Hey everyone. Welcome to the weathering
effect. Episode 93.
Today's date is May 2nd 2021 and I am Duds or Duds versus known
to the rest of the interwebs now.
I'm Jimbo you may know me as Jimbo slice 23.
So what have you been up to this week?
Dead doors? I've heard, yeah, we talked a
little bit about this in the pre-show, there are some
Minecraft stuff, but the big thing that's really been in the
way this weekend is, I got doors for my office.
My office never had doors. It's basically a converted
dining room. It was really too small to be a
dining room, didn't have a closet to be a bedroom.
So I ended up turning it into an office, but it never came with
doors. So, me and my dad went Head and
saw some doors this weekend. We both were like, oh yes, we'll
take one day. It'll be a long day, but I'll
take one day here. We are eight o'clock at night
and I'm still pulling painters tape off the floor from painting
and it's Sunday. Now it's taking two days, two
full days. I was painting till 10:30 last
night. You mentioned the doors, not the
painting, so you had to paint the whole thing.
The doors were technically prehung, so they came with a
casing and hinges on that stuff already attached, which you
would think, would make it easy to install?
No, no, because I had to install it in a pre-existing wall, I
found out how off-kilter my wall is, it's not even close.
Mmm, that's the worst. Yeah, let's just say there's a
two-inch gap on one side of the door between the door in the
wall that we covered up. It's just like what there was a
casing for. Doors before they just never
installed the door. So we figured, well, let's
remove the old casing. We put this prehung one in there
with the new casing and it should be easy peasy.
Just slide it in. No no, no.
We took the old casing off found a huge gap where they were just
kind of using my scrap two-by-fours digital in there.
Yeah. And I get your supposed to shim
doors, to get them to line up, right?
You shouldn't have to use two by four is shim.
Right. Yeah, I've been there.
It took a lot to get the doors in place and they were they were
actually sanded from the factory which is really nice.
We thought we were going to have to sand them but no they they
sand it for us which was okay. But then I had to do a primer
coat on the doors won't end. We actually had to cut the hole
or the door handle which was another just the me and my dad
man. So we're looking at the door
knob directions and it's like, oh you need a was it a 2 and
1/8, Inch round drill bit. So we're like, What do we got?
We had two and a quarter, the van.
I guess that's a little bit too big.
It'll probably work but let's not chance it.
Let's go to the hardware store and get to 1/8.
So we go to the hardware store. We're like running through there
because we're trying to get this project done.
I look at the Shelf to 1/8 pulled, it came back, put it in
the drill, drilled the hole, go to line the door knob up and
it's not lining up like what the heck is going on here?
Oh no, the drill bit that's 20. An 1/8 was two and a half but it
was put on the two and 1/8 rack. Hmm, we didn't actually look at
the drill bit. We pulled it from the rack
thinking that was it because we were in a rush.
So now we had a whole that's way too big for the doorknob and we
bought a part that we didn't. Yeah, it's a little rough, it's
a little rough, the door handles on now and it's clean looking in
flesh. And I spent all night doing the
primer work just to wake up this morning and do three.
Coats of Paint because I'll be darned at primer.
Did not do what it said. It was going to be in my office
has just been a wreck sawdust everywhere.
We had to patch the wall. So like when we were pulling the
casing off the old one, hmm, it basically just the sheetrock had
this paper covering to it, that we had painted multiple times
and it just ripped that paper right off.
So I've been having to do some repair work on the laws and man,
dude, and I'm still not done yet.
I When I get off work tomorrow, I've got to come home and
finish, literally just, just a handyman.
Yeah, literally. Just taking a break to do the
show today. This is your break time is the
show. This is my break.
This is my rest my entire weekend.
Rest is doing the show. Yeah.
If you guys are familiar, we're actually doing this a little
later. It was a night.
Yeah, we normally do it about 10 a.m. our time, but it's 8 p.m.
or time. Hmm.
Yeah. Because I texted you guys
earlier and I was just like, guys, I am I'm going to get a
chance to get on and write the show today.
Like someone someone needs to do it for me because I have no
foreseeable future in front of me.
Yeah. Well I was able to get the notes
done. Let's see how I did.
Yeah. Minecraft wise Friday.
I did get along and play with Carlos.
Um, we did a really cool build but because I didn't get to work
on that episode at all this weekend.
I don't know if it's going to come out before this episode
airs and I really don't want to spoil This episode because it's
kind of fun. Hmm, so I'm not going to really
talk about. Instead you guys got door, talk
for five minutes. Yeah.
