Bed Yes No Any tool 0.2 0.2 No Yes JE: NoBE: Yes No JE: YesBE: No 3 WOOL A bed is a dyeable utility block that allows a player in the Overworld to sleep through the night and reset their spawn point to within a few blocks of the bed, as long as it is not broken or obstructed. Contents Obtaining No tool can accelerate the breaking process of bed. Bed drops itself when it's destroyed. Igloo Village Trial chambers Usage Beds are used by pressing the use item button while looking at the bed. A player sleeps by using a bed during a thunderstorm, or at night (between 12523 and 23477 ticks in clear weather, when stars appear in the sky, or between 12002 and 23998 ticks in rainy weather). Players can sleep during a thunderstorm even if they are in a biome where it does not rain (e.g. desert). Attempting to use a bed at any other time results in the message "You can sleep only at night or during thunderstorms" in Java Edition or "You can only sleep at night and during thunderstorms" in Bedrock Edition. A player sleeps in a bed for 101 in-game ticks, or 5.05 seconds before the time skips to the next day. Sleeping in a bed with the /gamerule doDaylightCycle set to false results in the player being kicked out of the bed after the 101 ticks, but does not change time of the world to day. Sleeping in a bed is possible only in the Overworld. Attempting to sleep in a bed in the Nether, the End, and custom dimensions[JE only] in which they are disabled causes it to explode and set fire to surrounding blocks. The explosion has power 5, which is stronger than TNT (4), but not as strong as a charged creeper or end crystal (6). The explosion centers on the head part of the bed. Villagers can sleep normally in any dimension without the bed being blown up. Upon death from a bed explosion, the message "(Player) was killed by [Intentional Game Design]" appears. In Bedrock Edition, bed explosions can be disabled by setting /gamerule respawnBlocksExplode to false; this still prevents beds to be used in invalid dimensions. The player must be close to the bed to sleep. If the player is close enough to interact with the bed, but not close enough to sleep in it, the message "You may not rest now, the bed is too far away" in Java Edition or "Bed is too far away" in Bedrock Edition appears. To use a bed, a player must be within a distance of 3 blocks in Java Edition or 2 blocks in Bedrock Edition from the bed. If a monster is within 8 blocks of the bed head horizontally (in the X- and Z-axis), and 5 blocks vertically (in the Y-axis), the message "You may not rest now, there are monsters nearby" appears and the player is prevented from sleeping until the monsters leave or are killed. Most hostile mobs, as well as some neutral mobs prevent players from sleeping, as shown in the table below. If the player has not entered a bed and didn't die for 3 in-game days, phantoms can spawn unless /gamerule doInsomnia is set to false. In Java Edition, this can be verified by checking if the "Time Since Last Rest" statistic is greater than 1.00 h. Taking damage from any source while in a bed causes the player to wake; this means players cannot sleep while on fire, while poisoned, or while starving, because the damage wakes them before they can fully fall asleep. Attacks from other players and hostile mobs also wake the player in this way, although the latter is rarely seen due to hostile mobs typically preventing the bed from being entered in the first place. The player also cannot sleep in a bed occupied by another player, resulting in the message, "This bed is occupied". A player can, however, sleep in a bed being used by a villager. The player may first wake the villager (pressing use on the villager) and then quickly enter the bed before the villager can lie down again. The villager reclaims the bed after the player wakes. The villager is kicked out of its bed when a player attempts to sleep there. If all sleeping requirements are met and the player enters a bed, the player is positioned in the bed. The player falls asleep as the screen fades to black. In Bedrock Edition, the sleeping animation slowly lowers the player into bed. Once all players in a world are asleep, after 5 seconds (100 ticks) the time of day changes to sunrise. (time 0) During this time, the chat window is focused, and the player can leave the bed by clicking the Leave Bed button. Waterlogged beds[Bedrock Edition only] cannot be slept in unless the player or villager has the Water Breathing or Conduit Power status effects. Attempting to use a waterlogged bed otherwise does not display any message. In Java Edition, beds displaying an error above the hotbar is a feature exclusive to beds. In Bedrock Edition, the bed sends the message in the chat; other blocks that cannot be used do not display such a message. The process for determining where to put the player after waking up is the same as for determining where to respawn the player after death (see below). The player attempting to sleep in a bed with no suitable wakeup positions (achievable by interacting with the bed from underneath it), such that the player will suffocate upon waking up, will result in the message "This bed is obstructed". The player always wakes up facing the head of the bed. Villagers always wake up on top of the bed, meaning they can suffocate if there isn't enough room above the bed. Sleeping changes the time of day to sunrise and resets the weather cycle, changing the weather to clear conditions. In Java Edition, the weather cycle resets only during rainy or snowy weather. Sleeping does not accelerate processes that take place over time such as the growth of crops or smelting. To skip the night in multiplayer, all players in the Overworld must be in bed at the same time. Pressing the Leave Bed button is not necessary in this case. The percentage of players that need to sleep to skip the night can be customized with the game rule playersSleepingPercentage. Sleeping in a bed while playersSleepingPercentage is set to higher than 100 displays the message "No amount of rest can pass this night." and disables passing the night. Villagers are unable to skip the night by sleeping in beds, unlike players. Players and villagers do not drown or take damage from lava while in a bed, even if the bed is covered in lava. However, if the bed is destroyed while the player is in it, due to for example an explosion or by another player, the player wakes prematurely and the night does not pass. In Bedrock Edition, on Peaceful difficulty only, sleeping in a bed fully restores the player's health. Once a player has entered a bed (or right clicked the bed during daytime), their spawn point is set to the location of that bed. Multiple players can set their spawn point on a single bed. Using a bed in the daytime likewise sets the spawn point, without actually entering the bed. When a bed explodes, it does not set the spawn point. The message "Respawn point set" is displayed in chat when the respawn point is successfully changed. The check for a bed is made only when the player respawns. This means that the bed can be destroyed and replaced or even reoriented, but as long as there is a bed present in the same location, the player can respawn there. If a player's bed is absent, or if the area around the bed is made unsuitable for respawning (see below), a message is displayed saying "You have no home bed or respawn anchor, or it was obstructed" in Java Edition or "Your home bed was missing or obstructed" in Bedrock Edition, and the player respawns at the world spawn point. When choosing where to respawn the player, the two blocks to the immediate left and right of the head of the bed are considered first. Which block is chosen between the two corresponds to which direction the player was facing when they last interacted with the bed to set their spawn point; For example, a bed facing west will respawn the player on the south side of the bed if they are facing towards the north while setting their spawn point, and vice versa. If the player is perfectly aligned with the bed when the spawn point is set, the right side of the bed takes priority. Interacting with the bed again will still update which side of the bed is chosen for respawning, even if the location of the spawn point itself does not change. Once a side is chosen, if the block immediately on the chosen side of the head of the bed is obstructed, the next block to be checked is chosen moving in a clockwise (right side) or counterclockwise (left side) direction around the bed. If all of the 10 blocks immediately adjacent to the bed are obstructed, the block above the head of the bed is checked, followed by the block above the foot of the bed. The player is always respawned facing the head of the bed, the same as for waking up. For a location to be unobstructed, the block at the level of the bed must be air or non-solid (e.g. torches, but not glass) and there must be a space with a solid block below it and two non-colliding blocks for the player to stand in 0-2 blocks below the bed. It does not matter if the bed itself has blocks above it. Putting a