Hey everyone, welcome to the weathering effect.
Episode 77 today's date is January, 10th 2021.
And I did not yawn /. Not sneeze in the middle of the
outro for the pre-show or does versus done to the rescue in
Webb's house. It quiet, sneeze and cough.
Did not hear well it was a dice, a cough I meant yawn.
Yeah you did say yawn, I just hear things different.
By the way, my name is Jimbo. You may know me as gymba slice
23. So what has your week been so
far? What has your week been?
Yeah, my week's been good. It's been a busy week.
I've got a lot of little things done.
Starting with my episode that came out on Monday or going to
come out on Monday depending on your time travel abilities.
I bought a honey farm both the comb and bottle Farm.
Very fun, farms to build, especially when you yourself,
don't have to go get the bees and breed, them was able to
black market, purchase them from Abney.
So that was really nice, Gigi's Albany for helping me out and
the farm itself is super cool. So I've got the two Farms facing
each other and whenever they activate and do their little
Cycles, all the drops, go into one item.
Elevator Later, which then runs across the length of the room.
And it's Ling's the items as hard and fast as packed ice will
let it do at this honey wall. So the items just like a drip
down this wall of Honey. Nice and slow and it's like
raining be drops. It's awesome and then it goes
into an item's. Ordering gets put away nice and
neat. I love that room.
Such a fun room to be in. It looks so cool.
Just yeah, there's bees in there.
But yeah the what the way. Have the items on display
sliding down the wall is super sweet.
I suggest everyone watch that episode because it's I haven't
seen anything like it. Pretty cool.
Yeah, and I got the idea from right, I can't take any credit
for. I saw somebody on Reddit was
doing it with like their iron farm drops and I was like oh man
that's great. I'm getting ready to do.
A bee farm, that would work perfect in the be for her Gigi's
to have her posted at it, like three or four people started
posting that the way. I saw one of them read.
It's a great place to find weird.
Little bits of inspiration. Oh yeah, I suggest people going
there and everything. It'll go in there as much as I
should. But every time I seem to go in
there, I'm lost. Yeah.
At looking at all these different inventive ways to
build other than the Honey Farm. I worked on a face, Avatar logo,
something. I've been wanting to do the last
couple weeks where a lot of people will take their Minecraft
character and just chop out the Ace and use that kind of as a
logo or an avatar and stuff. And I was like yeah that's cool
and stuff, but there's nothing special about it.
So my plan was I took all the layers of the Face logo.
So like the hair, the beard, the eyes, the skin and made them
into their own little layer and added a drop effect.
So it's a 3D looking face Avatar without being 3D.
I thought that was really cool. Hmm.
Mmm. Have I seen this yet?
It's on the Discord. It's really subtle.
Your logo for the Discord. Yeah I'm still playing with it.
Okay. Yeah.
It's pretty subtle. Yeah up close.
You can really see it. Yeah it's hard to tell so like I
have two different ones. I've got one called Soft 3D and
one that's called harsh 3D so whenever it does the really
small Avatar icon like Discord, I use the harsh 3D because it
situates the Is more, okay? But when I'm doing like a banner
or something like that, I use the soft one because the, the
dark lines are the drop Shadows not as hard because it's a
bigger image. You don't need it to be to
understand what's going on. Yeah, I see I could definitely
see a now. Getting the image as big as I
get it. Nice.
Yeah it looks good. Yeah.
It's fun to work with. I always like trying to do some
kind of graphic design differentiates myself.
Yeah, not very good at it but it's fun to try.
Why? Definitely?
I've got one other thing, but I would rather wait and let you
tell me how your weeks been before we jump on it.
Okay. Yeah.
Actually did a lot of stuff around the base you did.
Yeah, I got to finish the bowl. All the black stone is down.
I even did, like, the rim of the bowl.
This is in my episode today, Sunday.
It was out yesterday. Saturday, you'll be listening
this Wednesday. So it'll be out there on YouTube
if you want to see it. I also get started.
On the Interiors of the towers. I have done pretty much nothing
inside there, so while I was no waiting around trying to figure
out stuff to do, I kind of was just jumping back and forth and
I didn't really record anything. And I just started once you hit
that flow and you want to see how things look.
Sometimes you just finish it. And I went ahead, and I would, I
just finish the room and I have a cool effect on the ceiling
with Cauldrons the coldren ceiling.
Look, it looks really cool. I love cauldron ceilings.
They're gorgeous. Yeah, me too.
I was a great opportunity to use it there.
I don't know. I'd there's a little bit more.
I want to do. Yeah.
So far that's about it. I do want to start on my storage
area. I have boxes everywhere, some
boxes, I don't know what's in, you really do need a storage
room. Yeah, so I'm probably going to
start on that next episode. Most But there's still some
interior work. I need to put in place just to
know where these boxes are going to go got to get that done.