Why didn't play much my crap either.
I know your bottles were empty again.
Yeah. That's how you know, that's one
way. No bottles.
Yeah. I've been playing much.
I started editing a little bit and then I started looking for
music for the edit. It's the race and I saved it and
just have it gone. Back to it.
I guess I did. I have been getting into the
third life Series. Yeah, I've been watching a lot
of creators and their different points of view, and it just,
it's been. It's been pretty entertaining
watching. Everyone's point of view.
And we, I think it was last week.
We talked about this in the pre-show about these new smps.
Yeah. How much different they are and
how much fun they are. Yeah, probably watched eight
different people's point of view on the third life.
Yeah. And what the two weeks I think
it is they've done and it's a lot of fun.
I definitely recommend it to people besides that.
I mean that's like the only Minecraft I've been doing what
we did. Get us a snapshot not much
Minecraft out there. Yeah.
Think we're getting revved up for the release soon.
I would hope so because we're in a dry spell from who who knows
when the lot of the snapshots are just two weeks which are
fine. There's no problem with that is
just It makes really hard content creation.
Mmm, when it a lot of it depends on new stuff coming out for
Minecraft, especially when this is the new stuff season.
Like we don't line up guests usually around this time because
usually we have snapshots coming out every week and there's new
stuff talk about every week. And now we're getting small
snapshots that aren't really filled with a ton, because we're
splitting the updates and again we're fine with splitting the
updates I'd much rather than get it right.
And Yeah but on anything wrong but it makes it hard.
It's just yeah come up with the consistent topics.
We would love to just do the news.
Yeah but we have time to fill. Yeah.
So which brings us if you guys want us to talk about something
tweet us Discord us, email us. Yeah we always want to talk
about other stuff. It's just we might not be
thinking about something that you want us to think about.
So definitely do that. So they actually today, I won
the Bow. Shoot, nice.
Yeah, I telling you for a while. Now, go these, these bow shoots
like once a weekend, maybe every other weekend.
Usually, Sunday, morning for those, who don't know, go ahead
and do it like a quick explanation.
What about shoot is? Ah, yes, both shoot is, you got
your bone arrow? There's a trail, it's similar to
golf. Like, you have, you have your
trail that takes you through the woods, usually, and you come
across Ross like Target one and you'll see your where you're
supposed to stay in it. There's a stake in the ground
and about 25 30 yards away. There's a fake deer or fake bear
or something that that your target.
That's what you got to shoot at ya.
I use a traditional bow, which is just a longbow.
It's not got the compound power to it, so at the compound boats,
like a traditional old-school Longbow.
Yeah, because that's what my father-in-law uses and that's
what he got me using. It's a lot.
It's a lot more challenging than a compound bow.
Yeah, you hit the target, you get Five Points.
You hit the inside of the insert of the target, its eight points
and then there's a like a bull's eye in the middle.
You get 10 if you get in the middle.
Yeah that's how you score it and there's 30 targets you just go
around in the woods you know the path is marked and you hit your
targets and we all add up our scores and end up winning
today's first time I've won in a long time.
Nice. And it feels good.
I got one eye now. Now, so it kind of helps because
usually you're supposed to close one eye when you aim and I never
did that. So, I think it's helping my aim
actually. Yeah, I don't know about the
closing, the eye thing. I've always heard that good
shots don't close any. I that's what I heard that
before, too. So I don't know, naturally, I
would just keep both eyes open, but I don't really have a
choice. Yeah.
And actually it's been helped and I could see down the arrow
better looking out of one eye. I That's what helps.
Yeah, it's definitely challenging, it's not easy.
I bet, you know, it should we move on to the news?
Yeah. So much of it.
Yeah. So obviously we're trying to,
we're going to go back. We're going to try the new way
of doing the news, none of you guys really complained.
Mmm. So we're just going to kind of
talk about news instead of reading it from the paper like
we normally do or used to do. I should say.
Yeah. Let's talk about some large.
Or veins because they're tweaking those again now.
Hmm. So my biggest complaint before
was there just so massive and everything it obviously feels.
They're trying to offset. How easy Farms are being made
like iron Farms, but these veins were so massive.
It's like one vein would do me and you for a season.
Yeah. We'd be fine like that.
The snapshot seems that they're they're tiny.
They're trying to rein that in a bit.
So now they're a little bit more rare, a little bit smaller but
obviously, Huge. Yeah.
