      @Hectoris919 Create a camera, then a surface. Change the surface's texture to "camera"

      @9redwoods I made several layers and used an image editor for this.

  2. For the first time since Feb 28 2016, we can truthfully say Minecraft 1.9 will(probably) be out tomorrow.

      @Ghatos I think he is referring to the bedrock edition

    3. Spontaneous Explosions

      Yes, I mean Bedrock XD 

      @Ethanial Hey, you're right! So  now there have been 3 "1.9"s. Of course, bedrock beta alpha and all that probably had 1 or 2 as well...hm

    4. Ethaniel

      Ethaniel

      Well technically it never came out. Beta 1.9 were the first snapshots in Minecraft. It went straight from 1.8.1 to 1.0.0.

  3. BIOMES?! They added custom BIOMES!? Bedrock is making everything data driven...not that I'm complaining.

      Mojang can we have command blocks please (PLEASSE, AND COMMANDS 2)

    3. Spontaneous Explosions

      @FredMCGamerWhat? Bedrock has command blocks.

      @jakubg1I'm sure it will come to Java eventually, since they're always talking about feature parity.

      I mean, I'd love to have commands in Bedrock (PS4) :V

  4. The new Minecraft(Bedrock) Render engine will be called the "Render Dragon Engine" XDXD. That's so stupid it's funny. Yeah who cares as long as it allows for the Super Duper Graphics Pack!!?

  6. In some ways, I kind of like the Bedrock is lacking about 4000 commands and 230 million selector arguments, as well as like all of the scoreboard options, so I get to come up with creative work arounds you'd never even consider on Java.

      @SuperNerdNathan It it NOT easier to mod. On bedrock you can add a fully working new mob in minutes. a new block in seconds. And a bunch of other things(including new biomes, or edit existing ones), plus you don't need to know Java to do it, basically you need to be able to read. And we don't need data packs; on Bedrock resource packs basically take their function.

  7. I just saw the e3 trailer for the new Avengers game. How do they justify calling it an Avengers game when none of them are in it?  Strange. No, sorry. Strange isn't in it. hm. Odd would be better. they do have some people who almost resemble the Avengers if you squint.

      this isnt supposed to be the MCU avengers. this game has nothing to do with the MCU. which is why everyone looks different. comics fam

    3. Spontaneous Explosions

      Spontaneous Explosions

      Well, it should. Also, the characters suits and things are obviously based off movies, not comics.

    4. KaryuGraphics

      KaryuGraphics

      I like the fact that it isn't the regular MCU cast. The suits are kind of based off the movies but you can even say the comic suits were changed after Avengers' success. You're argument is sort of like people not liking Spider-Man PS4 because it's not apart of the MCU and has a different actor is playing Peter. Doesn't make sense... But either way, new characters are getting added after release with different stories, so I think it's safe to say Stephen Strange has a chance of getting featured/added.

  8. YES!!! Finally! Foxes out in Beta for bedrock!!!!

      Woah what? Java updated before Bedrock?!

    3. Spontaneous Explosions

      Spontaneous Explosions

      Java has been updated before Bedrock most of the time Bedrock went through a semi-short time where it was updated faster. But, to be fair, Java has one platform to deal with, while Bedrock has a bunch.

    4. Ethaniel

      Ethaniel

      I thought Microsoft kinda was paying more attention to Bedrock because they want their own little bastardized version of Minecraft. Java isn’t something they like because you can do everything for free.

  9. https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/render-dragon-and-nvidia-ray-tracing

    Okay so this is better than super duper graphics pack(it's free, and keeps Minecrafts default textures).

    But it uses Directx Raytracing. I think that means it won't be coming to Xbox One? But will be on Project Scarlett

      I feel like this isn't the only graphics-y thing coming with the Render Dragon. Ray tracing is way too exclusive to replace SDGP. LIke, one platform can have it,  until probably 2021. And when they canceled SDGP, they said they will have other ways for Minecraft to have fancyness I think.  So I think there will be somthing for the general Bedrock playerbase soon, in addition to this.

