Snapshot recap:
- Wait, you can make a Vault display diamonds and it gives you dirt instead?
- RIP Speed 255.
- Datapacks are broken once again. Good thing I don't do stuff for snapshots!

I just realized something ... Google Search Pages is no more. It's now an endless scroll.
Add that one to the list of things killed by Google.

Big oof, Google. Page 5 isn't used often doesn't mean it's not used at all.
Things like this happening is why I'm always wary of edge cases in my builds.
And it's partially the reason why 521 takes so long currently lol

Dermugettum said 2024-01-23 17:27:20

Not only that, it repeats the search results you get. It's a loop scroll. In my paid job I look up merchants and companies that my own employers can help out. How am I supposed to get more results if Google keeps giving me the same ones over and over?

Silabear said 2024-01-22 11:46:27

no but endless scroll is much better

Goodbye Internet. Just kidding, I'm still around.
Here's hoping I can stick around for a few more years (I still got way too many ideas I wanted to explore and bring to life), but life is hard, so only time will tell.

I was thinking the same thing. So many huge figures leaving.

521 is a lot more complicated than I'd originally imagined it to be.
This is the first one that uses a lot of custom texture elements (still no resource packs lol), and so I'm having to do a lot of texturing shenanigans in addition to making the thing possible in the first place.

Hopefully in the next few days I'll be able to finally show you what I've been cooking up.
It's a big one for me, and I've learned a lot out of the experience. I also made more tools for it that I can also use for my existing projects too, so that's a nice bonus. See you soon!

Me when I realized PMC's New Year fireworks still shout 2023: #blameparil
(Paril might not be responsible for it, but I still find it funny to use lol)

Tip if you're using my releases and 20c1 isn't working on 1.20.2:
The letter matters. a is .1, b is .2, c is .3, and so on. "-" means base, so 20-x works for 1.20.
Letter isn't moved up if the dot release didn't change existing features much.
1.20.4 still uses 20cx because of that, same for why 20-x are designed for 1.20-1.20.2.

If you need an older release of my projects, I keep every releases I've ever hosted on Patreon (it's free) since PMC doesn't have an older releases option (I won't move there if they have one now though, since the system's already been set).

I haven't updated the Older Releases table for all my releases to keep you up-to-date with this system yet - it's a recent change to adapt to Mojang's changes to how they're approaching dot updates. I'll do all that in the future once the upcoming Project 521's complete.

I think you should give this a read.
Gives you a pretty good insight as to why vanilla mechanics are made the way they are made.

So I learned VBA to automate some Excel files for one of my datapacks. It looks a lot nicer now and has no errors caused by me messing up when I added them all manually from before, which is nice. (we don't talk about the Black Sheep Head, lads)
Also, I can reliably add the 3072 Tropical Fish Heads I'd promised I'd add in a future update in the Excel file automatically now, and be confident that there would be no inconsistencies in the head icons.
This is just me trying to make sure I get the best stuff out there once it's finally out. If you like what I've made, I could really use the support if you can on Patreon. Thanks!

There are 372 blocks in game that doesn't have any blockstates.

Native English speaker is far from 100% effective in ensuring proper usage of these.

This pallette vs pallet vs palate might help…
Alternatly a mnemonic [memory aid]:
► pallETTE is a French spelling thus relates to art 🙄
► paLLet has two "L's" (like the tines of a forklift)
► paLate has one "L" (like a tongue)

I feel like this might become a routine at this point, but Cyprezz, my releases are marked as Monetized Download again. Sorry for the troubles it might cause you in this holiday season!

Cyprezz replied to TheDiamondPlayables's comment below 2023-12-19 10:34:06

I determined why it happened and patched yesterday. A moderator added a variation of a pateron.com url to our monetized filter list. This runs code that retroactively applies the new entry to past submissions. That retroactive script wasn't honoring the exceptions. I fixed and so it shouldn't happen again.

TheDiamondPlayables replied to Cyprezz's comment below 2023-12-17 20:23:49

I wonder why it keeps on happening sometimes. It's secret site code though, I get that I won't get to know about it.

Cyprezz said 2023-12-17 20:15:41

Sigh, should be good again.

I was surprised by this: Appearantly Mojang pulled the plug on Dungeons just 3 years after its release. Yeah, they actually did that. Read the source - it's at the end of this official post.

Wait, I've been making content for 3 years already?
Time flies when you're having fun huh?