Again, it's like a root kind of Branch.
Yeah, look in vain. I'm not a fan of these new
veins. I kind of really, like the old
way veins were done, but then again, I'm a farmer guy.
I would much rather build a farm.
Then go mining or caving do, maybe that has something to do
with that? I really, I really like it.
I think it's really different again.
I don't know. You don't really need.
The iron farm right away. I mean, it seems like there's
plenty of or once you find like that at endocyte pot or what a
tough, I think. Yeah, Tufts with iron.
Yeah. Once you find like one of those
Pockets, like I feel like you can gather enough iron to get
you through for a while, nothing easier than an iron farm though.
Of course, you'll write want one of those, but yeah, I also
noticed that there is like, the actual the raw block can develop
in these veins. Also, I did not know that.
You can get a raw copper block just appear inside the not the
yeah, the granite. Hmm.
The granite veins. Yeah, and obviously, you can
break down the raw block into the or, as we've seen.
Yeah, they did change the crafting because they're so
common. I think they changed it back to
9 raw or can make a raw block one.
It makes sense. Well, no, not the raw block.
I think it ingots nine ingots, for Or a copper block, not the
raw or block. Yeah, they change that to 4
while ago but they changed it back to nine inning its yeah
which makes sense because to make an iron block you need nine
iron ingot. It's kind of in line with all
that which makes sense and the fact that copper is going to be
so readily available. If you find one of these veins.
Yeah, makes sense. Yeah, I was kind of curious long
time ago. How common this copper is going
to be. It looks like it's going to be
just as much as there is iron. Yeah, in that case you think
there'd be more copper items to come.
Yeah. And they're actually going to be
using fortune on copper now too so they normally drop to 23 mmm.
But now you could add Fortune to it.
I think you can get up to nine with a fortune pickaxe.
Yep. Yeah.
Off the raw crazy. Yeah.
The raw or hmm, I should say that.
Yeah, it's pretty amazing. I saw even though the caves and
cliffs update as next time. We're getting a bit of caves in
this update, maybe or maybe this was them pre-testing stuff for
118, but they were going to add what they call it a squiggly ER
and claustrophobic variant of caves.
Yeah. Not a fan of those know, they're
almost a little too tight. Mmm, Exuma had an example, where
he was walking through him, and you kind of don't, I mean, they
don't know. They end abruptly, I guess, you
could poke through one cluster, Big cave into another
claustrophobic Cade right, but it does seem annoying.
There's nothing nothing really in there to write home about,
right? One thing though, some people
might not know about you is I am claustrophobic in real life,
don't like tight areas, not cool, the game, doesn't I say,
it doesn't affect me much. It does tight areas in Minecraft
makes me motion. Sick, not so much
claustrophobic. So the fact that they're adding
something that quite literally He makes me sick to my stomach
is just like no I'm not going to deal with that and I'm and I
always complaining about this lately with this update, it's
more stuff. I'm going to have to light up to
help the server run. Okay.
So I don't have stupid mobs spawning everywhere and thinner
and squiggly ER sounds like they're harder to find.
It sounds like they're harder to find.
Yeah the way I do it now. As I do replay mod and record me
hunting for caves. Just to see if I missed any near
me. Now that's the way to go.
Yeah. Didn't notice they brought in
drip leaves. You can place on Moss blocks.
I don't know if that was like a bug before.
It sounds like a bug. Yeah.
Wouldn't see why? That wouldn't be a thing before
but it's mentioned in the changes but you can now put
drift leaves on top of moss, box, gotcha, and Moss blocks.
If you were to bonemeal them, usually they would return every
block around them into the Moss faryon.
Oh yeah. You're right.
No longer. Can you convert sand and gravel,
right? Yeah, to the Moss phlox.
That makes sense because that that like a whole different kind
of mineral. Yeah, I'm going to say, I don't
know better who it is. Mmm.
Also got different attributes. I guess.
Yeah. I like it makes sense.
Yeah but I think that's the news like like we said there was not
a lot of news this week know you've seen A lot of, you know,
we've seen a lot of it already. Yeah, I think like again,
they're just tweaking some things.
Yeah, polishing it up. Might see a release or
pre-release coming. Do we want to go ahead and put a
bet on when the full release 4117 will be out again?
I'm okay with that. Let's not do a diamond block now
because let's face it. We both have diamond blocks
falling out of our pockets on the server because we've been
around so long starter has been up almost a year already.
So so now the right block no no not that I don't know what would
be a good? Let's let's let the community to
decide. Okay.
