo to last me for weeks. most of my property is slabbed up to hopefully spawnproof, and the golem guards the main house. the only way even to get near me is past a lava trap. your move, goatman
>>576983250lmao get fucked, goofy
>>576988969heh, finally got him. rest in piss.idk what he drops, but I know this mod doesn't have any specific items related to it apart from a spawn egg, so it's probably nothing too interesting. my guess would be xp and goat horns, if they're in this patch. highly recommend checking out the mod, it's super fun and some of the most interesting enemy ai I've seen in any video game ever
>>576989779well now that he's gone, I'm just gonna keep playing this world. I really like these other mods, and am even considering bringing some of them to my normal 'vanilla' world. But this was fun, I'm definitely gonna try more modded mine-
>>576980812I still wish there were more lighting options though. The torchberry should've emitted light..
Here are all the pigs.
are xhey right?
>>576994581>making minecraft about curiosity instead of sheer bloat to overwhelm this curiosity>accomplishes this by bloating the game even more than mojang has and removing anything that was interesting about the game in the first placeoh ok
Minecraft is for all races.
>>576994581The only point I agree on is that wandering traders giving maps to villages is good. But villages are so common in modern minecraft that it hardly matters anyway.Matcha has a lot of good changes and additions but they are buried beneath a sea of shit.
matcha is pretty shit, but I think the positive reception to it is more important than what's actually in it. I hope mojang doesn't look at this tranny and try to add his ideas to vanilla. you don't hate npcs enough
>>576994581Making surface peaceful is a bit of a good change IMO, by the time you get to the ender dragon you're done with vanilla mobs anyways, they just become an obstacle in your builds. Keeping them in caves still helps to distinguish it from peaceful.
>>576997528no, it's a pretty terrible change. at best they should make the radius of beacons a no spawn zone, and it should be optional and default to off. it would break mob farms made above the surface at a time when you need them most because you get the elytra when you beat the dragon. and that kind of change wouldn't disincentive mob farms, it would just make them harder to build. people would still build them but it would be even more tedious than before. horrible change.
>>576997528I feel like its a bad change because its just going to contribute to the "I beat the game" feeling that makes most people quit after beating the ender dragon. The game becoming pseudo-creative lategame should be treated as a problem not a feature because this is what causes boredom.
>nether: fast travel>end: elytraWhat kind of gameplay mechanic is the sift going to offer?
>>5770011392 new flowers (purely decorative, one will have an interesting use in snapshots that will be patched out before it reaches release)juan (retextured sniffer)
Hey /mcg/ I have a really stupid question you guys might be able to answer.I have never played Minecraft, so I don't have a working knowledge of how it, nor mods, works. I do however like Godzilla, and after checking out a little bit of the fan-made Godzilla Bloodbath series, I've been getting Bloodbath horror mod Mincraft videos popping up in my recommendations which are a bit entertaining, if feeling rather staged.But my question is, are all these videos AI or something? Maybe it's just different stages of development of the mod or something, but there is a strange inconsistency in how/where Bloodbath appears, and how it looks when it does. If these are videos of the same mod, I figure I'd see a little more repetition than I do
ishowspeed and kai cenat update:They successfully located an Ominous potion from a pillager outpost and now they're following a tutorial for building a raid/totem farm.>>576982831Yes, raid farm. Design that I'm familiar with involved building on top of an existing outpost but I guess you can build them wherever now.
>>577002121i have no fucking idea dude
offensively bad
durr he says
>>576997528its redundant when he has blocks that just instakill all mobs in radius though. the whole pack is like that, just random, disjointed, contradictory changes with no cohesive vision for the game
>>576994581>creepers living in cavesremoves the need to be wary at night time (replaced by the much worse mechanic of super speed zombies)>skeleton half hpdiamond sword with sharpness I would one-hit that>killing ender dragon makes surface peacefulSince the target group is casuals who don't want to build (farms), this makes them quit the game.The idea isn't bad, if its like a mod switch that you can turn on/off, but triggered by an event that all current players online have to participate in, and that can be undone by everyone individually... but even that would be unsuitable for his target group.>i want to give players options as rewarding as the otherThe vanilla game already has that in many aspects. If a player just HAS to min-max and HAS to follow youtube tutorials, no possible change can undo that.Imagine having a story based adventure game and players addicted to watching summaries and guides on youtube before playing. You can not fix those people, claiming that it is and that you do it, is a false promise.>wandering trader giving maps to villagesThat's alright, but doesn't change anything, because villages are so common.>making it about curiosity rather than bloatThe datapack adds different types of furnaces for no other purpose than wasting time, a bunch of food items with micro-crafting and takes away incentives for animal husbandry for food.
>minecraft requires you to build farms if you want lots of resources>heres my datapack to fix that by making resources more abundant>look inside>progression overhaul and botw food for some fucking reason, genuinely zero changes to resource gatheringi felt like i was having a stroke watching the video. he states the packs entire reason for existing is resource availability and then nothing he adds has anything to do with resource availability, its just "i want minecraft to be terraria mod/pack #35453"
>>577028878He did solve the needing lots of resources = needing to make farms issue. By making the dragon fight feel even more like an end to the game to the impressionable normies, their drive to play the game afterwards (and therefore the drive to build large projects requiring lots of materials) vanishes. So, no farms are necessary because there is no point in doing anything beyond the bare minimum in this slopfest of a datapack.
>>576990129So, did you jump off or?
>hunger doesn't add anything to base game except for being another bar to fill with right click, directly healing after taking damage (with some tweaks to not make it as busted as beta 1.7.3 with stacked food) is superior as no game has implemented good hunger system yetand it took one vegan to brown whole ideaholy shit
>>576994581>making minecraft about curiosity instead of sheer bloat to overwhelm this curiosityWhat is this simpleton even trying to say here? That "feature bloat" is killing his curiosity? But now this datapack (that adds even more bloat) rekindled it?
>>577031067>and it took one vegan to brown whole ideawhat does browning mean in this context? are you saying this was a good or bad thing?inb4>eslenglish is my first language im just not up on the buzzwords these days
>>577031067yeah the tweaks being you can only eat after a cooldown and the healing is a slower regen like thing rather than instant healingwhich is exactly how it's implemented in vanilla
>>577002121>if feeling rather staged.lol. That's one way of putting it.>are all these videos AI or something?Blender animations and/or heavy use of map editors. There isn't a single working Bloodbath mod.
>>577031412bad ofc, dont want to talk about removing hunger bar anymore as there gonna be associations with that smoking pile of matcha>>577031676>vanillaand vanilla still has retarded hunger bar that you have to fill even while building megashit in your forevershit because you happened to ran for a whole minute
>>577028203>removes the need to be wary at night time (replaced by the much worse mechanic of super speed zombies)Raspberry Flavoured "fixed" this by preventing surface creepers from griefing you. However, after they explode, they'll spawn several tiny creepers that'll try to religion-of-peace your ass.Underground creepers WILL break shit, though, and also they have a stone texture, so they're basically ninjas.I like it.
