    Crud-- I just realized this is in the Java Edition section. Mods, please move this to the appropriate section (if you're even active, it feels like Magic Find haven't posted anything since before the dinosaurs went extinct, like jeez)

    posted a message on Minecraft Earth was basically foreshadowed in 2012

    Also available on Reddit (opens in new tab)


    Hey everyone! I found something really, really interesting today.


    So, I'm sure you've definitely heard, or have even played, Minecraft Earth. If you've been living under a rock, feel free to ask in the comments. I won't explain it here, since 99% of you know what it is.

    Before I get in to what this is though, I need to do a bit of a backstory.


    So, starting in 2010, all the way up to 2016, the launcher looked something like this:


    Minecraft Launcher from 2010-2016.


    I even remember using this launcher all the time. I'm sure plenty of you do too.


    Now, you may notice that on the launcher, the main screen of the launcher claims to be "powered by Tumblr". That's entirely true, as that screen is actually showing you a website, mcupdate.tumblr.com. It's not updated anymore, but it's still a neat little relic of the past.


    So, what's so special about this? Well, on page 5 (here), a certain post appears that kind of sounds like Minecraft Earth, in a way (find it here):

    Minecraft Reality Now Available for iOS
    Apple fans! We've recently released Minecraft Reality for iOS. It lets you view your Minecraft creations in the real word thanks to 13th Lab's spooky augmented reality technology.

    For more info, visit http://minecraftreality.com, or search for Minecraft Reality on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch.

    Have fun!

    The link has since been taken down and leads to a 500 Internal Server Error, but you can find the latest working version here.

    There's also an official Mojang post (find it here):



    Imagine being able to dump your Minecraft creations into the real world for other people to find. You could put an exploding creeper in your school, a cheeky pig in your garden, or a giant enemy crab on the beach, if you like. The Minecraft Reality app for iOS lets you do just that.

    It’s been developed for iOS devices by 13th Lab - a bunch of clever augmented reality folks - with the help of Mojang. The app uses your iOS device’s camera to track the surroundings, before projecting creations onto the landscape. You get to view the mind-boggling results on-screen. You can change the size of your object as you please, and even wander around it to view from different angles. It’s seriously impressive stuff that’s almost guaranteed to make people go “ooooo” and “ahhhhh.”

    Here’s an example of the wonder-tech in action.

    A picture of the YouTube video player that shows the

    Thanks to super-clever GPS technology, you’ll be able to plant your creations in specific places in the world for other people to find. They can then boot up the app and view your builds in all their glory. The app also comes with a few pre-loaded models to get you started. Minecraft Reality is available to download now. It costs $1.99.



    Please be careful when crossing the road, or operating heavy machinery when using this thing. Accidents are not the Mojang way. For more on Minecraft Reality, visit 13th Lab’s official site.

    The game was originally available here, but it doesn't seem to work anymore.

    Looking into it, the team who made Minecraft Reality, who are known as 13th Lab, joined Facebook to work on Oculus. Later, they decided to work on Oculus full-time, and were unable to keep their domains and games running, including Minecraft Reality. If you visit attempt to visit 13th Lab's website today, you'll be greeted by a Chinese website that is apparently related to lottery.

    So, what do you think? Leave your thoughts below, I'd be glad to hear them!

    Quote from SuntannedDuck2»

    Have you tried playing in singleplayer to see if those mods work?


    Otherwise while I don't know much about Minecraft in China and NetEase as a company that much and what goes on with Minecraft stuff on your forums for mods, adventure maps, texture packs and otherwise either that are put on there that came from over here on sites like the Minecraft Forums (and other sources) or maybe those that created their own content for other Chinese players to enjoy, but what really is going on? Your posts seem like a collection of things really and it's not really easy to understand.


    I’m not from China, JSYK. I honestly understand none of the custom mod culture: In fact, they have a special mods store and you can only get mods there. They also constantly removing mods you add yourself, or even resource packs, so it’s kind of hard to experiment with their launcher.


    For this post, I looked into how the Java mods work in an attempt to get it running, or even connecting the two launchers together so they can play.


    For my other posts, I:

    - Made some since defunct modpacks

    - Commented on a discontinued resource pack

    - Made a bunch of cringeworthy posts and some more

    - More terrible posts

    - My profile is just a mess

    posted a message on Learning how Minecraft works in China (Minecraft: My World)

    This is going to be a long post. Just an FYI.


    So, I returned to Hypixel a few weeks ago and have really enjoyed it. A few days ago, I discovered Hypixel was available on Minecraft My World, which is China's official Minecraft, and decided to get it. After a lot of work (and I mean a lot), I finally got My World to let me into my new account and I played some of their Hypixel. It's honestly not bad, and I think I'll play it a bit more so my rank can match on both servers.

    While I was playing, I decided to hop on YouTube and see what I could find related to this My World client. I found a review by Howard Zheng (or Hedwig Zheng), and noticed he said this:

    Strike F3.
    "Powered by Forge 11.15.1.0"
    "Optifine 1.8.9 HD"
    "16 mods loaded, 16 mods active"



    And sure enough, I hopped on, hit F3, and saw:

    F3 menu, showing Forge Mod Loader being enabled in Minecraft My World (China

    Wait: The guy said 16 mods active, and in the video, he showed that was true, as well as the mods list.

    The video, showing the mods list and

    Now it's 18. So, I went to go look, and...

    Mods entirely renamed to hide the identity of them.

    Whaaaat?!

    So, I went ahead and thought about potentially loading up these mods in regular Minecraft, regular Forge, to see what would happen. And...


    The game crash.


    Argh! NetEase seems to have been clever and made their own version of Forge. And surprisingly, someone found out this was the case:


    GitHub page, showing the code that NetEase modified.


    But, let's look at that crash report.


    Aw, yeah! Some file names!


    As a note, that InputFix mod is on Curse, and was recognized by the Twitch app:

    The Twitch app, showing the InputFix mod being created by ZLainSama.


    Anyways, scrolling down in the report, we find this:


    Showing the mods, with their JAR name next to them.


    Yes! We found the JAR names!


    What are we ever gonna do with it though if the game doesn't even load? Well, I don't know right now.


    But, I have one final idea.


    NetEase's .minecraft has a versions folder. 1.8.9 is the only version in there.


    1.8.9 folder in versions folder.


    If we can somehow get 1.8.9 in the regular Minecraft Launcher, it could wor--



    Oh. Uh, maybe offli--



    ... Or not.


    So, yeah, NetEase thought before all of us. At the moment, we cannot play My World servers in Java Edition.


    I'll look into Bedrock, however it already seems unlikely since you can normally only join Bedrock worlds from the My World app.


    I'll put anything else anyone finds below. Take care.

    1) Talk to the people who made FastCraft about the issue. If they can't do anything about it, put it in the Forge forums.
    2) If you want more people to help you, please put in the crash report as a Pastebin, Hastebin, or an Ubuntu paste.

    No, you cannot play together. There are plugins on PocketMine that let you do this, but they are outdated and the updated ones are harder to download and install.

    You can't use Realm subscriptions. If you did, it wouldn't matter which one you got.