First, are you going to do an auto sorting system, kind of
like I have? Or is it going to be a manual
one? I'm gonna make it automated.
If I can, I want to make it automated problem is I have this
stupid thing I'm doing is you're totally stupid to where I have
to do the Redstone so. Oh yeah whole yeah.
I have to try to make an automated sort of Sorting system
by myself, at least. I'm going to give it a shot.
Gotta give it a shot called in Magoo, for the Shocker loader
system because though, I was able to get to work in Creative
is way too bulky and Magoo's fit, perfect within my design.
So yeah, yeah, we'll see how it goes.
See how that goes, but that's next on the agenda.
Yeah. Oh man, you're going to have fun
with that. There's like some of the hardest
things to design. Oh, I know.
In this. So I don't have one.
The funny thing is I was like oh I've got a perfect design for
Jimbo, it's small and Compact and you can use shoulder boxes
if you don't want to use chests. And I was just like, oh wait,
he's got to build a, his self have fun.
Yeah, it's not. It's not gonna be fun.
It might be listening. This supposed to expand my
Redstone abilities. That's what this is all about.
Could make them worse. We'll see.
Just wait till you get to my belief now, where it's like, you
know what expanding my horizons stink?
X, I'm going back to what's comfortable.
When I'm going to make, what I do comfortably better than
before. Yeah, I'm kind of leaning that
way. See, I could Magoo came over
built that shulker loader in. Like, no time.
I looked at it, he goes. Okay, tell me how this works.
In my eyes went cross-eyed for a minute because I did not know
what I was looking at or how he was able to put this thing
together and yeah, it can be frightening, sometimes trying to
do something like that. Never done before.
Yeah. But gotta give it a shot.
I'm going to give it a shot. Yeah, give it a shot.
You got this. It'd be fun content at least.
Yeah. Alright.
So back to the other thing that quote unquote, I've done this
week and it goes back a little bit to something.
We talked about the pre-show in getting sand, it harvesting
sand, whether it be a far more, just mining it in the desert,
and everything like that. And I had an idea for a new
quote unquote crafting table that seems Kind of obvious.
And I'm wondering why we don't have one yet, right?
Stick with me, you've heard this one in the Stream.
I did because I did live stream yesterday and that's when it
really hit me. It's like, why is this not in
the game? But like, so, you have smooth
Stone. And then you have Kabul.
Yeah, gravel. And you have smooth sandstone
and you have Sandstone, you have sand it all.
Those can kind of be crafted together.
Make your, why can't I get a table?
That's a Crusher that can turn smooth Stone into Kabul.
And then turn Kabul into gravel. Like I mean, it seems like a
natural progression, right? Mmm.
Imagine taking smooth Sandstone to Sandstone to sand, we could
polish Sandstone. We can smelt Kabul to get the
smooth variations and stuff like that.
But there's no way to go back in real life.
It would be harder to put sand in the sand Stone.
Then to make Sandstone into sand.
You can just grind it up, makes an Sands, got to be a lot easier
to make. Then say in stone, give me a
hammer. Watch me work.
Yeah, I mean you can do the hammer.
Yeah, crushing station. That would be interesting.
I wonder what it would be. Just you think like a grinder of
some, some sort. But we have a grindstone.
Yeah. So it's definitely something to
think about thinking about it. I went to the blast furnace
because to me a blast furnace is almost useless almost uses.
The only thing I would want to use a blast furnace for were to
be deterrence and The glass and you can't do that anyways.
No dude. So to me I definitely agree with
it should take some kind of fuel source to get these items back
into the original state. So taking the blast furnace and
maybe renaming it from blast furnace to something else.
High pressure cooker or something weird like that maybe
Blast Furnace still works and maybe a little T and T animation
goes off whenever you're trying to turn.
Turn smooth Stone into Kabul or something.
I don't know. Well, I've been watching a lot
of like forging videos. Uh-huh.
That's something I'm starting to get interested in.
You know, people making knives and just other steel products.
I know that the heat solidifies it.
So I don't know if a furnace would be a good idea to make it
back into sand, very true. Well, my first thought was
you're talking about. The foraging stuff, was that big
hammer that you see that? They said they stand on a pedal
and it just pow pow pow pow pow and they On the steel through it
or whatever it is the flatten it or shape it yet.
Yeah, my first thought was that but that felt a little too out
of the realm for Minecraft so that I went well what something
useless that maybe I can give a new property to and maybe it
still is a blast furnace that has like I said, maybe it's a
quote unquote Blast Furnace, where maybe instead of fuel,
like, in Rod or not in rods, but blaze rods and stuff, you got to
feed it T and T and then it'll explode.
The items. Hmm.
Yeah. Your cut well, hey, you're cute
kind of using saying to make saying, though, that's true.
It's not a full-fledged thought-out process.
Hmm. That's for the experts at
Mojang. Yeah, I really like the idea.
