General Discussion

[torn pond]

it isn't consistently smooth anyway.

at the right settings, it was smooth 60 at 24 chunks.

and at the wrong settings, it's really bad now.

33% resolution works really well on console, and that by itself is a huge performance boost to the point where even a lot of point lights run well.

[tropic coral]

33% resolution is lame

[half depot]

The problem is series s runs the game at 4K

Which it shouldn't

1080p or 1440p would be just fine

[torn pond]

it's terrible on PC, but great on console. There is a noticable difference on things far away but it isn't that much.

[tropic coral]

i thought series s didn't support 4k

[half depot]

It doesn't

But mojang locked all the current gen consoles to a 4K render resolution regardless

[torn pond]

why?!

[half depot]

great question

[elfin flower]

depends the definition but i heard alot from chinese people about netease having really bad performance issues and found out that bedrock we have or the international one is miles better than netease ver.

Apparently this is more of phone issues on netease's bedrock, which didn't really have any performance issues on PC or development platform for chinese people.

They described the exact same issue ive having with HAL being re-enabled on one specific android build which kinda matches up.

Stuttering pretty bad, terrible performance, sometimes graphical glitches, crashes in mid-game, etc.

there's also other issues that made people switch aswell probably due to sketchy practices that netease doing, but it's there.

[tribal torrent]

yeah & the only way to change it is in system video settings

also the playstation preview has been having an unlocked framerate lately, which has been entirely been great except for screen tearing when it goes above 60

no way to fix that one unfortunately

butttt i havent played this recent preview actually so

ig ill check it out in a bit

[half depot]

heres what im noticing right. a custom VV config is way more noticeable that VV is on compared to vanilla. I know the point of the default VV pack is to be as close to vanilla as possible but i think something within the color grading should maybe change to be more noticeable

ill just throw in default vv too

[limber ledge]

I think they haven't invested too much to the caves for VV

They firstly focused on biomes

I really hope VV will get new feature updates to add more things in the future, just like that caves.

[hasty grotto]

i hope we get better ambient occlusion

and dont end up in some situation where bedrock VV and java VV look too different

[elfin flower]

@shadow mason Mojang can't do anything about netease anyways, hell it's not their thing but it's HAL causing issues. obviously we have RD so they probably doesn't bother.

also fool i have notification logs always on in case i get ghost pinged lmao.

[limber ledge]

Fun fact: it's already started to look different... On Java we can change the cloud's distance without enabling the VV since it is not out on that yet, while on Bedrock we must enable the VV to change the cloud's distance. Plus, Java now has a new fog with the upcoming drop and it looks a little bit different from the Bedrock's fog?

[shadow mason]

I was misinterpreting your message, hence why I deleted it afterwards. I assume you were referring to NetEase generally further optimizing when it comes to the performance.

[hasty grotto]

I'm still hoping that they'll bring over those changes eventually
-# eventually... 😔

[elfin flower]

While the performance caused by HAL renderer, it's probably not it for most chinese people.

Again, netease being netease, they'll just pull EA any games they do, including minecraft aswell. so it makes sense why chinese people are moving away from netease and rather play on regular bedrock instead.

[hasty grotto]

i remember years ago someone made a gist or github readme complaining about netease's practices

apparently they made some sketchy fork of forge for their version of java edition

[elfin flower]

Netease doing shady practices is not just chinese exclusive. it's happened to any games that they made aswell

so it's no surprise people leave them

[elfin flower]

They do, also uses their own mods that cannot be removed aswell. — obviously you know what this is.

[shadow mason]

I was not aware of that, interesting to hear, are there really that many Chinese moving away from NetEase?

[hasty grotto]

uhhh for some reason they wiped the repo

[shadow mason]

That sounds quite dangerous, what do they specifically do?

[hasty grotto]

last version before they changed it to just say "Empty"
its really old now

[elfin flower]

your basic companies what would they do — milk the hell outta it, pay to win everywhere, the game UI is literally glued to the app so you can't really play LAN at all, absolutely flashy skins, and so on. when you launch the app itself, you're already get slapped with those things.

hell some people said that this is way worse than marketplace we have now.

Netease also allows stolen contents aswell so not really you can do anything about it if it's get stolen

slapped it on paywall etc they would not care.

[shadow mason]

oh christ

[elfin flower]

hell there's few addons from us that chinese people stole, slap it on netease, pull up being paywalled, while us can't do anything because well, it's chinese.

DMCA does not work in there.

and its shows up the moment you launch the "app" itself so yeah

[elfin flower]

Yeah, we have a few chinese discord servers about nornal bedrock for around 5k-10k, unfortunately can't join them since we need some apps like QQ or WeChat to get invite, from what most chinese people told me from the DM, those are bedrock only servers. no netease whatsoever.

[shadow mason]

Thats huge oh god!

[elfin flower]

i highly doubt mojang would do anything about it either since this is just netease thing.

any netease products is just all cash grab regardless if it was chinese or not.

[edgy abyss]

My takeaway with chinese mc was kind of how people treat (or more so used to treat) java and bedrock in the west, in a way that chinese Minecraft is just a ripoff of the original and therefor better minecraft. The ones you see all the big youtubers playing, thats why it obviously has to be better. Same thing happened for bedrock and java where bedrock was always treated as something lower of quality than java because of the same reasons.

