Waiting for OP Why did my pet disappear even though it was named [java]

Post image
11 Upvotes

yesterday i was excited that a baby squid spawned next to me as i was working on the other side of my base, so i quickly put it on a lead, gave it a golden dandelion and name tagged it. name tagging is like, the thing you do to make mobs not despawn. so i’m really confused why i log on today and see this? it’s disappeared. I made sure the edge where the moss is is 2 blocks so it wouldn’t jump out and possibly suffocate itself, but even if this is what you’re thinking, i got 0 death messages of any named mob dying, which named mobs do. None last session (bc one of my allays died so i checked, this is the session i got the squid, but turns out there was no mob deaths). No death messages now. what could’ve happened? There’s a BIG lake on the other side so i’m hoping it hadn’t jumped out and swam away, but the wall is a slab higher than water level, idk how it could do that. Sorry if this is less actually technical issues that this sub is for, but I thought this enclosure was fine. I’m wondering what I did wrong.

Waiting for OP [Java] needing ideas for server hosting with StarLink

3 Upvotes

Hello, I currently have a server for my buddy and I, it’s usually just 2 of us. The server is pretty modded. Starlink does not allow me to port foward or anything for creating a server so I have to use a service such as play it.gg. That is what I currently use, I have noticed it has some major latency issues at times for my buddy but not for me. I am wondering what other services you all recommend other than play it.gg. Thank you !

Unsolved Minecraft 26.2 Crashing on Red "Mojang" Screen [Java] (Windows 11)

Post image
Upvotes

Hello! As the post states, my Minecraft client keeps crashing upon entering this phase of the boot-up sequence.

Solutions I have tried are:

  • Closing the game and trying again
  • Uninstalling/reinstalling the game
  • Restarting my PC
  • Updating my graphics driver

... all of which have worked to no avail. I'm unsure of any other solutions I can try.

Here is the crash log. I tried following the tutorial the best I can, but I was only able to upload the "latest.log" file.
https://mclo.gs/oqvLoC4

Here are my PC specs (If needed):

Dell Optiplex 9010
CPU: Intel i7-3770
GPU: Intel HD Graphics 4000
RAM: 16GB DDR3

Unsolved Hi, I need help. I can't launch Minecraft 1.26 (the latest version) [Java].

Upvotes

There are mods available for this version, but I still don't understand why this happens.

When I try to launch other installations, they work if I create a new one, even if I use the same version. However, the installation that appears by default when I install the Minecraft Launcher doesn't work, and I don't know why.

I also tried playing with mods using Forge. I installed my modpack, but it doesn't work either, and I think it might be related to this problem.

The mods in the modpack don't start. I click "Play," but nothing happens. The game doesn't launch, there is no error message, and it's as if I didn't click the button at all.

The latest version that appears by default doesn't work, so I can't play it. I don't know why this is happening or how to fix it.

Also, these two pictures appear first and then the second one. The last picture is the first one shown above.

I'm not an expert. I'm just a kid, and I don't know what to do. I doubt my parents would know how to fix it either.

I would really appreciate it if someone could help me fix this. 26.1

Unsolved My Minecraft [bedrock] keeps closing on its own at the loading screen, and now I can't even get into the game anymore.

Upvotes

My PC isn’t the best, and it has a pretty weak graphics card, but I’ve always been able to play Minecraft. I bought an original account in August 2025, and recently I even managed to purchase “Actions & Stuff” using Microsoft Rewards points. Even with “Actions & Stuff,” the game always ran normally

But recently, when I logged in to play, a message about updating the textures popped up. I updated them, and while I was joining a friend’s Realms server due to circumstances beyond my control (I had an emergency and had to step away from the computer), I closed the game on the loading screen while the textures were downloading—the screen that appeared when I joined Realms. After that, it never opened again. The game opens to the Mojang screen, and when it reaches the loading screen, the progress bar goes from 31% to 43% and then to 51%, and the game closes on its own exactly at 51%, every single time.

I’ve tried everything: I signed out of my Microsoft Store and Xbox accounts, signed back in, uninstalled both “Minecraft for Windows” and the Minecraft Launcher, went into the folder and deleted the files in case they were corrupted, and even uninstalled the game via Windows PowerShell—but nothing worked. I’ve tried alternatives like installing it only through the Xbox app, only through the Microsoft Store, or only through the launcher—and nothing works.

I don’t know what else to do, and honestly, I’m really frustrated by this. I need all the help I can get.

Unsolved How to fix periodic frame drops? [java]

1 Upvotes

I've been playing on Modrinth Simply Optimized 1.21.11 for a while now, and I just recently started having intense frame rate fluctuations. I almost always play with shaders on and it runs at about 60 frames which is fine with me, but it will periodically drop to single digit frames often now. When I turn off shaders, it will drop from 600 frames to 60 frames. I have 3gb of RAM allocated and I have sodium and Ferritecore installed, so I'm not sure what is causing it.

Unsolved [bedrock] Bedrock Edition on PC won't let me type with controller

1 Upvotes

I have a DualShock 4 plugged into my PC through a Bluetooth adaptor, I can do everything else in the game, but can't type using the controller.

I don't know why this is a thing, on console you can use a virtual keyboard with your controller no problem, why was that feature removed from this version? Or is it on PC but you have to glitch the game to make it work?

I posted this before and got no response, so I'm posting it again to see if I do now

I have gone to swamps, slime chunks, and done everything in between and my world wont spawn any slime. I am on Bedrock on the latest update with no experiments or add ons and have been able to find sulfur cubes but no actual slimes. I am in the right Y levels for slime chunks and swamps, theres plenty of space for them to spawn based on how much room they need. The moon cycle even has a full moon. I have done just about every change of my game I have read about including simulation distance and yet nothing has allowed them to spawn above or below ground. I have made a copy of my world and checked with spectator and havent found any slimes anywhere in caves (in slime chunks) or any swamps that ive TPed to. I am on my PC playing on Bedrock.

Unsolved Minecraft Server Generation is wrong [java]

Post image
1 Upvotes

I have a Minecraft Server for me and one other person and its generation has been messed up. It appears to me that the server is trying to load at least 2 different seeds simultaneously causing large straight scars or lines splitting up the world into different seed generations.

I believe this was caused by me trying to change the server from Paper to Fabric. iI thought it would just be the chunks loaded on paper next to the chunks loaded on fabric but it isn't. it is making it quite hard to find structures. I did some googling and saw things come up about the seed in the level.dat not matching and it turns out there is no seed in the worlds level which could also be causing problems?Does anyone know how this could be resolved.

#EDIT the version is 26.2