What the BET will be. Yeah.
I like it. Obviously we're not going to do
anything crazy. We're not going to do anything
to hinder us from playing the game.
A good example would be like Tango and Ethos fire rocket bet.
Do you remember that? No tengo had to use a real
firework instead of Rocket anytime he flew.
Mmm, I didn't know that. Yeah, so every time you flew he
would take damage because his rocket would backfire.
That's a fun bet. Yeah, they did it for a month
but we're not going to do that for a month.
We would do it for like an episode or something like that.
Yeah. And something different.
Yeah, something different. We'll let you guys decide.
This could end up really bad. But let's wait to hear what they
want the BET to be, and then we'll announce what date we are
guessing. Okay, I'll do that first.
Well, then we'll do that when we know what we're going to bet.
Yeah. What the bed is first.
Yeah, yeah, exactly. We'll make it to do.
Watch next, week's going to have so much news.
We're not going to have time for her, but it all will have time
over. Have it will make time Jimbo
wants to even the score up, right?
All right. Well, let's move into some
listener comments. We've got a couple this week.
This is an email from. I'm going to say noise.
And again, I'm sorry if I Your name wrong, I am horrible at
reading names but it's in oh, I yeah, I would pronounce it
noise. They say first, I'm a huge fan
of your podcast. It's one of the best out there.
Thank you very much. I am glad you enjoyed the show.
Thank you. Anyways, here's my point.
I was looking back at episode 5, mobs, mobs and more mobs and you
were talking about taming a ravager you guys said, you could
hold an ominous Banner to tame it.
I was thinking that you could hold the ominous Banner then.
Then feed it. A emerald block, also.
I'm drawing the Overworld Dragon.
I'll send it when I'm done with it.
Have a good day's, your favorite podcast listener noise.
Thank you so much for all the compliments and yes, send the
Overworld dragon art. Yeah, I love fan art.
I save fan art. So, that's great.
We don't get a lot of it and I always get excited about stuff
like that and they're talking about.
So this was before you were here.
This is where Nu is me and Bank. Yeah.
And we were talking about how it would be cool to Tamar ravager
and stuff like that. Yeah.
How do you feel? How would you, how would you
think Mojang would make it? So you could tame a ravager.
I really like the idea of holding a banner.
They're familiar with banners. Yeah, something Pillager ask you
would have to do the emerald block.
I don't think being in an emerald block would do, I don't
know, I just don't find them appetizing.
I don't know if a ranger would maybe like a Mm.
Something like that. Maybe that could be used to tame
them but not an emerald block. I don't know.
I do like the idea of having a banner, I guess, calm down the
ravager, maybe he'll become peaceful and then to tame them.
Maybe a totem, something along those lines.
So it's going back and thinking about this and I agree, I think
the banner is definitely a cool way to go, but if Mojang were
ever to incorporate mob drop heads, you should definitely
have to wear the Head of one of the villagers.
So again, like you're blending in.
Mmm, you're tricking the ravaged kind of like, in the nether with
the Penguins, right? And that's something I've always
liked. If you go back and look at
breath of the wild, love that game.
One of the things about the game is you can have masks of these
of your basically enemies and wearing certain masks around
certain enemies will allow you to kind of sneak past those
enemies first. A certain amount of range and
time. So having that feature kind of
added to the game would be really cool like if you needed
to move a creeper so you put a creeper face on this is a
Cooper. Didn't automatically blow you up
every time you try to do something.
Yeah. But it would obviously only work
for a certain time so that's just as like if you got right up
on a creeper he would obviously be able to say.
This ain't a creeper boom. Yeah.
Make him some time to think it out.
Correct. Exactly.
I thought I always thought that would be really cool to add to
the game. Yeah, just the fact that you can
mingle with their heads on. Yeah.
Hey, I've got your buddy's face on mingle with me.
Mmm. Yeah.
If there's any way to like blend in the mop head drops would have
to come in to effect, you know? Yeah, I mean you have the gold
in the nether. You can kind of blend in with
the pigs. Pretty sure.
They know you're not a big they just like the gold exactly.
They're blinded. By treasure.
Mmm, I agree with you. The emerald block seems a little
out there but then if you think about it earlier, Drew villagers
are full of emeralds, right? Maybe emeralds are just like
Scooby snacks or Villa or ravagers.
Maybe that's why they have so many emeralds on them.
So it kind of makes sense but I like to think of the emeralds
more as plunder instead of Scooby Snacks.
