      The other mob contest that the Phantom won. They never added the others... :[

      oh, yes. I mean, at least then they actually had new ideas. This year they were just reusing mobs from Earth and Dungeons. What a waste.

  2. Just wondering, why are people going crazy over LacaMenDRY leaving? His departure is temporary, he said so himself.

    What makes this particular departure (which, again, is temporary) so utterly soul-crushing over literally anyone else leaving? Honestly curious.

    I don't want to cause any arguments here; I just want to know why this is such a big deal.

    EDIT: I'd also like to mention that saying he's the sole reason the forums is alive is just flat-out false.

      I dont like it when people treat underdogs  unkindly, it reminds me of me seeing people being enslaved against their own will on a video.

      Agreed, I've been in/am in groups and seen firsthand that they're filled with people from the forums that do that, And I really don't like it tbh, Because either these underdogs or new users don't make particularly good renders, Or they do, But They all still have potential.

      But ofc, The elitists come along and talk up a storm about how "X user used mixels and noise on their texture! It looks terrible, They should give up.", Or "Y user uses point lights instead of spot lights! They should know better, Its so performance heavy.", Or "Z user's rig looks like the ice age baby! They should quit the program and let the professionals do it!", Like they don't know any better, You have to teach them with respect these things, Or they'll take it less as criticism, And more as an insult to their work.

      insanehelix7076

      The thing that those critics don't understand is that those that they criticize based on their renders being bad or models being bad or anything else being bad is that they are their elders from program skill. And yet those people are too immature to understand that because they are insecure as hell.

      i understand im going ballistic right now cause of this but im pretty sure this tends to happen to people with the same experience as me at a younger time.

  3. Damn, I cannot catch a break.

      Long story short, I asked a question and now he hates me so much that he's going out of his way to make me look bad.

      But there are tons of bootleg programmer art resource packs making the new textures worse ?

      Pretty cool

  6. Woah, what?

    unknown.png

    1,000 Rep?! But... how? ;o;

    I ought to make a celebratory render. Even though my rendering skills have become a bit rusty after nearly a whole year of zero rendering motivation, so it'll likely take me a while... lol

    Thank you so much for all of the support you've given me throughout the past two years I've spent on here. It really means a lot to me. :D

  7. Honestly looking forward to the next Mine-imator Forums Survey if/when it happens, since I'm starting to think this community really needs another wake-up call.

      lmao Rollo makes a biannual forum survey just to track its growth. I forgot when they're held but they're always fun

    4. Rollo

      Rollo

      It's a good thing you forgot when they're held because I'm a month late 8D

  8. Just tried out the new Modelbench, and if I'm honest the UI looks amazing.

    However, to be brutally honest... it's really confusing. Most of the previously-visible buttons are now completely gone and I feel like I'm expected to know what and where everything is, but I really don't and it's making me feel like an idiot for not knowing.

    The Snapping Tool isn't the best either; when I had it turned on I kept finding myself having to go back and forth constantly changing the snap value when changing Positions, Rotations and Scale. I just found myself turning the thing off and never using it because it was just a hassle to use.

    Also, why were the "Center" buttons for Pivot Offsets removed? Or have they been moved into yet another keyboard shortcut I'm expected to remember?

    I'm sorry in advance, just voicing my opinion on this. I don't expect anyone to agree.

      right click some options, previous options are hidden in the right click menu

      Spontaneous Explosions

      I agree on the snapping issue, for sure. And I did miss the centering buttons.

      I liked it better when the snapping was different for each action(rotating, moving,scaling). Now it's the same for everything.

       

  9. Dare I say such an extremely unpopular opinion... I'm glad the Glow Squid won.

    Please don't kill me, guys.

      @Ethaniel It was just because all of the Status Updates before me were hating on it

    Do you pose sitting Creepers

  11. WIP of a crafty boi for the next set that I'll hopefully finish
    Sorry progress is slow because lack of motivation and abundance of problems. I'm working on these little guys I promise ;u;

      a creative way to do the eyes could be torches

      I wonder what would a TNT creeper do?

    4. __Mine__

      __Mine__

      @Ian_The_One Yes, that's the Programmer Art texture.
      Not to worry though; like with the previous sets, the Jappa-textured variant will also be included.

      @Cubic Ralsei A nice idea, however in order to remain true to the textures I won't be adding facial features unless they're a part of the texture itself (the eye on EnderChest Creeper, for example).