slab one block above a bed can act as a two block tall space, as the bed is half a block tall. The bed never spawns the player directly below itself even if all other locations are obstructed. If a bed is obstructed, the player's spawn point is cleared after they respawn. That is, even if the bed is subsequently made usable again, the player continues to respawn at the world spawn until interacting with the bed again. Specifically, when interacting with it, the location of the head of the bed is saved as the spawn point, and if a bed is in that space (whether it is the foot or the head) then the respawn works. This can be observed by reorienting the bed with its head in the same location. Interacting with it does not produce a "Respawn point set" message as the game doesn't change the saved spawn point. If a bed is reoriented so that its foot is in this space, it still functions on the next respawn, but it can also be interacted with to update the spawn point to the new head of the bed and cause a "Respawn point set" message. Attempting the reverse, reorienting the bed so that it overlaps the original location of the foot, results in a respawn at world spawn. However, the location of the foot of the bed is also saved. If the bed is moved so that part of it overlaps the original location of the head, it can be observed that the same locations need to be obstructed to stop spawning. It is possible to respawn 2 blocks away from the bed this way. Falling onto a bed bounces the player with 66% strength – the bouncing-up velocity is 66% of the impact velocity. The player also takes less fall damage when bouncing on a bed. The player's fall distance is set to 50% of the actual distance fallen, which results in the player taking half of the normal fall damage. Baby villagers bounce on beds during the day. If the player is falling while sleeping requirements are met, and presses use on a bed within reach before hitting the ground, the fall damage is delayed until the player wakes. A player can bounce on a bed while another player or villager is sleeping on it without waking the player or the villager up. Villagers can be pushed onto beds, as the bed is half a block tall. Each bed in the vicinity of a zombie villager has a chance to speed up the process of curing the zombie villager. Iron bars (such as in a prison cell) also have this effect. Beds require two blocks of floor space. Placement requires at least 2 blocks from the player's facing direction. When placed, the foot of the bed is placed on the block selected and the head of the bed on the block farther away from the player. In Bedrock Edition, beds require solid blocks below them when placed. However, the bed remains in place if its supporting blocks are later removed. They also cannot be placed on transparent blocks. In Java Edition, beds do not require supporting blocks and can be placed anywhere, provided there is enough room. Because beds explode when a player attempts to sleep in the Nether or the End, they can be used as any other explosion, to demolish blocks or deal damage, with the advantage of being extremely cheap compared to TNT or end crystals, and being instantaneous. Explosions can be used, for example, to mine for ancient debris or to kill the ender dragon. In Bedrock Edition, beds do not explode if /gamerule respawnBlocksExplode is set to false. Beds are destroyed when a piston tries to push them. They are not pulled by sticky pistons.

Mod A mod (short for modification) is a piece of unofficial code that is injected into the game for the purpose of modifying its behavior. They can be used to enhance the game by means ranging from fixing bugs, adjusting core mechanics, to completely revamping the way the game is played with unique features. Contents Overview Mods are primarily user-created content used to alter the base game to create unique experiences that are not usually present from vanilla. They allow players to customize the look and feel of the game, give more options and customization, or expand the game with new progression and mechanics. Mods have control over various aspects of the game, where developers can modify or add custom features, such as physics, graphics, user interface, and various gameplay features (such as entities, items, blocks, world generation, and dimensions, usually through the game's registries). While many mods add content, others act as utilities that are designed to improve the game while being close to vanilla. There are optimization mods that modify the game's rendering to improve frame rates and load times, making the game more accessible on lower-end hardware (see also Tutorial:Improving frame rate). Other client side mods may also fix several bugs and improve stability of the base game, such as reducing crashes and micro-stutter, and fixing several block and item duplication bugs. Mods are usually designed for specific release versions of the game. When the game is updated, the mod must also be updated accordingly, otherwise it may no longer work for future versions. Java Edition is written in Java and runs on JVM, which for technical reasons makes creating mods relatively easy. Modding strongly depend on decompilation to see the game's source code. Because Java compiles to bytecode rather than machine code, it is highly susceptible to decompilation, allowing modders to reverse-engineer the game logic easily. Due to this, a prolific modding scene exists for that edition, which has matured over a decade, and has created several programs and tools for modding, notably mod loaders. For older versions, obfuscation maps provided by Mojang and the community which ease the process of reverse-engineering the game. The unobfuscated versions of the game also lets modders directly see the game's source code without obfuscation maps. Bedrock Edition is written in C++ and runs as machine code, which makes it technically challenging to mod. Mods for that edition exist, but are much less common and less complex, both due to technical challenges, and other reasons such as low interest from the community and add-ons providing official means of adding content to the game. In Java Edition, a mod loader is used to inject modifications into the game. Mod loaders serve as an intermediary between the game's and the mod's code, they provide two main functions for modding: (1) providing system of API and tools to develop new mods and communicate with the game, and (2) managing loading mods simultaneously while keeping them compatible with each other. There are many well-known mod loaders, such as Forge, Fabric, Quilt, and NeoForge. Each mod loader supports different system and API for developing mods. Because of this, mods designed for specific mod loader are not likely interoperable with another mod loader, and vice versa. Add-ons serve as the official modding API in Bedrock Edition, they can add new content and modify existing features and customizations in the game. In comparison to Java Edition mods, add-ons may be limited in terms of features and customization, but are far more friendly and less complex for creators. An official modding API was planned for Java Edition, called "Plugin API" (dubbed "Workbench"), but was subsequently abandoned, with no further mentions or developments of it after Java Edition 1.9 (see Mentioned features § Workbench (Plugin API)). In Bedrock Edition 1.21.20, Mojang Studios removed debug information (bedrock_server.pdb file) from Bedrock Dedicated Server, making modding more difficult for Bedrock Edition. While there are other ways to change the experience of Minecraft, such as resource packs and data packs, the ability to load these is part of the vanilla game and usually not considered modding (see Game customization). Historically, the modification of features such as advancements, enchantments, dimensions, or world generation have required the usage of mods. However, in later versions of the game, the additions and expansions of data packs and resource packs have allowed several of these features to be implemented into the game without any modification of or addition to the game's code. Most modern mod loaders allow data packs and resource packs to be included alongside a mod to provide additional data and resources, such as models or recipes. Types of mods Client mods are direct modifications of the Minecraft game files. They control and add custom content for mobs, particles, items, and blocks, such as models, sounds, textures, and GUIs, but require the server to implement the game mechanics behind them (see § Server-based). They usually modify the client software, or client.jar file. Functional client mods like Sodium and OptiFine modify and enhance client side features of the game, such as graphics fidelity and rendering, while not adding or changing any gameplay features, making them perfectly compatible with vanilla server without any modifications. Server mods are modifications to the official Minecraft server software. They control features that are handled exclusively in the server, primarily the game mechanics, such as physics, mob AI, chat, commands, player