Hmm. I don't see how it is.
It in the game. I always thought about that.
Like I have all this Sandstone. Maybe I can get saying out of
it. No, it only goes one way when
she gets Hanson, you can't go back.
So yeah, I've always thought about it being a some kind of
way to Undo a craft, let me drop my anvil on it, turn it into
sand. There you go, something another
new item, a hammer and then I'm going to have to complain about
now. I have to carry this hair more
around with. Yeah to make saying it got to
make saying, need my hammer. Yeah, where's my hammer?
All right. Should we move on to the news?
Yes, for me. There was no snap shot news but
you found news. Yeah, I'm not sure if this was
from last week's episode. I'd maybe came out just after we
recorded it but we have news that Minecraft Earth is ending
in June. Hmm.
Later this year middle of this year, I did notice that they're
special perks going on at the moment like reduce Ruby prices
so you might want to take advantage of that if you haven't
tried it already and it's a lot more details at the website
minecraft.net about what's going on as far as I know.
They're going to stop, I don't know updating it, I don't even
Oh yeah. They might even be taken off the
market completely. Like I've I got a few details
but the rest of it will be on there.
Yeah, so like, if you already have the game, you can continue
to play the game. There just won't be any updates
for it, but if you haven't gotten the game as of June, it
will no longer be on the marketplace.
So you won't be able to buy it or download it or whatever it is
said June 30th. Yeah so when it's ending so if
you haven't tried it already go ahead and check out Minecraft.
The Earth before it's gone. I do I remember when they
announced Minecrafters and I was just like this is not a game
that's going to work. Yeah, it's like hate to be a
told you so because I like the fact that the Minecraft gaming
area they're like they're pushing boundaries and stuff,
but that was just I don't like the VR fad or it's not even be
our, it's augmented reality. I don't like that D.
It seems a lot more difficult to play.
Yeah, it have fun while playing in that.
Experience. Now, I think you like Pokemon
nailed it, Pokemon go. Mmm.
Great way to interact with the environment and play Pokemon
Minecraft was a little bit more difficult.
I feel there is a like, a documentary with mambo and green
going around and play Minecraft Earth different parts of the
world. It's pretty cool.
But yeah, there's not much about it.
You don't hear about it too much besides that.
Well, let's not forget the absolutely horrid timing of
putting out a game. I'm that requires you to be on
the moving going, places to get new stuff in the middle of a
pandemic, when everyone's telling you to stay inside.
Yeah. Right.
That's true. Yeah, bad timing.
Oh well, haven't you got to play it?
To be honest. Yeah, well I saw like the Apple
version and Android versions were different and the fact that
the Apple version could do more because of the software and
Hardware on the iPhones. Hmm, I didn't know that and I
was just like, well, I don't I have an iPhone.
So if I can't take full advantage of stuff, it's it's
worth it. It might have been but I don't
like gaming on my phone. I'm an old man.
Give me a computer. Give me a console.
Yes, especially on the phone or tablet, maybe tablet, maybe
tablet. Might work out better than a
phone. Yeah, especially Minecraft gonna
be difficult on the phone. Yeah, I think that's it for the
news unless you got something else.
No, that is all. All right, well, I'm gonna go
back to last episode where we were talking about fish farms.
And I kept saying they're totally broke turns out like
they may not be Firestarter was mentioning that the old fish
farms still technically work but you won't get the treasure Loop,
which is what I was looking for. I just wanted to fish, I think
care about the treasure. Hmm.
So it looks like I could still technically build one of these
AFK Fish Farms. That's a few chores.
Pretty sure you could, it might be something I try out and if it
doesn't work, I'll well, I tear it down because they're simple
enough. Yeah, I'm pretty sure they work
for fish surprised. Mention it last episode.
No, yeah I think of regular just for fish, it should.
I'm sure there's gonna be a much better fish farm out there in
general, just as a way to get fish.
But to me this goes back to the poor.
Poor execution of food in Minecraft.
Definitely think that needs to be looked at it.
It might look be looked at more with the combat update and how
eating affects the Minecraft player.
I definitely think There should be more Foods in the game.
Yeah, I'm kind of curious of a thought of someone that's, you
know, plays the PVP aspect of the game about food because they
have to have the certain foods that they go after when playing
PVP or yeah, what's the best ones to get?
Which ones to throw away? You know?
It'd be nice to get a thought from someone in that Community.
Yeah about the food. I did think about one point I
was like well let's try bread. I've never actually Had bred as
a fuel source. I always use bread to breed
villagers but never tried eating it and then you look up at the
stats for it and it's like you would rather eat cod raw than
bread. It's like it's bad maybe not so
much Rob may be cooked, but still still hit records bad.
Yeah, salmon is actually a decent food source cooked it's
not a super high Tier 1 but it's not bad.
