    The E3

    I see it differently... If Microsoft removed microtransactions then why should Apple/Google keep Minecraft in their stores anyway? Considering that both Apple and Google rely heavily on inserting adds into their "Free" content, that is. I can't imagine playing Minecraft with Random Commercial...

    The E3

    Most of the microtransaction stuff is aimed, you'll notice, at the Console/Phone/Tablet market and just happens to hit MCWin10 because they're all based on the same code. Even if Microsoft removed the cost for unneeded DLC on Win10/Xbox the other game stores would keep charging for it. Not...

    The E3

    The ultimate use of Minecraft according to Microsoft is to generate interest among kids in software development, preferably using the free Visual studio IDE. If they become professional and keep using Visual Studio so much the better.

    Both the seared tank and seared oven need tops, but they can be made with seared glass if desired. I just finished a large tank in my DW20 world that I'm experimenting with for a Canola oil plant since it can contain multiple fluids... I just need to design a circulating system with filtered...

    6 July: Mojang twitted that 4 positions are available... At least 1 of them is to help develop the C# API for the C++ codebase versions.

    If I don't want "Sweep damage" I switch to an axe... No sweep and a bit more damage per hit.

    Small question about Sky Factory 3.

    Keep in mind that the mods in Sky Factory style packs are usually heavily re-configured over the default configs.

    The way it's supposed to work: Any pack labelled "Release" is the 'official' most stable version of the pack until (and if) it's replaced by a beta version. For example, the Release might be version 1.0.0 (as most first versions will be) and the might get through to beta 1.0.5 before they are...

    The E3

    What I'm looking forward to is a future where modders generate packs using C# which are then compiled to the appropriate "binaries" at runtime depending on which the MC Version. Because of it's fully compiled nature (no psuedocode) Win10 MC seems to run more efficiently than Java MC does on my...

    The E3

    Not only will the Win10, Console and tablet/phone versions be C++, but they always have been. :D In addition, last year at Minecon, Mojang demoed a new setup where Mob behaviors were configured using Json files (already in the C++ version) and said plans were in place to implement an...

    Is there way to use optifine on unmodded realms server?

    Does realms even work with Java MC? I've not used it but it's been available for the C++ versions (MCPE, Win10) since it started and I really doubt you'd have any luck using Optifine with them...

    As to getting red orchids, in the packs I play (Beyond, DW20) you can rarely get them by breaking grass and/or they drop when you mine redstone. [Edit:] Forget getting the red orchids when mining redstone. I was thinking about the empowered crystals (from XU2 I think?) at the time.

    First, you have to "unlock" the pack. Do this by right-clicking on the downloaded pack's icon, anywhere except the "Play" button. Click the "View Profile" selection on the menu. This will bring you to a page showing individual mods in the pack. Click the "Ellipses" [...] button in the upper...