interactions (e.g. crafting, smelting, opening chests or inventory, block placement and destruction), world generation, and much more. They cannot control client side features, and are limited in terms of custom content. Most mods are installed together on the server and client side, allowing for more freedom and complete game customization. Server mods are commonly used to enhance server administration with more functionality and ease of use. They can provide tools to protect against griefing and cheating, implement tiered privileges for commands, automate server backup, monitor server performance, optimize gameplay features, and more. Most server mods are compatible with vanilla client, without requiring the same modifications on their end (see semivanilla). Most multiplayer minigames, such as spleef, capture the flag, sky wars and bed wars, are implemented using server mods. Server mods may be referred to as plugins, mainly on Spigot mod loader and its derivatives. Some are implemented as wrappers, which do not modify the server software directly, instead monitoring its output and sending commands to it, typically using the RCON protocol. A shader pack is a client mod used to alter the visuals and looks of Minecraft. They primarily change the game's graphics, and enhance it by adding shadows, lightnings, reflections, and other customization. Shader packs require a mod designed to load them, such as Iris Shaders or OptiFine. When combined with resource pack, shader packs can drastically transform the game's appearance, allowing players to customize into different styles and settings like medieval, realistic, cinematic, and cartoonish. Additionally, resource pack can include custom material data loaded by shader packs for use in physically based rendering (PBR). Modern shader packs can implement path tracing and global illumination (GI) for Minecraft, most notably, SEUS PTGI and Continuum RT have done this. A mod pack is a collections of mods that have been put together and configured so that they work together. Mod packs are often centered around a general theme like tech, quests, or magic. Mod packs often have either custom launchers or installers that make installing and running the mod pack easy. Some of the most popular mod packs include Feed The Beast, Tekkit, RLCraft, and Hexxit. In addition to making it easy to install mod pack clients, certain launchers can also download server mod packs. Modded flag If Minecraft crashes, a modified game is flagged in the crash report. This is possible by first checking the client or server brand is vanilla branded, then verifying if the Java class (where the game crashed from) is signed from a signature file, which is stored on the META-INF directory with .SF file extension in the JAR archive. These checks are done on both client.jar and server.jar files. The signature file that comes from the vanilla build of the game is named MOJANGCS.SF, and stored on the META-INF directory like any other signature files. The creator of the signature file is listed as Microsoft. The crash report text includes one of these lines near the bottom: A shortened example crash report is given below: Trivia Gallery See also Notes References External links Navigation See here for more information Navigation menu |

[SOURCE: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Marketplace#Skin_packs] | [TOKENS: 1101] |
Marketplace The Marketplace (known as the Store on PlayStation) is an in-game platform where players can purchase access to content created by both Minecraft and members of the Minecraft Partner Program. Contents Usage The Marketplace is opened from the title screen, game menu (Browse Add-ons!), or dressing room, the former showing an animated button promoting new DLC and sometimes a tag. Throughout the menus are other buttons redirecting to the Marketplace, such as in resource pack or world template selection menus. Furthermore, Marketplace content is often promoted with pop-ups or inbox messages. It is only available with a stable Internet connection and a Microsoft account, and not in the trial version. The Marketplace is also available from minecraft.net, where packs can be browsed similar to the in-game menu, purchased once signed in, and even the game can be launched opening the selected pack's page in the Marketplace. The menu promotes various types of content organized into sections. With the Search tool, the player can filter for name, pack type, price, ratings, tags, individual creators, or Marketplace Pass availability. Every pack has a purchase page with more information, tags, images and videos, and purchase or download options. Packs can be added to the Wishlist using the heart icon, and the link to the pack on minecraft.net can be shared. Once obtained, packs can be downloaded to the device at any time. Depending on the type of pack, it can then be activated or played. The bottom of the purchase page allows to rate owned packs stars, which will be shown by the pack. Downloaded packs are automatically updated while in the menus; this can be toggled in the settings. Most content in the Marketplace costs money, and is purchased using Minecoins, although some content is free. Minecoins are obtained in the Marketplace with real money in selected packs, or along with promoted content in content bundles. They are saved to a player's Xbox account; on PlayStation they are called tokens and sold separately. All purchased content instantly syncs to the player's Microsoft account unless not signed into the Microsoft or console account on consoles, in which case it is saved locally to the player's device. Marketplace Pass is a monthly subscription that allows any subscribers to get access to a variety of Marketplace content that changes monthly as long as they pay a monthly fee. Included content can be activated directly from its own tab in screens with Marketplace content, such as the Create from Template screen. The Marketplace Pass is included in Realms Plus subscriptions. Content There are 5 different categories of content available on the Marketplace, including skin packs, worlds, add-ons, texture packs, and mash-up packs. All content is submitted by official Minecraft partners and is approved by the Minecraft Content Team. The Minecraft Wiki only documents officially promoted DLC, third-party content usually has its own documentation. Skin packs are collections of custom skins that players can use in both singleplayer and multiplayer games. Depending on the specific content, some skin packs provide 1 or 2 free skins to use without needing to purchase. Skin packs can be seen in the Dressing Room, allowing to enable included skins. Worlds are pre-built maps that offer wide variety of in-game experiences. Not to be confused with mash-up packs, worlds can also include custom textures, blocks, items and mobs and be bundled with bonus skins. Worlds in the Marketplace are distributed as world templates; they can be downloaded in the Create from Template screen allowing to create a world using the template. Dynamic worlds don't have a set build like normal pre-built ones, instead they can be generated like a Minecraft world. These worlds allow for a whole new experience every time because they generate differently depending on the seed. Sometimes they also include add-ons and texture packs as well. Adventure maps are self-contained experiences that focus on exploring and other types of guided gameplay. These types of worlds can range from PvP arenas to simulators and can be designed for singleplayer, multiplayer or both. Minigames are compact worlds with a specific theme or goal that are designed to be repeatable. These can feature a set of different gamemodes and variants or be designed to reset continuously. Survival spawns are starter maps that players can explore, gain loot from and expand. Maps of this type can sometimes add an entirely new aspect to the game but still allows players to experience the world as they normally would in survival mode. Texture packs, built from resource packs, allow players to change the visual appearance of worlds. These packs can also customize other in-game elements such as sounds, items, the GUI, the geometry/shape of mobs, animations, and Vibrant Visuals. Texture packs are only able to alter existing features in Minecraft and cannot add new mobs, blocks or items. Texture packs can be enabled from the Global Resources settings tab in the main menu. Unless a world or server disables global resources, they can always be enabled locally on the player's device. Mash-up packs are special bundles that combine a world, texture pack and skins. Unlike worlds, texture packs included in mash-up packs can be used across other singleplayer worlds and even servers. Add-ons are resource and behavior packs that can fully customize the game by adding new items, blocks, mobs, and more. Add-ons can be added to any world. They can be played and accessed on both singleplayer and multiplayer. History Issues Issues relating to "Marketplace" are maintained on the bug tracker. Issues should be reported and viewed there.

