Alongside v20c1 developments, the upcoming Project 521, I also need some extra help with something.
The Tropical Fish Head in Decapitation isn't that accurate compared to the Tropical Fishes you've been seeing since 1.13. I want to change this, but MinecraftHeads don't really have a database of 3072 Tropical Fish Heads I can add to the game. (they've recently also allowed so many ads running, kinda gives me the Fandom vibes which I don't like)

Anyway, I need your help. I need the skin textures for these 12 Tropical Fish variants.

If your design is accepted, you'll be credited as the Tropical Fish Heads contributor,
with a link to your profile in the pack's External Credits file.

There are some criterias I'd need these heads to be in though:
- These needs to be player skins so I can add them to Decapitation. (you only need to texture the head)
- These also needs to be grayscaled - I'll add the colors in later to generate the 3072 variants I'd need for the tool.
- There should be a stark lighting contrast between the base and pattern colors so the tool can pick up the differences and add the colors programatically.
If you got a good design, you can send them via PMC Messages, the comments, or on Discord if you so choose. Also, if you can't do these, share the message to anyone who can.
That would help me a lot. See you soon!

This is simply not true. Working with the admins to fix this yet again across all my releases.
More updates soon!

No worries, I made a lot of messups that I've hidden when I code stuff too. Could be at least a thousand had I counted it all up.
Also, If you've found anything interesting about these submissions do let me know.
I think I may still have some posts using /posts instead of /file back in the earlier days of me messing around with Patreon's infinite file hosting offer. They should all be free by now, but if I'd missed something your systems may have spotted, then do let me know.

Cyprezz said 2023-12-03 07:03:44

Fixed but all I did was rescan your submissions with the existing rules. Not sure yet, why they went back to being flagged as monetized considering the same rules I just ran... are responsible for it. Will figure it out. Sorry!

It's December so I got a weird snow problem for ya'll.

Using Silk Touch, it's possible to get the snow layers back from digging up snow layers.
If you stack up 8 snow layers, and Silk Touch that, you'll get a full snow block.
Since digging up snow layers normally gets you a snowball, this means that a snow block is made of 8 snowballs.

Wait a minute, how many snowballs does it take to craft a Snow Block again?
And how many snow layers do you make if you craft it up using Snow Blocks?

A fun fact while you wait for the next project to be released:
Sawblade's Partial Cutback rule does consider the multiple ways an item can be obtained.
This is why Quartz Blocks can never be cut back into Quartz, as Masons (for some reason) also offer this block.

This is just one example of the cases I had to consider for this rule though.

Throwing a random question out there today: Would anyone join a whitelisted survival server in Vanilla Minecraft (datapacks and No Chat Reports) in late 2023?

Probably wouldn't be super active on it, but it does sound relaxing and fun :D

I don't know if this applies to anyone who does code, but whenever I do stuff and I know that how I did it before isn't optimized, I really want to optimize it all to make the best stuff possible.
Mainly because I'd feel bad using a project knowing full well that it isn't as optimized as it should be. Most of the time I do, which is good for the final project, but it takes a lot more time overall to make it happen.

I still need more help with block texture designs for the upcoming project (the one that I was stress testing below). If your design makes it into the final build, you'll get that project in Early Access for a month mainly because of how big in scale this project is.
If you're interested in all this, send me a message on Discord and I'll get you started!

This is what a stress test that went too far gets you. There's a lot of stuff hidden behind the scenes with my datapacks I'd love to share, but most of them are just too boring to see.
This is a bit less boring than all the code design and infastructure behind the stuff I'm making currently though. (PS: Now I need to design a case to prevent members in servers from causing this to happen to server owners.)

Update to the situation: The money icon in the downloads section is gone (thank goodness), but it's still visible in the Collections tab. Nevermind, all good now!

Boy did I not imagine waking up this morning to be horrified by the sheer amount of links I may have to change because of what would otherwise be a nice and simple site update. I've counted at least 300 links across the last two years of making my stuff I'd have to change otherwise, and many more in the near future as 1.20.3 is coming.

Thanks Paril and Cyprezz for a: having started PMC, b: having kept PMC up and going for all these years, and c: having listened to the people who use the service.

If you want to know more about the events I'm refering to, you can read more about that here.
Also, go ahead and show the post some love - asides from the side-effects of the update's execution on me personally, the reason behind it is pretty neat.

oh, that's caching. I'll force clear it in a few.

TheDiamondPlayables replied to Cyprezz's comment below 2023-11-10 13:10:36

Sorry to bother you again with this, but the issue still exists in posts that are in public Collections.
Thanks again for everything you've done!

Cyprezz said 2023-11-10 11:08:58

You're all set! Sorry for the stress of thinking about making so many manual changes. If you do decide in the future to monetize any of your content, please reach out so that I can make further adjustments.

Paril Are you sure my downloads fall into the "Monetized Download" category?
I use Patreon as the hosting service, sure, but if you have tried my downloads before, you'll know that they are actually free, so can there be an exception for my case?

For this case I simply can't let it stand - I let it slid before when Patreon links are highlighted but I can counter that by clearly stating a massive FREE DOWNLOAD by the button. But this? It's in the title, and there's nothing I can do about it.

To add insult to injury, there's also a money icon in the download button that's been clearly stated before that it's a FREE DOWNLOAD, and the link itself is also working against me.

I really hope I don't have to change all the download links I've made for the last two years on the site just because of this change. That's a lot of links to edit, a lot of time to find a new file hoster, and to trust it that it's rules won't change on me as time goes on. Not to mention that I need to know for sure that PMC doesn't flag those as Monetized links too.
(Also, I'm not using the site's base file hosting service - it always changes my filenames)
