Help/JavaEdition Crashing for no reason

Reinstalling is nearly always useless, simply because the cause of the crash likely exists in your game folder, which doesn't get affected with a reinstall.

So what version are you using? With that I'm referring to: Forge, LiteLoader, both or vanilla? I see you're using OptiFine, do you also use a resourcepack? If so start by disabling that.

Second....

• Open a file explorer and head over to %appdata%\.minecraft
• Go up one folder and rename .minecraft into something else: "minecraft.backup"
• Try to start it again (warning: you will eventually need to logon again).
If this method allows you to start Minecraft you can be assued that the cause of the crash is somewhere with your installation. Maybe consider to re-install OptiFine, move your screenshots and worlds ('saves') over and start from this?

Minecraft/DataPacks Is it possible to change tick rate with a datapack?

As a rule of thumb: datapacks can only do the same stuff which you can do in-game yourself using commands. And since there's no command which affects actual gameticks....

Also... you may need to use /reload after you loaded the world to make sure that the datapack is fully working.

Help/JavaEdition Minecraft World Corrupted

What exact error message do you get? Because if this is only about missing builds without any notable error messages then I can't help but think that the world isn't really corrupt but you may be using the wrong world(s)?

Missing would mean a gaping hole all the way down to bedrock (which also gets removed).

Help/JavaEdition Execute command

One or more block types? Because then it would make sense to set up a block tag and then check for that tag. As to running multiple commands: functions are your friend.

It's usually better not to include port numbers if you don't have to, esp. with LAN servers. If this is a regular LAN server then the command would work, but if they use 'share to lan' then a random port number is used which would render the above command useless.

The kill command would never work. Everything that gets dropped on the ground is of type Item (minecraft:item). Easily shown: just drop something on the ground and then use: /data get entity @e[type=minecraft:item,limit=1] and you'll get the data of that specific item you dropped (assuming there's nothing else on the floor ;)).

If you need a specific kind of item you'd need to use NBT tags to specify the item type.

Minecraft/Discussion Stackable Cakes datapack

He/Him • Level 61 : High Grandmaster Senpai

Datapacks aren't mods, they can only use the default Minecraft gaming mechanics.

So: if cakes can't be made stackable using regular commands then a datapack also won't be of any help.

Minecraft/Discussion Optifine Website is Down

He/Him • Level 61 : High Grandmaster Senpai

Well, it also seems to be down for me. Nothing anyone other than the webmaster can do about it unfortunately :(

actually....

I think this is because of a DNS error. When I check up on the domain I noticed that it has 2 addresses; one for IPv4 and one for IPv6 (which is the new standard). The weird part though is that it has double entries. Which I think is causing a serious delay.

Thing is... it took my browser 30 or so seconds but eventually it appeared.

(edit)

Nope, there is a problem with the website, I'll share a screenshot:



So best you can do is wait...

I suspect something is seriously amiss with your Windows environment. I mean... if Explorer crashes if you simply run a file as admin then something is not right(tm).

You may want to look into that issue first.

I still remember as if it was yesterday...

I bought Minecraft in December 2014, got myself 1.7.10 as recommended by my gf. One of the best games I ever bought, we're now 4+ years later and even though I did take a break earlier this year (which had its reasons) I never disliked or grew tired of Minecraft itself.

Minecraft, for me, is one of those games you'll always return to someday.

Are you using any mods by some chance? Those could affect things too.

But yeah, generally speaking you should encounter some hostiles. Assuming you don't skip the nights of course.

Help/JavaEdition The Minecraft Launcher Keeps on Crashing

He/Him • Level 61 : High Grandmaster Senpai

Fully agreed with ThatTonybo below. The easiest way to get the new launcher is by re-installing Minecraft. Just grab the installer from the official website and run it. You won't lose any data, but it'll replace the old launcher with the current one, then your problems should be over.

Minecraft/Discussion What's your favorite thing to build/make

He/Him • Level 61 : High Grandmaster Senpai

I enjoy building a combination of the above.

My problem is that I'm not very good at building 'nice' stuff, but I am pretty decent with building functional stuff. So I enjoy building stuff which is both functional and hopefully good looking. So basically I enjoy building waste bases; functional outposts from which I can do some solid mining and which can also serve as a house, and as is normal for me it'll be filled up with plenty of redstone items as well :)

Why not throw the idea out in the open to see if anyone is interested?

No offense but I have been playing this game for ... 5 or so years now and I came across plenty of "revolutionary" ideas which turned out a little lackluster in the end. And I'm sure that I'm not alone here.

Help/JavaEdition Coordinates not working with execute command?
ShelLuser
• 04/09/2019 10:16 pm
He/Him • Level 61 : High Grandmaster Senpai

Simple, it does this because you told it to. 'at' in the way you used it means "execute the following command while located at the following location". Note: not the entity needs to be located there, but the command is going to be executed from there.

What you're looking for is the 'as' option, like this:

/execute as @p[x=-160,z=68,distance=..1] run say m000

Example:



Here I asked Aya to stand on (/near) the block with the lime wool. As you can tell that was located around -160,56,60 (note that I didn't take the 'y' into account in my example). As such Aya will say 'm000' without her doing anything, that's all because of the command I used.

Hope this can help.

Help/JavaEdition minecraft won't load past the "mojang" screen. My game wont load, after i press play it doesnt load past the screen where it says mojang. started when i installed mods, so i removed them but it still wont work.

Reinstalling doesn't accomplish anything. See, the problem is that this would only remove the launcher, but it will leave the .minecraft data folder fully intact. So once you reinstalled you're basically right back where you left off.

Open a file browser, then go to %appdata%, you'll find a folder called .minecraft in there. Rename it into something else, for example: minecraft.bck.

Then try to restart your game.

Do note that this resets everything, so you also have to log into your Minecraft account again. If this works then you can simply move some stuff from your old Minecraft folder into the new. For example your screenshots and such.

I don't think the version should matter, but the amount of years that you actually played the game :)