[SOURCE: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Add-on#Sub-packs] | [TOKENS: 1118] |
Add-on An add-on is a package format and a type of downloadable content that provides additional custom game features beyond the base game in Bedrock Edition. It contains a set of programming interfaces used for constructing and customizing certain game objects and elements, such as entities, blocks, items, biomes, structures, the user interface, and more. It is officially supported by Mojang Studios, who provide the Creator Documentation for developers. Add-ons consist of three main APIs: a resource pack for managing assets and resources, a behavior pack for defining data-driven behaviors, and the Script API for writing a set of procedural instructions to perform custom behaviors and interactions. These functions and utilities are used for video game modding. Add-ons are officially hosted on the Marketplace, where players can download or purchase them on their devices using an in-game digital currency called Minecoins. They must be submitted by members in the Minecraft Partner Program and approved by the Minecraft Content Team. Contents Overview Add-ons can be created with two types of data packs: behavior packs and resource packs. Behavior packs can be used to change gameplay and allow adding and customizing entity behaviors, loot tables, spawn rules, item behaviors, item recipes, biome characteristics, and much more. Resource packs affect how the game looks and have no effect on gameplay, and they allow adding and customizing textures, models, music, texts, and interfaces. Definitions are written in JSON files, which are organized in multiple folders by their features. This system allows users to override and modify certain features in the base game, or add unique features with their own pack. All contents of an add-on can be packaged together in a zipped .mcaddon file. An add-on file can be automatically imported by the game, which will organize all contents in the dedicated directories in com.mojang. Resource packs and behavior packs can contain other packs inside the root, known as sub-packs. A sub-pack has the same format as the main pack and the directory of a sub-pack can have any name. Sub-packs need to be specified in the manifest.json file of the main pack, where a name and minimum memory tier can also be added. For example, a pack can have multiple less resource-intensive sub-packs for lower memory tiers, but it can also be used for other types of settings. The memory tier, affecting which sub-pack is used, can be adjusted in the pack's settings menu in-game. Molang is a simple expression-based language designed for fast, data-driven calculation of values at run-time, and with a direct connection to in-game values and systems. It is used in Bedrock Edition in their add-on system with its purpose being to enable low-level systems like animation to support flexible data-driven behavior for both internal and external creators, while staying highly performant. Scripting is an add-on feature used to write a set of procedural instructions for the game to perform custom behaviors and interactions at a certain time or in response to events and actions. It lets users control behaviors of entities, blocks, and items; characteristics of the world; or an entire game loop. It is fundamentally different from the behavior pack system, the latter uses a component system with preset definitions provided by the game. Script files are written in the JavaScript programming language and loaded by the game under the scripts directory inside an add-on. Users may use TypeScript, a dialect of JavaScript, which provides better error reporting and a static type system. The Scripting API provides script modules for users to interact with the game, each module must be added as a dependency in the manifest.json, some notable ones are: The Scripting API also provides a way to define and register custom commands. The Scripting API version 2 is a major update to the Scripting API, which provides a new API to define custom components along with other major API changes that aren't backward compatible with the previous version. The Marketplace is an in-game platform where creators may sell their add-ons to the player-base. All Marketplace content must be submitted by members in the Minecraft Partner Program and approved by the Minecraft Content Team. Purchased content in the Marketplace is synchronized to the player's Microsoft account, and if they are not signed in, it is saved locally on their device. Add-ons are usually added to the Marketplace every Tuesday (originally Wednesday)[citation needed], although occasionally appearing on other days. Free add-ons are released as part of special events, for occasions such as to promote the release of A Minecraft Movie for Minecraft's 15 Years celebration and the eventful McDonald's X A Minecraft Movie promotion. In addition to the Marketplace, there are community websites dedicated to hosting community-made add-ons, although such add-ons may only be loaded on PCs and phones, whereas consoles can only access those add-ons through Realms. Loading tips Extra loading tip messages would appear if the player is loading a world with add-ons applied. The loading message box is titled "Modified World", and loading tip messages would primarily warn the player about the add-ons or resource packs applied. Here's the list of add-on applied loading tips: History Videos Tutorials from the official Minecraft Creator Channel. Quotes Within Minecraft, there are so many ways to be creative and build the worlds of your dreams. But when you want to extend Minecraft even further and introduce new mobs, items and other artifacts into your world, you’ll want to go to the next level of creation by building new Add-On packs that can transform Minecraft.

Scripting is an add-on feature used to write a set of procedural instructions for the game to perform custom behaviors and interactions at a certain time or in response to events and actions. It lets users control behaviors of entities, blocks, and items; characteristics of the world; or an entire game loop. It is fundamentally different from the behavior pack system, the latter uses a component system with preset definitions provided by the game. Script files are written in the JavaScript programming language and loaded by the game under the scripts directory inside an add-on. Users may use TypeScript, a dialect of JavaScript, which provides better error reporting and a static type system. The Scripting API provides script modules for users to interact with the game, each module must be added as a dependency in the manifest.json, some notable ones are: The Scripting API also provides a way to define and register custom commands. The Scripting API version 2 is a major update to the Scripting API, which provides a new API to define custom components along with other major API changes that aren't backward compatible with the previous version. The Marketplace is an in-game platform where creators may sell their add-ons to the player-base. All Marketplace content must be submitted by members in the Minecraft Partner Program and approved by the Minecraft Content Team. Purchased content in the Marketplace is synchronized to the player's Microsoft account, and if they are not signed in, it is saved locally on their device. Add-ons are usually added to the Marketplace every Tuesday (originally Wednesday)[citation needed], although occasionally appearing on other days. Free add-ons are released as part of special events, for occasions such as to promote the release of A Minecraft Movie for Minecraft's 15 Years celebration and the eventful McDonald's X A Minecraft Movie promotion. In addition to the Marketplace, there are community websites dedicated to hosting community-made add-ons, although such add-ons may only be loaded on PCs and phones, whereas consoles can only access those add-ons through Realms. Loading tips Extra loading tip messages would appear if the player is loading a world with add-ons applied. The loading message box is titled "Modified World", and loading tip messages would primarily warn the player about the add-ons or resource packs applied. Here's the list of add-on applied loading tips: History Videos Tutorials from the official Minecraft Creator Channel. Quotes Within Minecraft, there are so many ways to be creative and build the worlds of your dreams. But when you want to extend Minecraft even further and introduce new mobs, items and other artifacts into your world, you’ll want to go to the next level of creation by building new Add-On packs that can transform Minecraft.

Mod A mod (short for modification) is a piece of unofficial code that is injected into the game for the purpose of modifying its behavior. They can be used to enhance the game by means ranging from fixing bugs, adjusting core mechanics, to completely revamping the way the game is played with unique features. Contents Overview Mods are primarily user-created content used to alter the base game to create unique experiences that are not usually present from vanilla. They allow players to customize the look and feel of the game, give more options and customization, or expand the game with new progression and mechanics. Mods have control over various aspects of the game, where developers can modify or add custom features, such as physics, graphics, user interface, and various gameplay features (such as entities, items, blocks, world generation, and dimensions, usually through the game's registries). While many mods add content, others act as utilities that are designed to improve the game while being close to vanilla. There are optimization mods that modify the game's rendering to improve frame rates and load times, making the game more accessible on lower-end hardware (see also Tutorial:Improving frame rate). Other client side mods may also fix several bugs and improve stability of the base game, such as reducing crashes and micro-stutter, and fixing several block and item duplication bugs. Mods are usually designed for specific release versions of the game. When the game is updated, the mod must also be updated accordingly, otherwise it may no longer work for future versions. Java Edition is written in Java and runs on JVM, which for technical reasons makes creating mods relatively easy. Modding strongly depend on decompilation to see the game's source code. Because Java compiles to bytecode rather than machine code, it is highly susceptible to decompilation, allowing modders to reverse-engineer the game logic easily. Due to this, a prolific modding scene exists for that edition, which has matured over a decade, and has created several programs and tools for modding, notably mod loaders. For older versions, obfuscation maps provided by Mojang and the community which ease the process of reverse-engineering the game. The unobfuscated versions of the game also lets modders directly see the game's source code without obfuscation maps. Bedrock Edition is written in C++ and runs as machine code, which