this never happens to me...

Happens all the time on pc in jungles.

Quote from Homestuckersplayminecraft

Wolves will be useful because when you have one they will help you kill endermen if added,and if they add in endermen this is a good strategy to hide your stuff put it underground make sure to keep an extra bone for wolves!

I am not quite following how this went from redstone to wolves, endermen, and hiding underground.

No, this is not another "WE WANT SIGNS!" Topic of some senseless child's posting. This is a legitimate topic.

While I was attempting coding on MCPE (I'm attempting, but C++ is a whole new language for me), I found the Sign.PNG. Now, I still haven't found any coding for the signs itself, but if found, would we be able to somehow 'enable' the signs for ios? Because, if I'm not mistaken, Johan said the keyboard problem related to Android users.

And to the beggars, there's your proof that they are trying to fulfill your wishes.

Also, I found many other incomplete files, such as Redstone PNGs. (I haven't found any coding for it, either.)

We've already gotten signs into our games, and learned how to write on them.

So i was searching in the amazon app store when i saw the demo of Minecraft PE and i check and it's on 0.2.1 so I thought about how demo users look at 0.5.0 videos and saying "I wish i had the full version" amd now I feel guilty for me having Minecraft PE and others have the demo. Is there a way to make the demo version better by one more update or having every block cause I want demo users to have an equal amount of fun as we do. Hopefully something like this will happen to the demo.

No

Semi new app? This app is ollllllddddd D:

He said in livestream that next update (the one after 0.5.0) will be smaller, he will probably look at armor and stuff, but can't promise anything.

Actually he said armor and online multiplayer

I always thought it would just have a small GUI, so if you put in torches it "netherizes" a torch into glows tone dust, and then you can craft glowstone. Or put in some dirt and get netherack, and put in rotten flesh (if he adds it" or a bone and it spawns a zombie pigman.

This is pocket edition

I always wonder how people get there forum sections mixed up

They just go to the recent section and don't pay attention where they end up.

I don't like these ideas (just my feedback) I like the way we get seeds now, just like the pc version did, it gives me a nostalgic feeling.

Jailbreak required!
Add the repo http://s1ris.com/mcpe/ to your cydia sources for mods.

Are you tired of MCPE's boring old maps with little difference to each one? Want something radically new and amazing? That's why I'm working on MCPEGen, a custom map generator for MCPE. MCPE uses a bad and boring Perlin noise generator that is hardly CPU efficient and barely considered cool, MCPEGen uses a Simplex Noise generator and creates amazing maps every time with high CPU efficiency!

What it does do:

• Generate maps independently
• Generate caves
• Generates oceans
• Added ores
• Generates 4 types of terrains (hollow mountain, cliffs, floating rock, abstract universe)
• Allows for different seeds to generate the same/different terrains
• Saves maps to pocket edition format

What it doesn't do:

• Use any other program to generate the map

So far, the map saves the blocks right, but the dirty columns are messed up somehow. I have to use MCedit to view the maps really, since MCPE doesn't like the dirty columns at all.

The program:


Generator Type: the type of generator
Generator Options: options for the generator type selected (will add more in the future)
Options: extra's to add
Generate: button to start generating the file

Land: generate land, if disabled, the generator you selected won't generate land
Seed: the seed of the world, MUST BE A NUMBER

Oceans: add oceans to the world
Sea level: the height of the water from the void
Floor level: the height of the floor from the void

Grass: add grass and dirt to the world
Grass Height: how tall each stack of grass and dirt is

Ores: add ores to the map

Caves: add caves to the map
Lava Level: how high from the void lava should generate in caves
Threshold: how wide the caves are in a decimal number, the larger the decimal the wider the caves
Frequency: how frequent the caves are, can have a decimal

Bedrock: add bedrock to the bottom of the map
Bedrock Level: how high the bedrock should be from the void

IN ORDER FOR THE PROGRAM TO WORK, CHANGE THE GROUP AND OWNER OF THE FILE TO MOBILE USING IFILE OR ANY OTHER PROGRAM!!!

Screenshots:

Abstract Universe (~16 seconds to save and generate)*:


Floating Rock (~47 seconds to save and generate)*:
Used MCedit to fix lighting


Cliffs (~47 seconds to save and generate)*:


*using a 5gb ram, 2.33ghz computer, ran generator while CPU was 86% in use (look at my taskbar in the screenshots). Speed results will vary.

To do:

• Fix lighting algorithm
• Fix saves
• Add trees
• Add biomes

Might not seem like it does a lot right now, but to be able to create and save MCPE maps from scratch is amazing in the programming world.

After rooting and flashing a custom rom on the Motorola ACTV, I just downloaded Minecraft PE of the google play store LOL. Ill post a picture pretty soon showing how small it is.