But there is also a lot of fair critic with the chinese version, like the massive amounts of paywalls and copyright issues. However the chinese version does have a lot of features that we would wish to have and does a lot of things much better than "normal" bedrock, which I believe is often swept under the rug and not considered at all.

[hasty grotto]

here polymesh is cursed while mc china lets you use fbx models

[half depot]

Omg. This... this is so bad

Reflection range on series S for VV is so painfully low

This has to be changed before release 😭. On ultra reflections and it doesn't even reflect the TOPS of trees

Why... why does mobile have better reflections

Oh I meant to put this in graphics

Oops

[eternal shoal]

we need ssao (hbao or gtao)

[celest sluice]

too late. 1.21.100 here we come

[half depot]

😔

I know the series S isn't an amazing console but like...

[celest sluice]

🫂

[half depot]

Doom the dark ages runs on this thing flawlessly

There's no reason the SSR should be capped like that

Especially when mobile is running it at better quality

[torn pond]

It's still weird that they reduced the series S VV render distance to 16 when it was fine at 24.

It's like they don't want players to use VV

[half depot]

Idk. I'm getting a very smooth 60 at high-ultra at 50% res and 16 rd

[torn pond]

It was smooth 60fps at max settings and 33% resolution.

In latest release

[half depot]

But these reflections are straight buns

Why is it like this 😭

I'm gonna test on 1.21.80 cuz this is in 1.21.90

[torn pond]

VV clearly is in need of a lot of optimization if this is all they can do on a current gen console

[half depot]

It doesn't make sense that mobile seems to have a higher quality preset then series s

That's absurd

[torn pond]

yeah, it's like they accidentally left the last gen settings on for current gen for some reason.

[half depot]

That's what it looks like to me

[torn pond]

i really hope that's all it is, and they didn't make it this much worse intentionally...

[half depot]

Praying they adjust this for the release

[torn pond]

same

[half depot]

Like this is not good 😭

We have nice lighting and the entire experience is taken away from these weird cutoff reflections

[torn pond]

yeah

[half depot]

It should be set to where pc is rn tbh. Pc is near perfect

[torn pond]

1.21.80 is perfect

i think

[half depot]

Here's pc btw

Its like near perfect

[torn pond]

i'm trying it on 1.21.80 on series S and it looks fine there

plus i have everything on ultra, 24 chunks render distance

and am getting smooth 60fps

[half depot]

So they messed up the configs in 1.21.90

[torn pond]

mojang what are you doing, why did you break it for 1.21.90

this really needs to be fixed before VV releases in this state...

[celest sluice]

they ain't changing it now 😭

hotfix at best

[half depot]

I don't see why the consoles can't use the pc presets tbh

[torn pond]

series S in 1.21.80

everything except volumetric fog and resolution is at max

[half depot]

Yea that's right where it should be 😭

[torn pond]

and it runs smooth.

(besides the xbox UI lag which they really need to fix)

i don't see any reason why they reduced the settings for 1.21.90 when it clearly worked well.

[half depot]

Yea .80 is fine

Sucks cuz .90 looks so much better

[torn pond]

yeah. .90 has some great VV improvements but for whatever reason they broke the series S settings.

[half depot]

Again as mentioned this thing runs doom the dark ages at what looks to be medium ish settings at a locked 60 😭

You're telling me the funny block game with no raytraced indirect lighting can't do that?

😭

[torn pond]

yeah, it really doesn't make sense.
i mean, okay, Minecraft is unique in that everything is very breakable and you can place stuff and whatever.

but even then, this is a game that could run on the Xbox 360.

[half depot]

NOOO ID SOFTWARE PATCHED THE EXPLOIT TO GET AN FPS COUNTER ON CONSOLE. I was gonna prove my point 😔

[torn pond]

Whye :<

[half depot]

If you played doom through gamepass on windows it would carry over your ui settings (this included if you enabled performance metrics)

They pushed an update yesterday and no more performance metrics on console 😔

Unless I need to launch it on pc and set it up again

[torn pond]

I really wish console games just had the same settings as PC games.

[half depot]

Same

[torn pond]

Minecraft does, for the most part, so it's not a rule that they aren't allowed to do it

Minecraft has probably the best video settings menu i've seen in a console game

you can select your framerate (still upset they removed the options below 30fps), you can select your render distance, disable smooth lighting, etc.

everything you have on PC bedrock is on console bedrock i think?

[half depot]

enable raytracing

Kidding thag option is there just grey

Yea the settings menu is identical on all platforms

[torn pond]

tbh they should.

even if it wouldn't run well, the option should be there.

if it runs terribly, you can still take screenshots

screenshots don't care about framerates

[half depot]

Series S probably not but series X definitely should

[torn pond]

yeah. (but i would like it on series S still :< )

VV is nice, but it lacks stuff like stained glass affecting light colour, and coloured lights in general besides point lights.

also, would it be possible for Mojang to add coloured stained glass shadows with VV?

or is the way it works done in a way where that'd be impossible or have a major performance impact

(like, following the same rules as other shadows do right now, where it's only the global light source, and point lights if they're enabled)

[half depot]

Yea it's entirely doable. But it requires different calculations and what not and they haven't set up all the back end upgrades for the shadowmap to do so

[torn pond]

It would be really nice so hopefully they do that at some point

[half depot]

Yea I hope they do eventually

A bit sad it's not gonna release with the feature

[torn pond]

yeah :<

[torn pond]

I really hope they actually meant it when they said that VV will keep improving based on feedback, and it isn't just "add it and then forget about it, maybe do occasional small tweaks".