makes it technically challenging to mod. Mods for that edition exist, but are much less common and less complex, both due to technical challenges, and other reasons such as low interest from the community and add-ons providing official means of adding content to the game. In Java Edition, a mod loader is used to inject modifications into the game. Mod loaders serve as an intermediary between the game's and the mod's code, they provide two main functions for modding: (1) providing system of API and tools to develop new mods and communicate with the game, and (2) managing loading mods simultaneously while keeping them compatible with each other. There are many well-known mod loaders, such as Forge, Fabric, Quilt, and NeoForge. Each mod loader supports different system and API for developing mods. Because of this, mods designed for specific mod loader are not likely interoperable with another mod loader, and vice versa. Add-ons serve as the official modding API in Bedrock Edition, they can add new content and modify existing features and customizations in the game. In comparison to Java Edition mods, add-ons may be limited in terms of features and customization, but are far more friendly and less complex for creators. An official modding API was planned for Java Edition, called "Plugin API" (dubbed "Workbench"), but was subsequently abandoned, with no further mentions or developments of it after Java Edition 1.9 (see Mentioned features § Workbench (Plugin API)). In Bedrock Edition 1.21.20, Mojang Studios removed debug information (bedrock_server.pdb file) from Bedrock Dedicated Server, making modding more difficult for Bedrock Edition. While there are other ways to change the experience of Minecraft, such as resource packs and data packs, the ability to load these is part of the vanilla game and usually not considered modding (see Game customization). Historically, the modification of features such as advancements, enchantments, dimensions, or world generation have required the usage of mods. However, in later versions of the game, the additions and expansions of data packs and resource packs have allowed several of these features to be implemented into the game without any modification of or addition to the game's code. Most modern mod loaders allow data packs and resource packs to be included alongside a mod to provide additional data and resources, such as models or recipes. Types of mods Client mods are direct modifications of the Minecraft game files. They control and add custom content for mobs, particles, items, and blocks, such as models, sounds, textures, and GUIs, but require the server to implement the game mechanics behind them (see § Server-based). They usually modify the client software, or client.jar file. Functional client mods like Sodium and OptiFine modify and enhance client side features of the game, such as graphics fidelity and rendering, while not adding or changing any gameplay features, making them perfectly compatible with vanilla server without any modifications. Server mods are modifications to the official Minecraft server software. They control features that are handled exclusively in the server, primarily the game mechanics, such as physics, mob AI, chat, commands, player interactions (e.g. crafting, smelting, opening chests or inventory, block placement and destruction), world generation, and much more. They cannot control client side features, and are limited in terms of custom content. Most mods are installed together on the server and client side, allowing for more freedom and complete game customization. Server mods are commonly used to enhance server administration with more functionality and ease of use. They can provide tools to protect against griefing and cheating, implement tiered privileges for commands, automate server backup, monitor server performance, optimize gameplay features, and more. Most server mods are compatible with vanilla client, without requiring the same modifications on their end (see semivanilla). Most multiplayer minigames, such as spleef, capture the flag, sky wars and bed wars, are implemented using server mods. Server mods may be referred to as plugins, mainly on Spigot mod loader and its derivatives. Some are implemented as wrappers, which do not modify the server software directly, instead monitoring its output and sending commands to it, typically using the RCON protocol. A shader pack is a client mod used to alter the visuals and looks of Minecraft. They primarily change the game's graphics, and enhance it by adding shadows, lightnings, reflections, and other customization. Shader packs require a mod designed to load them, such as Iris Shaders or OptiFine. When combined with resource pack, shader packs can drastically transform the game's appearance, allowing players to customize into different styles and settings like medieval, realistic, cinematic, and cartoonish. Additionally, resource pack can include custom material data loaded by shader packs for use in physically based rendering (PBR). Modern shader packs can implement path tracing and global illumination (GI) for Minecraft, most notably, SEUS PTGI and Continuum RT have done this. A mod pack is a collections of mods that have been put together and configured so that they work together. Mod packs are often centered around a general theme like tech, quests, or magic. Mod packs often have either custom launchers or installers that make installing and running the mod pack easy. Some of the most popular mod packs include Feed The Beast, Tekkit, RLCraft, and Hexxit. In addition to making it easy to install mod pack clients, certain launchers can also download server mod packs. Modded flag If Minecraft crashes, a modified game is flagged in the crash report. This is possible by first checking the client or server brand is vanilla branded, then verifying if the Java class (where the game crashed from) is signed from a signature file, which is stored on the META-INF directory with .SF file extension in the JAR archive. These checks are done on both client.jar and server.jar files. The signature file that comes from the vanilla build of the game is named MOJANGCS.SF, and stored on the META-INF directory like any other signature files. The creator of the signature file is listed as Microsoft. The crash report text includes one of these lines near the bottom: A shortened example crash report is given below: Trivia Gallery See also Notes References External links Navigation See here for more information Navigation menu |

[SOURCE: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Brown_Carpet] | [TOKENS: 1058] |
Carpet Yes Yes (64) Any tool 0.1 0.1 No Yes JE: NoBE: Yes Yes (JE: 60, BE & edu: 30) Yes Carpets are thin variants of wool that can be dyed in any of the 16 colors. Contents Obtaining Carpets can be mined using any tool, or without a tool. Unlike wool, carpets are not destroyed quicker when using shears. White and light gray carpet can be found in igloos. If its basement generates (50% chance), red carpet can also be found. All carpet colors except orange and light blue[BE only] generate within woodland mansions. Yellow, white, and green carpets generate in plains villages. Lime, white, and green carpets generate in desert villages. Blue and red carpets generate in snowy tundra villages. Orange, white, and red carpets generate in savanna villages. Purple, white, and red carpets generate in taiga villages. Gray, blue, light blue, and cyan carpets generate in ancient cities. Usage Carpet has the same visual thickness as a pressure plate. It has a hitbox of 1⁄16 of a block and covers the entire surface of the block it is placed on. This thickness prevents mob spawning. Carpet can be placed on any block, including non-solid blocks, except air. When placed on grass or fern, they break and the carpet is placed on the block below. When placed on vines, the topmost block of vines breaks and the carpet is placed on the block below, any vines blocks below the first one don't break. It can even be placed over water blocks, but to do so you must target an adjacent block with a visible hitbox. Carpet can be pushed and pulled by pistons but pops off if pushed onto a hole or pulled downward. It can also break falling sand and gravel. Carpet is an opaque block but does not decrease light going through it. Because of this and the fact that it can be placed on any block, a common decorative strategy is to place carpet on a light-emitting block in the floor, illuminating a room and hiding the light source at the same time. Carpets can be placed on top of fences and walls to allow the player to jump on top of them while still preventing animals and mobs from crossing. This is because mobs do not try jump over fences and walls, even with a carpet above. In Java Edition, if a campfire is placed beneath a beehive to pacify bees, the campfire can be placed below ground and a carpet placed over the campfire to protect bees from the fire. In Bedrock Edition, a carpet over a campfire removes the campfire's pacifying effect on bees. If a carpet is placed so that it lays on top of a hopper, the hopper can still collect items through the carpet. This is because hoppers can collect items from less than a full block above in Java Edition, or less than 3⁄4 of a block above in Bedrock Edition. Carpets can also be placed over other carpets. Because mob AIs treats carpets as if they are air blocks, they used to be unable to walk over two or more layers of carpets. Nowadays, a mob will spin erratically upon walking onto a double carpet, and seemingly cancel their pathfinding attempt after a short while. Once targeting a new block or entity, they will either step off and resume their pathfinding normally, or walk onto another double-carpet block and spin again.[Java Edition only] Double-carpet barriers can thus be traversed one block at a time, by any mob, and no longer work. Similarly, endermen are unable to teleport onto double carpet layers. Carpets, similar to wool, dampen vibrations from sculk sensors. Placing or breaking a carpet does not create a vibration, nor does walking on one or throwing an item on one. They do not however prevent vibrations from other blocks from travelling through them. Llamas can be equipped with carpets in their carpet slot (). Each carpet color shows as a different patterned rug on the llama's back. For example, the green carpet has a creeper's face, while the purple carpet has the eyes of an enderman. Carpets cannot be enchanted in Survival mode. However, in Java Edition Creative mode, just like any other item, it can be enchanted with any enchantment using an anvil. While most enchantments have no effect, Thorns, Feather Falling, Protection, Fire Protection, Projectile Protection, Blast Protection, Curse of Binding, and Curse of Vanishing apply their effects to the llama as expected. Carpet can be used as a fuel in furnaces, smelting 0.335 items per carpet item.[Java Edition only] When placed on the top half of blocks like tall grass, large fern, or vines they break and the carpet drops as an item.