So It's a great early game one. I don't know about me late game,
I have the feeling I'm either going to go steak or cook pork
chops. I'm going to try to hold off on
the golden carrot to season mainly because I don't want to
build a gold Farm. I've built a gold Farm, the last
three seasons and I'm just not wanting to do it again this
season, even though this isn't a lot of a lot easier and I have
the materials to build one sitting in a shoulder box.
I just never built one. You have been using someone
else's. Yeah, well Carlos, supplied me
with some cooked pork chops that have lasted A good bit, but I'm
under halfway with that shocker box.
So it's time for me to start thinking about real foods.
Instead, I'm over here playing with honey.
Yeah, that's what the junk food and to jump.
That's it. I'm my food for this season is
going to be like pumpkin pie. There you go cake.
How great would that be CK? If cake everywhere?
Yeah. But anyways, thanks for that
update, Firestar. That comment was from our
Discord and our Discord is only place where you guys can Can
talk to everyone who works on the show, pretty easily.
My fact just take me Jason's word for it.
Hey friends. It's me.
Jason and I'm a member of the withering effect disk or it's a
great place to talk to your fellow listeners.
Can give your input into the show.
You might even get your question or comment, read out on a future
episode. Join the Discord today, link is
in the show notes and I'll see you there Duds. 100 percents
this message. Thanks for the Discord.
Add me Jason. And speaking of Discord, it's
the only place you can get involved in our new mending.
Minecraft vote mending. Minecraft is going to be a new
segment taking over for a block of the week where we choose a
part of Minecraft and try to fix it.
Just like we did block the week but this time instead of blocks
are items. It's going to be biomes mobs,
tree type stuff like that. Maybe not tree types, but Carlos
probably like shooting me right now with that.
Abby eyes good. Shut up.
Definitely bring up trees during the volume, that's for sure.
Yeah, or we could separate it's up to you guys.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, probably shouldn't slip.
Frozen say that. Sorry.
Now Carl's giving you some stabby eyes.
Anyways, this week, we asked you guys to choose between three
mobs and those three moms where the horse cartographer and
Panda, be random. But the winner of many Minecraft
vote this week is, Horse worse one for you.
Go into your horse talk. I would like Jimbo to read word
for word his script. He wrote for announcing horses,
the winner. Yeah, I didn't have a script so
I had to write one out. So I wrote blah, blah blah,
drumroll and all that dot-dot-dot horse, so I hope, I
hope we drive to trouble roll. I kind of figured what to say.
So yeah. I just think it was supposed
there. I should have read that word for
word. I can't tell if it's because
it's Sunday morning and I had lack of sleep last night or
what? But I find it just absolutely
hilarious. I love it.
Yeah they wouldn't let their got worried had to put something.
Hey at least you when you wrote your own thing Carl didn't go
and start changing the format where I couldn't read it
anymore. Yeah he was here to didn't
change it. Yeah, as I'm working on.
It goes past anyways. Okay.
Continue with your segment. Yes, the horse got 21, votes,
cartographer and Panda. Both with 15, Seattle, lean
towards Panda. I would have picked Panda to.
I like, penis know what it is. I don't know how I would improve
a panda. They're adorable bright.
Yeah, they're just cool. I have some things on the
horses. This is kind of hard to come up.
You know, this is a block of the week, some different, hmm.
But the horses are a passive mob that can be ridden when tamed,
they can be tamed by continuing to right-click to mount the
horse until it sees Hearts till you see hearts, then can be
equipped with saddle and armor spawns in planes and savannas
and herds of two to six Villages generate natural stables and
animal pens, containing horses. Also it drops leather and XP
when killed also a saddle and armor.
If equipped comes in seven colors, white Chestnut, flax and
chest, Brown, black gray, and dark brown with five different
patterns, such as plain white stockings and Blaze white spots,
white dots, and black dots. Yeah.
And that's about it. There's a lot more to the horse
horse horse, of course, but yeah, we, well, I was able to
explain all that. All right, so now we get to The
Mending part. The horse, let's face.
It is useless. Is now, we talked about useless,
mobs earlier, it's obsolete, obsolete.
The Elijah beats the horse all the time, right?
All the time every time. So let's start a little bit
simpler, the horse texture. I think we all can remember at
least most of us couldn't remember when they change the
horse texture to this more blocky version saying it fit
better in Minecraft. I remember I'm going with no did
especially now we're seeing more mobs.
Come out with more detailed textures.
But the horse got a downgrade in my opinion.
I don't like it. Yeah, it seems like everything's
getting more. Don't know.
Mmm, more of a texture. The horse kind of went
backwards, didn't it? Yeah.
So I'd like to see a better horse model more detail.
It doesn't have to be as much detail as last time, but I felt
the this new design is very lacking, especially when you got
used to the way horses, look before mechanic wise, there's
not much improvement you can do to a horse.