[half depot]

There's still so much to be done with VV

I feel they've only scratched the surface

Plus currently all the features added for the release version have to be on all platforms

They can do some platform specific stuff later too like, the series consoles, PS5 and PC potentially getting updated or new effects that mobile can't handle

(Same with the last gen tech)

Id love more upscaler support

[eternal shoal]

Oh no

[eternal shoal]

It looks terrible

[cloud moon]

fortnite?

[torn pond]

i hope they add the option to change cloud distance on bedrock as this just looks weird

[peak idol]

Oh hell nah bro

I'd prefer just install the hotfixes instead of waiting a whole set of previews

[limber ledge]

But not everyone is like you. Lots of people complains the rushed updates...

[celest sluice]

nothing stopping them from just not using VV

[peak idol]

But not everyone is like you or whoever said they should delay it, most people is not even waiting for that "VV"
there's other people who's waiting for new scripting APIS or anything else.

[rough path]

Not really sure what scripting has to do with VV?

[peak idol]

Nothing. I'm talking about delaying the preview because there's "VV" bugs.

Never said vv has to do something with scripting

[rough path]

More confused, Pluginer never said to delay the preview.

[peak idol]

Idk if they can just take a feature of the previews and simply don't put it in the release but whatever is the case, as silicon said nothing is forcing them to use VV

[rough path]

Idk if they can just take a feature of the previews and simply don't put it in the release
VV has been like that for the longest time. Alongside pausing and hardcore to give a few example. As well as OreUI screens.

[tribal torrent]

minecraft racing confirmed

[muted widget]

i want to buy sonic racing crossworlds so bad

[cloud moon]

You only get the characters if you buy the deluxe edition

Which is $90

Sega tryin to be nintendo so bad 😭

[torn pond]

well, i'm sure i'll have a great time playing it in like 2 years when the price drops significantly

[clever gale]

anyone knows if vv works in bds servers?

[heady sable]

VV works client side, so yes

[muted widget]

i was planning to buy this game anyway, looks cool to me and i'm a sonic fan

[fringe island]

When trying to join two custom tools with enchantments this happens

[west lantern]

I've seen this happen with vanilla tools as well, it's been a bug for a whiiiiile now

[fringe island]

I think this bug doesn't happen anymore with vanilla, if it does it's possibly something a little difficult because I've never seen it.

[south bay]

have you tried swapping them?

it happes sometimes to me with vanilla items

[fringe island]

Yea

But I noticed that this doesn't happen with books and if one of the tools is damaged

This bug only happens if both are at maximum durability

[torn pond]

So, what do you think we'll get next, 1.21.90.29, 1.21.90.30 or 1.21.100.20 ?

[willow harness]

1.22.30.50 , reason : I said so :>

Anyone else having this issue on learn.microsoft.com? I'm trying to read up on the changes in 1.21.90

[random karma]

maaaybe was down briefly

[fluid wadi]

Probably an issue with my connection, because direct links to a page work fine but I can't browse

Yeah, not happening anymore. That was weird

[peak idol]

1.21.90?

Stable?

I think that hasn't released yet

we are in 1.21.84

[fluid wadi]

Yes, I know. I was reading about the changes before it releases in the documentation

[worldly jackal]

is 1.21.90 being released tomorrow or next week?

[torn pond]

either next week or in 2 weeks, i'd say in 2 weeks is most likely.

and that's assuming tomorrow's preview is for 1.21.100

which it probably will be

last week's preview was still for 1.21.90, and i don't think they can get the update from the last preview to release that quickly.

[worldly jackal]

ohh, okay

[tribal torrent]

guys wym its going to be 1.21.90.29

[marble karma]

Has there been a 1.21.21.21

[hoary forge]

Nope sadly

[torn pond]

idk if there even could be one?

1.21 - big release
1.21.20 - smaller update
1.21.21 - hotfix
1.21.21.20 - the first preview for a hotfix
1.21.21.21 - the second preview for a hotfix

so, you'd need a hotfix which gets 2 previews, and i don't think the hotfixes generally get any previews.

it is possible we'll get a 1.30.30.30, if we ever get out of 1.21. Unlikely, but possible.

[hoary forge]

Have we ever reached a .30 in a Preview?

[prisma steeple]

from a quick scroll on bedrock.dev

why do previews start at 20 anyway?

[hoary forge]

No idea

[rough path]

Aribitrary, used to start at .50

If not arbitrary, I presumse .0 to .19 are used for alpha testing internal.

[half depot]

Ah so that's how we got to 1.16.200 😂

[rough path]

Well that was a different era.

[half depot]

Fair enough

[prisma steeple]

they clearly just hate 0-19

[stoic junco]

.40-.50 internal
.20-.30 beta/preview
.0-10 release

[limber tiger]

Tomorrow we getting 1.21.100 ooooor 1.22

[rough path]

1.23.

[tribal torrent]

yes shadow drop 1.22 and beginning preview 1.23.0.20

chase the skies update? wym its already in the game now

[fluid wadi]

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but I found this in the lang files on the Bedrock Samples Github page.

[rough path]

Yep. Already discovered.

[prisma steeple]

[rough path]

Its legacy code from Java.