[SOURCE: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Ferns] | [TOKENS: 456] |
Fern Yes Yes (64) 0 0 No Yes Yes (60) Yes 7 PLANT Ferns are a non-solid plant block found only in certain biomes and have the same characteristics as grass. Contents Obtaining When broken normally, ferns have a 12.5% chance of dropping 1 unit of wheat seeds when destroyed. This is affected by the Fortune enchantment, dropping 1-3, 1-5, or 1-7 wheat seeds respectively with Fortune I, II, and III. Ferns can be obtained as an item if mined by shears. Large ferns also drop two ferns when broken using shears. Ferns occur naturally only in jungle, taiga, snowy taiga and old growth taiga biomes. Wandering traders may sell ferns for 1 emerald. In Bedrock Edition, bone meal can be used on a grass block to grow ferns. Usage Ferns can be placed on grass blocks, podzol, mycelium, dirt, coarse dirt, rooted dirt, mud, muddy mangrove roots, moss blocks, pale moss blocks and farmland. Ferns can also be placed in flower pots. When a sheep eats a fern, the block is destroyed, and a sheared sheep regrows its wool. Baby sheep graze grass and ferns much more often than adults and mature 1 minute faster when grazing. Placing a fern into a composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1. Bone meal can be used on a fern to create a large fern. List of colors The coloration of grass plants is dependent on the biome they are in. A grass block always uses the color set to its location, regardless of how it was placed or of its source. This affects the side and top of the block. In Bedrock Edition, biome colors also appear on maps. These values are generated by the biome dyeing algorithm. See biome colors for more information.

[SOURCE: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Slab#Legacy_Console_Edition] | [TOKENS: 833] |
Slab A slab is a half-height version of its respective block. Contents Variants There are 61 variants of slabs: Obtaining All slabs have the same crafting recipe format, with one block resulting in two slabs each. All slabs except wooden slabs and bamboo mosaic slabs can be obtained by stonecutting, at the same rate as with crafting. Usage Slabs can occupy either the top half or the bottom half of a block, or both: Slabs cannot be oriented vertically. In Bedrock Edition a single slab (top or bottom) is transparent to light and diffuses sky light, while a double slab is opaque. The empty half of a slab block is also transparent to mobs, unlike other transparent blocks such as fences and glass, which players can see through but mobs cannot. A bottom placed on top of a hopper is transparent to items; the items fall through the bottom slab into the hopper. Without a hopper attached below, a bottom slab behaves as a solid surface. Falling block entities (like sand, gravel, and concrete powder) turn into their dropped form if they land on a bottom slab, as when they fall on a torch. Mobs see a slab as a full block when pathfinding. They can spawn on top slabs and double slabs, but not on bottom slabs. This can be used to prevent mob spawning in certain areas, such as mob farms. Generally, the top face of top slabs, the bottom face of bottom slabs, and all faces of double slabs are handled as solid blocks. Due to this, blocks that require a solid surface for placement can be placed on these faces. Double slabs are handled as a single block instead of two different slabs; as such, breaking one destroys the whole block and drops two slabs, as opposed to breaking only one slab within the same block-space. "Double slabs" that are not aligned to the grid (i.e. a bottom slab on top of a top slab) are handled as separate blocks and are broken individually. Redstone dust placed on a top slab receives signals from redstone dust one block lower and adjacent, but cannot transmit signals down to that block. Due to the way blast rays propagate from an explosion, bottom slabs provide extremely effective absorption to explosions directly on top of them. In some cases, only the slab is destroyed from a TNT explosion directly on top of it. Explosions from end crystals and creepers are also weakened. Sneaking reduces the player's hitbox height to 1.5 blocks, allowing the player to fit through such a gap (for example, walking over a bottom slab with one block of air above it, or in a two block high tunnel with an upper slab on the ceiling). A player cannot walk from a block of soul sand directly up to a bottom slab without jumping – this applies not just to soul sand, but to any block 7⁄8 of a block high or shorter, because the maximum step height of the player is 0.6 of a block. The player can walk off a bottom slab while sneaking, because the sneaking prevents falling only when the distance is higher than one half block. If a single slab is placed in a water source block, or water is placed onto a single slab using a water bucket, the empty half of that slab's block is waterlogged. If a slab is placed in flowing water, a pocket of air is created in the unfilled half of the block. If the player's head is in this pocket, the player can breathe and see as clearly as from an air block. In Java Edition, if a single slab is placed in between two water sources or waterlogged blocks, the slab becomes waterlogged. A minecart on powered rails is not repelled by a slab, although it is repelled by a slab with a minecart on top.

They can provide tools to protect against griefing and cheating, implement tiered privileges for commands, automate server backup, monitor server performance, optimize gameplay features, and more. Most server mods are compatible with vanilla client, without requiring the same modifications on their end (see semivanilla). Most multiplayer minigames, such as spleef, capture the flag, sky wars and bed wars, are implemented using server mods. Server mods may be referred to as plugins, mainly on Spigot mod loader and its derivatives. Some are implemented as wrappers, which do not modify the server software directly, instead monitoring its output and sending commands to it, typically using the RCON protocol. A shader pack is a client mod used to alter the visuals and looks of Minecraft. They primarily change the game's graphics, and enhance it by adding shadows, lightnings, reflections, and other customization. Shader packs require a mod designed to load them, such as Iris Shaders or OptiFine. When combined with resource pack, shader packs can drastically transform the game's appearance, allowing players to customize into different styles and settings like medieval, realistic, cinematic, and cartoonish. Additionally, resource pack can include custom material data loaded by shader packs for use in physically based rendering (PBR). Modern shader packs can implement path tracing and global illumination (GI) for Minecraft, most notably, SEUS PTGI and Continuum RT have done this. A mod pack is a collections of mods that have been put together and configured so that they work together. Mod packs are often centered around a general theme like tech, quests, or magic. Mod packs often have either custom launchers or installers that make installing and running the mod pack easy. Some of the most popular mod packs include Feed The Beast, Tekkit, RLCraft, and Hexxit. In addition to making it easy to install mod pack clients, certain launchers can also download server mod packs. Modded flag If Minecraft crashes, a modified game is flagged in the crash report. This is possible by first checking the client or server brand is vanilla branded, then verifying if the Java class (where the game crashed from) is signed from a signature file, which is stored on the META-INF directory with .SF file extension in the JAR archive. These checks are done on both client.jar and server.jar files. The signature file that comes from the vanilla build of the game is named MOJANGCS.SF, and stored on the META-INF directory like any other signature files.