It's a horse. Course, you got armor, you got
saddle, you can write it some of them jump higher than others,
some of them run faster than you others and some of them do both
of those things better than others.
I felt horse mechanics. In general is great.
Yeah like that. So how are we going to make a
horse better than the Electra? And the answer is I don't think
you can. Yeah it's hard to do.
Yeah. I don't think a horse will ever
be better the than the Electra white.
I think a horse could be more fun than a light ra with An
item. I'm calling the Pegasus armor
and I'm going to take advantage of the warden and these new loot
caves, where there's like little loot caches hidden away.
And so when you're mining you come into the deep dark.
You were able to sneak past that Warden.
You guys can't see it but I'm juking and jiving with my head p
is yeah. And you find this Treasure
Chest. You open it up and you got
Pegasus armor now Pegasus armor. You can put on On a horse and
that will one allow your horse to do brief Glides so you can be
running and you hit the jump button and they'll do a little
Glide and it was like well you can get a lighter with rockets.
You can fly everywhere and it's better.
It's like yes it is. But the Pegasus armor will also
allow your horse to run on water because technically it won't be
running on water. Be kind of gliding while using
its Legos on the water to pole or push itself forward words.
So yes, it wouldn't be better than the elytra but I think with
Pegasus armor it would be more fun.
I agree. That sounds like a lot of fun.
Yeah. Especially if you're an Explorer
type person, if you don't have the greatest PC, a lighter
flying's, not great because chunks.
Don't load fast enough in something like that.
So, staying close to the ground while still having the ability
to do a little bit of flying. Might be a cool thing.
So, yes, Pegasus armor. Yeah, the water seems like once
you hit water, you know, your horse is kind of useless.
Yeah, yeah. That would be be a great way to
get them around without you know leaving them behind an area
areas of putting him in boats. Take your horse, wherever you be
like your companion. Your little sidekick huh it'd be
cool to see someone just fly in a pegasus or a meeting or
something like to see that originally I was thinking of
stuff like saddlebags and things but I mean we already kind of
have With donkeys, you can put chess on donkeys, that acts like
a saddlebag. Yeah, here's the inventory, for
the horse, besides the, the saddle and armor, and then I
went like, what killed the horse, obviously the elytra.
So, how can you make a horse, beat and Lytro where you can't?
But you can make a horse more fun than a light ra.
And originally I thought, well, maybe just have the horse fly
around like the elytra and it's like it still, why would you do
that? I would just have an electron
fly around with rockets and stuff because now I don't have
to worry about a horse running off.
When I get off of it. Yeah, less, you did give it like
an inventory. It might be worth bringing
around. Maybe your inventory is bigoted
big enough as it is. Sometimes, sometimes it isn't.
Yeah. I was thinking what if you could
enchant the horse armor, maybe you can give it a little bit of
a speed boost. Maybe jump boost.
Okay, try to think of what else it could do.
Maybe it has like it. Horseshoe armor like its own
horse shoes that can make it faster or jump faster or jump
higher, instead of the armor. Maybe also give it frost Walker.
Yeah. Give it frost Walker.
Maybe a swimming ability I can see that.
Oh no it would definitely change, take the horse to a
whole nother level. Yeah, even abilities that maybe
we don't have or we don't think of, like, maybe it could have
that gliding ability. It's hard to see that without
wings, though. Just a horse.
Glide. Yeah.
Pegasus armor. Would make more sense there?
Yeah, just throwing that out there.
If there's horse armor that you can enchant, what enchantments
would be on it. Yeah, that's for the audience
saddlebags are definitely one thing I'd love you even if it's
just six slots, so you'd have three on each side of the horse
would be perfect for holding choker boxes and stuff.
Yeah, it was really hard for me, not to straight up, say well I
want to make a new mob. It's like, no, no, I'm here to
make the horse better. What?
Do to make the horsepower without creating a new mob.
And I think definitely you're hitting on it to armors the way
to go improve horse armor. Make something cool out of that.
That's how you help the horse. Yep.
Give it some more attractions, I guess.
Yo, yo, all right should we move on to our main topic?
Yeah, it's all got for the horse.
All right, so this main topic came in my mind when I was
listening to Carl's best of 2020, which I want to put out.
There, Carl? Why didn't bet of the year make
highlights of 2020? Is it?
Because I won. Is that what it's going to be?
Exactly why. No.
But I was listening back and we had King be dogs on the show and
we were talking about Minecraft nights and how the Phantom is
annoying and how sleeping is a little broken.
So I thought like what if me and you for this topic?
Sit down and try to fix nighttime in Minecraft.
Make I've nighttime enjoyable and pleasant shall we say?
Yeah. Joy evils of stretch.
It is this it is a stretch. We did have a few days to think
about all these. So yeah.
So completely polished, let's start with your issues.
You have with my time. Now, I'm going to put out there,
you told me beforehand, that all of my issues were issues.