EDIT: I thought it would be better for a video, cause the quality with the pictures wasn't looking very good.



While your at it, why don't you press that subscribe button? =D

So, you all know the famed MCedit, right? I'm working on a 3D world viewer/editor that is similar to MCedit, but with a different twists: you can play the world on your computer as if you were playing it in creative mode in MCPE. Now you might ask, why do I need a world editor? Well, have you ever found a project so large you didn't think you'd be able to build it or wanted to build it fast? Ever want to import 3D models into your world? Ever want to import other peoples creations into your world? Or maybe you just want to play MCPE worlds on your computer. Those are just a few of the features I plan to add to this project.

I have so far done the simple tasks such as getting the 3D down, setting up user controls (camera, walking and flying) and opening the chunks.dat into a 3D world. I need to finish texturing (that really is a hard task) and need to remake every block within MCPE in this program. While programming every block sounds like it'd take awhile, just a matter of copy, paste and edit and should go by quickly.

This whole project is written in Java so its multi-platform and uses OpenGL from LWJGL to render in 3D. LWJGL is what PC Minecraft uses for its 3D needs.

One last thing, I am still working on every project I was doing before hand, just now I have more free time. MCPEServer is now being worked on, and even that new and updated MCPEedit I promised.

Download (this version is still in development, it is not yet a full blown editor but rather a 3D world viewer, working to change that)

There is one item that The Reactor doesn't drop and cannot be produced to make more if you have some already (like cacti and sugar cane)

That item is Clay

I have used The Reactor more than ten times so far and never seen it drop clay. I looked around my world and found a little vein by water and made a stack of bricks. Some other worlds I have created didn't have any clay. Either Johan forgot about this or he has his reasons. What do you think?

No.

Tired of typing seeds over and over hoping they'll be good? Want a method that will let you find better seeds in less time? That is what Seed Theory is for.

Seed Theory is not guessing random numbers, is not hoping for good seeds, and is a just a theory that is based on an actual theory of finding similar seeds in Noise algorithms (it's also not actually even called seed theory ). Because it is a theory, I don't guarantee good results every time, just most the time. It is also important to keep in mind that biomes, trees, lavafalls and waterfalls will not be the same as the original seed. All of those are handled after noise generation, while this affects noise generation itself.

One important rule to seed theory is all seeds must be numerical values. If you type in a seed using letters and symbols, they get processed through what's called a "hash encoder" to convert it to a number and then used as a seed. The numerical value for the seed nyan will be much different than the numerical value for the seed myan, even though there was only one letter changed. So only use numerical values for this theory to work, otherwise results will vary.

Anyway, let me get to showing you how it works. The first step is to have a good seed you want to mimic, such as nyan or theedlerscrolls and maybe jocopa3. Pick one and make a new world using it.

I chose my own seed jocopa3

So, now that I have that, I'm going to find out the numerical by using iMCPEdit or any other program that can tell me the seed.

As it turns out, the numerical value is -1436175791, so what I'm going to do is split it into groups of 3 or 4 numbers each. It doesn't matter to much on how you split it up as long as you do not change the order the numbers are in. So I'm going to split it up into -1436, 175, and 791. This splitting of the seed is called the first degree of similarity, it promotes some similarity to the original seed, but not entirely.

Now, in the actual seed theory, a computerized program would split the seed in every possible way and try each one of those seeds and check to which one is the most similar to the original. For us, we will only try those three seeds and see which one we like most.

First I try -1436 and find some interesting overhangs and a cave.

Second I try 175 and find large mountains and cliffs in one side of the map, oceans and flat lands on the other.

Third I try 791 and found some weird strange shapes, flat areas and mountains.

At this point, you can either stick with the seeds you found or continue on to a second degree. The second degree of similarity involves combining the seed groups from the first degree that best fit the original seed, so for us that would give a total of 6 combinations. -1436175, 1751436, -1436791, 7911436, 175791, and 791175. You can either try all of those, or pick a few you want to see.

Keep this in mind when combining seed groups, -1436+175 = -1436175, but 175+-1436 = 1751436, not -1751436 (basically, if the negative number comes second, remove the minus sign).

Here is a good seed: 175791

Another cool seed I found from this: 1751436

I tried this theory on the seed nyan (numerical: 3396408) and got a cool seed 39 which has plenty of lavafalls, waterfalls and mountains for you to enjoy, just like the actual nyan seed.

A Partial Explanation:
It is a near fact that the shorter the seed the better chance of it being radical. Since this splits seeds up into smaller groups, there is a chance it will be good since small seeds are more radical. I don't really know the mathematics behind this though, since I don't know the exact noise generation algorithm used, but if I did, I could tell you the best seeds possible. Knowings its a 3D perlin noise algorithm, I can hopefully find something similar.