>>577028878>i want minecraft to be terraria mod/pack #35453I would easily pay 100 bucks for 3D Terraria. Minecraft is so shit compared to Terraria it's not even funny.
>>577032892>I would easily pay 100 bucks for 3D Terraria.I'm sure Allumeria won't be that expensive, anon.
>>577032892terraria is allowed to be as good as it is because it is 2d. all attempts at a 3d terraria have failed for a reason, the combat is just not there, the SOUL is just not there. minecraft modpacks trying to be terraria just don't hold a candle to it, and they get sloppier and sloppier the more they describe themselves as "souls-like" and such.
Normies will always have the issue of "having no incentive to play" in every sandbox game. They just live in denial and make up excuses. It's not them who is at fault, but the REQUIREMENT to build farms, because they NEED to do what others do, its not possible to do your own thing.When i started minecraft i played for a year in the same world without building a single farm besides some mob spawner, which i could do without tutorial and that rarely got used. And it was amazing.>but but i NEED to build a villager trading hall and reroll a librarian 200 timesFor what reason? Just throw it into an enchanting table. Need levels? We now have trial chambers.>NOOO, i NEED TO HAVE A STEADY SUPPLY OF SHARPNESS VWhy?You can't even address their actual issues, because they deny them. They need the opposite of what they claim. They need the sandbox to be removed. Nobody would play the game different from you if there is one clear path of progression, that doesn't allow deviation.It can branch, it can give you the pretense that you have choices, but it needs to be very clear about what you have to do at all times.Think about the games that normies play:>cookie clicker on their phone>afk gamesThink about the most popular minecraft servers:>Hypixel Skyblock>100% of popular survival servers have spawners you can buy with ingame shekels and like a minion that autokills those>they have some set arena area where you can farm manually endlessly>dedicated area to farm for specific resourcesJust be honest to yourself.
>>577033057>Allumeria>doubling down on the Minecraft blockinessHell no. That's completely the incorrect approach. Blockiness is something a 3D Terraria should run from. Low poly is where it's at and what it should target. Blocky terrain, yes, but everything else should be low poly, not blocky.
>>577032710I can get behind this one.The most annoying thing about creepers mid-game is that when you go out at night to kill some mobs, you leave behind a battle zone of bomb craters.Without having to patch creeper holes, you could go out and get a bit of gunpower whenever you run out of rockets.Actually, i may look into doing this by datapack myself, if its possible....
>>577033514i like building farms. i enjoy learning the mechanics behind why they work, how the designs were made, and gathering the resources for and building them in survival can be a fun zen thing. Afking them is a nice way to make progress in the world without actively playing it. And, i build them to further other projects that require those resources, or sometimes just to say i built a gold farm for example, that's something that took some amount of effort and it's something i haven't done before. Sometimes, rarely, I even make some slight modifications or a wholly 'original' farm from the information on how other farms like that are made, and that's a fun puzzle.I'll never understand the zoomers that loathe building farms, don't put the slightest thought into how they work or what they're for and just think it's necessary and forced upon them, and COMPLAIN the entire time before inevitably quitting the world or server just to do it all over again later. Completely hopeless group.
>hylics when placed into the WorldUh, I have no incentive to play? I have to "farm" and "innovate?". Is this vegan friendly? Why can't I just buy the items I need?
>>577033926>look into doing this by datapack myself, if its possible....Took me a minute, but it looks like they're using the creepers from Savage & Ravage, if it helps.https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/savage-and-ravage
>>577034018Normies see someone build a farm, and that it is effective, so they think they are required to do that as well. So they copy from a youtube tutorial, while having no idea how it works. And then they wonder why they don't enjoy the game and blame everyone else but themselves.The biggest lie of them all is:>if i don't have to make farms, i will build more and do actual buildsA farm can give a build a purpose. Surely you will love your large castle much more if there is a reason to go there, something inside that you need.btw. there aren't even that many blocks locked behind a requirement to farm mobs.Like if you want prismarine, mining the monument itself rather than building a farm is enough. Even getting bone blocks may be faster by going to a Soul Sand valley.It's unironically the new Resin that requires a farm from you.
>>577035029>>>if i don't have to make farms, i will build more and do actual builds>A farm can give a build a purpose. Surely you will love your large castle much more if there is a reason to go there, something inside that you need.this. making big farms and wrapping them in nice builds with the materials you get from the big farms was an idea i took a while to arrive at but was the gameplay loop that really unlocked the idea of a forever world for me
Castle interior is all mapped out so I've started actually decorating it. This is the dining hall. I can't wait for the cushions and terracotta stairs to finish it. I will be replacing the banners on the walls with terracotta. It also occured to me we don't have pressure plates for the other gem blocks
I can't believe pigman anon fucking died.
>>577034018I'm in the exact same boat. building farms is what I like most about the game, but I would never say the game made me feel like I NEEDED to build a farm. I've recently started trying to design all my farms myself just based off all the knowledge I've gathered over the years, and testing around in creative, and it's been even more fun. yeah, my farm desgins aren't the most efficient things out there, but they work and that's good enough for me. I recently built a small ghast farm just to try and get a ghast to the overworld to kill it for that advancement, and I had a great time designing and building the farm, and now I have a ghast farm for whenever I need ghast tears
>>577038042>but I would never say the game made me feel like I NEEDED to build a farm.you've never tried building something with prismarine
>>577040845I already have a guardian farm, so I have built with prismarine, but just get a conduit and some invisibility potions and go to town on a couple ocean monuments. that's how I tore the whole thing down to build my guardian farm to begin with
>>577037938looking good anon
>>576700381I like your idea
>>576844915Not him but reality isn't limited to the objectively observable cold matter, as nihilists and postmodernists would have you believe, it's much more than that.
>>577034018>Afking them is a nice way to make progress in the world without actively playing it.>NOT PLAYING THE GAME AND GETTING FREE STUFF IS SO FUN BROS!!!
>>577043623It's just like what anon said >>577033514Kinda funny.