Nothing new, its already been long discovered.

I have an issue about taking screenshots on Minecraft.

First screenshot is an old screenshot that I took around a couple of months ago. Second screenshot is a new screenshot that I've just took. If you take a close look at them with a pixel art editor, the second screenshot isn't as good as the first screenshot. There are some quality issues around the pixels. I've shown an example in the third screenshot.

I've tested and this isn't related to my PC at all. This only happens in Minecraft screenshots. Maybe it's because of a recent update? I don't know why it does that but I should find a solution around this because I often take screenshots in Minecraft for pixel art related stuff.

[dawn fable]

it doesn't do this when i try to take a screenshot but I think shrinking the window to reduce the GUI scale could help to avoid it

[obsidian lark]

Noticed this weird NBT entry in a 1.21.100 level.dat. whenever I load the world, it adds another minecraft: to the end.

The entry has an empty value in my older worlds.

[rough path]

Must be a side effect of requiring biomes to have namespaces now.

[obsidian lark]

Maybe, but I hope this doesn't cause problems for me.

[rough path]

Unforseen consequences revealed in 6 months.

[obsidian lark]

This even happens on a world that isn't using the biome experiment.

[torn pond]

minecraft:minecraft:minecraft moment

(also please mojang let us have biome override without the need for external tools)

[dawn fable]

I assume it's adding it to the start as an attempt to infer the minecraft namespace but it's not recognising that a namespace is already there
maybe it needs something after the final colon to stop doing it

[rough path]

The namespace requirement applies to vanilla non experimental as well.

[torn pond]

this will break your world once they add the Minecraft biome.

[obsidian lark]

This is what's it's for.

[rich vault]

Memory leaks ftw

[torn pond]

yeah. single biome worlds like what java has, which are mostly functional on bedrock (and "mostly functional" is how i'd describe them on java, too). It's weird that they don't let us have them without external tools.

they were better before 1.18 messed with how world generation works (on both java and bedrock since the change affects both in the same way) :<

[obsidian lark]

So I set it to minecraft:plains and it seems to have stopped.

Such a weird issue. Wonder if there's a bug report for it.

[dawn fable]

It's not causing any issues and it's quite hidden so i doubt it

I wish minecraft:block_placer took an array of block identifiers and also let you specify how a block in the array is picked (random, cycle, etc).

[rough path]

Scripting

[tropic coral]

How can i make a block get destroyed when there are no blocks above it

Like lanterns

[tropic chasm]

Placement filter is limited to 64 blocks so you would need scripting.

[obsidian lark]

That's what I've been doing.

[sleek grail]

Air tag would solve this

Or the stuff they talked about with voxel models

[kind rivet]

maybe you changed anti-aliasing settings before taking the second screenshot ?

screen filters ?

driver updates ?

check for those

the second screenshot does look sharper

[heady sable]

Vinbrant Visuals day tomorrow \o/. Who is excited?

Is that one of the Minecraft Discord stickers, yet?

[fluid wadi]

I know I don't seem to talk about much else, but can we get a kayla pun related to each stable release from now on? 🥺

[eternal shoal]

prepared my pack already for tomorrow 🔥

it will be epic

[fluid wadi]

Yep, I'm releasing an update to an add-on tomorrow as well!

[tropic chasm]

kayla always making my monday

[tribal torrent]

minecraft will never look the same again

[torn pond]

wlel no the fancy and simple options still exist. :3

[tribal torrent]

the sky is the limit when it comes to the possibilities of tomorrow’s update

[tribal torrent]

well yes but the default has changed for many players

[torn pond]

yeah.
hopefully 1.21.100 fixes the issues they made for the series S version.

1.21.80 has a few things in VV better than 1.21.90 did in previews.

[tribal torrent]

i can agree on that for one thing: pointlight shadows

i could at one point set it to low and not tank

[torn pond]

it seems like they enabled the last gen settings for current gen.

[tribal torrent]

now it has to be off but

yeah idk what they did to series s, it’s acting strange there

[torn pond]

so things like reflections and max render distance are worse in 1.21.90 than they were in 1.21.80
unless they fix that in stable 1.21.90

[tribal torrent]

isnt it like always trying to render in 4k

no matter what apparently

[torn pond]

might be, which is unfortunate.

but at least i can play at 33% resolution and it runs well and still looks good

[tribal torrent]

i unless they made the upscaling not blurrier anymore

i dont rlly agree with that

[torn pond]

it's blurry on PC but fine on console for me.

[tribal torrent]

hmmm

what resolution do you render on pc

[torn pond]

not sure :<

[peak idol]

So 1.21.90 stable is releasing tomorrow?

[torn pond]

I hope they update classic texture pack to allow VV. Unlikely since so far they still haven't fixed the bat using the new model instead of the old one, the creeper being a charged creeper, or the husk's face missing.

but it would be nice

[random karma]

Yes, this is infact the case.

Plenty a creator features, along with the Chase the Skies and Vibrant Visuals stuff

[torn pond]

fun lead changes and happy ghasts

i wonder what 4J will do for their mash-up packs for happy ghasts. Especially the star wars pack.

[devout barn]

Scripting 2.0.0 gonna be in stable tomorrow 😮

[torn pond]

its a shame that bedrock happy ghasts can't be brought through end portals.

on java they can, if they're in minecarts.

