Hey everyone. Welcome to the withering effect
episode 120. Today's date is November 7, 20,
21 and I am Duds or Duds versus known to the rest of your webs
and I'm Jimbo, you may know me as Jimbo slice 23.
Today we have a guest short Zelda 22.
Welcome to the show. It's good to have you.
Mmm, if you want to start off by telling us what you do a little
bit about yourself, sir. so, it was a little About it quite a
bit. I'm short in real life, Zelda
Ocarina of Time was my first-ever favorite game?
Mmm. Heck yeah, the first one I ever
played that, I really got into the story of and 22 is my lucky
number because what could be better than tutus a 2323 home?
I know it's funny. You guys are so, the number 21
is actually huge in my Emily really basically half of us are
born on the 21st day of every month.
Oh wow. Oh that's hilarious.
I'm December 21st. My sister's May 21st our cousin
September 21st. So 21 is a big number and our
family 23 is bigger than 21 and 22.
By the way. Yeah.
But it's not blackjack the great, isn't it?
Yeah. So other than just breaking down
my name, I primarily stream Minecraft.
So I would say for about the last two years, I've just pretty
much been a Minecraft players dreamer, and I was kind of
brought in by a streaming overlap a streaming.
Funny does actually read it into my stream and I misread his
user. Yeah.
Oh, I'm gonna go out on full record here.
Here I read it as Studio because streamer big brain is a very
real thing. You can't always read and
especially when chat comes in and there's like a lot of new
names and you're trying to catch him fast.
I read it as do do. Yeah great.
That's why I don't read people and so he actually had rated in
while I was playing on my SMP that me.
My husband are owners admins on called hourglass SMP and it is
very much, a kind of a test server for us.
Like we had been playing on an SNP for about a year before we
launched our own. And we came to the idea that we
really enjoyed the community areas the most, on that SNP,
like building a base, building our own Farms is always fun, but
we kind of thrived in our devious world when we had big
Community projects. So what we did was we created
this server as a limited time and Community build world.
And what that means is we set a time limit of only six months
and we launched on July first and the server is going to go
down on December 31st. So that's like been pretty much
consuming all of my creative time for the last several months
because we're so focused on. Every month going to a new area
and building new themed area. Yeah.
Well that's cool. Yeah.
We chose a like an overarching theme for the server of Magic?
The Gathering so that we could Mash two of our interests
together. So we take ideas and themes from
Magic the Gathering and builds them in Minecraft.
So we're centering it around the five Mana Cycles.
I don't know. What do you guys play?
Magic, the Gathering. Are you familiar with it?
At all, not at all. I looked at it a little bit when
I know I was checking out the server and you mentioned the
Manna Cycles, I was like, wonder what this is and I've I wasn't
able to get the grasp of what it was.
I saw like five different cards with different environments.
Yep. So what it is, is Mana is the
power source for all the Spells. It's basically it's the energy
if you think about it, that way that you pull from the land in
order to cast your Teachers and your Spell's and to help protect
all of your stuff. And so each of the five
different man has is both a color and it represents a plane
or like a like, a land formation basically.
So there is white, which is the planes, which is like big fields
like, you know, lots of open space and then there's blue,
which is Islands, obviously, that was a little bit easier to
explain And then the next one is black swamps, and then red
mountains and then green and Forest.
So each one of them has a color and like a personality of their
own. And so, what we're doing with
each one of those areas is we're building.
Our are on a mushroom Island, first of all, because it was it
was before the wonderful lighting update that we're
getting next update. So we wanted to be able to
concentrate on the Things side of everything and not so much on
the mob proofing. And so we found a seed with five
mushroom islands within three thousand blocks of Spawn.
And each month, we're moving to a different area and we're
picking a build style and like a color palette of blocks and
we're all building in the same area to get kind of these huge
build projects done. That one single player would
just wouldn't be able to do. It's pretty unique.
Yeah, for anyone One, you need to go see it because these
aren't like small little village builds.
These are massive builds and the fact that you're getting them
done in a month is crazy. The first one to go with the the
fact that they're big builds is a month line that we built on
for the white Island. There was a cathedral full like
Grand scale Cathedral, there was a fortress which actually we had
to expand the island a little bit because Is one of the
members on the server, just kind of went crazy with it.
So we actually had to add on because we didn't have enough
space on their measure valence. So we basically doubled the size
of the machine islands. And then a whole village and a
lighthouse and a shipping Dock. And that's definitely was my
favorite one so far because really everybody just embraced
the challenge in that month. Yeah, when everything is new and
fresh, you have a path and that That to me that's the best thing
about starting a new season is seeing the path emerge and what
you're doing. Yeah, seeing the vision start to
come to life like because we've been planning it for about two
months before we actually got in world and so just like seeing
everybody's contributions and like kind of what everybody
gravitated towards was really cool.
It's nice seeing different snp's.
Like this you know normally get the same old you know get your
group together and build on a server type of deal but to have
it. Like this is pretty cool.
It's pretty unique. You're starting to see that a
little more with smps. I'm digging it.
Well that neat the short time period.
You guys have set for yourselves too because a lot of ESPYs take
a year before they finish a map and you guys are like six months
go. Yeah.
It's a bit long. It was definitely a little bit
of a we don't know if we can hold interest long enough like
let's just Stick with it. As long as we've got the
inspiration was quite and to kind of test the waters, but I
think I think everybody's still very interested but you guys
aren't you get two months left to.
So yes it's coming up fast though.