lets say, hypothetically, i were to make a datapack (or mod) that actually does what the matcha guy said he was going to do, and makes farm-reliant resources more abundant. what are the resources thatd need something?>resin>prismarine>gunpowderim sure im missing lots, im a farmfag so i dont really think about the game this way. like to me an iron farm is pretty essential, but to an anti farm player is the mining option fine?theres also the question of stuff thats plentiful in certain places. like mangrove wood is very plentiful if you go to a swamp for it, but is going there every time you need it acceptable? if you just go there once, bring back some saplings, and use those every time you need a bunch of mangrove, thats a pain in the ass
>>577033514>Its a SANDBOX so that means there should be no rules or obstacles and people should be allowed to do whatever they want however they wantI see this sort of retarded thinking a lot but I think there is a fundamental misunderstanding when you call survival Minecraft a sandbox.There is a difference between a survival sandbox and a true sandbox. Its the difference between survival and creative mode. Playing Kerbal Space Program in career mode where you have to pay for parts vs sandbox mode where you don't. Playing Cities Skylines with infinite money and resources vs having to balance the economy and services.A survival sandbox derives its fun from presenting challenges and obstacles in your way of creating things. Think about every other survival sandbox ever and how retarded it would be to justify an infinite money printer that trivialises the experience because "its a sandbox broooo"You play survival mode because it has obstacles and resource gathering that make your builds feel earned compared to creative and because it gives you more varied gameplay because instead of just building you're doing other things like gathering materials, exploring, fighting monsters etc. The more you take away from these obstacles the more dull survival becomes. The more you make fighting monsters and gathering materials trivial the less interesting survival becomes. Minecraft not having "clear progression" is not the issue that "normies" have. Its that the "progression" of game comes from building mob farms which require you exploit hidden mechanics like the specifics of mob pathfinding and spawning for the reward of making your game more boring by removing the need for fighting mobs or gathering resources. >just ignore it bro, no one is forcing you to play in the most effective way!The most effective way of playing a game should be the most fun way of playing a game. If the only challenge is self imposed then the game fundamentally fails at being a survival sandbox
How do you guys like the new world generation? I've barely played on the new one and thought it was alright except for the caves. I think I prefer the caves in the old world-gen. I could be wrong of course. What do you think?
>>577054550Its good enough that I stopped bothering with world gen mods but not perfect. I like the new caves but I think the massive caverns are a little too common which makes them less cool to find. I'd like a mix where most of the caves are like the old cave gen but you'd rarely come across big cavern systems like modern gen.
>>577052795Well. Leather.>but to an anti farm player is the mining option fine?It should be. I can't think of a way to make it more abundant without needing to farm a mob. Or maybe you could add more iron to a few loot tables (Nether Fortresses, Illager Outposts).
>>577052795I think the average player tends to see the following mob farms as pretty much necessary>expBecause the enchanting system is retarded and everyone abuses mending. Remove mending and make enchanting less retarded. Maybe add other sources of lots of exp like disenchanting gear could refund exp, so you could get a lot of exp from disenchanting slop gear you find while adventuring. >skeletonsTypically a byproduct of generic exp/mob grinder but arrows are annoying to craft due to how annoying flint is to gather and feathers are scarce unless you have an auto chicken farm as well. Just make flint craftable from gravel directly and have chickens drop more feathers or something similar.Bonemeal is also super useful to have in large quantities but I think fossils in the nether already give a pretty decent alternative unless you need literally infinite for another farm.>creepersPeople want rockets to use the elytra to travel everywhere. Delete the elytra and noone would want a creeper farm. >iron golemsI think people mainly want a ton of iron specifically because hoppers are so expensive for how many you need for contraptions. Rails too. Make these waaay less expensive and I think people would be okay with the amount of iron from caving with a fortune pick. >cowsNeed tons of leather for bookshelves mainly. Changing the book recipe to give 3 books, so 1 leather = 1 bookshelf would help. Letting you make leather from rotten flesh helps with leather supply a ton but Mojang would never consider that for obvious reasons.Things like prismarine and resin are annoying to get lots of without a farm but unless you want their specific blocks for a build people dont bother with them so I don't deem them as necessary.
>>576993992What's with the random string?
>>577061753If animals won't breed on their own, there should be a way to get around feeding by hand.Maybe add troughs or something that you can fill with food and animals will simply go to to become willing. Give this system a penalty like slower time to breed or longer cooldown between willingness so that doing it by hand would yield better results for the time invested.
>>576993992I need to know this mod that makes pigs funny looking
>>577052802Survival becoming duller because of choices you make doesn't make it any less of a sandbox game. You thinking your way is the most fun way to play doesn't mean the game's not a sandbox. Multiple people each having a different opinion on what's the most fun way to play, and the game letting you do whatever with the tools it gives you, is what makes it a sandbox.
Tried building a bit different from how i normally do and I kinda like how it turned outAlso, what are (You)r favorite soundtrack picks?For me it's>aria math>danny>broken clocks>featherfall>memories
>>577068365That looks great, anon. A good example of actual nice texturing. I can't help but hate the fact that dark oak trapdoors look like chocolate bars, though
>>576997528If you never had to worry about mobs, then lighting up and spawn-proofing areas wouldn't matter anymore. It would be like giving the player infinite saturation. Sure, it would be convenient, but it would also kill an entire aspect of the game
>>577028203>takes away incentives for animal husbandry for foodI think this is probably my biggest issue with it. The whole "all options should be equally rewarding" approach really only works when you're talking about major systems; not minor details. You should be able to reach the same performance in an RPG whether you play warrior, ranger, or mage, because those are options that affect the entire gameplay experience. If you can choose to either breed animals or grow crops for food, then most people are simply going to pick crops because they're easier to manage and don't cause any entity lag. The result is that you've done twice the work (two sets of recipes) for the same amount of content. Something that takes more effort should always provide a better reward, whether through direct value or scalability. Farms are more efficient because they scale better, but that's irrelevant to someone who doesn't need several shulker boxes of iron blocks. In that sense, you already have your options: put in a little bit of effort to mine a little bit by yourself, or put in a lot of effort to build a farm that produces endless resources. Now some farms might be too easy to build for how good they are, but you don't solve that by making the manual method equally overpowered
I miss my previous world from a few years back, I think it's gone forever and there's no way to search for the seed.It wasn't super special but I spawned in a coastal windswept savanna underneath a huge sky island with a waterfall and a lavafall, I thought it was cool.
>>577031298To be fair, it's a lot of fun to mess around with your own projects. I can easily see how that would rekindle his interest in the game
>>577033926I still want a shield bash attack that can stun enemies. I might actually use shields then, if they can interrupt creepers, instead of always carrying a totem because why not
>>577067821>Survival becoming duller because of choices you make doesn't make it any less of a sandbox game. You thinking your way is the most fun way to play doesn't mean the game's not a sandbox.I think you completely misunderstood what I wrote if you think that's what I was claiming.
>>577071395I suppose I did. I'm ESL after all. So what did you claim?
>>577033514When I came back to MC after like a 6-7 years away, I didn't build any farms either. I had fun with manually harvesting wheat and slowly building and decorating a mansion for myself. But then I started getting fed up with manually composting all the seeds and learned about hoppers. From there I picked up enough redstone knowledge to automatically harvest my wheat, and over the course of a few years I reached a point where I now build massive farms for no other reason than that I enjoy doing so. I never *needed* to make a farm, I simply ended up wanting to. I think farms make the game better, but there's always going to be idiots who try to copy trends instead of experiencing something for themselves
>>577072019Put some effort in.
