That actually sounds great! That way, it can technically happen in all modes. That way, no griefing for people who don't want this, and fishg and I get our epic fight!

If you can make wool with string why not make string with wool

That sounds correct in theory but like the last guy said, Mojang wants you to really earn that piece of string. Not by getting it from a passive mob.

That's lucky. I find one about every ten islands.

I guess some seeds are better than others. On my Realm, End City was only an island away. Nobody wanted to bridge because we were messing around and were daring each other to knock people off.

Quote from allyourbasesaregone»

I find they're not super uncommon. I find one within a kilometer anywhere I go.

Yeah, I can find a gateway back the the End Island about every 2-3 islands.

It's unnatural and unfitting.

It would be better if Villagers could be safely stored in mall and supermarket buildings in player worlds, so they didn't look like slaves, and slavery is not something we like to be reminded of, but unless they're in non loaded chunks or mushroom fields biomes, this doesn't work.

Yeah. Very few people actually go through the effort of building villager farms that look a little more homely. I copied DanTDM's villager farm building from his hardcore series in creative mode because I didn't feel like shepherding them in.

Well the word zombie means living dead, and started out as voodoo mythology IIRC.

Yes, but Hollywood spread the character around a whole lot and gave me nightmares for a week afterwards.

Quote from Agtrigormortis»

I can see why, of course more elytras and shulkers can spawn on more outer islands, but the further out you go the bigger the risk is.

Because you cannot make an End portal on the outer islands, getting back isn't going to be quick.

at some point the risk becomes too big for the reward because of that.

I just save the coordinates of the entry point somewhere and then explore. Either that or build huge cobblestone pillars to track my progress.

I thought it was funny.

First time I managed to use the "elephant in the room" joke ever.

Sad but true, guys

I always admire the really smart ideas people come up with in this game, seriously. I don't think I've ever defeated an end city 100% though.

I raided an End City in less than 30 minutes with 3-4 of my Realm friends. Other than that, I have never ventured to an End City in survival.

Hi everyone, this is just a post for me to document my first Minecraft world. No idea if anyone will find this interesting but I thought it may be fun to document it. This post will focus on my main base and some of the Beta area and in the future I may post other builds in the world.

I was introduced to Minecraft in 2011 when my brother was excited to show me a demo of a game that he described as a world made of blocks like lego, but at night zombies, skeletons and explosive camoflauged things try and kill you. I was really interested in the demo he showed me and immediately knew I wanted to try it so I purchased the game for him and I (it was about £5 to buy Minecraft back then).

I created my first world in Beta 1.6 (for ages I remembered it incorrectly as 1.5 but is definitely 1.6) and I really had no idea what I was doing. I saw my brother get some planks in the demo so I did the same, and tried to build a house. I must have been incredibly slow at doing so as I remember being killed by zombies and skeletons and decided to build elsewhere. I still have the ruins of this house on my world, and these would be the first blocks I ever placed in Minecraft:

Following this was my second house attempt, but this was again unsuccessful when creepers blew it up, and when I died without a bed I couldn't find the house again. The ruins are unfortunately no longer there as I used the resources for another project and later a giant tree was built over the ruins. I could still find the ruins of my first base attempt so I used that as a guide when journeying from spawn, and decided to cave into a mountain, secure a base, and then build a tower upward. This is what I did and it became my first successful base that I still use today. I unfortunately don't have many images of this time, but I built a castle tower, then decided that I could make it into a full castle. I asked my brother to make a copy of my world in creative (he is more technical than I am) so that I could experiment, and I have a picture of this creative test world that I sent to my girlfriend (we are married now) for her thoughts- here it is:

I pretty much used this design for my castle, not exactly but similar, in the original survival world. I named the base "Castle Pow" as my nickname is Pow. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures as back then I had no idea I would find the progress images interesting in the future or I'd even still play Minecraft a decade later. And following on from this, I played this world until the official Minecraft Release came out. Around this time, all the biomes changed and Castle Pow was now in a swamp and later was mountain/wooded mountain. I wasn't really a fan of the grass colour as I was used to the bright green grass round the castle, I did carry on playing but wasn't as keen on the biome changes. I played into 1.2, 1.3 and a bit beyond that but did gradually start to play it less.

I still played quite a bit of Minecraft in those years but pretty casually and I have one fairly long-running world where I took over a Woodland Mansion. I got into Minecraft quite a bit more around its resurgence in 2018 and 2019 and I did begin to wonder about my original world. EDIT: I should really credit DallasMed65 who was a massive inspiration to me and around 2018/2019, I loved seeing him play and develop his old Minecraft world. It really inspired me that he could keep a world that was years old running, and I did begin to wonder about my first world.

I thought at this stage it was lost to history as I had changed computer a few times. But one night I was looking through my laptop for some old MP3 files and stumbled across a folder called "Old Minecraft". I have no recollection of making this folder, but I went in and to my surprise, there was my original world

I booted it up and all the memories came flooding back. I decided to play the world again, and I started having a lot of fun with it. This might annoy some survival purists but I did move some structures from my other survival world so I could carry on where I left off on my other world. I didn't give myself items or cheat in creative, I just wanted some of my favourite builds ported over so I could make this world my permanent Minecraft home, so a couple were moved over. Looking back, I am not sure if I would have done this now- but to me it's part of the world's history at this point.