Well and it happens to work out that 118 is right around the
corner too. So that could open a whole new
ideas for you guys. Oh, and it already has, as I
mentioned, it was me. And my in time the planning side
of it and he's got an idea for what we're going to roll into
next year with the update where it won't be one overarching
theme for the whole server. But each month we are going to
let the community decide what the next build style builds
theme is and because the lighting is also being updated,
we're going to be able to work a lot more underground and like
the example that he used, I don't know if you guys have seen
the movie goon Oh yeah, yep, kind of a classic.
So hopefully this is a reference most everybody understands but
that underwater pirate scene with the shifts and like the
waterfalls and all the like you know traps and stuff that they
have to navigate like that was one of the ideas is that now
with an under the caves and the lighting improvements, we're
going to be able to do something like that.
Even yeah. That should be cool to see.
Yeah so and we've just got so many ideas from Min.
And it's going to be really fun to see the server open up a
little bit, because Magic, the Gathering is not as well known
in our community is Minecraft. So, we're giving them a lot of
Laura, a lot of reference images.
And this next time, it'll be the community is going to come in
and be able to participate more with us and be like, hey, this
is what I'm really interested in and then we are all going to
kind of converge around that idea.
You say participate, I say, dictate, trust me.
Those guys are gonna be like No, you're building this this month.
Don't care. That's what you want.
You're building this one. So yeah.
So that was that was about me and my super awesome.
Like I said that had to be one of the most best DM worst
English. I've said but just stumble upon
raids because I was like oh here's someone who has less than
50 viewers watching. I've got like 10.
Let's see if we can't boost them and see what was Going on and
sure enough. Yeah that was a great rate that
was it was real. While we were getting set up, is
I'm not a very opinionated person.
So, like, usually, when information comes about game
updates or like numeration, like, oh, that's cool.
And now I'm getting to hear a little bit more of like some
critical feedback and being like, Oh, yeah, what you know,
what would I think about this change?
If I had no other information, like no other outside sources,
what is my own opinion? And so it's helping me kind of
like I've never Think more critically, maybe bundles, bad
and early, just do that one in there for Carl Carl likes when I
say that he gets a hoot out of it but Jimbo how about your
week? How interesting what week did
you have? You know, you know about the
same as last week. Haven't got to played the about
things this week and the week before haven't been to inspired
to play Minecraft. I don't know what it is.
I haven't been on the The server, as you noticed, mmm been
working a good bit. I even picked up a day of work
this Saturday. I know the winner is coming, you
know, there might not be as much work ahead.
So yeah. Trying to work as much as I can,
but yeah, I still have time to play.
I just haven't been playing, I don't know what it is.
Just in a rut, there's really not much creativity.
I got to put into it. You know, the build is there.
I just gotta put the time in. I think what it is, is all the
work left. Just grinding work on my base.
I have a really have a really big bass, if you didn't know she
and finishing this thing up and detailing, it is going to take a
long time and it's time that I've wasted away and haven't
been playing with it. I did a little bit of recording,
but that was a while ago. I got a little distracted with
the crypto verse again. You know, it's actually picking
up a little bit but yeah, besides, that know.
No inspiration to play. Minecraft haven't been watching
too much Minecraft. Either a little bit of third
life here in there but ya know, my craft for me this week, the
whole decry anything to me. I take it as a lesson, don't
learn. Yeah.
Especially after me, Midway through the season, you saw I
quit my base. I was like I've done a building
a new base and then I came up with okay, this is the old base,
can still work. It's a lot of grunt work but I
ended up breaking it off into, I can do this area.
Yeah, in about 30 minutes so I marked out my base into 30
minute segments as I called him doing texturing and everything
like that. So it's like every week I try to
do at least two or three, thirty minute segments Ami just detail
work and that made the grind 10 times easier.
Really smart way to break. And because that is one of the
first things that I noticed, when I had big projects on my
single player is just how insurmountable it always felt.
Is like, I had these huge ideas of what I wanted to do and then
I would start doing it and it would be hours later and it was
hardly a dent. Yep.
Mmm. That's where I'm at and I've
always been like the grind e person, always built big and was
able to finish and complete these things.
But yeah, the lack of me consuming Minecraft content
does. Don't give me the info
inspiration to go and play. I think it is.
I think you just looking out for the wrong content may be so for
the past three months, I've been looking for a ton of small
YouTubers, mmm who are actually putting out great content and
that's way more interesting to me than like, you look at
hermitcraft, they had think half of them got sick for the past
month. So videos been relatively slow
from there, which led to not a lot of content because that's
usually my primary source. Found servers, like ramble, SMP
Channel, 64. Basically Minecraft.
These are all small hourglass and claps.
I usually I usually am all about Zelda streams that that's my
streaming section but these are all small people who don't get
enough credit on the YouTube world.
So I'm shouting you guys out now these are great content
creators. You guys should go follow them
while. Make sure to join Zelda's next
stream and I'll Check out those YouTube's that you mentioned.
I've heard is the 64 Channel 64, our tail 64.
Yeah. Okay.
I've heard of that before. I do, you know, any of the
members that are on it, just sticks?
Arlington people Atomic. Dave kind of think of how I've
heard of it. I've been propping him up in the
weathering effect Discord for a while now, they're my favorite
SP to watch right now. You're from Duds.
They've got interesting. Storylines, they're all great
Builders and The thing it's all quality content.
Like usually when you get to the like the smaller SP guys, the
mic quality is not there, or maybe the video quality is not
there because you're using just what you can get your hands on
to start out. These guys are doing top-notch
recording and editing microphone work, they have little story
lines that don't dictate an entire episode.
So if you're not a fan of the storyline, it's really only five
minutes to the content. And then on top of that, They're
actually doing really nice builds and showing it.
They're not doing here's a 30-second time lapse.
And now I'm going to go mess around for 25 minutes.
So yeah that's what I like. I like it.