>>577068365really nice job anon>Also, what are (You)r favorite soundtrack picks?i play with music turned off. always have. i can appreciate the soundtrack, i just never liked them in game
>>577073237Alright man, just let me know when you figure out the definition of a sandbox game
>>577038042I added a recipe to "un-dye" terracotta using ghast tears purely so I'd have a reason to build a ghast farm. No regrets
>>577052795If you're talking collecting resources, you could try adding something like Fortune for non-ores. If, through some expensive recipe or rare drop, you could get Abundance, which gives a chance to double blocks you mine, that'd be a good way of rewarding manual labor. Maybe have it not affect ore and minerals blocks, since they're already boosted by Fortune
>>577074917>erm ye survival sandbox and sandbox games are totally identical bro. GMOD has the same game design constraints as Valheim alright man!! Retard.
>>577075756i wondered about something like that, the only problem i can think of is since something like a log just drops itself, if you mine a log with your abundance axe, it drops two logs, then you can place those and break them to get four logs, and so on. its basically just a duping machine
>>577075820Not all sandbox games have to be identical, anon. The definition of sandbox is very loose. Like sand
>>577076491Yeah almost like there is a whole genre of "survival sandbox" games like I already fucking said retard. Try to actually what people say next time.
finally got a place set up for some farmers. nothing fancy but does the job. now i can stay topped up on my favourite vegan food, just dont tell the matchafags how im getting my emeralds
>>577052802this is a really good argument for farms. you put in time, effort, and materials into building the farm, and you spend more time operating the farm to get your resources. you exchange a lot of time and effort (and the learning required to operate the farm and fix it when/if it breaks) for the privilege of getting to easily acquire large amounts of the material the farm is for without needing to acquire it the slower, more manual way. If survival minecraft was ACTUALLY like the sandbox mode of those games you were describing, where you get infinite resources for free with no effort put in, then you might have a point. But bashing farms because they allow you to put effort in and be rewarded for it is like bashing iron armor or an iron sword instead of your fists for fighting mobs. "Tsk, might as well play creative, why should the game give you options to let you have an easier time at combat?". It's just silly.
>>577076767And Minecraft fits that box you mongYou can do whatever with the tools you are given. There is no endgame. There is no story. You can make the farms and be as efficient as can be, or you can choose not to and just fuck about. That is what defines a sandbox. You not liking that farms are the ''meta'' does not matter

I had a dream last night that Mojang created the sex update, but they called it the Sextant Update, where they removed F3, and added a Orientation villager profession with the new sextant tool crafted with a spyglass and comparator, as well as a new star texture for night with constellations. By looking at certain stars at certain times the player could get their world angle. Waking up I realized it's totally an update Notch would have done for the lulz fifteen years ago, and I'm sad Microsoft won't let Minecraft have fun anymore.
>>577084993Oh.
>>577085130I'm confused. Where's the sex? You promised me sex.I liked what you described, but still, no sex...
Is there a faster way of doing this? I don't see any mod that allows you to drop an entire stack in the composter and get the correct amount of bonemeal out.
>>577079581>If survival minecraft was ACTUALLY like the sandbox mode of those games you were describing then you might have a pointI'm not saying that its like true sandboxes like GMOD - infact I said the opposite its a survival sandbox more akin to Valheim and that that receiving infinite resources is not justifiable by calling it a sandbox BECAUSE it is not pure sandbox like GMOD. Survival mode is a survival game at its core, moreso than a sandbox. Which is why you can die and why you have to harvest resources rather than just getting them for free like creative mode or pulling up a GMOD menu and spawning shit.The fact that there is a tiny buy in to farms and you have to spend 10 minutes building it to get infinite resources doesn't justify their existence. Especially since 99% of people are just copying a farm design and/or reading mechanics off the wiki.>"Tsk, might as well play creative, why should the game give you options to let you have an easier time at combat?Its not like that because crafting a sword or armor does not completely invalidate a big part of the gameplay loop. Building an iron farm does - which is the problem I described. You never have to go caving for an important resource ever again.A better example would be if eating the dragon egg gave you infinite health and creative flight forever so you never had to worry about dying from taking damage because hey its a sandbox bro its just a tool! You put effort in and got a reward out! But obviously having infinite health and creative flight would invalidate so much of the survival aspect of the game. >>577079584>And Minecraft fits that box you mongYeah that’s why I fucking said that survival mode was a survival sandbox, did you even read the post?>You not liking that farms are the ''meta'' does not matterYeah retard, I never said it did. Me liking or not liking something was not a factor in the post. Try to actually read what people write dumbfuck.
>>577087483You can do it in vanilla. Learn to use hoppers
so I built a fake mountain around my ominous bottle farm on an anarchy server and then submerged it in water, but now the spawn rates of pillagers are at like 30-40% of what it should be in open air... anyone know why? there are no places for pillagers to spawn above and afaik the spawning area should be centered around the tower anyway
Guys, hear me out...InfiniteMiningDimension(Containing horrors beyond my comprehension.)The dimension resets itself between each trip.Keep it or leave it?
>>577088276no as someone will find how to minmax it and it will just turn into a farm
>>577088474Well I'm not trying to kill farms, I'm trying to give a decent alternative to people who don't want to make farms.This way they don't have to travel that far away from home, they land directly in a cave with a higher ore distribution than in the overworld, but they take more risks because mobs there are harder.
>>577087619>Building an iron farm doesbuilding farms does not invalidate parts of the gameplay loop, it allows you to choose which parts of the gameplay loop you'd like to spend more time and effort doing. mining or building. if you'd rather spend more time building, you build an iron farm. >A better example would be if eating the dragon egg gave you infinite health and creative flight forever so you never had to worry about dying from taking damage because hey its a sandbox bro its just a toolyou're just completely disingenuous and retarded i dont really know what else to tell you. do you think getting full netherite armor and resistance 2 beacons is cheating because you basically can't die? do you think collecting lots of totems of undying is cheating because you basically can't die? are you retarded? do you need to be forced to do tedious activities over and over in order to play the game because it's part of the gameplay loop and you can never ever spend that time being creative instead?
>>577088276i'd be pretty for this, mostly. i dont think it resetting every trip would be very good or minecrafty, the chance of someone leaving important things there in chests (or even worse, dying there and losing all of their things) would be too high. You should be able to reset it willingly by throwing a diamond in the portal or something, something you can't do accidentally but it's important you can do it when you've mined out all the areas near you in the dimension thoroughly so it can keep it's place as mining near you without needing to go out thousands of blocks. Maybe make mobs spawn at every light level, or at light levels below 7 or something like they used to so it's harder or impossible to set up a proper outpost there or a tunnel bore (thus incentivizing the use of the reset feature), but if some dedicated autists CAN do it despite that it would be cool to see, because options are good.