[devout barn]

Not too big of a deal imo, as you can just bring a dried ghast to the end and hydrate it there

[torn pond]

Yeah, but still it does mean you can't just bring your happy ghast between dimensions.

you can bring one between the overworld and nether, but can't bring it to the End, you need a different one there.

we need vibrant visuals with fast lighting

[fringe island]

Yeee finaly

[zenith aspen]

will we get a preview on Wednesday?

/faq stable

[fluid wadi]

Time zones strike again.

We should just turn off the sun. Then we won’t have to deal with time zones and the confusion of when Minecraft releases stuff.

Oh wait, I misunderstood. That was a pointless joke that took awhile to come up with.

[torn pond]

:3

[fluid wadi]

I did a dumb

[hazy mantle]

today is a stableful day

[zenith aspen]

Vibrant Day!!!!

[tribal torrent]

very good day

good graphical ghast trains go stable release

[torn pond]

shame we can't leash armor stands. Would make for a nice lead extender.

hopefully this drop releasing doesn't mean they don't do further improvements to things like leads, transportation, and VV.

[cerulean quarry]

Preview Day?

[elfin flower]

probably not i think

today is a 1.21.90 release or VV & ghast update

[torn pond]

preview tomorrow.

stable today

[cerulean quarry]

imma way for tomorrow

but playing some stable vanilla for a sec might be fun

[torn pond]

Im waiting for 1.21.120 at this point

but also stable 1.21.90 will be fun, i really like the things they added this time.

[elfin flower]

hopefully they optimized it for stable release

or i riot

[torn pond]

i just hope stable fixes the series S issues.

[elfin flower]

hopefully there's no bug though

major stable release usually is uh, mixed so far with more bugs than fixed bugs.

1.19.0 broke several things related to animations
1.20.0 broke android's renderer thing that memory leaks and global resource crashes the game
1.21.0 broke skin screen again

[torn pond]

so any bets on what breaks in today's stable?

[elfin flower]

VV probably gonna cause some graphical glitches.

but there a chance of UI crashing related too as it usually happens on every major stable releases.

honestly it felt like preview/beta is more stable than the stable release itself when the major came out

this is why i don't usually update the game if major update is out and would rather wait like a week or so until there's no weird bugs or released hotfixes

[torn pond]

I mean, yeah, but that's to be expected.

at least to an extent

[torn pond]

The Natural Texture Pack seems to be the first "by Minecraft" pack to be updated to the summer drop (or even the first marketplace pack in general to be updated to it). Doesn't seem like marketplace packs allow Vibrant Visuals yet even after they're updated to support the summer drop features?

[limber ledge]

Lots of things

As a NVIDIA GPU consumer, I had lots of graphics bugs both in 1.21.90 and 1.21.100 preview.

[undone crane]

In vv or just normal grhapics too?

[limber ledge]

I still don't know why Mojang chose to rush the VV... It is much more complex thing than a normal content update, if a normal update takes a while for polishing, then they needed to give 2x extra time for VV for polishing...

[limber ledge]

Only VV

I will test today's stable release

But since they enabled VV by Default so quickly, they needed much more time.

[elfin flower]

only things that i don't like with VV so far is just performance issues and frame pacing being enabled by default.

other than that i see no graphical glitches in my end so far.

[edgy abyss]

My friend streamed vv yesterday and it looked absolutely horrible, the water was full of bugs and render artifacts.

Im gonna try it today

He has a rtx 5090 btw so its not that his gpu sucks - just before anyone jumps to quick conclusions

[obsidian lark]

The 50 series apparently has driver issues. Which is pretty unusual for Nvidia.

[zenith aspen]

yea the water is terrible on vv rn...

[elfin flower]

i guess it's probably why the official trailer does not have a water reflection.

[normal wolf]

Waiting

[wet shell]

Todays the day

[tribal torrent]

everything is looking vibrant today

could it potentially be release hour this hour?

[tropic chasm]

Who's excited for the stable release?

[oak sinew]

I'm gonna wait til the hotfix update as usual

[zenith aspen]

ahh damn update will be out while I'm sleeping, it's midnight here

it's weird they haven't released a bedrock changelog.

for previews at least those tend to happen a bit before the preview itself drops

I mean they do have a schedule

[zenith aspen]

in 10min

[prisma niche]

Small stable release /j

[zenith aspen]

1.18 when

[half depot]

Vibrant visuals removed, added Vinbrant Visuals

I should make a VV pack that's really bad and call it Vinbrant Visuals 🔥

[fluid wadi]

I'm still annnoyed that they removed Harcore Mode and replaced it with that inferior Hardcore Mode

[hazy mantle]

that would be peak

[half depot]

Too bad I'm out of state 😔

[white blade]

That would be the most downloaded VV pack

[wet shell]

[half depot]

I'm just trying to think. VV doesn't have a lot of meme effects we can edit in packs 😔

Lemme make the bloom really strong

😔

I could probably just deep fry the hell out of it and make fog blinding levels of bad 😂

[astral brook]

long changelog ah

[charred ocean]

nah just make a normal pack and make it vinbrant visuals

[astral brook]

why theres no new tab for the update tho

[wet shell]

It’s official

Deferred in stable

[manic tinsel]

Editor is also out of beta!