Nice builds and all but I think a good storyline really UPS the
quality. Yeah, always been into that
channel. 64 has great story lines, so nice.
Like I said, they're not overwhelming.
It's not. I missed an episode from this
one person so I can't watch anymore.
It's like nah, you just hop in. Watch that was my challenge when
I was Slotting third life is because I knew if I watch one,
I'm going to want to watch them almost like Pokemon, gotta catch
em all. So I had to actively tell myself
no because I wouldn't get anything else done.
Yeah, but watching The Fan Art come out for third life made
made that choice a little bit. Regrettable there's some awesome
fan art 4/3 life. Yeah.
Jimbo anymore things this week now then shout it out on ton of
small YouTubers. Know a whole lot of That whole
lotta Nothin. So, yep, at least you're
consistent, right? So, how about your, we my week
included a finale? Well, includes a finale.
So, last episode, I had a poll for my community tab asking.
If they wanted another ripple effect episode or a project Moss
episode, everyone voted for ripple effect.
And so I was like okay I have this island to work on, that
will take a good half the episode work on that and then
I'll find Adults to work on the island took less than five
minutes. I was like okay so I've got this
down pat what else? And I literally sat for two days
on the server just kind of walking around looking for stuff
to work on. And you go you know what I'm not
inspired to build anything here. Everything I want to builds in
my single player world. I think it's time for a finale
and it just so happens. This season has the exact same
amount of episodes as last season, so it's To me that kind
of seemed like a sign gotta end on that.
So yeah. Ripple effects season 3 finale
should have come out Monday for everyone that's tomorrow for us.
It all depends on my afternoon after this recording.
I was going to say, I missed it. Yeah, it's not Monday yet.
Okay. Yeah, I'm remembering that we're
recording in the future. I forget every time it's Sunday
for us but people don't listen to this till Wednesday, mmm,
right. So yeah.
I started season for planning. You saw a little bit of it in
the Discord. I posted the thumbnail for
season 4. Hmm, which I'm pretty happy with
looks good. Let's see, I did Carl skin.
I mentioned Friday night on stream about how I'm enjoying
creating skins and Carl's like yeah, I just picked one online
and changed a couple little things.
And today that's my skin. I was like Carl.
You want me to make you skinny said sure.
So I ended up changing Carl skin up a bit.
I want to do a wacky, crazy one but he won't give me a wacky
crazy. Topic / idea to do his skin with
could do something seasonal, true for the one thing is, Carl
has a creeper face on the back of his hoodie.
I went ahead and change that to a weather because that's way
cooler, 100%. Okay.
Other than that, it's just a little 3D effects to make his
skin stand out a little bit more.
Nothing too terribly less than an hour's worth of work.
What is it that you're having fun with making the Skins?
I don't know really The layers, you've been using your layers.
Yeah, I it's not like I'm doing anything weird like if you turn
one layer off it does skin changes completely.
I'm not doing anything like that.
I don't think enough people take advantage of the different
layers to give a 3d effect for some things like on my gloves.
My character wears. The wrist section is on another
layer, so it gives it a bigger bulkier kind of texture.
The undershirt It is on another layer so it looks like a rolled
up sleeve. I have I forget what it's
called. It looks like a scarf but it's
not a scarf. It's one of those things that
you have around your neck that a lot of people are just pulling
up and using as masks now. Yeah.
I guess a bandana. It's I have one of those and
that's also on another layer to give it a look as if it's
sitting on top of the T-shirt not in the T-shirt, so use your
layers when creating a skin. Gotta love the layer thing.
Yeah. So yeah, I just kind of did that
to Carlos skin. Like he has a hoodie.
So, the little strings that will draw strings in the hoodie.
Those are sitting on a new layer.
So they stick out the hood is on a second layer.
He already had it on a second layer, but stuff like that
jeans. If you're doing any kind of
pants work, a couple horizontal stripes, and good locations,
will give it a that person's Got Annie effect.
Instead of you just walk on sticks, or you can detail it to
be baggy. You can detail to be baggy.
If you put all the lines towards the ankles, it looks like baggy
pants, mmm, or another layer towards the bottom.
Yeah, so that's what I find. Fun is taking advantage of stuff
like that and theming it. Like was, I think, ever, since I
joined Ripple, I tried to update my skin and theme for the next
season. Like this, season was Pirate
Island. So, my Skin's a bit piratey next
season. It's going to be Wilderness
Lodge. So I've done a skin.
That makes It look like I would be an Explorer.
Sounds cool. Not a lumberjack.
I know people were going to go there so I did not do the
flannel shirt. Yeah, so I need a theme from
Carl. I know he doesn't know what his
season 4 is going to be yet, so I couldn't theme it based around
that but my tree work, my skin maybe that'll help.
Jump boost. E inspiration.
I think. I made your skin for this
season, to didn't I? Yes, you did.
And then that was just a small little update.
Mmm. Yeah, I've got like an entire
folder of Duds kids. Like I have a costume wardrobe
for whatever we're working on, I made a couple, but yeah, you
made mine. Newest one.
I made like my caveman type of skin.
Yeah I got stung by bees at one time and I put like that was the
most disturbing skins like swollen.
Yeah like a swollen face. No one liked it there like oh my
God everyone oh my God stop go away because it might like mouth
is half closed. Just had fun with that one but
either way I'm getting back on topic.
Got my single player world, which honestly will probably
only be two or three episodes because I have the feeling 118
to coming before, December. I think we're getting really
close to pre-release. You're very optimistic.
Very optimistic. Yeah, figure.
We have a pre-release already. If that was the case.
Well, after seeing this week, snapshot, I think we're getting
really close to pre-release. Yeah, there's very little well
and what is there is Big. So let's go ahead and hop onto
the snapshot 21w 44, a Oh, a professional segue.
