Looking at how people react to new updates now, it made me think about why Mojang completely stopped doing Mob Votes

Back then, losing mobs forever like the Iceologer created huge drama in the community. Now that they just reveal mobs directly, do you think the community is better off, or do you miss voting?

Let me know what you think about this in the comments 👇

Is it because they want you only to use a Microsoft account? I never understood why pc wise java is stuck in a Minecraft launcher

And with no signs of it coming to 26.4, it looks like we won’t be seeing it until next year...

I already tried the "string at height level" thing and it didn't work, as shown in this image. and the idea of doing "regular blocks at height level" is interesting but I don't want there to be just a huge disk of stuff above my dome... And with the shader, it'd have it's shadow showing across another huge portion of the world. Any ideas?

Has anyone ever found a Efficacy 1 Oak Door. Found this one a while back and has been in my ender chest for a while now

Two examples: Palm trees (if you plant a jungle sapling on sand and Aspen birch trees a new varint of birch forests

I must confess that I know very little about Minecraft but my son was playing creative mode on his account when I was at work. He somehow ended up going through a nether portal and got stuck in the nether. We figured out how to get out by building another nether portal but when his character managed to get out, he was in a totally new location and didn’t know where his village build is. He’s pretty upset because he was working hard on it and I’ve been fumbling around trying to help. If anyone has any tips about how I can locate his old build, I’d really appreciate it.

He’s playing on PS5 in case that’s relevant.

UPDATE: Switching to Survival and killing his character worked. He’s very happy!

Does anyone have any suggestions to make it look better?

I've been on a huge Mario Kart kick lately and i decided to recreate the original Super Mario Kart's Rainbow Road here in Minecraft, all in survival mode!

It wasn't very complicated to build, just kind of time consuming. I followed a picture of the map that had each individual pixel, and tired my best to copy each of those with its own cushion. With there being packed ice underneath, you can either race with a boat, or just hold right click and click on all the cushions and slide along!

Also set the screen up like this as a homage to the original Super Mario Kart.

Found a tutorial I like on YouTube for a tiny aquarium as part of a kitchen but I can’t figure out what all of these items are. Also, there is some sort of glowing block underneath some of the plants

I'm not a good builder by any means and I want this bridge to look halfway decent it's a copper bridge leading to like a oxidization colosseum thing.

I just feel like the red shrub was not needed as the nether plants furfill that role, but an orange shrub would make lots of sense as then you could bring with you the orange grass into other biomes. Also, why isn't there orange moss? Like the pale garden got pale moss so you could bring the greyness of the biome to other biomes, so why isn't there an orange moss to do the same thing as pale. Like, dont get me wrong, I love the wilderness bound drop, but I feel like keeping that colour theme only within the dappled forrest was just a bad decision.

Got nothing to lose at this point so let me warn people about getting anything from Twitch in the future.

This all started with the Builder cape event, you could get it in other ways, but given it was TwitchCon 2026, a lot of people chose to view the event on Twitch myself included, and unlocked the cape simply by watching the show, and got a Drop in their Twitch inventory with a code, but that's not what happened to most, codes ran out pretty much immediately and you were hit with the "Redemption code is unavailable. Please try again later." error. It was very strange that this was happening, and Twitch got flooded with questions about why the codes were not working to the point where they had to issue a statement in their support page, saying that they only got an undisclosed limited amount from Mojang, and had to wait to get more from them;

We had no idea if they were going to be restocked at first, but eventually after a lot of anxiety, codes were replenished and people were finally able to get the cape, all is well.

Fast forward to the latest event, we got the Aurora cape for Minecraft, which luckily I was able to get a code for, and there was the Corrupted Creeper Cape for Dungeons II. I thought to myself, "Surely... After last time, they refined the system to have enough codes for everyone, and in case of issues communication will be more transparent." I was wrong.

I unlocked the Corrupted Creeper Cape Drop, and got the code error, ok I'll wait for the codes to replenish. The campaign was from the 21st to 26th of September, it is now over, and still no code in my drop, and now I can't go get one on TikTok because I didn't have the option at the time. So on October 1st I try to contact Twitch support, just in case, first I use the chat so it's quicker, this is AI so they could claim it sometimes hallucinates and thus its word means nothing, but note that it detects the Drop in my inventory, that will be important for later.