You also had, so you chose some different than mine, just so we
can spread the topic out. Out.
Yeah, so everyone keep that in mind when Jimbo's telling you
his issues with night time that there was more.
But I'm already covering them, so we didn't feel like
double-talking. Right?
Yeah. You got some three, really good
issues. I put down a couple more one, is
that it can hurt Farm rates at night, depending on what farm
you have mob Farms event, especially if things aren't lit
up around your area, those mobs that are spawning in your farm
when I will spawn everywhere else.
It's nighttime. There's not enough light.
So rate skin. Take away your farm efficiency.
Yeah, it's one thing. Mmm, and I've have I seem to
have trouble with creepers. Don't we all when you start off
a new build, I'll always make sure I put enough torches around
which can be. That could be pretty monotonous
as it is just put torches down for 20 minutes just to make sure
everything safe. Yeah.
But when you In your building real quick, trying to get things
up there. Always seems to be a creeper
that Finds Its way over to where you are.
They even got spawn near you, they'll find their way over to
you, to blow something up. And that always seems to be my
issue. My spawn Town Base got hit by a
creeper shopping area. Got hit by a creeper.
Blew it up. I blew up to a creeper in my
latest video while building a wall.
Yeah, it's just things. Get blown up at It seems like I
can't be the only problem or only person with this issue
creepers. Yeah.
The other ones are pretty much on your side, the issues.
So before we go over to my problems, my fixes, what about
you? How would you fix nighttime in
Minecraft? Yeah, I have a few fixes here.
One of them would be to make the nighttime more enjoyable with
looks thinking, more of a night-sky animation, maybe you
To see like shooting stars, I would love that.
Maybe you want to see. Yeah, maybe a comet, or an
asteroid or whatever, you know, come across the street and some
rare events rare occurrences, maybe that happened at night,
that you might want to see, maybe an aurora borealis
northern lights every once in a while, maybe when the Sun goes
down or when it's coming up. Yeah, yeah.
Just different Sky animations. Even in the day can't see much
in the day but you have the Clouds up there, that kind of
distort the image in the day. Maybe at night time, they fade
away and you get some nighttime animation.
Yeah. Before we go too far on there, I
like what you said, clouds you that Minecraft needs to raise
clouds? Yes, there's solo.
If you built anything, tall, they cut through the middle of
your build and it's like, I always feel clouds should be
just above build limit. I agree.
Yeah. You shouldn't be able to build
inside the clouds. Not that low, at least I would
turn clouds back on if they're above build limit, but as of now
they're staying off. Yep, they're often mine.
I'm also thinking maybe in some biomes crops grow faster night
that could be cool. It could depend on the crop but
I'm thinking a couple biomes might be.
I don't know. Something.
Maybe Lush. Lush caves.
What's the Spruce Wood? What's that bio Tyga Tyga buy
it? Maybe the Taiga Biome things?
Go faster at night, you know because of the soil or the
megataiga it's got that podzol? Yeah.
Maybe vines or even mushrooms can grow a little bit faster.
Yeah. Yeah.
Not just so much. Crops may be all plant life
grows faster in certain biomes at night.
So maybe you want to keep your keep night up to get your
efficiency of your Farms or yeah.
Whatever you need to grow. I could be cool.
I like that idea. And last thought I was thinking
might make to nighttime, little more fun is double XP at night
when you kill a mob. Oh huh, any mob that would spawn
at night naturally you get double XP from now.
There could be you know, an instance where people make Farms
that only run at night to get the double XP.
I think it's kind of even because you can go to the
Enderman farm and get a ton of XP, but, you know, early game,
get double XP at night. They would keep you up at night,
so you wouldn't have to sleep through.
Go through, even if you have a form that works at night, you
can go to that at night but you're not sleeping through it.
Exactly. No, I completely agree that
especially early game, because early game XP such a grind, mmm.
So the fact that you get bonuses for staying up and willing to
fight hordes of mobs at night, getting double XP seems worth
it. Yep, I love that idea.
That's my first thought. Thought thought that was my best
thought. Very good.
Double XP. Will you guys in the Discord and
stuff? Let us know how you like Jimbo's
fixes for nighttime. You good with double XP, you
good with night, animations crops growing faster.
I love all your ideas. Those are great ideas, thank
you. The first.
Did you just do first? That's a first?
No, no. I generally like most your
ideas. Yeah.
Yeah, it was. Always hard with, you know,
couple few days ahead of time thinking of stuff.
But I do, you know throughout the day.
How can I make it better? Yeah, but my thought out there
well and it doesn't help. I waited till midnight the night
before to go ahead and just write everything down because
I'm like you. I'm thinking about it in my head
all the time, but it's usually jotted down on a piece of
notepad and it's like oh I should probably put that in the
file so everyone can see it. Yeah, anyways, we're moving onto
my issue. Shoes with nighttime.
Yeah yeah I'm pretty sure I got it.