So New World Generation. The chunks under Bedrock now
updated. Yep.
So you're going to get your deep site stuff though.
I did see that there was a bit of a bug where you were supposed
to be getting mostly deep site. A lot of people were still just
getting stoned. Yeah, look like majority Stone
to me. That seems like somebody
probably just had a texture swap in there somewhere that needs to
be fixed. Yeah, you wouldn't think it'd be
hard to That shouldn't be too big of a fix.
Yeah. Yeah.
So we've got that. That's the big thing.
Once I've solved that I was like, okay, we're close because
blending was to me, the probably the hardest thing they had to
do. And the fact that they, this
snapshot doesn't have any blending.
Lets me know that the blending from last week is good.
It's where they want it. Awesome.
Now they're moved on to this, so I'm excited.
I'm really looking forward to it.
Let's see, added an online option screen where you can now
find Realms notifications, option and difficulty.
When on a server, does java help rooms?
My think it's just a drug. That's what I thought.
So there's some Bedrock news. It's added an allow server
listings. Opt out having your name
displayed on servlet. So like whenever you're going
into your multiplayer Tab and you look to the side, it says
like there's 250 people online and you hover over and it tells
you who's online you can Change it so nobody knows your online
sneaky. Oh, I always like that feature.
I do too. Yeah, I don't want to join with
Jimbo's on, come on. Good thing.
I won't be on so I just I can't have that he'll have me
recording stuff for his next episode.
I'll put you to work. Well, he's been saying the joke
is for four weeks now. Hey when you're on I need to
record something for my video and I am been on the entire time
and he hasn't been yeah yeah that's next in the video but now
I'm like, debating. Am I going to get this video
out? So you better people are going
to be upset. I know that's what I mean.
I like I don't want to upset anyone.
You can do it. There you go.
I don't want to be like that. Go Jimbo guy.
Who promises promises something just doesn't follow through or
else? My word wouldn't be any good.
So now the big change, the big change that has me almost as Did
for the Light update is sleeping now, only resets the weather
cycle. If it is raining, when you go to
sleep, I like that. That is huge.
Huge, no more waiting and having people yell at you don't sleep.
Oh yeah that was that was a really big problem on the list
server that we played on. They actually had to schedule
once a month storms where the mod would actually trigger in
the storm because it was it was a big active server and I'm
notoriously sleeping. So now I got yelled at a lot.
Yeah, dark is scary man. Especially if you're doing a
time lapse it looks terrible exactly.
Well, could you imagine night and rain in a time-lapse
YouTube? Have a fit?
Yeah, yeah. I guess it's a new, like,
lightning rods. And, you know, the Trident and
everything people want to have their storms every once in a
while. Yeah, but yeah, the whole reset
of the weather can damage that know.
So this is a good change. Also, for the red Stoners blocks
and fluids are now also affected by simulation distance.
So it'd be a good idea, to go ahead and test that behavior
with your Contraptions. That make sure it's still
working correctly. I'm not sure what that means me,
neither and they say, they also have optimized entity
collisions. So the 24 cows in your little
hole. Like I do for food, that
shouldn't be as laggy anymore. That's big.
Yeah, I loved my cow Farms anything to reduce lag.
I think I'm going back to golden carrots next season.
Yeah, yeah. Was it that laggy, or was it
something else? No, it's to have a good cow Farm
one. You got to get the cows then.
You have to get a good way to get the wheat and then you got
to do a villagers. If you are going to deal with
villagers, just get villagers, a trade, golden carrots.
Takes a lot to get that meet their food source that I've been
using on our glass is cooked porkchop.
See we had someone who did one of those haugland Farms.
Yeah, the first week I forgot myself AFK there overnight.
We ended up with like 20-something double chests of
cooked pork chop. Oh yeah.
Those things are so over P. Yep.
And that's the best way. Well, here's the thing.
Yes. They also Up leather.
So if I was going to build one, I would only use it for the
leather bracelet. That much leather for item
frames. Every one of the server just
looked great too cause black. Yeah, everyone just looks at me.
Go are you the reason my friends died when you get that?
No, I do not have that many item frames rum but I thought you
going to say bundles. Yeah, and because make a bunch
of bundles so I can burn them in lava Yeah, that's it for the
news. Like I said, I think it's one
step closer to a pre-release. I hope you're right.
Hope we see one soon. I hope I am too.
Then again, I don't because I have a lot of work to do on my
base. I like the pre-release season
because there's so much excitement.
I just like the like them energy Buzz that's in the community is,
is what I enjoy. I don't necessarily keep up with
all the updates, but I just enjoy the height.
Yeah, well yeah, I think about it with pre-releases.
I think we've had as All as like one or two pre-releases before
they release the update. But we've also had like 10
pre-release. So yeah, with the new release
coming out, definitely gets the community buzzin.
Yeah, things more active in Minecraft Community.
I'm just hoping for a earlier release date.
I don't want mid-December because a lot of us are already
going to be pretty busy. Yeah.
A mid December update. Might not be the greatest
especially Their servers that are going to launch right with
the update. Its ripple effect.
Season 4 is launching with the update.
You guys aren't waiting for any like plugins or anything.
We didn't last time but we're supposed to have a community
meeting here in the next little bit.
So I guess that will be talked about then I dunno.
I want replay mod. That's really hard to not have.
That's the big one OptiFine. But usually they're pretty
quick. I'm ditching us.
OptiFine, you going, I'm going. What's it called?
Sodium sodium, sodium works so much better.
The only reason I have OptiFine right now is because I have the
underwater dome and it looks absolute garbage without Kinect.