  10. Honestly, not sure I like the direction this new Bedrock skin system is going. The big thing I don't like is that you player can be tall or short.

    They should make big changes to the player like that...

      I don't know, I actually don't mind it too much, options are nice. I guess having it affect hitboxes is a genuine concern, I hope they'll do something about it.

  11. Apparently, I'm not a 'hardcore' Halo fan. I liked Halo CE, Loved Halo 2, didn't like Halo 3 very much, but I'm enjoying Halo 4. My brothers can't stand that I like the new ones. Prob won't like Halo 5 when I play though Looking forward to Infinite

      Green and blue, To galaxy, Laskys theme, sacrifice, Never forget(halo 4 edition) for Halo 4

      Halo theme gugnir remix, jeopardy, zealous champion, unyielding soul, a spartna rises, this glittering band, spartans regret, moon over Mombasa 1 and 2, for Halo 2 A.

      Never listened to arrival before, listening now. It's good. ?

      5 minutes and 34 seconds later: Holy cow, this might be the best track in the album. When my brother played Halo 4, I heard this one track I loved but could never find. This is it.

  12. Someone should make a series of animations where the Mad Java Player, Ethanos(I'm proud of coming up with that) uses the Infinity Stones to kill the entire Bedrock player base. The ones who bring them all back are the remaining Java devs who worked on Bedrock and Java(Jeb, I think Dinnerbone and probably some others). It wouldn't end with Ethanos dying or Bedrock winning though, more like  they reach a compromise.

      And just before Ethanos snaps, he'll say, "Java...is  superior " then his snap will fail.

      Spontaneous Explosions

      well, it would be his second snap. I hope you'v seen Endgame. This would make more sense.

  13. I'v made greate use of structure blocks since they were added to Bedrock(well, in beta), but what'll really be great is when corner mode comes in. Right now you have to input each value manually, which is pretty tedious on Xbox and Switch.

    Speaking of that, I should also mention the structure void block. If you don't know what it does I won't go into that.

    Anyway, on Java it's a little cube that does it job and pretty much nothing else. On Bedrock is performs it's function and acts exactly like a barrier, invisible, unbreakable in survival, but it's transparent, you can walk through. That's an interesting property.

      Yeah, for a while mobs didn't either, although I think that's being changed now. I'm fine with it either way really.

      There's like 100,000 novels about how he got out. He's a very loved character, even though he had a minor role.

      Plus, he had a jet-pack type thing. So, maybe he got out with that.

    4. Draco63

      Draco63

      well the reason he got eaten is because his jetpack malfunctioned. so there's that.

  16. A whole bunch of people have already seen The Rise Of Skywalker.

    A lot of negative reviews. I'm not going to let someone decide for me though. I'll have my own opinion come Saturday when I see it.

     

    I imagine it was the "Last Jedi" hating crew that went to see it, having already decided to hate it before they saw it. People are like that sometimes.

      The negative reviews are not gonna stop me from seeing it. I'll definitely bring food and water to help ease the pain if it is actually hot garbage.

  17. President Trump has been impeached. Shocker.(Please note sarcasm).

    Fun fact: Impeached does not mean removed from office. He will not be removed.

    I think he will be re-elected in 2020.

    It would be so satisfying if he was re-elected.

     

    Democrats:"We did it! We impeached him! yay!"

    Majority of American voters in 2020:"Yeah, well we still don't believe your lies.".

  18. Honestly, the best new Modelbench feature in my opinion is the 'reload textures on window refocus'. 

    Live texture editing is very handy.

    1. Show previous comments  3 more
    2. __Mine__

      __Mine__

      I'm finding that it's because I'm editing the texture that's attached to the .mimodel file (AKA in the same folder as it).

      If I make a copy elsewhere, make changes to the copy, then replace the texture with the edited copy manually, it works.

      Pretty certain that's a bug...