[charred ocean]

lol

[tropic chasm]

@quasi wedge

The "minecraft:material_instances" component will no longer produce a content error if the "*" material is missing

[dawn fable]

oh I missed that

[quasi wedge]

already didn't, I only play in Preview 😆

[tropic chasm]

oh lol

[broken ridge]

so have they finally fixed the damn render controller texture bugs

[cloud moon]

No clue some dumb shit I did when I was a kid lol

[rich vault]

Fingers crossed

[broken ridge]

Its fixed

But

[oak sinew]

guess I can't use vibrant visuals 🤷‍♂️

thought it looked neat, but I wasn't too invested in it anyways, so oh well

[rough path]

Did you enable the Switch Visuals while in-game toggle?

[oak sinew]

this?

[rough path]

Yep. I see it's already turned on. 😔 It seems like your device doesn't support it then. What device is it?

[oak sinew]

it's a windows 10 PC

[rich vault]

Try turning it on in video settings in the main settings screen (not in the game)

[half depot]

Does your gpu support directX 12? That's the only requirement

[rich vault]

I've heard that you can't enable vv even if you have that mode switching toggle turned on

[half depot]

And on windows VV should just be in use by default

So it's likely it doesn't support DX12

[foggy isle]

intel igpu driver issue

if it was

[oak sinew]

not really computer-savvy enough to know the answer to that.

All I can tell you is that my graphics card is an Intel 630

[foggy isle]

GG

[half depot]

That's pretty old I believe

[foggy isle]

yes

very old

[half depot]

A UHD 630? Yea def won't support

[oak sinew]

alright, that adds up I guess

[half depot]

My laptop with a kind of modern-ish igpu struggles with VV

[elfin flower]

UHD and HD are discontinued at very close bedrock's required intel driver versions. you might get a better render dragon for it just to force the game into DX12 mode and you should use VV just fine

[elfin flower]

useless VV information: low shadow will make everything (except player and few blocks) that cast shadow more pixelated.

-# also dropped items doesn't cast shadow anymore for whatever reason ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[foggy isle]

yes
low and medium

also soft has shadow ance

[random ivy]

the nintendo switch doesnt even get that option

[elfin flower]

time to let it go

[random ivy]

07

[elfin flower]

switch is too old and can't even play fortnite properly

VV on this thing will turn switch into fire hazard.

[random ivy]

oh like the switch 2 already isnt? put VV on the Switch 2 immediately causes a fire

[elfin flower]

switch 2 probably doesn't have it yet since there's no any updates about it so far

but it'll have it soon

[tropic chasm]

It doesn’t has it no

I checked it a few hours ago

The switch 2 doesn’t has a switch 2 edition of the game yet. I hope they do it fast

Fortnite was pretty fast at it tbh

[plush wedge]

I just want to say
Needing an extra image file in nobody's favorite format (TGA (yes I know it's optional (if you like your channels getting squished))) and a boilerplate JSON file that does nothing but point to two files for every texture in the entire pack that you want VV support for is kinda lame

[rough path]

How would you structure it?

[dawn fable]

what is different about TGA

[rough path]

I was lowkey hoping that the texture set got expanded to per biome and dimension and time of day.

[rich vault]

Never understood it tbh, PNG can be exported just fine, in an uncompressed form that preserves RGB even for fully transparent pixels

It can be a pain to figure out how to configure your image editor, but it is possible

[fluid wadi]

I have Photoshop, so I can deal with it, but it was a huge pain before I learned how

[plush wedge]

Okay, super ideally, there would be an image format with an arbitrary number of named channels. And so you could have an RGBAMERS image file with all the information together. Maybe this exists, I don't know. This would also fix the silly idea of using the alpha channel for emissive materials elsewhere.
Precluding that, I would just have two side-by-side textures, blah.png and blah.mers.png. Ditch the JSON file except for a shared one in extenuating circumstances. Java uses .mcmeta files for animations, and even bedrock thinks that's too many loose files and merged them into flipbook textures. But now they want individual meta files for every texture in the entire pack.

[latent radish]

That was how it worked in the early RTX betas, but when texture sets were introduced they allowed multiple textures to reference the same PBR components. It's ideal for blocks like wool which all should share the same MERS and normal/heightmap

The weirdest part about that feature is that the textures are duplicated in the terrain atlas anyways

So video memory isn't saved at all

[plush wedge]

It may be allowed, but I scanned every file in the resource pack and I see that, without fail, every texture has:

• (name).png for the normal texture
• (name)_mers.tga for the PBR texture
• (name).texture_set.json for the JSON file
• color and metalness_emissive_roughness_subsurface pointed to those exact files
  So there is no sharing in vanilla, all the files are identical boilerplate, and just another extra step/point of friction where mistakes can be made. If sharing is a desirable feature (that vanilla isn't interested in...?), then surely it can be done some other way than this.

[stoic orchid]

Pretty sure the JSON files were tool generated.

[rough path]

I hope so. My PBR pack does anyways.

Though mines is convuluted and slow as hell because Python.

This is it btw: https://github.com/SmokeyStack/smokey_pbr/blob/main/filters/pbr-build.py

[toxic horizon]

Wait, what's the json file for? I'm guessing putting the textures together?