I covered everything. You sure 100%.
Nope. Okay, so my issues I have with
nighttime. Number one Phantoms, I love the
Phantom as a mob. I hate the Phantom as a
mechanic, the forcing players to sleep.
Has me sleeping more than I ever have which means I skip night
more than I ever have, which means I stay inside.
Made more than I ever have sleep more than you ever have.
My second issue I have, is the massive amount of mobs that come
out at night time, like you said, disrupting Farm rates.
Yeah you're constantly having to light everything up which causes
a ton of torch spam which is just ugly especially if you're
trying to build a nice-looking build in survival.
Mmm, it's just a mess, really, if you want to play with light,
In Minecraft. You don't want to be on a
mushroom biome. It reduces your block palette
insanely to only blocks that have half slabs and stairs
because those are not spawnable and I think that something
Mojang needs to think about when we say, we want more half, slabs
and stairs. It's because we want to play
with lighting effects that we can't, because of mob spawning.
It's not so much, the weird, not trying to be creative.
It's where limited and creativity because of Outside
defects affecting pallets. So there's that.
And finally, as a content creator, nighttime is just bad
for recording. Mmm.
I have internal shaders on which brightens everything up as it
is, but even when I walk into a dimly lit area with these
internal shaders on and he watched on YouTube, it's so
dark. If I walk into my storage room
and look up at the ceiling, it is a giant black blob.
You can't tell that I've done layers of glass.
Glass and black concrete and everything you just see black
blob. Yeah, so it's like well that was
kind of the effect. I was going for but not so much
that poorly. You have noticed that it's
really hard to get the look on phone YouTube.
Yeah makes it so much darker even like underwater.
Yes very much. It's hard to record.
Yeah, so those are my issues with nighttime in Minecraft.
Let's get into fixing nighttime. There's were also my shoes by
the weight also Yes, those are all my issue.
Telsa Jibo was just trying to add on to the ones I already had
problems with. He has these issues also.
So if you have a fix that, I'm not talking about, definitely
happen and dog pile. It's get these issues knocked
out. First problem Phantoms, how do I
fix Phantoms? Seems like a great idea for
minding Minecraft Carl. You, if you're listening I'm
giving you the answer now. So you might not want to put
Phantoms in mining or mending Minecraft.
Maybe make them more biomass. Um specific or a structure
specific mob. Kind of like the pillagers have
the Outpost maybe one of these new cave types house?
A phantom, mmm. My big thing is I want the bat
out of Minecraft. I think bats are stupid.
They don't bring anything to the game.
They're super annoying. I would much rather have the
Phantom, take the bat spot in caves because the Phantom is a
cool. Look at mob, I dig it.
Hmm. And also I'm going to bring this
up dirty. And from our Discord, put a
texture where he changed the elytra wings to phantom style.
Wings does that? Not make way more sense than a
light your wings now? Yeah, they look pretty cool.
Yeah, the texture makes a lot of sense and I wouldn't mind seeing
it switched over anyways. Fixing Phantoms.
Give them a. Give them a location that you
can search out. It would also make them a more
farmable mob. You wouldn't have to wait, three
days to get them to spawn and have a Ten minute window to farm
them, you'd be able to go to a location at any point especially
if it's in a cave and they still need light levels to spawn.
Sounds like a good idea to me. Yeah I could see that.
Do you have any other ideas for Phantoms?
Not really buying a specific? I do like that my only worry
with doing a biome specific instead of a structure specific
spot is that it could be a turn-off for people building in
that biome. Just because a, how hated
Phantoms really are unless it's like the music room, They're
specific to that. You get like the good with the
bad. Yeah, you'd get do mob spawning,
but at nighttime, you get Phantoms every night that may be
a turn-off to. Yeah, I Phantoms are just such a
hated mob, which is funny, considering it won a popular
vote to be in the game. Yeah, they're just annoying
really, are that makes you sleep through the night.
Yeah, wasted away wasting nights.
So, my second issue, the On of mobs that are spawning which
then causes torch spam, which then causes ugliness and builds
the way I would fix. That is a new Beacon effect.
And I've mentioned this before, I think a beacon effect to repel
mob spawning is a great idea. You could make it maybe you know
how you most people just use an iron ingot to purchase said
Beacon effect at the time. Maybe the Mob repelling effect
cost, something different, maybe it's a little bit more rare,
maybe you have to put a phantom membrane in there and that means
Phantoms don't spawn there. Maybe, maybe you have to use
rotten flesh and keep zombies out or maybe you have to use
another right Ingot to keep everything out.
Mmm. And for me, I think this helps
you and a bit in the hurts Farm rates because strategically
placing a beacon that could repay.
L mobs would effectively stop mobs from spawning in areas.
You do not want them to spawn thus making your farm efficiency
better because that would be the only area mobs could spawn.