Laughs that's a good point. So if I didn't have that Dome, I
would have jumped on sodium's. Train a long time ago.
It doesn't have the same features as OptiFine, so don't
think of it as a replacement, but for me, Performance is
always better in my world, so I'm going sodium because it's
more performance in OptiFine. Let's go ahead and hop into
listener comments. We actually posted a question
from last week and that was, which enchantments us potion.
Would you guys pick from Jimbo and eyes discussion?
And the enchantment was the freeze enchantment for the
Trident, which I was super excited for Cadets.
That's such a fun one, to be able to stab something and turn
it into an ice cube. Jimmy was just hilarious.
Hmm. And then Jimbo's x-ray potion
was the other one? Qi D Hax?
They're both 24%. We got 83 votes on that.
That's pretty cool. Yeah, we do have a lot of
Spotify listeners. So yeah, thank you guys for
being a active there, and get involved in the boat.
Have more of those coming soon. I'm sure.
Mmm, we do have a couple listener comments.
Yeah, we're going to stick with Spotify.
This one's from black hole nerd. They asked what new items do you
think would fit in the deep dark?
Not just something with an exclusive enchantment but a
whole new item. Thank you for making the show
and I appreciate it. Keeping, it kid appropriate.
I mean, I want to use my button, but Carl says, I'm not allowed
to try very hard to keep it kid appropriate.
I didn't say anything. I just hit the button by the
way. Someone's gonna be like oh my
God. Oh my God.
Say no, I just hit a button. Just went to PG-13.
No, I want a grappling hook. Oh, that would be amazing.
I was considering that a grappling hook in the deep.
Dark wood be worth it. Yeah, because a lot of people
have talked about once they get into the new Big caves that it's
hard to get out of. So that would be an awesome item
to be able to just be like, okay I see a ledge up there.
Yoink. Yeah I'd mention it for the the
mountain update. I saw a mountain update as like,
how cool Be to have a grappling hook to get around these
mountains and in the caves to, yeah, there's a deep dark.
I mean, you have things like the twisty Vines and the Weeping
Vines from the nether, that could essentially do the same
thing. But then you're also carrying
bone meal with you say, nag rap, like hook, and it should be like
arrows. And the fact that you can,
you'll wind up wasting like string, or rope, or whatever.
So it's not just, I have a grappling hook, I can now just
Hook to everything infinitely, I would add value.
Mmm. Yeah I know keep spider farms
for a while where the big XP but then under Anders, hmm.
Yeah. As cave spiders Farms are so
dangerous to. They are so dangerous Jimbo died
like 20 times no season team 1:46 over and over.
Oh yeah, it was. I who died twenty times in the
beginning of a season. Yeah, but yeah.
It for me, it's interesting. Farm blaze farm and then the
cactus furnace Farm are all better XP Farms than a spider
farm. Trying to think of an item to
use down in the deep dark. I was thinkin grappling hook.
It's crazy said that I'm ahead of you.
I guess, I don't know. I kind of liked something to
help get around the deep dark, that's what well, that's why I
was thinking grappling hook, but something to like flashlights,
compress. Your Oops.
You know how there's things down there?
That can sense you now you know do your footsteps and you have
to what is it Crouch to get around to?
Yeah. Get through these or act.
Do they pick up crouching steps? I know the warden does it.
I don't think so. There's one block if you walk on
top of it, it will still pick you up.
But most of the other ones if you're crouching it wants into
okay? But if you walk directly on one
of them and I don't remember the names Somebody knew named
blocks. Yeah, it's the one that yells
this creature. Yeah, tickets ass creature.
Not too sure. Yeah.
Any type of interaction with that block will set it off.
Hmm. But yeah, what if we had
something that could suppress your your feet but then I was
thinking feather falling, you know maybe feather falling, if
you put those on your boots, maybe that could give you that
light footstep type of deal. I mean, you're just basically
asking for sneakers. Yes.
Yeah, I'm not that's not an item.
I'm gonna get anything really but whoa, leather boots might be
the closest thing. Yeah, because I gave it the
ability to stay on top of powdered snow.
So it's almost like it's light in your footsteps that kind of
makes sense. Yeah, maybe another reason to
wear them. Hmm, one idea I had and I don't
know if it's I've never heard of it before but would be an item
you get outside of the deep dark and taken with you.
If the I added the sound to the goat horn.
Yes. So you could blast it and
temporarily like immobilize the warden so like like it's just so
overwhelmed by the extra sound hmm that it like can't since you
for a short time like 30 seconds like that so you can book it for
a little bit and get a get a safe distance.
I think I actually mentioned that last week or the week
before I mentioned something about the go horn was still in
creative. Mode.
That was wrong. It's not even in creative mode.
Yeah. Yeah.
We were thinking of ways to use it.
Yeah. But no I had the exact same
idea. That's a good idea too.
If you want me to get around the ward and I want to over stimuli,
is it to a point where it freaks out?
Yeah. And just for a temporary, like,
if it's good. Invert and like you don't have
anything else like you know, yeah, possibly give it a cool
down. Yeah, with the horn can't blow
it over and over normally we would use knock-back for that
but you can't knock back warden. So it would make sense to be
able to paralyze it so you can get away.
Yeah. That's a good item.
Mmm, should we go to the next question?
Yeah, we have a question from kitty cat to what do you think?
Would would be a great use for the Matching table, currently,
it's useless, and there's there aren't any villagers around if
there aren't any villagers around, we've talked about this
couple times just briefly though.
For We Go Together. Hey Jimbo, you're sliding back
now. I put my mic down a little bit.
I think it's like face and my chin.
Let me put it up. I was watching the sound waves
on the back of it. Like Jimbo's really quiet.
