Minecraft Forums

This is my first post, and I'm not really a Minecraft player anymore (I used to play the computer beta, and haven't had the Pocket Edition for more than 24 hours), so hopefully the following post is considered useful- based on the info I gained from browsing these forums, it looks like it might be, I hold high hopes

Anyways, to get right to it: This is a modification of a few of Minecraft - Pocket Edition's functions (particularly those responsible for handling touch events) that allows for an auto-mine-like functionality; that is, when three fingers are touched to the screen, the touches (including those being used to move the player and to mine) are preserved.

So, if a player walks forward while mining (in such a way that a straight tunnel would be formed), and then touches a third finger to the screen, the player will keep moving forward and mining, even after the fingers are removed from the screen. This can be used to clear out large areas (particularly underground, when searching for precious materials) without the player having to sit there with two fingers glued to their device.

You can take a look for yourself here (the mod is first visible at around 3:10)-
(Sorry that I had to use a camera instead of a screen recorder; wanted to show how the touches came into play!)

As far as mods go, I don't think this is particularly useful (although again, I don't play much; that's great if a person or two here thinks it's good!). However, it's evidence that it's possible to get code-based mods (as opposed to texture or hex edits) into the Pocket Edition- if this seems promising, I'll work on releasing some code-based mods, along with a technical tutorial on how to create them for yourself.

If you want to try this mod out for yourself, add the following Cydia repository (yes, a jailbreak is very much required!)-

I haven't tested this for more than a few minutes, remember that it's more of a proof-of-concept than anything else!

Did you Make it? And A good Way to Enter the Forums.

Edit: (Btw I have no clue what it says/means on the OP Im too lazy, but it says mod and a video)

That's awesome.

I'm guessing this uses the method c0deh4cker uses where you write to memory using a tweak in the background. c0deh4cker already added a button to the game screen that when clicked activates X-Ray mod, using a tweak he developed to write to RAM. Maybe you are c0deh4cker in disguise

WAIIIT. He added a button to the game? Hoooow! That is awesome. Maybe if someone made a sneak mod, added a button to the game screen... Profit right there.

Didn't hear about that, but it sounds like he and I both used a form of MobileSubstrate hooking, the basis of most jailbreak-related tweaks- if you have a link to his work I'd be able to tell you for sure. But no, I am not him

He hasn't released much of his other code-based mods, but he has released his in-game IP changer from options panel using the same method as his other mods.

Added a download link, see for yourself (if you're jailbroken)

Aces, I guess we're stacking up on modders for PE very fast. And yes, great way to enter the forums

Wow this is amazing, an actual MOD.

This is great! +1.

Why, just why cant this be on android D:. With all the mining i do, it would help.

Awesome!!! Excellent!

Just tried it. Mother of god.