{
    "format_version": "1.21.30",
    "minecraft:texture_set": {
        "color": "amethyst_block",
        "metalness_emissive_roughness_subsurface": "amethyst_block_mers"
    }
}

Ah, it looks like that

Damn, I have not looked at the samples in ages

Didn't know biomes_client.json was a thing

[carmine kettle]

I'm torn on the key "metalness_emissive_roughness_subsurface". I like descriptive names, but this is a bit big 😅

Nothing wrong with it at all, I'm just laughing at my own reaction to it

[plush wedge]

It's so funny how they're always documented too
"Metalness is like how metally it is. Where 0 is not metally and 1 is like really metally somehow." I guess 0.5 makes you a cyborg

[rough path]

Would love to make mers based on time of day and biome as well.

[eternal shoal]

why?

block materials shouldn't change based on a biome

irl glass will be as reflective in forest as in desert

[tribal torrent]

maybe wooden planks get soaked in slime in the deep dark

and have a nice sheen over them

[rough path]

A grass is more reflective ie wet in a wetter biome or sunrise due to dew. A block is less bright during the day than the night.

[eternal shoal]

don't understand what do you mean by "A block is less bright during the day than the night"

it's already there just because sun is brighter and makes block light not as bright

[rough path]

A custom block that changes emissiveness based on time of day.

Say youre underground.

[rough path]

Not what I meant.

[eternal shoal]

oooh

that makes sense

but

how that could be made

[rough path]

We already have keyframes setup for lighting.

speaking of keyframes, keyframes for camera when?

[eternal shoal]

speaking of keyframes, keyframes for fog density when?

[zenith aspen]

i need it so badly

[gusty fulcrum]

[rough path]

Cool, Java command parity.

[muted widget]

damn i'm late

[zenith aspen]

aaaaaaaa yes

[torn pond]

To everyone hoping for minecoin gambling being added to the marketplace, sadly not this preview. Maybe next time.

[rough path]

@hoary forge Bot online?

[dawn fable]

I did think it was a bit weird to have access to a texture atlas key

Removed minecraft:destruction_particles's block API from "beta", it was deemed too risky to expose to server scripting API since the component is only being used on client

[hoary forge]

I will always do my best to let yall know beforehand when it's not

[rough path]

Ok but like...what if the bot gains sentience and kidnaps you?

[hoary forge]

I will make sure it kidnaps you too after so no post is created then

[simple badger]

[limber tiger]

How did A&S changed the snowball item model

i can't see any docs on the internet

[rough path]

Lowkey kinda sluggish.

[celest sluice]

Thoughts @prisma steeple ?

[prisma steeple]

wdym

[rough path]

When turning it kind of locks the rotation in increments, the moving forward or back is slow, unless I missed it is there no way to visibly see the camera position in the world?

[prisma steeple]

Those movement issues are likely coming from latency, not much can be done about that. There is no way to see the camera position, in hindsight, that's such an obvious thing to have

[rough path]

Yeah, Ive been anticipating this addon release for a while now and kind of just...disappointed at first try with the latency and movement speed.

[prisma steeple]

rip, wish I could've done better, we just have no client scripts so there's no real way to improve it

[rough path]

Yeah I totally get that, I will mess around with it more and maybe join Oreville discord if there is a dedicated forum or channel for me to give feedback.

[prisma steeple]

There is a suggestions channel, but no tag for this add-on yet afaik

[eternal relic]

We can take selfies now for free

[torn pond]

WHAT

The VV render distance is 24 now

on xbox

in the latest release

it was 16 a few hours ago

?!?!??!

[celest sluice]

oh. thought you meant preview

[torn pond]

i should check preview.

sudden render distance increase moment.

still 16 in preview.

[prisma steeple]

maybe a treatment pack thing?

[torn pond]

i hope this means it'll stay at 24. There's no reason a current gen console should be locked to 16 chunks render distance when 24 runs well.

oh also you can't switch graphics modes at all in world templates.

not even between fancy and simple

[celest sluice]

marketplace maps don't support VV either

although not between fancy and simple is odd

[torn pond]

yeah.
i can't even hover over the option in the latest preview.

i have in-game graphics mode switching enabled

but it doesn't let me hover over it on xbox

[torn pond]

idk what they did but im glad they did it. (if they did and this isn't just a bedrock moment bug, hard to tell sometimes)

the reflections are still broken

but at least the render distance is reasonable now.

can anyone else check series S (stable) and confirm this isn't just me getting a bedrock moment?

Noooooo, i clicked "favour performance" and it reduced it back to 16 :<

[celest sluice]

what if you press favour visuals?

[torn pond]

might have just been a bedrock moment then. mojang please.

[torn pond]

no it reduced the max to 16 either way

[prisma steeple]

rip

[torn pond]

mojang why do you do this

[charred ocean]

im late

Welp whatever

[torn pond]

alright compliment taken back.

[prisma steeple]

hi late

[torn pond]

this is still a terrible change mojang fix it >:(

[charred ocean]

hi majestik :]

looking majestic as always

[pure gull]

Lenovo Legion Tab Gen 3

With ultra settings

[torn pond]

screenshot i took of the render distance being where it SHOULD be.

[pure gull]

12 chunks max

[heady sable]

*Vinbrant memories

[pure gull]

Ultra + Automatic resolution after native:

[pure gull]

I noticed that they won't remove data anymore if someone deletes Minecraft on 1.21.90

or switching from preview

(it's on Android tbh)

[limber tiger]

I just thought about something, can we change an item animation when held without making an attachable ?

