    Minecraft Live in a short post:
    26.2 coming June 16 (no Friends list networking, that's now TBD), new gray wood set, wool stairs and slabs, red bush, 2 new leaf types (one fixed red, one biome colored, both same textures by the looks of it). Adventure Update 2 also TBD.
    The update wasn't designed by the Sweden team by the looks of it, they're probably working on the Friends list networking - in which case we'll get it in the next update as well.

    Microslop has recently stolen Skyblock from it's original creator, Noobcrew.
    If you are a good creator using the Skyblock name in your own creations, please clearly state that Noobcrew is the original source and leave a link to their website: Skyblock.net.

    It might be too late now, but it serves as a reminder to always cite your sources, because the lack of sources is one of the key reasons to the courts' legal decision to take away Noobcrew's ownership of Skyblock, the one thing that can legally stop companies from using the good of Skyblock name to churn out absolute slopfests. You never know who's really using your works, and for what purpose. Always cite your sources, folks.
    Sul4ur I don't remember this being the first time Skyblock got stolen.

    This one is big though - a judge ruled in favor of Microslop on the lawsuit. Microslop and similar slop comps like Razzleberries and Jigarbov can now say they made the original Skyblock, net a ton of money from a concept they actually didn't start, and the original creator is legally not allowed to stop them.

    Of course, there were other things that big corps do which we can't easily control, but citing sources is not one of those things, so I chose to put that out there instead.

    Finally, the icons from my website has been properly updated across the board.
    Google has a lot of resources but they sure take a while to update these things.
    (Takes 3 weeks for my case, and I've been bugging them a lot about it too)

    EDIT: Okay, not everywhere everywhere, but still, most of it is now updated.

    Today I learned that if you Silk Touch 8 Snow Layers you get a Snow Block.
    Working on a tool that basically recaps every single piece of game interaction across a wide set of versions for use in future projects, and it's shown me a lot so far.

    Lodestone Compasses are pretty interesting. If the Lodestone is broken, and a loaded entity was carrying one linked to said Lodestone when it is broken, the Compass will break. Broken compasses stack together when placed in chests. Copper Golems can help you sort items.

    Putting all that together: if you break a Lodestone thousands of blocks away from a loaded Lodestone Compass (carried by, say a Copper Golem), the then broken one can be sorted into a Chest which is a trigger that lets you snap an Ender Pearl Chamber thousands of blocks away.

    Vanilla Teleportation, without any fancy HUDs.
    It doesn't really work between dimensions because that's not how Lodestone Compasses work, but still.

    Random fun fact: Savanna Village is the only Village variant that doesn't have a Furnace in any of it's buildings.

    Super random snapshot commentary, but I find the back and forth tweaks made to Hoglins kinda shows that whoever is in charge isn't confident enough to hold their stance on the changes they're making.
    To me it's kinda obvious: Even in Peaceful, players should have access to Hoglins for the Two by Two advancement. One can just block Hoglins from entering Portals, or make the Zoglin peaceful as well.

    Also: TNT Sulfur Cubes is gonna be so fun to mess around with ...

    So I recently figured out how to make a custom IP for my Betatesting Server!
    If you want to try it yourself to see if it works, here's the IP:    betatest.thediamondplayables.com(As I said a few posts ago, it's currently Whitelisted, let me know on Discord if you want to join)
    Sul4ur HOWW???!!! TELL ME

    You may have already known this, but early game Spear is pretty meh, until you remember that Phantoms really like charging at you. Just stand there, hold a Spear and let Phantoms charge into their deaths. Alot easier than perfect hitting them with Swords/Axes.
    (It's early game/pre-Nether, you'd not get that many arrows to shoot them with yet)

    The pains of moving everything to my own site: The process it takes to let Google itself know that all my files are safe to download.

    I need your help. If you're downloading my projects from official sources, I'm about to do something that'll make your work alot easier: Moving it all to my very own website!

    Problem is, like everything new on the Internet, it has the chance of being flagged by diferent browsers because "stranger danger". So try downloading the latest available version of one of my packs (Infinite Trades) via this link, and let me know what you find!

    PS: Yes, this also works with all my other releases as well ...

    It seems like ender chest sounds are now 70% as loud as they were prior to 1.26.
    Do you need to know this? Probably not. I put weird things here sometimes.

    26.1's official changelog contained something that wasn't there when I merged all the changelogs leading up to this game release, and now I have to go through that changelog just to see if I'd missed anything. Maintenance is fun!

    1.26x releases coming soon! They released the update 2 weeks earlier than my initial predictions back when the first prereleases started coming out, so I didn't have as much time to get Scripter's Libraries ready in time for the update. I'm not rushing this process though - coding is kinda like cooking in the way that if you rush the process the food's not gonna taste as good, and I'd rather be late than deliver something I know I could do better at.

    Also, if you're able to, I could use some help keeping the lights on around here.
    I've got a lot of bills to pay and this site doesn't really give creators anything from its ad revenue, so I've had to get money from many different places to keep all this going.
    Which just means I don't have as much free time to work on this as I would've wanted to, even if I try my best to use the little time I had to the fullest.

    All that said though, thank you for being with me for so long, and more updates soon!
    PS: I do have my projects on Modrinth which does share its ad revenue to creators, but ad revenue in general is just not sustainable on it's own, so it's just another place you can find my stuff in.

    The righteous path is never easy. I mean, it pays less, most people just take it for granted, and you'll often be taken advantage of if you're not careful.
    I've tried my best to deliver the best projects I can for over 7 years now, and it's just my experience having done so for this long. But I'll keep doing it until the end, whenever that is.
    Why? I believe that if enough people take this path, the world will eventually be better. Kindness spreads just like malice does, it's just that there's more malice currently.
    I'm not putting this out to ask for any change, as always, feel free to do what you want in life. I'm just doing this to share how it feels having done something like this for so long.

    That being said, 1.26 is coming out later today (for me anyways), and my projects will follow suit. They will be behind by a day or two mainly because Mojang planned to launch 1.26 2 weeks earlier than my predictions when the prereleases started rolling in.
    But all the tools I need to maintain my projects I've already made, so 1-2 days is basically the longest it'll ever be. See you soon!

    MC Dungeons 2 huh? Time to wait for MC Dungeons to be on a huge sale ...
    Not really a fan of spinoff games, especially sequels of spinoff games, but I might be interested in it if they're on sale pretty hard.

    I'm calling it now, they're aiming for next Tuesday as the release date.
    Real date will be published once MC Not Live comes out, which will be at midnight for me, so I'll update this post later if the actual dates are not that.

    EDIT: That is exactly the case, March 24th. My packs will be updated to that version of the game pretty soon!