Slab A slab is a half-height version of its respective block. Contents Variants There are 61 variants of slabs: Obtaining All slabs have the same crafting recipe format, with one block resulting in two slabs each. All slabs except wooden slabs and bamboo mosaic slabs can be obtained by stonecutting, at the same rate as with crafting. Usage Slabs can occupy either the top half or the bottom half of a block, or both: Slabs cannot be oriented vertically. In Bedrock Edition a single slab (top or bottom) is transparent to light and diffuses sky light, while a double slab is opaque. The empty half of a slab block is also transparent to mobs, unlike other transparent blocks such as fences and glass, which players can see through but mobs cannot. A bottom placed on top of a hopper is transparent to items; the items fall through the bottom slab into the hopper. Without a hopper attached below, a bottom slab behaves as a solid surface. Falling block entities (like sand, gravel, and concrete powder) turn into their dropped form if they land on a bottom slab, as when they fall on a torch. Mobs see a slab as a full block when pathfinding. They can spawn on top slabs and double slabs, but not on bottom slabs. This can be used to prevent mob spawning in certain areas, such as mob farms. Generally, the top face of top slabs, the bottom face of bottom slabs, and all faces of double slabs are handled as solid blocks. Due to this, blocks that require a solid surface for placement can be placed on these faces. Double slabs are handled as a single block instead of two different slabs; as such, breaking one destroys the whole block and drops two slabs, as opposed to breaking only one slab within the same block-space. "Double slabs" that are not aligned to the grid (i.e. a bottom slab on top of a top slab) are handled as separate blocks and are broken individually. Redstone dust placed on a top slab receives signals from redstone dust one block lower and adjacent, but cannot transmit signals down to that block. Due to the way blast rays propagate from an explosion, bottom slabs provide extremely effective absorption to explosions directly on top of them. In some cases, only the slab is destroyed from a TNT explosion directly on top of it. Explosions from end crystals and creepers are also weakened. Sneaking reduces the player's hitbox height to 1.5 blocks, allowing the player to fit through such a gap (for example, walking over a bottom slab with one block of air above it, or in a two block high tunnel with an upper slab on the ceiling). A player cannot walk from a block of soul sand directly up to a bottom slab without jumping – this applies not just to soul sand, but to any block 7⁄8 of a block high or shorter, because the maximum step height of the player is 0.6 of a block. The player can walk off a bottom slab while sneaking, because the sneaking prevents falling only when the distance is higher than one half block. If a single slab is placed in a water source block, or water is placed onto a single slab using a water bucket, the empty half of that slab's block is waterlogged. If a slab is placed in flowing water, a pocket of air is created in the unfilled half of the block. If the player's head is in this pocket, the player can breathe and see as clearly as from an air block. In Java Edition, if a single slab is placed in between two water sources or waterlogged blocks, the slab becomes waterlogged. A minecart on powered rails is not repelled by a slab, although it is repelled by a slab with a minecart on top.

[SOURCE: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Add-on#Quotes] | [TOKENS: 1118] |
Add-on An add-on is a package format and a type of downloadable content that provides additional custom game features beyond the base game in Bedrock Edition. It contains a set of programming interfaces used for constructing and customizing certain game objects and elements, such as entities, blocks, items, biomes, structures, the user interface, and more. It is officially supported by Mojang Studios, who provide the Creator Documentation for developers. Add-ons consist of three main APIs: a resource pack for managing assets and resources, a behavior pack for defining data-driven behaviors, and the Script API for writing a set of procedural instructions to perform custom behaviors and interactions. These functions and utilities are used for video game modding. Add-ons are officially hosted on the Marketplace, where players can download or purchase them on their devices using an in-game digital currency called Minecoins. They must be submitted by members in the Minecraft Partner Program and approved by the Minecraft Content Team. Contents Overview Add-ons can be created with two types of data packs: behavior packs and resource packs. Behavior packs can be used to change gameplay and allow adding and customizing entity behaviors, loot tables, spawn rules, item behaviors, item recipes, biome characteristics, and much more. Resource packs affect how the game looks and have no effect on gameplay, and they allow adding and customizing textures, models, music, texts, and interfaces. Definitions are written in JSON files, which are organized in multiple folders by their features. This system allows users to override and modify certain features in the base game, or add unique features with their own pack. All contents of an add-on can be packaged together in a zipped .mcaddon file. An add-on file can be automatically imported by the game, which will organize all contents in the dedicated directories in com.mojang. Resource packs and behavior packs can contain other packs inside the root, known as sub-packs. A sub-pack has the same format as the main pack and the directory of a sub-pack can have any name. Sub-packs need to be specified in the manifest.json file of the main pack, where a name and minimum memory tier can also be added. For example, a pack can have multiple less resource-intensive sub-packs for lower memory tiers, but it can also be used for other types of settings. The memory tier, affecting which sub-pack is used, can be adjusted in the pack's settings menu in-game. Molang is a simple expression-based language designed for fast, data-driven calculation of values at run-time, and with a direct connection to in-game values and systems. It is used in Bedrock Edition in their add-on system with its purpose being to enable low-level systems like animation to support flexible data-driven behavior for both internal and external creators, while staying highly performant. Scripting is an add-on feature used to write a set of procedural instructions for the game to perform custom behaviors and interactions at a certain time or in response to events and actions. It lets users control behaviors of entities, blocks, and items; characteristics of the world; or an entire game loop. It is fundamentally different from the behavior pack system, the latter uses a component system with preset definitions provided by the game. Script files are written in the JavaScript programming language and loaded by the game under the scripts directory inside an add-on. Users may use TypeScript, a dialect of JavaScript, which provides better error reporting and a static type system. The Scripting API provides script modules for users to interact with the game, each module must be added as a dependency in the manifest.json, some notable ones are: The Scripting API also provides a way to define and register custom commands. The Scripting API version 2 is a major update to the Scripting API, which provides a new API to define custom components along with other major API changes that aren't backward compatible with the previous version. The Marketplace is an in-game platform where creators may sell their add-ons to the player-base. All Marketplace content must be submitted by members in the Minecraft Partner Program and approved by the Minecraft Content Team. Purchased content in the Marketplace is synchronized to the player's Microsoft account, and if they are not signed in, it is saved locally on their device. Add-ons are usually added to the Marketplace every Tuesday (originally Wednesday)[citation needed], although occasionally appearing on other days. Free add-ons are released as part of special events, for occasions such as to promote the release of A Minecraft Movie for Minecraft's 15 Years celebration and the eventful McDonald's X A Minecraft Movie promotion. In addition to the Marketplace, there are community websites dedicated to hosting community-made add-ons, although such add-ons may only be loaded on PCs and phones, whereas consoles can only access those add-ons through Realms. Loading tips Extra loading tip messages would appear if the player is loading a world with add-ons applied. The loading message box is titled "Modified World", and loading tip messages would primarily warn the player about the add-ons or resource packs applied. Here's the list of add-on applied loading tips: History Videos Tutorials from the official Minecraft Creator Channel. Quotes Within Minecraft, there are so many ways to be creative and build the worlds of your dreams. But when you want to extend Minecraft even further and introduce new mobs, items and other artifacts into your world, you’ll want to go to the next level of creation by building new Add-On packs that can transform Minecraft.