>>577089848>it allows you to choose which parts of the gameplay loop you'd like to spend more time and effort doing.It lets you choose between infinite AFK iron forever for free or having to spend time caving and mining, fighting monsters and actually playing the game. WOW what an interesting choice I wonder what literally everyone will choose. Let me play survival but let me choose to turn off all the survival aspects and justify it by saying its a hecking sandbox! (even though its a survival sandbox, not just like GMOD where you can do anything)> forced to do tedious activities over and over in order to play the game because it's part of the gameplay loop and you can never ever spend that time being creative instead?Yes, welcome to survival sandbox games. Its quite literally the point of playing survival instead of creative. You have to gather resources to earn your builds. If you don't want tedious resource gathering then why not play creative mode genuinely? You could spend more time building and being creative.Why warp survival into something its not by demanding you get infinite resources for literally nothing? You call me disingenuous for saying infinite health and creative flight but you would be defending it with the exact same arguments just like you are defending fucking totems.
>>577094012>You have to gather resources to earn your builds.Yeah, I gathered resources to build an iron farm, or a gold farm, or a cobble farm, and then i built them, and now i can get lots of resources for builds that way. It's pretty fun. I'm playing this survival sandbox game by using the tools it provides me to make cool contraptions to build more cool contraptions and vanity builds. It's fun, you should try it sometime. >actually playing the game.wait, are you saying building isn't playing the game? that's weird, i thought that was the entire point of this game. huh. i'm not playing the game because i'm playing it differently from you? if you just want cock and ball torture you can force that upon yourself, the game allows you to do that. it's a sandbox, afterall. others can use that sandbox to skip or avoid the cock and ball torture.>If you don't want tedious resource gathering then why not play creative mode genuinely?there's no reason to build or design cool farms for resources in creative. there's no reason to design cool teleportation or other transportation infrastructure in creative. pushing survival to its limits is fun.

>>577094414>are you saying building isn't playing the game?No I'm saying AFKing for resources isn't playing the game. By definition.> i'm not playing the game because i'm playing it differently from you? No because leaving your PC on and walking away is not playing the game.>f you just want cock and ball torture you can force that upon yourselfThat's the problem. You shouldn't need to self impose challenge in a survival game because a bunch of retards want to play creative in survival.>there's no reason to design cool teleportation or other transportation infrastructure in creative.Yeah the reason to design these things in survival is because survival has limitations so why do you want to remove all limitations and play creative in survival with infinite resources for free? It makes no sense. You want your builds to feel earned and useful by having to gather resources yourself and then you choose to skip the gathering resources yourself stage thus making them not really earned. Why does spending 10 minutes setting up a farm make you feel like infinite iron is remotely a fair payoff?
>>577096249Ok, so if I'm building my castle while near my iron farm am I playing the game then? Ok, if I'm in the process of building the farm am I playing the game then? >Yeah the reason to design these things in survival is because survival has limitations so why do you want to remove all limitations and play creative in survival with infinite resources for free?I don't want to remove all limitations and play creative in survival. I want to collect resources and build farms that allow me to collect large amounts of resources for larger projects.>You want your builds to feel earned and useful by having to gather resources yourself and then you choose to skip the gathering resources yourself stage thus making them not really earned.I'm spending effort to set up farms and learn how they work in order to gather resources to build things (building is a tedious and difficult endeavor in of itself). Smelting raw iron into iron ingots is a game mechanic and is earned.Is killing a zombie for an iron ingot (a game mechanic) allowed in your eyes?Is killing iron golems for iron (a game mechanic) allowed in your eyes?Or the fact that villagers spawn iron golems (a game mechanic) and killing those for iron, is that allowed?Crops grow automatically without you needing to do anything. Do you disallow yourself from using crops because you're not playing the game while they grow?You are genuinely an insufferable retard. Go play matcha flavored and then go to reddit instead of returning here.
>>577030913i spawn egged him for the final screenshot then he butted me into my own lava trap. a victim of my own hubris. added another stalker (or stalkers? ooooooh) and changed the gun mod to something that seems a little less grindy and annoying so gonna give it another run. plus it's fun to use guns i actually own in minecraft. upped the spawn rates and will be allowing them to spawn in all dimensions so we'll see how it goes. goal is to of course kill them and beat the game this time
>>577052802The accidental genius of Minecraft is the progression from doing everything by hand to automating it, and the fact that you never have to go that far unless you want to. If you just want to build some houses, a few roads, maybe a minecart track or two, then you don't need farms. If you, on the other hand, want to build a giant castle with an automated storage system and auto-crafters to keep your chests full, you might very well need ten thousand hoppers and the iron it takes to craft them. I agree with what you're saying in essence, I just don't think it applies to farms in Minecraft
>>577096750>Is killing a zombie for an iron ingot (a game mechanic) allowed in your eyes?>Is killing iron golems for iron (a game mechanic) allowed in your eyes?Yes because you're doing it yourself, at risk of your own health, at the cost of durability of your weapons instead of getting infinite amounts for absolutely nothing.>Crops grow automatically without you needing to do anything.You harvest crops yourself and replant them yourself rather than just getting infinite crops forever because you planted a seed once.Do you really not see the difference? These are examples of you actively playing the game, not just setting up a money printer once and getting infinite money forever.
>>577076028For sure, but there's no way that I know of to separate player-placed blocks from world-gen blocks. That's why it should have something like a 5-10% chance, so it's not really worth standing around mining the same block over and over. It's better to go mine like normal, and return home with 10% extra blocks
>>577097617>The accidental genius of Minecraft is the progression from doing everything by hand to automating itThis only works well in modded Minecraft where automation comes at a cost. Like spending fuel to power machines. Factorio does the same thing in a much healthier and well designed way.
>>577098523Automation does come at a cost. The cost to set it up and the time cost of afking at it or being near it. That's good enough. There's no reason to constantly drain resources for no reason.And, if you want that, you have all the things that can only be farmed by using bonemeal. So if you want a lot of tall flowers you need to set up the tall flower farm (very simple), and also a bonemeal farm. That's neat.
>>577087958I think sky access has an effect on some farms, and possibly also the heightmap. As in, if you place blocks above their spawning spots, that can lower the rates. You could try removing the block directly about the outpost and see if it helps. I could also be completely wrong, it's certainly not my forte
>>577087958yeah the spawning algorithm goes off the highest block placed at an xy point. adding a single block far above a spawning platform can dramatically reduce the rates of spawning, so covering it in a mountain would do that. just the blocks idrectly above where pillagers spawn matter. it makes me cringe anytime the artsy builder block vomiters cover mob farms in a massive tower or pyramid or something, because they have just murdered the rates of an optimized farm.