    3. Voxy

      Voxy

      @__Mine__ For it to work, you need to:

      1. Save your model at least once.
      2. Make your changes on the copy of the texture Modelbench will create at the save location, as this is the one that'll be linked to your model.

      EDIT: Huh, that's what you're doing. It's weird, that's how it works on my end.

      its what i said maybe its not saving the changes properly.

  19. So far my favorite new nether feature is ,Netherite. I love it. The netherite block is amazing, looks like rustly industrial metal.

    Plus, I LOVE the new armor. So glad I won't have to run around is hideous bright blue armor anymore, instead I get to run around in armor that looks like....well, armor.

    I means seriously, Buddy, you need to drop out.

    It's going to be Bernie, maybe Mayor Pete, or god forbid, Mike Bloomberg.

    You're not getting the Democratic nomination. 

    Doesn't matter how much money you have or how many ads you make, you can't buy your way into office. That's Bloomberg's thing.

      If the media hasn't convinced you that Trump is the Devil, you might see that he's pretty much a regular guy with a whole bunch of money. And a big ego.

      What I mean is that he doesn't drink alcohol(Very much at least), he doesn't smoke or do anything that rich people generally do. And he likes McDonalds.

  21. Serious CNN article, says Coronavirus should be renames Trumpvirus.

    How could they possibly claim that one man is responsible for a potential global epidemic? And even if one guy is responsible, how in the world could the President of the United States be that guy? It's coming from China. 

    But in all seriousness, they mean that Trump is responsible because he cut the budget for the CDC(Center for Disease Control), which of course is completely false. All he did was give them a smaller raise than what they wanted, but a raise nonetheless.  

    Even if you do support the Democratic party, surely you can see that this idea is absurd.

      Wrong news source. The opinion to rename Coronavirus to Trumpvirus comes from an author that writes for the New York Times, not CNN. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/26/opinion/coronavirus-trump.html

      @Nimi, ah, you are correct. My mistake.

  22. Ooh, interesting! Trump has declared a state of emergency due to the Coronavirus.

    Obama did the same thing back in 2009/10 with the swine flu.

    I guarantee you Trump will be criticized for doing what was once praise worthy in similar circumstances.

  23. What if this time next year coronavirus is still at large?

    I mean, it's never going to go away. COVID19 will be on Earth for the foreseeable future. We don't currently have a way to eradicate a sickness.

    The flu comes around every year and kills thousands in the USA alone, but life goes on.

     

    If coronavirus sticks around for a lot longer, at what point does it become a fact of life, like flu and colds?

     

    Anyway, just something I was pondering. Hope it doesn't come to that.

      Yes, but viruses mutate, and you're not immune to the mutated strand.

      what do you mean we don't have the ability to eradicate a sickness?

      though, yeah, it'll probably never happen with COVID-19.

    4. Spontaneous Explosions

      We have no way of know its completely gone.

      If killing viruses was easy, or even plausible why would the common cold still be around?

       

  24. So they added jigsaw blocks to bedrock, you can open a ui pretty much exactly like the java one.

    Can these be used for anything by players yet, even on Java? Or are they only used by the game?

      Spontaneous Explosions

      Now that I think about it's the implementation of these to Bedrock may be a precursor to proper custom structures.(Which I think already is on Java?)

      I can honestly see Bedrock getting user functionality for jigsaw first, because of the way resource/behavior packs are already set up.  

      What I'm getting at is that whenever Bedrock gets custom structures, they may allow creators to use jigsaw to create structures similar to villages.(which is what jigsaw is already used for, at least on Java)

       

    4. __Mine__

      __Mine__

      Pretty sure Java Edition's recent snapshots are looking toward implementing Jigsaw Block functionality.

  25. Hey, so in today's Java snapshot you can now choose world game rules in a menu upon creation.

    If you didn't know, this is a parity feature from Bedrock ---> Java.

    Now if only Bedrock could get the 8000 game rules it's missing from java...
