Vib Rib posted:It's funny, I always thought the removal of armor decay was one of the best feature changes in all of Minecraft's base mechanics. With the introduction of the anvil and being able to just slam two worn pieces together in the crafting window to repair them, it wouldn't be as bad as it used to be with 1% durability armor you couldn't actually do anything with to fix it. It's not too hard now for enchanted gear to stay 100% forever since you can self sustain the repairs with a exp farm and a villager farm for the diamond equipment.

Vib Rib posted:So let's not pretend beetroot was worth adding to the game. Well, I mean, it was in PE and is essentially just a re-textured carrot crop, so why not? ---- So Jeb has made armor values an Attribute, which means that when and how armor is added to the player can be modified: Here it is with just a normal iron chestplate, +6 armor when worn on the body, not that ground breaking. But this means that they could do things like an amulet that gives additional armor when held in the hand, the off hand or just in the inventory. It also means that map makers will eventually be able to fiddle with it and modify player armor for maps without having to worry about gear management. You could also force it to 30, 10 over the normal 20 limit, which Jeb claims makes you invincible to physical damage. Making armor into an attribute is also the reason why they decided to not add armor value degradation with damage, just not possible at the moment to have item damage neatly effect preset attribute, but it may return some day in the future. Also someone showed some of the neat effects you can create via command blocks and invisible mobs now that collision detection works again. http://gfycat.com/BrilliantTastyIaerismetalmark

OK the armour-you-don't-wear stuff is pretty interesting, I guess you could create tanky tower shields that way, and maybe it'll pave the way to more interesting combos. It'd be nice to see equipment variety affecting things like movement speed, attack speed, that sort of thing. If you could have, say, a server that has specified gear "sets" that do different stuff - heavy iron armour that slows but has massive armour values, for the paladin look - that would be pretty sweet. Right now I just want them to code in the same functionality that the Custom Stuff mod has, and I will be infinitely happy. I haven't touched the vanilla game in months, every time I load it up I just want to add in new items and blocks. If there was a way for me to do that without being stuck in 1.7, that would basically make me spend hours every day tooling around making my own perfect custom world.

Vib Rib posted:Does that happen over time, or what? I've exhausted a trade with a villager at the start of my world and then never seen that trade open again. It does happen over time, but it can be sped up by trading something else with them. Weird it took that long, though, it's usually pretty quick - is that villager out-of-active-range?

I believe over time, but it's also helped by doing their other trades, or maybe also other trades with other villagers? I'm sure there's a massive spergchart someplace detailing it, but the long and short is, yes it comes back. VanillaCheese on the server I'm on has a big villager trading post and I've tossed rotten flesh at that one cleric dude until he gives up multiple times.

Is there a way to tweak large biomes worldgen? I like the idea of large biomes, but I actually think they might be a little too large. There's no way to quickly travel ocean (boats just aren't that fast) and they become massive. The wiki says Large biomes are 16x bigger, but I'd sorta like to see what 4x and 8x look like. Edit: I had thought this existed, and was right, but only in version 1.8 and up. Tekkit, why won't you updaaaate JerikTelorian fucked around with this message at 15:53 on Sep 4, 2015 |

Just got back into Minecraft since I have a working computer now. Two things: 1: Horde of zombies, skeletons, spiders, and creepers? No problem. Then I walked backwards into a loving cactus and died. This is the essential Minecraft experience, right? 2: Went into the nether, and while mining netherack and glowstone, blocks would break and reappear in place several times. Is this a known bug or is it just acting funny for me?

That's like the Original Bug. MC-0. A bug as old as Minecraft itself, unresolved to this very day. Destroyer of servers; though it can affect a single player game. Contact Markus Persson at notch@mojang.com or @notch for assistance.

GWBBQ posted:Just got back into Minecraft since I have a working computer now. Two things: 1: Pretty much. Watch for hazards. Next time you'll take a dip in lava. 2: That happens when your tick rate is low (normally 20 per second, yours is likely no better than 10 or so when that's happening). If you're playing single-player, it's probably still trying to generate and update things in the loaded chunks - world generation is rough on computers. If you've been around long enough to have world generation already well done, then something else is eating up your resources like crazy, probably one of the bugs where you end up with ridiculous numbers of critters.