I get like, Get Out. Start fading back here and then
Jimbo has The tendency in his wheel each heritage's, I'm like,
I end up in the Next Room. I'm like, how am I in here?
I didn't slide into the exact opposite problem if I get too
excited on stream and forget to pull away from my bike, if I
like it, I'm talking loud and excited.
It will start to death in my audience, they're like, oh my
gosh. You're so loud.
The Fletching table currently. Nothing.
I know it was meant for arrows to start with.
Yeah. But it was also supposed to be
part of Jeb's combat update, which I really thought was going
to get mentioned in mine cotton and it didn't.
Yeah, I mean, first thing you think of with Fletching table or
the bone arrow? I'm hoping that you know when it
does become an active Station that we can customize our arrows
in our bows, like I mentioned before.
I shoot a bow, shoot a longbow and pretty similar to the
Minecraft bow. And you never go to Bow Shoot
with someone with the same bow or arrows, you know, everyone's
got everything, customize and be nice to use that table.
To customize, your very own bone said of everyone, having the
same looking one, right? Using different words for
different. I know the Ability of a
real-life bow matters. So like, if you use Birch, for
example, is it softer or more flexible material than dark?
Oak, for example. So then you can get, I don't
know what that changes in real life shooting, but I have heard
that a flexible bow matters. Yeah.
There's certain, would that people prefer their bow to be
made out of bamboo. That's the only one I could
think. I'm sorry but there's a It's a
different big list I got and it's not even would in
Minecraft, mine will segue perfectly into mending
Minecraft. But fishing lures for fishing
rods. Okay.
That makes a lot of sense, too, because you have to crack those
with similar materials. There's a hint of what's to come
that. All we got for Fletcher table.
It's a hard table to come up with that ts4.
Yeah, yeah, you figure. I mean the crack Ting table can
already do all this stuff. Yeah, that's the devil for the
bone. And even on the side of it, it's
got your arrows and stuff on the crafting table, it's kind of.
I don't know. I think the only thing I would
add as a bit of like, the customizable bow aspect is just
how many different types of bows they have in dungeons because I
really started playing. I was surprised by all of that
and like, taking some of the inspiration for just the
different At ease that I can do. Yeah.
Oh, don't get me. Started on dungeon weapons and
armor. I love every bit of it and it
should be in Minecraft. I want it all exactly.
Building blocks. They have dirty stone bricks.
Why is that not a thing? Now, I want to be able to take
my course. Dirt makes it with my stone
brick and get basically Massey brick, but with dirt.
Yes, yeah, get dirty. Yeah.
Let's go ahead and move on. But thank you guys so much for
those comments. Some of them were from Spotify,
but one of them was from our Discord in our discords, the
only place where you can talk to everyone who works on the show,
easily, just take links word for it.
How are them? Honest.
And craft is Please come and join me on the with.
Ring right place to hang out with the people that work on the
show and other fellow listeners, like, yourselves.
The link is in the show notes. Join today, and let's discuss
the game we love. Thank you for the Discord, add
link each week on the show. We mentioned the top three
members who've been earning XP and leveling up by participating
in chat, excluding ourselves and moderators.
This week's top three discs or members are third ver, trees,
second kit, kitty cat to and first ski 3012.
Join in with chat on Discord and you could be mentioned next
week. Picking the squared is the only
place we can get involved in The Mending Minecraft vote this
week, we asked you to choose between one of three items for
Or us to discuss it and prove your choice is where the fishing
rod, the bow and saddle. And the winner of many Minecraft
this week is, Fishing rod. Congratulations, fishing rod.
Fishing rod, had 23 votes to burrow had 21 votes right behind
it. Mmm, and saddle with 14.
So it's pretty close. A few things on the fishing rod.
Fishing rod is a tool used primarily for fishing.
It's crafted with three sticks and two string.
There are two unique Chapman's for the fishing rod, lore and
luck of the see there's three different levels to each of
those. You can also Put mending and
Unbreaking on those do recommend that fishing rods, can be found
by fishing. Found in loot chest, drop by
drowned or traded with fishermen villagers.
The fishing rod can be used to hook mobs or items in Java
edition only and some entities and even players.
The fishing rod can be reeled in which drags them towards a
player and Deals. No damage.
You can also add a carrot or work fungi to the fishing rod to
control a pig. If it's the carrot, Strider with
the the war fungus sorry while riding them.
And that's all I have for the fishing rod.
One, I didn't realize Bedrock could not use a fishing rod to
pull entities to them. I think it's items such as
items. Well I can't hook an item in a
chest and pull it out. Yeah.
I don't it would have to be on the ground which would consider
it an entity. Okay.
Yeah. The fact that they can't do
that. I mean let's fix that because
some parity go in there. Yeah I've seen that mechanic
used in many. Games, so kind of limits their
ability to like play with that because it looks like a really
fun mechanic. Exactly.
Hmm. And then, when it comes to
things, I thought of there wasn't a lot with fishing rods.
They already have some unique cool functions in the fact that
you can put different items on to control different mobs in the
game. So I kind of wanted to continue
that with specific lures to catch specific kinds of fish.
So maybe you're only looking for Salmon.
So you need to come up with a custom salmon lure.
Again, this is why the Fletching table would be a nice table to
incorporate in here. You have I don't know, 12
different lures for several different fish.
The other thing would be when you catch a fish, maybe not have
it already come to you dead. So right have it like common
like flop around at your feet. Give you a chance to pick it up
with the water bucket. That's a good.
That's a good one. I'm just a man chuckling because
I'm a Imagining catching a puffer in that instance, that
would be amazing because it would poison you.
It's worth it. A little bit of spice of life
there. That's a good point.
