Feel old yet?

Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Mojang Studios and Blackbird Interactive have officially announced the cessation of development for Minecraft Legends, a unique action-strategy spin-off released on Apr. 18, 2023. Despite continuous efforts to address issues and engage the community with updates, Legends failed to captivate players.

New speedrun world records for Java Minecraft don't happen very often nowadays so figured I'd post it for those interested

I made a relatively small fabric pack (about 100 mods, which I think is small by today's standard?). Something that bugs me is that due to mod dependencies, the pack has like 5 or 6 mods just dedicated to configs (Forge Config API Port, YetAnotherConfigLib, Cloth Config, owo lib, etc).

I know why this is the case (relevant xkcd that everyone has probably already seen) but it's annoying nonetheless.

I set kbin.social as my world seed and it started me off in an old growth spruce taiga with a Grove north of spawn. Also the stony shore south of the old growth taiga has an exposed lush caves. And deep dark.

It took about two weeks but I finally got the Rare blue Axolotl.

Someone's investigation (and original reddit thread):

> > > Downloaded a few versions of "mystical beasts", extracted them, and ran commands like diff -urN mystical-beasts_Beta_Client_Fabric_1.20.1/ mystical-beasts_Release_Server_Fabric_1.16.5. > > > > They came up... completely identical! Curse disallows uploading jars with the same hash but it looks like each one contains some amount of random crap after the zip footer; always an exact number of kilobytes too (mystical-beasts_Release_Client_Fabric_1.20.1 contains exactly 17 kilobytes of garbage data appended to the file, Server_Fabric_1.16.5 contains exactly 21kb, etc) What's also funny is that the mods.toml - yes, it's actually a Forge mod - contained within all the jars i looked at claims to exclusively support 1.19.4. > > > > The mod itself is an MCreator mod with assorted random shit. There's a dimension but nothing in it afaik. It adds polished_blackstone_brick_wall to minecraft:overworld_carver_replaceables. There's a recipe for crafting iron blocks into rooted dirt. You get an advancement called "Advancemnts" [sic] when you go to a beach. There's a weird "procedure" (mcreator's bizarre programming language) but I don't think anything calls it? It also contains a shitton of ripped assets from minecraft (under assets/examplemod/textures/block/) probably to pad the filesize more. > > > > I took a cursory glance with a decompiler and didn't find anything obviously malicious. > ... > Endless Trash, Everywhere, Forever, all powered by AI! AI is the future :) > >

I'm thinking to make one because the food mod requires milk, so I think to make one, but is it possible?

The great thing about minecraft is being able to choose which version to play on. maybe you like 1.20 where they added Camels and bamboo wood, or maybe you prefer 1.19 where servers had more independence. Or maybe you are old school and prefer your poppies being called roses and your spiders not being able to jump two blocks high.

There's this one and [email protected] this one seems to be a smaller one and wouldn't it be good to create communities that run together instead of separate into multiple smaller ones that make no sense and get less traffic?

Permanently Exhausted Pigeons [Semi-Vanilla] [SMP] {Mature 18+} {Java} {Whitelisted} {Community} {1.20.1} {Survival}

Server Name: Permanently Exhausted Pigeons

Server Location: United States - East Coast

Website: https://pep.gg/

Server Address: mc.pep.gg

Version: 1.20.1

Game Play Type/s: [SMP]

Plugins: [Dynmap] [EssentialsX] [CoreProtect]

Owners: Oxxzyn & OtterlyWasted Description: TD;DC (too drunk, don't care)

We're not early birds or night owls, we're some kind of permanently exhausted pigeons. We play games, drink, laugh, post memes, rage, drink again, cry a little, and sometimes crash the server. About Us

“We are a small but dedicated group of social gamers…”

Fuck that nonsense. We’re middle aged+ adults with jobs, responsibilities, and bills. We are permanently exhausted (and drunk). Somewhere in there, we try to find time to play video games. We don’t have time for that über l33t top 500 raid boss smokin' bullshit (not that it wouldn’t be cool). Rather, at the end of long days, and sometimes on the weekend – we spend our time poking mindlessly at games while trying to reclaim energy, sobriety, and hope to face the coming Monday.