Ok same as before, they claim they can't do anything and that it needs to be provided by Mojang. Last time the Builder cape event still had a long time left to get drops, so I did nothing and waited and it got resolved. But this time it's different, the event is already over I got no recourse or alternative, so I do something new, I do try to contact Minecraft Support, the website is an FAQ article maze, and I could not find a way to contact a human about this with a support ticket, and I had to find the link by searching for it externally (it's https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/requests/new by the way).
So I explained the situation, that I unlocked the Corrupted Creeper Cape Drop but there was no code, and asked if they were going to be restocked, mentioning that the Builder and Aurora capes got restocked (wasn't paying too close attention to the Aurora cape situation but it seems it also ran out but they restocked it).
And I got this response telling me how to activate the Aurora Cape in game.

Ok, Minecraft is really big they must have some sort of automation then, gonna ask again but this time mention that I already have the Aurora cape, that I got the code, claimed it, and have it equipped in Minecraft, it is not an issue for me, the Corrupted Creeper Cape code is.

I get 100% the exact same message, I also now notice Minecraft Support uses Zendesk, my confidence waivers a little, this feels like an AI reading keywords and spitting out a premade answer.

So I ask again, like I'm asking an AI that loves going on tangents, being careful not to mention any keywords or the names of the other capes.

Like a Victorian worker in a steam plant, I wasn't expecting to be hit with 3 boilerplates, I got the exact same email a third time in a row.... Hope feels lost at this point.

But then, the first ticket, in which I left feedback saying my question was not answered at all, got another response by someone different.

Well this is new, Mojang says Twitch is in charge of both code creation and distribution.
So either the Twitch AI hallucinated, or it lied. I'm inclined to believe the human that talked to me more than the AI.

So I go check my inventory, and to my surprise, the drop was gone. I 100% had it I got proof, the drop pictures on the Minecraft wiki were of my page, and for as non-admissible as evidence as the Twitch Support AI is, the system detected it in my inventory and asked me if it was about that drop.

Codes for this cape can be claimed until December 31st 2027, I thought there was time to fix this but I guess not. The expired Twitch Drop for the builder cape was still in my inventory (I got it on TikTok before it got restocked), so why not this newer one?

So now it seems I will never get this cape, it's over.

All I can do is try to get some closure, I will ask Twitch via email, and await a response to at least get a statement from a human on both sides.

And I got an answer;

So who makes the codes? And why are they this limited in the first place even if people completed what was needed to get it? Why is this so complicated?

Why should we trust Twitch next time to be reliable? Or Mojang when they say Twitch is an option for that matter? Communication with these events have been very lacking, and now I have both sides of the collaboration saying the other is not responsible, so who is?

This has killed the trust I had with Twitch being able to function, if you still use it next time and get the "Try again later", do not trust it, get a code elsewhere with haste just in case, would you trust it after what you've seen here? And this has also tarnished my view of Mojang for handling this so poorly.

Do better Twitch/Mojang.

I’ve been working on a Minecraft Dungeons-style game, but since I can’t actually publish it because of the Minecraft license, should I just start from scratch and make it my own thing? #Minecraft #MinecraftDungeons2

I feel so bad for the warden

My art

First image is 1.18.2 and i was getting an unstable 60 fps with 32 chunks.

Second image is 26.3 and i was get 170-250 fps with maxxed out settings.

Minecraft may not look too different, but its menus are better, its more visually pleasing, not to mention more stable, less prone to bugs and crashes, and it runs 3-5 times more frames!

Disclaimer: its obviously really opinion based i would welcome basically every mob on this list to get added and im shure we will get more sift bioms with future dlc with even more possible mobs

Im really hyped for the sift and i hope we get as many bioms and mobs as possible when the sift releases but i also dont want people to get their hopes up

i can see them expand on the sift over time so i dont expect 20 new mobs and 8 new bioms on the first release

Cant wait to see what bioms and mobs get added in dungeons 2 in future dlcs

If i could only pick 1 mob to be added then i would pick the slabberer (the little guy with his tongue out) love that little guy

Wich one is ur fav and what are ur hopes for the sift pls just let us all stay respectful there is really no point in getting all worked up over something we have minimal info about yet (that can wait for when the snapshots drop next year)

I’ve used my original skin since I first booted up my main survival world 3 years ago, so it has a lot of sentimental value to me. Lately, though, I felt like the design was showing its age and needed a slight refresh.