Yes it more. It's like a currency.
Yeah I always thought you Be able to lure a villager with an
emerald because, you know, you have to, you have to push them
in boats to get villagers around or Minecart.
What if like most most mobs? Do you have like a wheat in your
hand? A cow will follow you.
What if you had emerald in the Villager would follow always
thought? That would be neat?
Well I mean you can do that now with a workstation or a bed
depending on the time of day it is.
That's true. Yeah.
Workstations to work. Thank you.
Depends on me, you have around villagers but yeah.
That that is one way got about that.
Yeah, we can't have. We can't have Emeril hungry
villagers on the server's. Right?
And it's over World dragon. Now, I know you guys talked
about it a lot. Yeah.
Back in the day. Red dragon, red dragon.
I even mentioned a scenario for a red dragon or a dragon.
Yeah, I'm not sold on the color. You would think if any, if any
update would be a dragon update, it would be this one, you know,
with the caves in the cliffs and we're not getting a dragon.
Now we're getting a warden. How's that make you feel?
Yeah, yeah, I guess not even just yet the end of the year,
but I don't know. But like, Dragon be a good
opportunity. Well, my Dragon lives in Sky
Islands, not in caves. So, okay.
We do have a little extra Sky. Now, we do have some extra Sky
which is really cool. Nothing up there really zipper?
No, I'm mountains. So I'm gonna hope that Mojang
goes man, there's a lot of space up here.
We didn't put anything up here. Let's create a new biome called
The Sky Islands. Oh wait, we need a new mob, for
the sky islands. What's a good mob for that?
I don't know. A dragon.
Maybe that's our good in an ideal world.
That's how it would go down. Yeah.
And if it does this Is whatever the snapshot comes out.
You sure bet I will be playing on a snapshot because you know,
I'm not one that goes in place on the snapshots.
I'd like to wait for the full release and play it all together
when it comes out. But it's I'll make an exception
for Red Dragons. It's almost like they did it for
you. In that case.
Yeah, yeah, that was like they put it in there just for you to
play with. So you kind of have to yeah,
that's why I don't think it'll happen.
They're be like he talked about about bundles.
He gets no dragon, we wait a while for that.
Anyways, so we go ahead and move on to our next listener.
Comment, I have a comment from dirty blond 655 ask what
features are other things? Would it take to switch?
You guys, from java to bedrock, real a mod.
That's a good one. That's, that's the big one.
I didn't use replay mod to the start of this season, like I
think I forget what episode was. It was like Or three.
Where are maybe it was for whenever I've got my nether
right armor for the first time I did like an Iron Man suit up
seen using replay mod and that was the first time I had ever
used replay mod, and I struggled with it to the point where it's
like, I'm not going to use this stupid stuff anymore, blah,
blah, blah. If I don't have repaid by now, I
can't make videos. I can't do it.
I need it. It's glorious.
Hmm. It's it's one of those things
that really Ali does add high quality value to your videos.
I definitely recommend anyone who's wanting to do ty'lexus,
use replay mod. Yeah, that's what I was
struggling with, yeah, editing this week, I didn't have replay
mod on. It would help so much, but man,
that's a good one. I didn't think about replay mod
Bedrock. Doesn't have those kind of
features, like even the F3 screen man, what a loss for
them. Yeah, not to That screen.
It's so useful but I think I'll know Bedrock has just a
different feel man. I played I played Xbox long time
ago and then I convert it over to the Bedrock version on the
Xbox and it seemed different. And I'm like, I don't know about
this, right? And that's when I get the, I get
the PC and I was like, this feels a lot better.
I just think the Bedrock the, you know, the Windows 10 version
or whatever. Hmm, how does it just feels
different? Yeah, I don't know if they could
ever get that feel back. The sounds and everything from
java to bedrock. That's something that could help
me convert just on a better feel for me.
The big thing is, is just not parody enough right now for
anyone who doesn't know any better, it's good enough.
Hmm. Like you you won't you won't see
a big deal and doing it. Anybody who dabbles in technical
side. Including the Bedrock players.
There are Technical and Java technical are completely
different. Both those guys girls and all
that, they're highly skilled and they know how to manipulate the
game to get what they need. But it does not talk well across
platforms, right? So, Redstone parody would
definitely a big one and I don't care if it's getting rid of
Quasi connectivity and Java or giving quasi connectivity to
bedrock. Ugh.
Preferably give Bedrock quasi Keck connectivity but I can see
where like that seems next to Impossible.