      @MojangYang I imagine he'd be a boomer.
      ;u;

  12. Another pose test, this time with my main character, Dave. I ought to provide a bit of an explanation for this one... :sweat:

    I randomly decided to see if I could make him facepalm (facefoot?)... let's just say it's pretty hard to do so, given that he's a Creeper.
    ...so here's my best attempt lol

    Facefoot.png

    This is probably the most awkward thing I've ever made... still happy with the result though.

    Okay, time to work on something else.

      @Draco63 No idea what "comment" you're referring to. This wasn't inspired by anything on the forums lol

    3. Draco63

      Draco63

      @__Mine__ Oh lol I commented on a "Happy Birthday" post in which dave was using his front feet to hold up a cake.  (I think.)

    4. __Mine__

      __Mine__

      @Draco63 Ah, that comment. Yeah, he was; since he doesn't have hands, using his front feet is the next best thing lol
      Just a bit of a coincidence I guess :P

  13. Just noticed there's now @TopicLocker3000, which now auto-locks topics that have received no replies in six months.

    @Nimi if you added this, thank you for finally making this a thing.

    1. crustyjpeg

      crustyjpeg

      although it could use some tweaks/changes

      it locks modelbench creations despite those having a far higher chance of being updated than wallpapers and animations, which don't get locked
      might need to be fixed but i dunno

    2. Nimi
    3. __Mine__

      __Mine__

      Ah, whoops. Sorry about that.

      Also, as pointed out above, animation and render topics aren't being auto-locked, since I just saw someone reply in a topic that had received no replies in almost 4 years.

  14. Another rant incoming, sorry...

    In my opinion, the Minecraft Movie is going to suck. Badly.

    Movies based on popular games have historically been bad, and the fact they're making it live-action is even worse.

    Seriously... are you out of your minds, or are you deliberately trying to make it as bad as possible?

    And from what I've seen, the response to this news has actually been almost entirely negative, mainly due to the fact they're making a blocky sandbox game into a live-action movie.

    Why.

    1. Cryptic Runner

      Cryptic Runner

      maybe they're going to make the actors blocky characters using high budget vfx and stuff

    2. Mineshaft Animation

      Mineshaft Animation

      But this says “animated”..

      Dr. Nexil

      I also have low expectations for it because I was told 3 years ago by Mojang that it would be released on May 24, 2019. Now it's going to be another 3 years... AND live action...

  15. Welp, I think it's safe to say that as of 1.19.1 the opinion of "Minecraft is ruined" just turned from subjective to objective.

    1. Draco63

      Draco63

      I've been saying that Mojang/Microsoft is destroying Minecraft for years, and I've finally been vindicated now that they've done something so horrible that the entire community hates it. I think I have the right to be at least a little bit cynical.

    2. Floofy

      Floofy

      I had much hope for Mojang, but this really just soured my mouth, I really hope something will happen or they at least improve the system, though I doubt they will. Best regards for the future

      What made it bad? Removing the Fireflies? Or something else?

  16. Oh look, some Music Discs

      Ok so i guess topic locker was added 2 months before my arguing arrival

  18. What's with the sudden massive influx of 5N@F renders?

    Don't get me wrong though, I've got nothing against 5N@F or those who like it. This is all merely an observation.
    It's just that I seem to be seeing these renders everywhere now, and to be honest they're all starting to feel a little samey; an animatronic, posing in a really dark room, with glowing eyes.

    ...idk, the quality of them is great, but it just feels like the originality is starting to fade.

    1. Dr. Nexil

      Dr. Nexil

      Honestly I've been wondering the same thing for a while now. There's been a large increase of these renders for some reason. Also totally agree with your points here.

    2. crustyjpeg

      crustyjpeg

      i've noticed that, and honestly i think the "dark background character render" thing is extremely overdone and not even good to begin with

  19. Idk, randomly felt like trying out a pose with one of my characters, VoxelCreep.

    VoxelCreep_-_Pose_Test.png

    I should do this more often tbh

    1. insanehelix7076

      insanehelix7076

      nice the lighting is really good in fact its so good that it makes the texture look different

    2. Ethaniel

      Probably the more interesting humanoid creeper Ive seen, not too sure about the green shirt though.

  20. Any ideas on when the next Mine-imator Forums Survey will be?

    1. Rollo

      Rollo

      I didn't think people were actually still interested in it so I forgot about it, but if you are I'd be down to do it today or tomorrow

    2. __Mine__

      __Mine__

      It's honestly up to you, I was just curious since it's a twice-a-year thing and the last one was in April, which was six months ago.

  21. Woah, this caught me completely by surprise.
    500 Rep! How'd I get so much so quickly asdfdsafdfsddasf