>>577098523The cost is building the farm, in terms of time, effort, and materials. I actually think Factorio misses the mark in a way, since you're always automating everything in that game. Going from manual labor to factory overseer is a large part of what I like about Minecraft, whereas Factorio feels more like a job in logistics. I get that some people like that about Factorio, but it's why I never bothered beating it. Once I was done designing a factory that had a 1:1 ratio of all the science pack, and I really just had to get more iron and copper, and sit back until the rocket was researched and built, I got bored and stopped playing
>>577098729>The cost to set it up and the time cost of afking at it or being near it.The cost to set up an iron farm is virtually nothing and the cost of running it is literally nothing.>There's no reason to constantly drain resources for no reason.Its pretty much the fundamental principle of Minecraft. Like you have to spend resources to get anything but the most basic of resources. You have to spend fuel to refine resources.>So if you want a lot of tall flowers you need to set up the tall flower farm (very simple)This is the sort of automation I'm perfectly fine with (if you don't attach a bonemeal farm) because the bonemeal is basically fuel for a machine). Like feeding inputs and fuel automatically into a furnace. So you'd go out and gather fuel to harness to spend on automated processes like this - its still active gameplay involving the player even if the process itself is largely hands off. If iron farms had a cost like this I would be okay with them because they would involve the player input in some way. Infinite free iron forever with no player input or anything just doesn't make sense in a survival game.>>577099394I suppose the difference with Factorio is that you can't build cool structures for the sake of it or go exploring like Minecraft to fill up time like that.
>>577099161that's what I thought, but somehow I got the rates up to like 60-70% by making a floating platform
>>577031796Ahh, I gotcha. Yeah that sounds about right.Thank you
terracotta stairs/slabs AND dappled forest generation tweaks tomorrow
I saw a cool texture pack for minecraft that makes it look like a gameboy.
>>577112621why are you pretending to care
>>577117252I have one but for minish cap, the gba graphics are kino
>>577112621>dappled forest generation tweaks tomorrowhahaahaha..newmojang will die on the hill for their shitty new worldgen method
>Wool slabs and stairs>Concrete slabs and stairs>No terracotta slabs and stairs
>>577112621Two more weeks, juanbros...
>>577140768today's the day
>>577100365>(if you don't attach a bonemeal farm)If I had spent the time it took to design my moss farm on collecting bone blocks in a soul sand valley, I'd probably have enough bone meal to last me for a year. But unlike running around a single biome mining blocks, designing a moss farm was actually fun for me
>>577137407Why does everyone forget about glass? I'd rather have stairs and slabs for glass than terracotta
>>577149238I just think of all the colored blocks terracotta has the nicest shades. Also I don't use glass in my world
>>577149067don't bother engaging. he's either a troll or someone who is too autistic to understand that different people enjoy playing the game in different ways
>>577137407>>No terracotta slabs and stairsToday's snapshot, trust the plan.
>>577151127They said last week that the drop was feature complete
>>577149635>people enjoy playing the game in different waysThis applies to things like choosing to use a different weapon in a game, some people want to use a sniper while other people want to use a shotgun - but in both cases while they have benefits and drawbacks they don't break the gameplay loop. If you had a gun that just instantly killed every enemy on the map and you justify its existence in the game because "bro don't remove it I just like looking at the scenery without any enemies, people enjoy the game in different ways bro!". But its very existence in the game trivialises it for everyone else.Yes I'm sure you like infinite free resources at zero cost or effort by abusing exploits but it doesn't belong in the game. >b-b-but I like designing farms99% of people that use farms do not make their own designs, they just copy shit from a wiki or video. Its toxic stain on the design of the game.
>>577137407>still no actual vertical slabs
>>577155697>still can't put 2 different slabs on one another
no snapshot today, something broke apparently…
>>577153096If I follow somebody else's guide for building a roof or simulating an architectural style is that also a stain on the game?
>>577160168No because that’s just aesthetic and provides no ingame functional value moreso than a dirt hut. It doesn't affect the gameplay loop in any way. And the problem is not that tutorials exist, its more that everyone has to follow external guides and resources to unlocking functionality as strong as an infinite free iron printer. Anyone can build a roof, even if its not pretty. Whereas something like even a basic mob farm requires abstruse technical knowledge on mob spawning and pathfinding AI that you read from a wiki rather than from naturally playing the game.
>>577153096I'll agree with you that copying and pasting farm designs with no idea how they work is a soulless way to play, but I would say the same for people who copy and paste other people's builds. if you copy a farm design, but you have an understanding of how and why it works, I don't see an issue, though I still prefer to design my own farms even if they are less efficient. that being said, I will never agree with you that all farms should be removed. just don't engage with farms if you don't like them. simple as. now if you're just saying that some farms are too overpowered and should be nerfed, we can come to an agreement there. it's still funny to me how Mojang's attempt to nerf iron farms made them easier and more accessible than ever to build>>577162280all those behaviors can be easily learned through playing the game and testing in survival or creative. in fact, that's all how it was originally figured out. it's not our fault you are too retarded to understand basic spawning mechanics

>>577175190I've been playing on a realms server with a friend for a little over a week and I started building a house on a cliff edge in the wooded badlands and I love the vibe of getting to see it poking out from the trees from a distance from the higher elevations towards spawn and getting to look into the distance of the desert and river network from the cliff... peak comfy shit
>>577172783im pretty sure youre joking but just in case youre not this is where it comes from
>>577184286Where did you get this picture of me??

>>577185953Not if you build a semi-automated farm
>>577168414>but you have an understanding of how and why it worksBecause the only reason you understand how it works is because you had to use external resources like the wiki or videos to understand the mechanics of how it works rather than learning them through gameplay.> I will never agree with you that all farms should be removedThey either need to be removed or substantially reworked. I think that mob farms are typically a symptom of other bad game design problems eg exp farms for mending/enchanting and how much iron people need vs how much you can reasonably get via caving. So if these are addressed then a mob farm would not feel like a mandatory part of survival. This is why I also think the "just don't engage with farms bro" solution doesn't work. Because if you want a lot of hoppers or prismarine etc you need to have mob farms as there is no alternative. But Mojang will never add healthier alternative solutions while mob farms exist. And they simply shouldn't be free to run forever. The whole setting up a farm once for infinite of a resource is bad. In modded minecraft where you can set up machines that produce infinite iron at the cost of fuel its fine.>all those behaviours can be easily learned through playing the game and testing in survival or creative.I don't think its reasonable to expect the average player to test out shit like iron golem spawn mechanics in survival without prior knowledge. I bet a lot of people don't even know iron golems respawn in villages, let alone shit like villages being scared by zombies.>it's not our fault you are too retarded to understand basic spawning mechanicsIts the fault of the game for not making mechanics clear. Or rather, mechanics around something like iron golem spawns are purposely not presented to the player because the player is not supposed to abuse them for infinite free iron forever. I don't think anyone is retarded for not automatically figuring out obscure mechanics like that on their own.