Are you also a middle-aged adult despairing at your responsibilities, who likes to play video games? (Non-alcoholics need not apply.\*) Then feel free to join us.

``` ((Disclaimer, we say some wild things. If you enjoy the written copy and match or don’t match specific blatantly hilarious criteria feel free to join. We’re just pigeons saying outrageous things on the internet.))

About Our Server

Ok. Here’s the deal. We’re old. We have jobs. We like booze. We’ve also set up a Minecraft server. Go figure right? /s

What’s so special about our server? Well, other than the aforementioned details, not much. Is this selling it for you? No? What’s Special About It?

Alright, fine. We’ll give you more information. Happy now? We launched our first Minecraft season on March 1st, 2020 - The “COVID Times”. Season one lasted from March 1st, 2020 through June 26th, 2021. We poured our hearts and souls into that first season as an escape from the raging wildfire that was the pandemic. Breaking blocks while simultaneously cracking open beers and posting memes on our Discord.

Since that time we have launched numerous additional seasons, typically on a new major update on Minecraft. Our main server is a semi-vanilla survival server. We run some datapacks for convenience sake in a multiplayer environment but otherwise treat the server like vanilla.

We have a strong group of regulars. Each season brings both familiar and new faces. We're neither large or too small, rather just the right amount for that small community feel with enough liveliness for antics. Groups of us focus on building, others on exploring. There is a community shopping district. We play mini-games. All your usual Minecraft server antics - Just while permanently exhausted.

Our server is low-key, chill-the-fuck-out, “I’ll get back to building that some time next week”. Age Requirement & Whitelisting Information

The server is 18+ at minimum - there will be cussing and antics involved. We’re looking to blow off steam from our days, and since misery loves company why not do it with fellow exhausted adults?

We are a whitelisted server. No interviews or other bullshit, just a simple form followed by a usually quick approval. Interested In Joining? Come Expand The Flock!

More details about the server and whitelisting information is available - RIGHT HERE Still want more? Alright!

``` Fresh world for 1.20 as of June 12th, 2023

If this decides to pop-off who are going to be moderators? I have a few things to say about this.

1. We should especially watch the moderators that come over from moderating r/Minecraft if they come over.

2. There is one moderator (in r/Minecraft, still on the team) that should not be allowed to moderate at all because of their actions.

3. If yall need help moderating, I can help. Don’t worry if not, I understand that people shouldn’t just trust anyone on the internet.

For the uninitiated, Everafters SMP is both a invite-only fantasy-themed academical Minecraft server and an online video series whose premise somehow takes inspiration from the School of Good and Evil book series from the late 2010s, even as evidenced in this opening cinematic, posted by bumbyJake less than 18 hours ago.

Included within the cast is Shubble of Empires SMP fame, and magicSINGS of former Outsiders SMP fame.

> If all the mods available for version 1.19 are also available for version 1.20, is it possible to update the server while keeping data? If so, how?

I am in the process of preparing our server world for migration to 1.20 and thought I would share my experience with MCA Selector so far. A youtube video from Pixelriffs a few years ago pointed me in this direction.

Some things to note about MCA Selector U/I which confused me a bit when I first used the app.

• Left Mouse button selects chunks
• Middle button is used to grip and move the map
• Right button deselects the chunk

I used a 1 minute rule to select chunks for deletion. This should avoid removing anything of importance to my players. Some smoothing must done manually with such a tight time rule.

Finally, Backup, Backup and Backup again. Just in case.

Hello, I'm ovis. I've been an avid player of Minecraft for close to 10 years.

Hi, I'm Elrac. I play a lot of Minecraft, mostly modded at this point. Currently I'm playing the Vault Hunters mod pack. Also, I happened to create this magazine. I can see that a little over 200 people have subscribed to it, and I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for what we should do to get this community going?

\#Minecraft

MCC Pride 23 is today. Of you haven't seen an MCC before, it's 40 streamers in 10 teams of 2. They play mini games for points, and the top two teams play a game called Dodgebolt to determine the winner. Each player streams independently so watchers get a unique perspective on the tournament. This specific event is to celebrate pride month, so it is a little different from the standard MCC events. This event will be raising money for the Trevor Project.

Anyone playing in Minecraft version 1.20 yet? What are your thoughts?