Almost like getting rid of Quasi connectivity in Java seems next
to impossible. So I don't know.
Yeah. They both have their pros and
cons, I guess I've been wanting to make a.
What tried and killer. Yeah, that's one thing I do.
Want to make those a couple things in Bedrock.
I want to mess with but uh, I don't know.
I just feel like Java is the more Superior just to feel of it
just the way, I don't know. It feels I guess I don't know
how I can word it any different that keep saying the same thing.
It's like when you get a new pair of pants and you put the
new pants on and they look good, they work, good, they their
pants. Mmm.
It's not that difficult but then you put on that pair of pants
you've had for five years and you've like worn in the butt
Groove and you're like this is better, okay?
But it's really not It's still a pair of pants.
It's just you're used to those pants more than you are the new
pants. That's exactly.
What is what we're used to. I'm coming over.
Somebody's stupid analogy is lately.
Analogy was at. Hey, it's but it got across
exactly what you were feeling did not.
Yeah, you're right. I hit two birds with one stone
right there. Mmm.
I explained what Jimbo was feeling and to I ticked off Omni
because I talked about Pants for two minutes.
Yeah, done deal. Yeah, got pants in there and I'm
going to get disappointed, walrus pictures, sitting yams.
I'm okay with like parody changes.
Yeah. I think it's cool that they're
starting to get a little closer and closer.
But yeah, there's definitely things that set them apart and
tilt Bedrock. Gets that Java feel?
I don't think I can leave Java. Yeah.
The fancy Graphics does want to pull me away.
Yeah. That really helps.
Mmm. Yeah, if I were to go to
bedrock, let's say, if I were to go, now, I would end up having
to change the way I play. Hmm, not, not dramatically
change the way I play, but I would have to do it a little
bit. Obviously, the way I do redstone
is and I'm war in experience, level, and also my Farms aren't
meant to produce massive amounts of output.
I don't like That I hate when people are like well it doesn't
produce tens of thousands in an hour so it's not good enough.
It's like when am I going to use tens of thousands of cactus in
an hour right? It's dumb.
All my Farms are meant to kind of because they all run at my
base. I like having things close by.
So at the same time, I'm going, there are going to be constantly
running. I don't need a ton of it and I
can make them extremely small. So that helps with server lag
win-win-win. In the triple win.
Yeah, I wouldn't know how to downscale farms for Bedrock so
that would be one of the things I would need to change about my
gameplay with Java. For me it's easy I can watch a
tutorial like oh that's how they built it.
I can get rid of that, I can get rid of that, I can add this, get
rid of that, get rid of that. And that's how I do my Farms.
It's usually someone's tutorial that I've chopped up to make
what I need. Well wouldn't be able to do that
Bedrock. I don't know the ins and outs of
The technical side as well. Yeah, I know some are similar
but there's definitely some differences.
Yeah, like the iron Farms, holy cow.
Yeah, I had no idea. There's been change for Bedrock,
I'm so sorry. Just seeing how Iron Farms are
having to be made is almost enough to go.
Yeah bring on those giant vain. Mmm.
Maybe that is why we're getting the giant veins as for the
Bedrock people to not have to build those iron Farms because
those are if you are Our a Bedrock player, building those
iron Farms GG like I'm sorry, our iron Farms are so much
easier and Compact and produce way better.
The fact you guys got stuck with that.
It's like I'm sorry yeah I mean Iron Farms better than no iron
farm but this is true. Obviously building that farm
proves you have a wicked amounts of patience.
Yeah, so awesome. You are a better person than I
am. I would have shot those
villagers in the face after about Minutes.
Yeah, you almost need a teammate to put those together.
Yeah, fancy Graphics learning Redstone, that's kind of to meet
the big draw. Would be just playing on a new
platform. Yeah yeah, I mean that obviously
goes old after a while and that's the glory part of java.
It's kind of like it's my old comfy pants so I can just I can
just peddle around and do things and not have to worry if I'm
breaking something. When I like one of the Farms me
and Karl made needed one of your flying machine TNT.
Duper's, it needs to go a certain direction and man, we
didn't put the farm in the correct place.
So I had to rotate that thing and I went, we're going to we're
just gonna blow up the farm right now.
We're gonna blow it up, it's going to blow up.
Let's be prepared to rebuild the saying it's going to happen.
Sure enough. It didn't blow up.
Ah yeah money. I'm gonna put money on it.
And it was blown up, I think me and Carl.