It could be dangerous fishing, I mean real life.
Fishing is a Right? You gotta do what you gotta do.
It's way more realistic, that way at least, right?
And that's what I was going for. We have so many different
versions of tropical fish. Now that maybe you're looking
for one, kind of tropical fish that has a certain color
palette, it might be worth being able to custom a lure to that.
And if that's case, you don't want to hook it dead.
You want it to be alive. So maybe have it flop around at
your feet for a minute. Mmm.
So you can scoop it up and a bucket of water and now that
fish farms are kind of died out, You can't build them anyway,
this would be a good change in that sense you know especially
if you have a world that you can't find like the coral reef
and it would give you the opportunity to find some of
those tropical fish. If you're like see this limited,
very true. Mmm.
Now, we do have a suggestion from the Discord.
J-man says, maybe you can actually reel in the fish.
Okay. Yeah.
Instead of just throwing it out there and you automatically
catch it, maybe you got to time it.
It. I mean you kind of have the time
at now if you wait too long after the bobber starts.
Oh yeah, Robin. Yeah.
But then it's just one click to pull back.
I think he's like fighting with it.
If it's going to be a more rare item that comes back.
Oh yeah, would be a cool. So like you don't just, you know
activator like full got it. More of a challenge.
Yeah. Dead beneath.
Its one thing, I noticed in the Discord when the batsuit
suggested Just wondering how it would be implemented.
That's all right, all right, let's go ahead and move on to
our topics for quickly running out of time and we're going to
go over what we saw for 118. 119 and Zoda, you've made mention
that you guys are already planning your next season based
off the updates. Yes.
What are some of the things you're looking forward to in 118
119? I think the very first thing is
just the increased World tightly.
Ready to kind of give builds a like almost like a vertical
breathing space. Yes.
Because there was the first island we did this time had
floating islands and because of the world height limit like some
of them. I felt like I pulled them down
so that they that I could still build stuff on top of them but
then it felt like they were kind of interfering with some of the
Builds on the ground. So to be able to go vertical and
some of my Favorite builds in the history of Minecraft that
I've seen are these like awesome like like fairy towers are like
wizard towers and they just go up and up and up.
And so to have that vertical height and the ability to kind
of play with levels. More is definitely something.
I'm excited when I was first testing the money at teen caves
and cliffs update. There was a outpost on top of
one of the new types of Friends. And it just like it was, it was
little, it wasn't, it was teeny tiny on top of the mountain, but
it just sets such an impressive, like presence over the valley
below is like, we're watching you.
Yeah, nobody wants a squished build.
So yeah, vertical height could be, it's going to be much.
I like the fact that they went ahead and they raised the clouds
on top of that too. Yeah, course, I don't know many
YouTubers who actually play with clouds on it anymore.
It's like, oh, you're 50 blocks above the ground.
Here's a cloud. Yeah, yeah.
Actually plan on building in the sky next season two.
So I'm pretty excited with the new y levels.
What about the deep dark? Yeah.
Are you excited for the deep dark?
Are you just scared crapless? Like, me and Jimbo terrified.
Absolutely terrified. I am horrible at caving and
Mining. It's always the most dangerous
thing for me. Like, I could handle another
pretty Well, but actual caving. I always get myself in like
tight like confined spaces. So this this not So Much
Anymore, like it's not going to be tightening, fine.
It's just going to be all the mobs in my face and the amount
of caves. Now, mmm, it's so easy to get
lost in. Like if you were to die like
before, if I were dying in a cave, I could never find where I
was, you know, and now it's bigger I'm probably not even
going to get look like That girl's gone.
Yep, that's gone. Your start from scratch.
My husband is very excited for the deep dark though because he
very much likes to explore. So he's excited to get into the
cave system. So I think it's I think it's
nice that it's something that people feel differently about.
Yeah. I'm just, I'm just gonna let him
go down there. You have all that fun for me?
Yeah, definitely gonna enjoy the challenge.
Mmm. Oh yeah.
Having once. But unless there's something
really nice down there, which I hoping there are, they're
hinting at cool, new loot being down there.
Mmm, so hopefully there is, if not then yeah.
I'll explore it once and then I'm like, okay, I know what it's
like, see you. Yeah.
It's kind of the way in cities are now is like yeah, they were
fun to explore at first but now you get in.
Get your shelves in a light rain, you get out right there.
You have to make many trips feel like another Other thing on the
new update, we have a new mob coming.
Yeah. The islet was that the mob you
voted for? Or did you get to vote in the
mall boat? I did, I voted away in both
rounds. Nice, huh?
Yeah, I did too. It should be a lot of fun.
Not only the technical benefits that could come from it, but the
fact that you could have a little buddy following you
around, I was just scared for. The copper column was kind of my
second choice. Eyes.
I just know. My luck is.
It's in front of a door and I wouldn't be able to get in and
out. Out of that.
Be hilarious. That's true.
That's all I could see how it goes, like, no other.
Looks like I've with avoid that bad luck.
Bear. I had thought about that.
I might go to Fort to see that happen.
It's pretty funny. Yeah, copper Golem was my second
pick. Luckily, I didn't have to go to
that. My biggest worry about it was
the we have like too many armorstands create slag
nowadays, still so copper Golems.
We're going to be basically replacing armor stands in the
fact of statues and let's face it.
People were going to have those things all over the place.
Don't even ale is probably still going.
There's going to be someone who builds a sorting system with 40
of these sayings and every time it turns on lags everybody
server, I'm hoping the benefits outweigh.
Yeah, the downfall. Yeah.
We don't know how the performance going to be with it.
What about swamps you guys excited for swamps?
Oh yeah. They look so good though.
I still stand by. I don't think the rooted
Mangrove textures quite there yet.