[SOURCE: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Brown_Concrete_Powder] | [TOKENS: 412] |
Concrete Powder Yes Yes (64) 0.5 0.5 No No No No Concrete powder is a gravity-affected block that is converted to concrete when touching water. It comes in the sixteen dye colors. Contents Obtaining Concrete powder can be mined with any tool or by hand, but using a shovel is the quickest method. The crafting recipe is shapeless; the order of ingredients does not matter. Concrete powder is renewable as all of its crafting ingredients are themselves renewable. However, without glitches, sand is renewably obtained only through the wandering trader, which spawns infrequently and allows a limited number of trades per spawn. Therefore, concrete powder is more easily obtained by simply harvesting naturally-occurring sand. Usage Concrete powder falls when there is a non-solid block beneath it. If a concrete powder block comes into contact with water, it solidifies into a block of concrete. Specifically, the block has to be placed into, placed next to, or fall into flowing water, a water source block, or a waterlogged block[Java Edition only]. If placed next to a waterlogged block, it must be adjacent to the sides where water can flow out from, such as the open sides of stairs, but not the back side of stairs or any sides of waterlogged leaves. It does not solidify in midair falling past water. If it lands next to water, it solidifies only after a block update. Rain or splash water bottles also have no effect on concrete powder. Concrete powder in item form also does not become concrete. Concrete powder placed directly at water makes the placement sound of concrete. Concrete powder can be placed under note blocks to produce "snare drum" sound.

Contents Appearance The MD3 test mobs come in several variations, which use character models and animations from the game Quake III Arena: Biker, Bitterman, Doom, Hunter, Klesk, Mynx, Phobos, Ranger, Razor, Sarge, and Uriel. Their textures have a lower resolution compared to the original models. Some characters appear in their blue team outfits, have textures placed on incorrect meshes, and lack transparency. Sometimes, their animation is glitched and the models appear to walk bent. Spawning The MD3 test mobs spawn randomly all over the world. Behavior The MD3 test mobs exhibit the basic monster behavior, walking toward and attacking the player. They can jump, and deal 3HP or 4HP damage when they touch the player. Their appearance has no effect on their behavior, which is identical for all model variations. History Gallery References Navigation Navigation menu |

[SOURCE: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Mod#Notes] | [TOKENS: 1752] |
Mod A mod (short for modification) is a piece of unofficial code that is injected into the game for the purpose of modifying its behavior. They can be used to enhance the game by means ranging from fixing bugs, adjusting core mechanics, to completely revamping the way the game is played with unique features. Contents Overview Mods are primarily user-created content used to alter the base game to create unique experiences that are not usually present from vanilla. They allow players to customize the look and feel of the game, give more options and customization, or expand the game with new progression and mechanics. Mods have control over various aspects of the game, where developers can modify or add custom features, such as physics, graphics, user interface, and various gameplay features (such as entities, items, blocks, world generation, and dimensions, usually through the game's registries). While many mods add content, others act as utilities that are designed to improve the game while being close to vanilla. There are optimization mods that modify the game's rendering to improve frame rates and load times, making the game more accessible on lower-end hardware (see also Tutorial:Improving frame rate). Other client side mods may also fix several bugs and improve stability of the base game, such as reducing crashes and micro-stutter, and fixing several block and item duplication bugs. Mods are usually designed for specific release versions of the game. When the game is updated, the mod must also be updated accordingly, otherwise it may no longer work for future versions. Java Edition is written in Java and runs on JVM, which for technical reasons makes creating mods relatively easy. Modding strongly depend on decompilation to see the game's source code. Because Java compiles to bytecode rather than machine code, it is highly susceptible to decompilation, allowing modders to reverse-engineer the game logic easily. Due to this, a prolific modding scene exists for that edition, which has matured over a decade, and has created several programs and tools for modding, notably mod loaders. For older versions, obfuscation maps provided by Mojang and the community which ease the process of reverse-engineering the game. The unobfuscated versions of the game also lets modders directly see the game's source code without obfuscation maps. Bedrock Edition is written in C++ and runs as machine code, which makes it technically challenging to mod. Mods for that edition exist, but are much less common and less complex, both due to technical challenges, and other reasons such as low interest from the community and add-ons providing official means of adding content to the game. In Java Edition, a mod loader is used to inject modifications into the game. Mod loaders serve as an intermediary between the game's and the mod's code, they provide two main functions for modding: (1) providing system of API and tools to develop new mods and communicate with the game, and (2) managing loading mods simultaneously while keeping them compatible with each other. There are many well-known mod loaders, such as Forge, Fabric, Quilt, and NeoForge. Each mod loader supports different system and API for developing mods. Because of this, mods designed for specific mod loader are not likely interoperable with another mod loader, and vice versa. Add-ons serve as the official modding API in Bedrock Edition, they can add new content and modify existing features and customizations in the game. In comparison to Java Edition mods, add-ons may be limited in terms of features and customization, but are far more friendly and less complex for creators. An official modding API was planned for Java Edition, called "Plugin API" (dubbed "Workbench"), but was subsequently abandoned, with no further mentions or developments of it after Java Edition 1.9 (see Mentioned features § Workbench (Plugin API)). In Bedrock Edition 1.21.20, Mojang Studios removed debug information (bedrock_server.pdb file) from Bedrock Dedicated Server, making modding more difficult for Bedrock Edition. While there are other ways to change the experience of Minecraft, such as resource packs and data packs, the ability to load these is part of the vanilla game and usually not considered modding (see Game customization). Historically, the modification of features such as advancements, enchantments, dimensions, or world generation have required the usage of mods. However, in later versions of the game, the additions and expansions of data packs and resource packs have allowed several of these features to be implemented into the game without any modification of or addition to the game's code. Most modern mod loaders allow data packs and resource packs to be included alongside a mod to provide additional data and resources, such as models or recipes. Types of mods Client mods are direct modifications of the Minecraft game files. They control and add custom content for mobs, particles, items, and blocks, such as models, sounds, textures, and GUIs, but require the server to implement the game mechanics behind them (see § Server-based). They usually modify the client software, or client.jar file. Functional client mods like Sodium and OptiFine modify and enhance client side features of the game, such as graphics fidelity and rendering, while not adding or changing any gameplay features, making them perfectly compatible with vanilla server without any modifications. Server mods are modifications to the official Minecraft server software. They control features that are handled exclusively in the server, primarily the game mechanics, such as physics, mob AI, chat, commands, player interactions (e.g. crafting, smelting, opening chests or inventory, block placement and destruction), world generation, and much more. They cannot control client side features, and are limited in terms of custom content. Most mods are installed together on the server and client side, allowing for more freedom and complete game customization. Server mods are commonly used to enhance server administration with more functionality and ease of use. They can provide tools to protect against griefing and cheating, implement tiered privileges for commands, automate server backup, monitor server performance, optimize gameplay features, and more. Most server mods are compatible with vanilla client, without requiring the same modifications on their end (see semivanilla). Most multiplayer minigames, such as spleef, capture the flag, sky wars and bed wars, are implemented using server mods. Server mods may be referred to as plugins, mainly on Spigot mod loader and its derivatives. Some are implemented as wrappers, which do not modify the server software directly, instead monitoring its output and sending commands to it, typically using the RCON protocol. A shader pack is a client mod used to alter the visuals and looks of Minecraft. They primarily change the game's graphics, and enhance it by adding shadows, lightnings, reflections, and other customization. Shader packs require a mod designed to load them, such as Iris Shaders or OptiFine. When combined with resource pack, shader packs can drastically transform the game's appearance, allowing players to customize into different styles and settings like medieval, realistic, cinematic, and cartoonish. Additionally, resource pack can include custom material data loaded by shader packs for use in physically based rendering (PBR). Modern shader packs can implement path tracing and global illumination (GI) for Minecraft, most notably, SEUS PTGI and Continuum RT have done this. A mod pack is a collections of mods that have been put together and configured so that they work together. Mod packs are often centered around a general theme like tech, quests, or magic.