When it work, we're just like, oh, look at that.
It didn't kind of a lot of the next 30 minutes to rebuild in
this thing. What are we going to do now?
Yeah, pretty sure. Flying machines are a lot
different, a Bedrock. I've never seen a flying machine
on Bedrock. I'm sure they exist but I'm not
seen one. Yeah, I can't think of any but I
played a little bit rock. I was like a week.
I think it was when the r-tx was coming out and everything.
After you play it a couple days you really can't tell right?
Until like you do something and you're like, confused, like you
put a block in front of your feet.
You're like hold on how in the world that had happened, you
know. Stuff like that.
You do things that aren't paired yet Minecraft Jesus.
Yeah. Like you said, whatever.
You're used to is where your happy place is regardless if
it's Bedrock or Java if you're so used to bedrock, probably not
going to convert over to Java even though it's way better.
To me, whatever you're comfortable with that.
That's your place. Yeah, for me, it's all the
content creation, and little bit of my, I'd have to have my
gameplay flow into bedrock and I would need all my little things.
I use for Content creation to be there, too.
Yeah, mainly replay mod, I don't think I would need OptiFine as
much. Obviously, because Bedrock, I
don't think runs as hard as the Java version does the job.
Aversion really does take a little bit of CPU processing
power. Yeah.
And I don't I don't think the Bedrock version does, they've
got a lot more things. Figured out cleanly to help with
that data packs, would do. I know they have add-ons for
Bedrock. Do they have data backs?
I don't know, I don't know, either.
I think they are considered add-ons.
Okay? Could be wrong.
Say, and I'm sure we've been told this before and we're just
being dumb and forgetting things.
Absolutely. All right, so we move on to
Meaning Minecraft again. Thank you dirty blond, thank you
nor I for your comments and if I got your name, wrong noise, let
me know and I'll fix it in the next episode.
But yeah, those comments. Well, one of those comments was
from our Discord and Discord is the only place you could talk to
everyone who works on the show. Easily just take Casas word for
it. Is this thing on?
I'm cast and I'm here to figure out why you have yet to join the
withering effect Discord. It's a great place to hang out
with order Minecraft enthusiasts and the creators of the show.
The link to join the Discord is in the show notes.
Thank you for the Discord, add Cass.
And speaking of the Discord, it's the only place you can get
involved in our mending. Minecraft vote this week's vote,
we asked you to choose between one of three mobs for us to
discuss and improve your choices were Turtle donkey, or
endermite, and the winner of mending Minecraft.
This week is endermite by a landslide.
Ali. Yeah I was kind of root for the
endermite. Not much to it and there might
did have forty eight votes donkey had 14 in the turtle was
seven. I love for the turtle few things
on the inner might and termites are small Hostile Mobs.
That may spawn when the player throws, an enderpearl and
termites have 5% chance to spawn.
When an when an enderpearl lands, thrown by another player,
the endermite spawns where the player through the Pearl, not
where the Pearl lands and termites despawn.
Within two minutes, regardless of the players distance from the
under might, except for when you name tag them, of course, due to
being arthropods. They are affected by the Bane of
Arthropods jam. It didn't know that.
Hmm. And intermittent can Target an
endermite up to 64 blocks away. That's our main enemy right
there? Yeah.
Think to Enders would be friends, but no, they don't like
each other. They do not.
And that's one of the cool things about the inner.
My x-rays. One of The only cool things
about the endermite, is the fact that internment for some reason,
just just hate them like badly, like bugs, they don't like bugs.
I don't like bugs either. Mmm, when thinking about
improving the endermite, I had to figure out what the heck is
an inter. Might obviously, it looks a lot
like the silverfish. Correct.
Yeah. You know, but purple.
Yeah. Not as snake-like.
Yeah, more chubby. Yeah.
Square. Like a little box.
So in thinking about this in your might, I was trying to
compare it to Insects we have around and the one I really
thought about was like an ant. Hmm.
Mainly because of the exoskeleton, the way I'm
thinking is what if inner might aren't squishy little worms but
hard-shelled ants kind of okay. You just can't see their feet
obviously. So imagine an inner might when
you Ooh, kill it. It obviously doesn't squish, but
acts more like a shulker and drops a shell.
Now, we're not making a show car boxes with into my shells.
That's a little overpowered and stuff.
Yeah, that being said there might be some more overpowered
things you can do to it. The only other thing, that drops
something like this would be the turtles drop in the scoots.