[quasi wedge]

how would you set it's animations

It has to be applied through the attachable file

[limber tiger]

Then how did action and stuff managed to make an different animation for snowball when it’s hold and when it’s thrown

Snowball’s Attachable change the model of the thrown object

Not the item by itself when hold

@quasi wedge

[willow sequoia]

Entity vs item

[limber tiger]

And how I can sort them

[quasi wedge]

Those are also vanilla files

They're replacing the vanilla animations

I guess I should have clarified, mb

[limber tiger]

Are those vanilla files for snowball available somewhere

[quasi wedge]

Samples pack?

[limber tiger]

They don’t have anything related to snowball

[quasi wedge]

It's possible it's a generic throw animation

[livid jasper]

handheld items play the animation you specify in the attachable file

[torn pond]

i made a door :3

[limber tiger]

yes but for snowball it's not the same thing

[limber tiger]

well i managed by magic to get this but well, now there is two

[native osprey]

what do they do with panorama screen lmao

now it loading after menu loading and this black for a while

[cloud moon]

bruh

there's no way you can't modify the overworld cubemap now

wth

[past wharf]

[quasi wedge]

really hope they add the ability to disable some content logs

[tropic chasm]

Is it a bug that minecraft:collision_box and minecraft:selection_box have a limit of 8 being the highest valid value in x and z?

[prisma steeple]

they're limited to the unit cube space

the smallest value on x and z is -8

highest is 8

so to get a 16x16 size, you need the origin at -8,0,-8

[tropic chasm]

-8, 0, -8 origin and 16x16x16 should be valid values yet they are not

[prisma steeple]

oh, then probably a bug

[tropic chasm]

Passing my add-on through https://mctools.dev results in numerous errors related to those components, regardless of any specified limits. So I assume the error is there rather than in the game.

[toxic horizon]

Yes

It works perfectly fine with up to 16. I reported it in Blockception repo

[limber tiger]

where do we get these "setup", "walk" "look_at_target" thing?

[simple steppe]

They are just short names
The game call the in animation controller or the script animate in the entity file

[elfin flower]

Huh, this is new.

[rough path]

Been in the files for a while.

[elfin flower]

Difficulty and gamemode now has icons next to it too

there's result screen after the select character that shows all things you choose.

[torn pond]

LEGO game

[charred ocean]

dang

[charred ocean]

is it something you forgot to put a screenshot for?

[rough path]

Idk what that that means.

[charred ocean]

i mean you always show new stuff in the files through screenshots

and put it up here

for everyone to see

[rough path]

No.

[charred ocean]

yeah i get it. alr

[charred ocean]

idk why but this gives me mixed vibes of the launcher UI we have for windows

[elfin flower]

it's only exclusive for those who reinstalled the game or new to the game.

[torn pond]

OreUI is trying to go for the same visual style as the launcher and Dungeons i think?

or at least, similar visually to those.

[rough path]

Legends.

[torn pond]

I was originally going to mention Legends but idk.
maybe? i'll check.

like, Dungeons i can see it.

Legends seems a bit different from what i see on google

[rough path]

Dungeons doesn't use OreUI.

[charred ocean]

dungeons isn't oreUI

And is alot different

[torn pond]

I mean, it doesn't use it but isn't it visually closer?

[charred ocean]

kinda but not anything close

[rough path]

Not really.

[torn pond]

Legends feels like Greek Mythology Mash-Up Pack UI

similar colour scheme

[charred ocean]

i mean yeah dungeons UI is minecrafty

but with different design

tbh i didn't play dungeons coz I don't have it

i was broke back then :/

and still am

[charred ocean]

but ueah legends UI might be the same tech but different designs

kinda crazy they managed to modify the whole game under 2 years.

[torn pond]

visually i actually really like the Legends UI

[charred ocean]

including UI

Meanwhile the base game is taking a 1 year per 2 screens lmao

[torn pond]

i actually wish they made vanilla UI look closer to Legends.

[charred ocean]

Actually i wanted to ask one thing, is this public rn?

[torn pond]

Ore UI just isn't that visually interesting in comparison to the Legends UI.

and like, also not as convenient to use on controllers

[elfin flower]

Yes, once again. only exclusive to reinstalled game or new people since you can only access them from it.

and it's only once.

[rough path]

Technology isnt visually interesting in comparison to UI that uses said technology

What?

[charred ocean]

i think it should be possible to get it by options.txt I believe

[torn pond]

Yeah i meant the vanilla OreUI vs Legends OreUI

[charred ocean]

probably not

[torn pond]

:<

[elfin flower]

No.

[charred ocean]

yeah i expected that

[elfin flower]

I've deleted them and doesn't seem to show me that screen ever again so lol

I think i might able to access it via my own UI pack.

actually lemme check.

[charred ocean]

by reinstall, i think it's just means a pure app reset

[elfin flower]

Ah yes i can access it.

here's all screens.

Choosing creative mode will not have difficulty menu.

Touch controls is also same but with skip button now.

[rough path]

Yeah, they're all known.

Except the first two, I haven't seen on Twitter, but the other 6 have been.

I believe the Designer for the pixel art no longer works for Mojang though.

[elfin flower]

Yep i heard.

Also seeing those difficulty and game mode's icon makes me wonder if it will ever make it to play screen or world selection menu.

[charred ocean]

oh you meant the guided world creation alr

[elfin flower]

Also the "Ready to play" can change the descriptions depends on what difficulty or gamemode you play on.