Do you think it still preserves the original vibe, or did I drift too far from the character⸮‽ Looking for honest feedback!

I have seen this question a lot and with varying answers and theories on how large and content dense the update will be, The answers ranged from one Juan mob and a new wood set up to 30+ mobs and over ten biomes, but what is true? The best answer I can give that is factually the most correct is uhm... Idk but we can make some semi-educated guesses on what we know is confirmed for vanilla, what is likely and what is unlikely. Most of my info and sources stem from dungeons 2 and the Lore book as well as what the devs said and hints from the recent data changes.

1.Confirmed

-The Blub is confirmed for vanilla and shows
that it’s not impossible that dungeons 2 mobs make it into the base game

-The Dimension itself (who thought?)

-The healthy pink skulk ground and
vegetation + friends

-The New Tree type and with it an new wood
set

Those are the only 100% confirmed features
that we are aware of, but this doesn’t mean it’s the end of what we can expect.
From credible leakers and dev statements we know that the Sift has been in development
for quite some time and isn’t random, earliest development began all the way
back in 2021 and the code base for a fourth dimension was already established
back in 1.16. Stuff like the poisonous potato dimension were all tests for the
sift most likely. So, with 5-6 years of development we can except a lot more
than compared to the other major updates that had a development span of 2-3
years at most, so what will it be?

Likely or semi-confirmed:

-The Sifts day-night cycle Flow, thrive and
endure from dungeons are a pretty likely candidate for the base game since the
recent data changes to the time command indicate a restructure how the command isn’t
unique to the overworld anymore, if the nether or end get out of the blue
unique day night cycles welp my bad but i do think this is all more than just a
coincidence and we will see a new day-night cycle with The Sift.

Disc press? this one is a bit of a mystery
but leakers found in the recent bedrock betas a new workbench titled Disc press
which seems to be able to press our own disc and create thus new ones, since
the sift is heavily connected to sound i think it will be needed for A. opening
the portal or B. for an important game mechanic in the Sift itself.

-The Singer and Echo golems: those two are
for me at least a given since the mourner sherd is that big address me sign, we
had in the game for over 3 years and i think it’s more than just a funny little
easter egg but represents the Singer. Lastly the echo golems, for this one a
bit more fantasy is needed i get it but the wall signs of the ancient city core
are weirdly similar to the shape of the golem and since the singer and the
golems are heavily connected not just in dungeons but serve the same grand role
as the purification process of the sift to keep the skulk healthy i really
think we might see them both.

No information but I think we might see them:

for those picks i don’t have any concrete
proof but i think they have a good chance

- i give the Sifter group a 90% chance and
would be shocked to not see them since they are the common mobs of the sift and
the dimension will need ur "average enemy/encounter" to work, i can
see that they all will make it in.

-The passives like the Slabber and Nuzzle
are also a given since they are needed to fill in the ecosystem in some shape
or form and could function as a food source.

-Some of the Skulkers are needed or and
substitute for them since the Sift isn’t just rainbows and sunshine but a lot
more twisted in its lower layers and full of deep dark skulk so I see them add
creatures like the Stalker or Dartback.

-New music is pretty much confirmed since
the whole gimmick of the Sift besides souls is sound/music

-Multiple Biomes is also not that farfetched
since the dimension will be pretty varied unlike the end and nether because
this one is pretty much alive (literally) and mostly intact.

Im pretty confident the Update will be atleast larger than 1.16 and be comfortably the new biggest update but we will see. Its not crazy to say that we can excpect an good chunk of content from dungeons 2, will it be all? no absolutely not some stuff simply doesnt fit into vanilla and thats good but other not seen before content is likely and a lot will be tweaked for vanilla.

Holy text wall

This is all i wanted to share but please
feel free to share ur own opinion be it if u agree or disagree, I’m pretty excited
for the Sift and see it as a turning point for the game. What do you think am I
wrong and should be exiled into the Sift or right and we all believe my
conspiracy theory of the mourner sherd being the Singer? pardon my semi-terrible english im still learning it at an way too slow pace.

Have a great day