So imagine an integer, my dropping an inter scoot or
something like that. They used in can Eight shells
that you can then create. I don't know, armor kind of like
the turtle shell turtle shell gives you the special property
of underwater breathing for 10 seconds.
You say what I'm think you're going to say maybe what do you
think I'm going to say void breathing kind of look kind of
young? You can resist, resist a void
for 10 seconds now, NADA. All right, not even close.
Okay, now I'm curious I'm going with if you have A piece of
inder my armor on and something hits.
You it teleports you ten blocks away.
Mmm. So you automatically get at a
danger / you easily. Yeah.
We're put you in danger again or put your dick.
This is not a very effective piece of armor and I really
compared it to the turtle shell armor because the turtle shell
while watering these cool. It's only got a 10 second life
span. So it's just like, Why bother?
Yeah, basically, if you were the turtle shell, it's just for
looks not for special abilities. And this inder armor would kind
of be the same. You would wear it for the fun of
it. Not so much, its special
abilities because while getting teleported is cool, it's when
you get hit, you can't really control so your buddy could walk
up behind you go. What's up bud?
Pop teleport, it would be hilarious.
That's the problem with the endermite.
It doesn't drop anything. It doesn't drop anything,
doesn't drop a thing. I wouldn't mind if it did, they
did the mob heads and it just dropped its head.
Perfectly fine. Mmm, I was thinking maybe like
an Eye of Ender, not just an enderpearl, maybe every once in
a while you get a chance of them, dropping an Eye of Ender
would be rare. I mean, it's rare to get an
endermite. Yeah.
And on top of that, if it's like a 10% chance, they drop an Eye
of Ender. Yeah.
Even rarer, it be more worth going after the blaze rods and
making them in that case. But I don't know, give them
something to drop. It would give a reason to the in
German not liking in termites. Yeah, because they have fancier
pearls. Mmm.
Another thing I had an idea for for these indoor.
Scoot / shells, is you could take an inner chest, surround it
with the shells, and that would expand your inner chest to
double size. Eyes because I think that's
something everyone's been wanting for a while now.
Yeah, like that. And obviously because you're
having to kill an endermite to get a scooter and you have to
take the scoot to create a shell.
Now you have to create eight shells, that's something that's
not super easily obtainable. So I mean, it's not super hard
in the fact that you just have to spawn.
Enter my and then kill endermite.
And those are not very hard things to do, but the grind is
there. So, Yeah, definitely some
balance here. I think so I thought that was
pretty cool. Again, I've been busy all
weekend so I didn't have a lot of time to think about it but
these little changes could make endermite one of the coolest
mobs in the game just saying. Yeah, I would like, I don't
know, a different look. They kind of, you know, they're
just that little square box. Yeah.
Yeah, they got their particles or whatever.
Their one eye, it's just, I don't know.
I like the fact that they're small and they're hard to hit
But like, I don't know, I figure if they were small, they might
be a little bit quicker. Maybe they can get to you a
little bit quicker. I know they're already annoying
as it is. Yeah, I'm just thinking of
different stuff that maybe you could do based on its size.
Hmm. Maybe it has like the ability to
jump, two blocks or something. I don't know.
I feel like it needs more. Yeah, there's not much behind
it. It's mainly used for a lure, you
know, you'll or Enderman, the main thing you do with them.
And that's the hard part about doing this stuff.
Is we always make mention of stuff that sounds like it could
fit in the vanilla game. Generally, we don't try to push
The Mending Minecraft much further past that right there
are times when we're like, okay we're going to push the
boundaries here and this really shouldn't be in the game but
we're going to talk about it anyways, but for the most part,
we always try to stay as close to if Mojang were to take our
ideas and use it, it would feel natural.
So keep that in mind. We do play The Balancing Act,
there were ideas. I had that we're really Opie
like riding the inner might don't ask how that soapy but it
could be. Yeah, yeah, I never really
thought about how that would be done, right?
But imagine writing and your mind into a one block area
because it's an endermite each shrink down like Ant-Man.
Yeah, now we're on the some yeah.
Now we're on to game breaking stuff.
So Don't go there. Yeah that's not gonna happen.
No no most of us say we go say man, I totally forgot you got
surprised by the shrinking guy and he went.
No yeah boss train of thought after the Ant-Man reference yeah
and it is gone. Alright.
Well do you think that's going to do it for the show?
I think so. I mean, that's pretty much all
we got for the endermite before I have Jimbo reaches out.
I want to say a huge Yes. Thank you to all of our patrons