>>577186538>you only understand this thing because you read about it>this is bad for some reason You are stupid >They either need to be removed or substantially reworkedOkay so if people are making farms because resource gathering is tedious why is the answer to remove the ability to farm (if you want to) instead of lowering the recoil in resource gathering? How would you even do that without heavily reworking things like mob spawns or how dungeon spawners work?>Its the fault of the game for not making mechanics clearMost games do not explain granular mechanics like mob spawns or shop mechanics and fans typically do peak into the backend to learn about these things. Whinging about these things in minecrap, a game which has always had fans pushing the boundaries of the engine is ridiculous. People were making boat elevators before the water physics got changed. Before powered rails nobody actually made "proper" rail systems they just used the minecart slingshots. People were making functional computers in beta builds of the game. Humans are problem solvers, we will see an obstacle and say "what's the best way to get around that" get over it
>>577157309>Update that modders made in an afternoon>Somehow break it still
>>577175190>1365x767Shit. I'm sorry, anon.
>>577188821>>this is bad for some reason>You are stupidYes its bad game design that such an incredibly powerful ""feature"" to be locked behind wiki reading. YOU are stupid if you think otherwise.>Okay so if people are making farms because resource gathering is tedious why is the answer to remove the ability to farmFor all the reasons I already stated? Read the prior posts explaining it in detail.>How would you even do that without heavily reworking things like mob spawns or how dungeon spawners work?One simple solution would be that certain mobs like the iron golem wouldn't drop loot unless its directly killed by the player. Similar fix to what they did with exp.>Most games do not explain granular mechanics like mob spawnsIn most games its not a supposedly intended feature for you to abuse said mob spawns so its not necessary. Its the very important difference.>Before powered rails nobody actually made "proper" rail systems they just used the minecart slingshots.Yeah and they removed minecart slingshots and added rails because relying on an exploit for such a fundamental thing was bad (GEE I WONDER WHAT ELSE WE COULD APPLY THAT TO)>Humans are problem solvers, we will see an obstacle and say "what's the best way to get around that" get over itIts the job of developers to make sure these solutions are healthy for the game. I expect players to try to find every possible exploit for an advantage, but any decent developers would patch "infinite money glitch" exploits.Imagine you're playing a city building sandbox where the gameplay is balancing the economy and services while trying to build out your city and someone figures out hey if I build these specific buildings in a specific configuration it gives me 10,000 times the money of an entire city - you wouldn't go "ERM JUST DONT USE IT IF YOU DONT LIKE IT ITS HUMAN INGENUITY MAAAN SOME PEOPLE LIKE TO PLAY THE GAME DIFFERENT TO YOU!!!" because it so obviously trivialises such an important part of the game.
>>577184286poor juan ;_;
How the fuck are normal people supposed to know how to get these blocks? What were they thinking?What's next? Bring a baby zombie to the Nether, throw it on the back of a ghast and watch it start shitting diamond blocks?
This is tempting me. Any of you use it?
>>577191648I feel like these were intended for the frogs eating fireflies which would have been around the swamp
>>577191974Never felt the need to install it in Minecraft, but I use something similar in Vintage Story because fuck that noise.
>>577192152That's also my guess, but the fix they came up with is fucking shit.Here's another allowing players to ACTUALLY discover this by themselves:Frogs have a 2% chance of eating your nearby torches every [blank] ticks, dropping a froglight in the process.
>>577192152That was the plan. In fact, the splash art of that update has a frog seemingly about to eat something that can't be seen. There's also space for the deep dark which remains empty
I really didn't want to install a resource pack but I detest the vanilla paintings bar a few exceptions. Looking around I can't seem to find any decent painting pack that fits this build, either. It's either all mixed styles or it just straight up looks like ass. Anyone know some good medieval style packs?
>>577192201>Vintage StoryHow is that game compared to Minecraft?
>>577193898Oops, turns out I misremembered. The deep dark is there, but they added a desert on the right side instead of the birch forest that never got updated. I knew there was something about a removed biome. The frog is in the top left quarter
>>577193938Much harder. My first time playing I was killed by a mouflon. It bodied me in the middle of the night as I was passing by.You have to manage your hunger all the fucking time, but animals spot you from very, very far. The ones that don't have garbage drops that will barely refill your hunger. You get hungry fast.Food spoils. You need to build cellars. Craft crocks. Learn to cook. Local temperatures have an impact on food spoilage rates and your own body temperature, of course. Cold can fuck you up.There are seasons. Plant crops. Hope they survive the winter. Fence everything off, or fucking rabbits will eat your crops.Mining is a whole lot of guesswork. It's fun when it works, tiring when it doesn't.I'm currently being filtered by the Copper Age because getting to the Bronze Age involves a lot of mining.The game includes horrors beyond your comprehension. Every so often some sort of "blood moon" will trigger, but honestly it's more boring than it is fun.The world's great, though.While you feel like a caveman, the world is somewhat post-apocalyptic with ruins to prove it.
>>577193938Grindy
>game has confusing textures
>>577191454outside of hoppers, iron isn't even that useful and you can easily get enough iron for hoppers from mining unless you are building giant sorting systems, which I know you aren't because you probably think that is cheating as well. quit crying, faggot. though I do agree that iron golems should only drop iron ingots when killed by a player and iron nuggets otherwise to be less OP
>>577197697Pistons use iron as well
>>577198000same thing. you aren't going to be using loads of them unless you are building big farms or comtraptions you probably consider cheating
>>577197554Why are niggas like this?
>>577198139Lanterns. Chains.If you want your builds not to look like dogshit, you need iron.Also rails if you're into that.
>>577198139But... it's because I build big farms that I have an iron farm in the first place?
>>577198448you can easily get enough iron for laterns and chains from mining. they are extremely cheap. I'll give you rails, but you shouldn't be able to build giant rail lines without some grinding
>>577199762>you shouldn't be able to build giant rail lines without some grindingniggas say this then wonder why mojang hates minecarts
>>577197697Iron is definitely useful for decorative purposes and sorting systems aren't cheating. They don't break any rules of the game.
>>577200294>They don't break any rules of the game.neither do iron farms. they just use intended game mechanics in unintended ways. if you want to talk about nerfing iron farms because they are too OP, sure I've already agreed there, but there is nothing to remove as the mechanics are working as intended
>>577199762But anon, I want it all. Chains, lanterns, rails, hoppers. Armor.So I'll make an iron farm, because it's the easiest way to get iron. Because I'm human, and we all take the path of least resistance whenever we can. >just don't make a farm bro>just ignore it broNo one will ever voluntarily gimp themselves like that. Again, it's only human.And you know, I'm not against farms at all, but I'd rather the game offer some sort of quarry system. Something a bit more involved than "well I guess I'll AFK for hours now."
>>577200632>neither do iron farms. they just use intended game mechanics in unintended ways.Yes they do. Read the entire prior conversation.
>>577199762>but you shouldn't be able to build giant rail lines without some grinding>advocates building a farm for infinite free iron forever to completely avoid said grind
>>577200771you can already build quarry systems >>577200830no they don't >>577201221building a good iron used to be a massive grind. it's not my fault Mojang made iron farms easier to build when attempting to nerf them. I've advocated for the old iron golem mechanics to come back ever since they changed because building iron farms was much more interesting
>>577202319>you can already build quarry systemsWhat current "quarry system" is good enough to allow the player to get iron in a renewable way? I sure hope you're not talking about taking out whole chunks.