Liking what we're seeing of combat changes. It'll be truly, truly fun to see what mods play with in the new eco-system, but honestly 1.9 sounds like enough fun to mess around in all on its own. And I can get behind these armor changes. There is something maybe slightly off about falling into a dark cave full of monsters and being annoyed instead of panicked because, instead of in danger, you know you're gonna be R.I.P.

The biggest world gen changes are to The End. Honestly, it might be a really cool update but I don't think it is going to mean much to a lot of people since Minecraft is not very focused on combat, and PvP servers aren't a lot of people's thing. You're better off sticking to 1.8. At least you'll have all of the mods that are starting to catch up to 1.8.

Frobbe posted:yeah, what i really meant to say was, people using portable can play against people on PC using the win 10 version. Oh, whoa, really? So would this let you create a world in Win10 PC and have the PE users connect to it locally over wifi? Would it then be possible for the PE users to download copies of the map to their iPad, by any chance? I'd really like to use Minecraft PE for a timeline activity my students have to complete over the rest of the year, where they're supposed to be adding events and pictures from the various civilisations they study. Rather than do it physically, I was thinking of using MC and having each block be 50 years, and use different coloured ones along the line for the different civilisations they're looking at, to help get a sense of the proportion and scale of the time range they're studying. On their own, they could research and build stuff from the various civilisations/eras. But I think if I left building the line itself to them, there'd be a decent chance for error in setting it up, and even if there wasn't, it's a lot of time on something tedious and not really history-related, makes it hard to justify from an educational standpoint. Basically, I'd much more rather they spent their time researching, designing, and building rather than counting out blocks of coloured wool, if you get my drift. Also I thiiiink there'd be Indigenous Australians on there, so we'd be talking ~50,000 years, and with no coordinates in PE they'd have to count out 1,000 blocks at my proposed scale. 1:50 years seems pretty much the only one think would work well, 1:100 would be too coarse for some of the Greek stuff, honestly even 1:50 is pushing it there, but any finer than that and the line would get ridiculous. I'd be happy to do a template they could build off of on some rainy day, but I guess (until now??) you couldn't get a pre-made map in PE without jailbreaking or other tomfoolery. The local saving is important as I've used Minecraft in class before, and while the students *really* got into it, some of them couldn't resist the urge to grief. Also I'd like them to mostly be working on it outside of school, and I don't have the resources to set up a stable server, even if griefing issues didn't exist.

Would it then be possible for the PE users to download copies of the map to their iPad, by any chance? I don't think so. It is cross compatible servers, meaning that Win10 can connect to a PE server or PE can connect to a Win10 server. While chunk information is shared, those connecting to a server do not receive a full copy of the world that could be loaded in single player. You shouldn't need to jailbreak the tablet, I would think. What you'll probably need to do is make the world to be shared on one of the tablets. Take a computer and download a program called iExplorer. Once you do that plug the iPad witht he world save into the computer via USB Connector that comes with any Apple device. Make sure you don't have any apps running on the iPad, and when the time comes. -Open iExplorer and your iPad should appear, look at the left hand side of the screen and a file labeled applications will appear. -Click it. Open the file labeled Minecraft PE. -Click on Documents, then Games, then Com.Mojang and then it should say something like "minecraft world saves". -Open that file and drag all the files inside it to your desktop. Once it is complete, unplug the device. -Plug in the iPad you want to transfer the world data to and do everything you just did, but this time, drag all of the files from your desktop into the minecraftworlds file. -Unplug the iPad and navigate to wherever minecraft PE is. Open the app, the world data should be there. The thing you have to remember is that even the Java PC version of the game doesn't have neat little save files, each world is a directory full of a poo poo ton of files based on the size of the world. Also while server play may be compatible between versions now, the file format for the saved data might not be compatible as well between versions.

The other big feature to this update is they got controller support into the mobile versions. Apparently it's a bit buggy on iOS, but I've read that Android works pretty good. I really like the work Microsoft is putting into this game, everyone was worried how a "Minecraft 2" was going to work, apparently they'll just quietly produce a better product than the original and keep the same name.