Yeah. Was that a finished texture?
Was that just like, here's what we're working on.
Yeah, I don't think it's a finis finish texture.
That's why I'm kind of wasting the hey maybe you guys should
change that, please. I loved everything about it and
I felt really smart. We were having a like a live
watch in our Discord. And I was like, as soon as they
showed it was like, that's not dirt, that's not my silly but it
is that on the ground. Hmm.
I called it immediately. And everybody's like, what are
you talking about? It's probably just like, the,
like the shade or something? Like no, no, no, no, that's
different. That's a new block.
Yeah. The mud.
We kind of have a life party with just me Jimbo and Carl
except Jimbo was like 30 seconds behind Behind.
So we'd say it's love you. Like no that's this and like
dude. No.
He's black. Why are you guys so excited?
It's it's just a boat or something like that.
You guys should be talking about like, oh look, there's frogs.
You're like that was like a minute ago.
Yeah, man. Yes, kind of waiting on the
frogs. Oh, renewable Clay.
Is going to be huge to the only problem is, you can't automate
it. Yeah, there's going to be big
manual, clay forms. Well, I think like comfy and
I've watched, he does a lot of those Like proves that the
blocks that you think are hard to access are, you know, pretty
accessible if you grind it because like the powdered Snow
Bowl that he needed here, I was, I was pretty surprised by that.
So I'm seeing the renewable clave in very much.
The same light is like, yeah. If you've got a system in place
early and just like maintain it and, you know, do a little bit
of the time you slowly build up those resources over time then
you've got huge quantities, right?
And they are, sprinkling it out through the world to like you.
There's a lot of it in the Lush caves and they make it renewable
with the mud now. So that's pretty cool.
Mmm, what are your thoughts on frogs?
I was very surprised by the model so Derpy like yes, it's
the best part but I love What about there is biome
differences? I thought that was such a cool
thing because I know the original vote was just, I think
it just showed him in the swamps so to take them and to spread
them out and see what the effect would be of the biomes of the
whole world. So I just I thought that was a
really like a stroke of Genius. If I can say that because I was
like, I would have thought about that, right?
Yeah, it's something you didn't really expect.
Well, I can't say the Mojang Dev team whenever they're like.
We're going to implement this, they do a ton of research into
what they're implementing. So whoever was like, okay, let's
do frogs probably read for an entire week about frogs around
the world. Yeah.
I don't know if you're familiar
with Zelda but I don't like bees.
You know, never been a fan of bees in real life mainly but I
wanted the frogs to eat the bees.
You know. I wanted that to be a thing.
Apparently, they eat the fireflies, but I'm still hoping,
you know, the frogs can eat two bees.
I think I mentioned that every episode just trying to put out
there. Maybe they're listening to this
one. Yeah, that would be hilarious to
see. It's like Like in a cartoon like
the proportions just aren't quite right because like the be
and the Frog is going to be almost the same size from what
it looks like so far. So this looks like the bees
little bigger froggy in this big baby.
And if frogs everywhere, What else we got on the new update?
I think they are plan on fixing more biomes.
They really haven't shown much, you know, just the swamp, but it
is the Wild update and they are fixing, you know, biomes you
would think so. Yeah, well I mean we had the
artist rendition of new Birch, forests.
Yes and stuff. So there could be other stuff.
If we just got what we were showed still, wouldn't be a bad
update. Mmm, he said, I was kind of
hoping In for an inventory updates, I think we're getting
close to that time where it kind of needs to happen.
Yeah it's pretty unmanageable. A lot of times I found myself
carrying around like five or six Joker's to do detail work in our
Islands lately because you need like a bunch of wood variants
with them to Stone variants, a bunch of Deep Sleep variants.
All the all the, what you call the flight, the florals like the
bushes. And the Plants and all that,
like accessories. So, it's like you have a shelter
for all the different accessory blocks that you might need.
Yeah, and there's more blocks. Now, we with the mud.
The new wood. Mmm-hmm Mangrove would new
leaves. Yeah, I'm definitely digging
the, the mud bricks probably end up using those.
I don't know how I feel about her, man.
I need to see him in some more builds.
Yeah. I think on their own as a whole
build, it was overwhelming to me.
Like, I didn't like I understand what they wanted to show that
type of housing that is primarily made out of mud
bricks, but I think mixing it especially since that's kind of
how I build the most as mixed textures seeing it with other
items will will help me get more comfortable with it.
But I liked, I liked that there's another brick option
because the red bricks are sometimes hard to work with the.
I could see the mud bricks being used with a lot of stone bricks.
I think it's a similar pattern if I'm not.
Taken mix and match with those for texturing should be fun.
Yeah, the mangrove would. I'm was it.
I don't know too big on. I mean it's another would, you
know, it's a little different but fairly similar to the Jungle
I feel like eventually there's going to be a whole gradients of
wood and so they're going to like fill in all in between, but
it felt like a very weird starting point to go between two
of the least like least used woods and find a mix there
instead of Down a more gray, color was like a Driftwood or
something. It's something that gets
mentioned in my community a lot. Yeah.
I use occasionally logs like crazy just because that great
texture on the outside, acacia wood on itself.
No. Yeah.
You can't use the search
Librarians of it. Like I was trying to make a
petrified tree. I've tried twice the and I
don't, I don't learn from my own mistakes, but there's not until
you start mixing in the stone blocks.
You do. Get that like the ability to do
a really good organic shapes in a petrified tree because you
just don't have that type of wood, stair, and slab.
Yeah, and stripped log textures. Have been some of my favorite
wood textures and with the acacia you know, it goes orange,
so little off-putting guys, we are over time.
So I think that's going to do it for the show today.