Yeah. And people wondering the will,
the beacon effect goes all the way up and down.
It's like, no, it doesn't go all the way down.
It only goes so far down. So, you really could control.
Mmm, where Moss would spawn with this effect and Beacon such a
late game item. The fact that you have to get
the massive amount of iron or emeralds or diamonds, or even
the right to create the beacon, you have to defeat a Wither to
get the nether star. It's such a late game.
I don't I don't know why repelling moms would be a feared
thing making it too easy. It's like what the amount of
work you got to do to get a beacon.
I'm 100% for this especially after reading Tangos post Tango
Tech, he posted that with the New, what is it?
Tinted glass doesn't allow light through.
You should be able to put a tinted glass on a beacon and
that would stop the beacon being from going all the way up.
Yeah, let's all that. Yeah, I'm still for you have to
have a sky path for a beacon to work.
Like, that's still fine. Because you still glass that
over, but to not have that laser beam, going all the way up to
the sky. I think that's really cool.
Yeah, it makes perfect sense. Yeah.
So Adding that onto the fact that you could repel mob
spawning and be awesome, the any you can always adjust the beacon
somehow, instead of maybe 50 blocks, radius.
It's going to be a little shorter.
Yeah. Because it is, you know, kind of
an Opie ability for the beacon, repelling spawns, or maybe you
can use different blocks. Not so much iron maybe nether,
right? Has got to be the top layer to
repel mobs. Something along those lines.
You know, it doesn't have to be just a beacon with all its
original of abilities, but maybe the B can be can be changed for
this kind of action, this ability.
And normally I would argue that the beacon is already such an
expensive item as in the full tower and stuff.
But I think people would love rappelling mobs, so much that
everyone would agree with you, including me that even if I had
to put nine stupid nether, right?
Ingots on a beacon to get it to repel.
Maybe not that. That might be a little too
expensive but maybe add a full nother layer.
So instead of a 9x9 7x7 5x5 3x3, you had to add a new another
one. What would that be?
Be a limb by 11 11 by 11? Yeah.
Maybe you have to add another one of those layers to get the
effect in there. Okay.
I think it's such a great effect that would get used a lot that
people would be willing to put in the extra work to get it.
Yeah. I agree with that.
Always, always liked that idea and then my final fix the bad
recording issue. It's too dark at night and
everything. I was thinking about, what if
you can get a night vision enchantment for a helmet.
So it would act like those minor helmets that have a flashlight
on the front of it. Hmm.
So it's always night vision at night.
Like he it does the day like cycle the day the time doesn't
change or anything like that. But the second is to use a light
level go below eight or so. Whatever mob spawning light
level is the night vision effect, takes place, granted you
could already do this with potions, so that would probably
be the way Mojang would prefer you to do it because it's the
mechanics already in the game some way.
But yeah, I figured, I'd throw that out there.
Yeah, I don't know if you kind of have to put a lantern on your
helmet. Yeah.
It's a little weird and it wasn't the greatest.
Just fix obviously putting night vision on a beacon would
probably be even better, but again, you're taking away from
potions, which already has a night vision potion in there.
So yeah, they're gotta grind for the potions first, right?
Yeah, night vision is always going to be at the issue or
nighttime recording is always going to be an issue.
I feel like it will be. Yeah.
Underwater you kind of need night vision to do anything like
that. I did a little caving
Expedition. On my channel in there, some
places where it's just black like, man, you don't notice it
until you upload it. Once it's uploaded, it's too
late. Yeah, it's uh, plated.
So it's kind of yeah, yeah, I guess.
There's a way to change the hurts.
What is it? I can't remember.
Winter. Grave told me there's a way to
change a setting to make it to where it's a lot easier to see
on your YouTube channel at night.
Have to get that from him. Well, I mean you're talking
about needing Night vision to go, underwater and everything.
Let's not forget the conduit already gives you night vision.
They had. Conduit does.
Yeah, Mojang is not afraid to put a potion effect on a beacon
or another item. Mmm.
There is that. Yeah, there's some hope.
Got some hope there. Yeah.
But any other fixes for nighttime?
I can't really think of any. I know they just implemented to
where you can actually you don't need a, what is it?
An extra attachment to wear. Don't have to data back to where
you don't have to have one person sleep or where you can
have one person sleep, they've added a game rule, that allows
that. Yeah, and I really think with
these fixes, I would love to see a server set.
The game rule, 20 percent. So you have to be out at night
all the time. Mmm, there's no more sleeping on
This Server. So beds would really only be
spawn spots or if everyone were to sleep at the same time or
That that gets hard that gets Hard Stone's, JFK.
Exactly. Well, that's our nighttime
fixes. You guys let us know how you
would fix nighttime. We really liked hearing from you
guys. Yeah.
If it's anything good, always bring it up on the show.
Yeah, usually do but I think that's going to do it for
today's show before I have Jimbo Reedus out.