>>577202675>I sure hope you're not talking about taking out whole chunks.yes I am
>>577202319>it's not my fault Mojang made iron farms easierNoone's blamed blamed you. But it still stands that iron farms are unhealthy for the game and a more intuitive implementation of gathering large amounts of iron lategame would be better for the game than exploiting hidden mechanics.
>>577202863While AFKing is no fun, taking out whole chunks isn't either.I said "a bit more involved", not "mind-numbingly boring."Alright. I'll try to explain what would, IMO, serve as an OK alternative to farms.Picrel is from a Vintage Story mod. See that formation? With the plugs inside the rock? I want that.Have some spawn naturally with a hammer nearby, so players can experiment with it.Hit the plugs with your hammer. Once the whole cube has been properly weakened, drop "rubble".Now, we need a way to "extract" ore nuggets from these rubbles. We need to crush them. So maybe we need a new workstation that will use the hammer.Once the rubble has been smashed, you get gravel + a random ore (or jack shit).Drops would need to be balanced to be fair. Not too slow to come by nor too fast.It doesn't have to be on par with an iron farm, it just has to be "fun" somewhat.It would work with any kind of stone, of course, and the player would be able to craft the plugs.Maybe some stones will have a higher chance of dropping iron. Fuck if I know.
>>577204013Fuck me. There. Hotlinking failed for some reason.
>>577203247>than exploiting hidden mechanicsyou keep saying this, but the mechanics are not some esoteric knowledge that is impossible to figure out intuitively. villagers spawn iron golems when there are enough villagers around in what is considered a village, and that process is sped up when they are in danger to try and defend the villagers. it's not complicated or unintuitive>>577204013I was talking about automated slime block quarries, not digging out chunks by hand
>>577204507>automated slime block quarriesWell at least that's more reasonable. Not something I'd personally be able to create without a guide, though.
>>577203247Villages have iron golems spawn naturally, there's a hint to them having some kind of interaction. Even when it dies a new one can randomly appear without you doing anythingHonestly iron golem spawning has a bigger hint to it existing than the end does. Absolutely nothing in the game leads you to believe the end exists, you have to figure out the ender eye recipe or cheat with the quest book. Even if you find the stronghold randomly you wont be know how do fill the portal in. If you weren't aware the end portal and deep dark portal are no different, they might/might not be a new dimension you don't know
>>577207702>cheat with the quest book
>>577204507>that is impossible to figure out intuitivelyIts not "impossible" but its very unlikely that 99% of people are ever going to figure that out without a guide. Most people never even realise iron golems can respawn let alone that there is a specific threshold let alone that scaring villagers is even a mechanic. And then knowing the very specific positions they spawn to funnel them into a death trap. I'm not saying this is impossible to figure out, its just very unlikely which is a problem when the reward is so insanely powerful and game breaking.>>577207702>Honestly iron golem spawning has a bigger hint to it existing than the end doesCollect a single ender pearl and you get a recipe for an eye of ender which directly leads you to the stronghold with a portal with eyes in the frame. You'd have more of a point with the Nether because I think lighting the Nether portal is pretty badly telegraphed even with broken portals being a thing. The fact that something as important as the Nether is poorly indicated to the player is a problem in of itself, its not a good justification for more bullshit wikifaggot mechanics.
>>577207928I mean in the fact it will show you what can be crafted as soon as you pick up both an enderpearl and blaze powder, you don't even need both on hand for it to be logged. You'll miss it too unless you see the pop up top right when you pick up the 2nd item, or if you don't browse through the crafting log anyway. So yeah unless you essentially "cheat" with the crafting recipe book to see it has the same appearance as the filled in portal ones, there's no way of you knowing about the end. Meanwhile the nether has portals littering the landscape with blocks/items in the chest to "rebuild it". There's no such hints towards the end it's one of the most unobtrusive things in minecraft, no wonder the achievement rate for the end is so low people can't find the fucking thing without 3rd party tutorials
>>577210717>Collect a single ender pearl and you get a recipe for an eye of ender which directly leads you to the stronghold with a portal with eyes in the frame.Few people will recognize it does something like that. There's so many random crafts in this game with no apparent meaning initially like the brush, firework stars, half the redstone stuff, recovery compass, end crystals(need obsidian), conduit. You'd have to be inquisitive enough to see there's a hint to the end through the enderpearl directionAlso half the time the damn thing will float through blocks that are nearby when they try it and they'll lose it. Might even break completely too instead of dropping so most players will give up on finding the end dimension
>>577212665>You'd have to be inquisitive enough to see there's a hint to the end through the enderpearl directionCompared to shit like spawn mechanics and AI pathfinding which are entirely obfuscated from the player the fact that the eyes of ender are an item deliberately placed into the game in of itself indicates it has a purpose even if its purpose is not immediately clear. All the random crafts in the game have a purpose. Using the item a couple times and seeing it float to the same direction is a pretty decent hint its pointing somewhere.I've played Minecraft since alpha for thousands of hours and even I had no idea that villagers in danger had an effect on iron golem spawn rate for the longest time until I looked into how iron farms worked. Its just not a mechanic you're ever going to figure out via normal play. Its not something you find out via curiosity, you find it out by like autism graphing spawn rates or looking though the code.
What the easiest and/or fastest way to setup a 3x3 block compacter auto crafter?
>>577215362
>>577203247>more intuitive implementation of gathering large amounts of iron lategameThe big iron veins. Just mine them. The tuff, that they also give you, is useful now as well.
>>577191974it's an auto include in any modpack i play but i've never used it in vanilla, fighting janky and annoying mobs to try and transport them is an integral vanilla gameplay mechanic that this kinda gets rid of. it's fun to stack mobs on top of each other though and it's silly holding things like foxes in your hands. perhaps if you just want it to move around chests easier you can use it for that, because that is a really nice feature.
>>577221597The tuff is the reason you should be going for them. That and calcite are too rare for how good they look
>>577230662tuff isn't the worst, mining for deepslate which i use more of than tuff also happens to get a shit ton of tuff. also, trial chambers have quite a bit of tuff. i'd still much prefer if there was a renewable way to get tuff but it's still relatively reasonably usable at large scales. calcite though, calcite is way way too rare to not be renewable in some way. and collecting it at a decent scale involves scarring up cool mountain ranges which is lame.
i wish bdubs did more solo videos instead of just doing hermitcraft for the last 9 months
etho release the new video already mate, it's been 3 weeks
Good thing about having free will is that you can mod whatever texture you find from anywhere into a block and just keep doing it. I haven't met the case where i want to replace one of these for something else already in vanilla though, maybe i can do that with a mixin. Who knows.>>577236726Calcite should be renewable on the same fashion clay is, or at least tradeable with masons.