I was still not super keen on some of the biome changes caused by seed shifting in the Beta areas (when the world was created, biome data was processed "on the fly" and not stored in actual chunks like it is currently with Anvil format, so biomes were liable to change during any Minecraft updates- meaning what was previously forest could become desert, or swamp etc). I thought some biomes in the Beta areas were quite out-of-place following this. This is something that happens when playing a Alpha or Beta world in current version Minecraft. So after discussing with some friends and asking opinions on this forum, I decided to do use World Edit, and make all the Beta areas forest to be more like I remembered the world, with as seamless as possible transitions to the new terrain.

I did a sympathetic restoration of Castle Pow to bring it into the modern era. Inside the castle was a bit of a maze, so I kept some the same and updated the rest. I wanted it to be my main base, so I textured the castle a bit, but kept the "soul" the same, as in keeping the four-tower keep mostly original, just textured and some trap door shutters etc, and adding a house and kitchen area. Here's a picture of the castle from that 2019 era, pre forest biome. I had removed biome data with NBT Explorer to see if that improved things and I think this was 1.14 biome data which was mountain. As I say, eventually I decided to change it with world edit to Forest and I have kept it that way ever since:

I began to play the world more, and in the end, uploaded it as a server so I could play with my wife and brother who are also Minecraft fans. I built a village around Pow:

Finally I did want to extend the castle a bit without changing it much, so taking inspiration from Pyke from Game of Thrones I added some side towers, as well as a storage room underground beneath one of these towers (under the old keep is still a labyrinth of 2011-era mines, secret enterances and such).

Castle Pow now has a storage room, mini display of 2011 items and tools, a creeper farm, sugar cane areas, and a skeleton spawner XP farm. And that's about it for this post, I might do the Nether, End and other builds in this world in the future, thanks

This is my main Nether Hub. Unlike the overworld, the Nether, or at least the outside of my hub is a bit of a mess. I am not really sure of the age of the Nether in this world- a lot of it is pre Nether Update but I can't honestly remember when I first visited the Nether.

Inside is a sort of railway station with minecarts to various locations (rare biomes, bases etc). My wife and I worked on this "train station" hub together, it was a lot of work but fun and we're really happy with it. Before, it was a series of tunnels and got quite confusing.

As well as this I do have an ice road to various locations decorated with a mini-overworld to the side.

Also, in some of the Nether between portals I have more "overworld biome":

There's a few other interesting places, here is my Piglin trader I designed myself with pistons to push drops into the hoppers when required. I am sure there's much better designs but I find this quite fun. I was pretty lucky that when I was building this a piglin just wandered into the trade area and I was able to block him in.

Honestly, I don't think I will play that world ever again but if I do when the 1.17 update comes out, I will probably be replacing it with deepslate. Any future castle builds in 1.17 will most likely be built with deepslate. Everything about deepslate bricks is amazing, especially the texture and sound. Wouldn't you agree?

I agree, also what's awesome about deepslate is you can use these to make your castle look aged.

And if you're going with a dark enchanted castle look, mixing it with blackstone bricks to make it look like it has soot around the bottom for example, could introduce a great aesthetic if you had a lava moat below.

Or perhaps you could just go with a water moat, in which case moss around the bottom with deepslate bricks behind would work.

If playing in survival I'd suggest building these in a mushroom fields biome,

unless you play bedrock edition, in which case a tundra would work fine seeing as there are no Creepers

in these biomes in this edition of the game.

If you're lucky you may find a Skeleton spawner beneath a mushroom field biome,

and you could use bubble columns to force the Skeletons into the upper sections of the castle you build.

I personally like blackstone. It's one of my favorite things to build with.

Pewdiepie made his minecraft house with mostly blackstone. It used to be made out of dirt

Yup, ancient temple builds are exactly the reason why I want blackstone kept in the game.

Also they can be used to mimic the texture of asphalt on roads,

concrete is too smooth for that.

However blackstone bricks having a pure black texture makes sense, I believe this was the point the OP was trying to make.

The best idea to make this work would be make it so the player is the one summoning the raid. If they manage to beat it, they should get some sort of combat-oriented loot, but its also not mandatory to do it.

That way, builders dont have to deal with it at all, and the PvE'ers that want to try out their combat/defense skills can get some bonus for it.

Mojang has something of an amusing habit of doing elaborate April Fools day pranks- this year's was a little underwhelming, if only because of the combo of working on the Caves and Cliffs update, and setting really high standards for themselves last year. This is one idea I had more as a fun thought experiment than something to be taken seriously- an idea for the next April Fools day prank with a pretty open ended premise: An 'update' that adds a ridiculous amount of comical bugs to the game.

Now, just to be clear, this would only effect worlds made during the update. Mojang could release the April Fools day update under the guise of a small patch, and could then come out with a list of the 'bugfixes' the following day, apologizing for some... 'slight' oversights with the previous snapshot.
Again, this is really just for fun! If you have any horrible bug ideas of your own, please include them in the comments!

The idea is that the changelog would initially appear relatively normal, acting as a guide for players to explore some of the more bizarre changes. Similarly, the game would appear normal at first, but would increasingly become stranger and stranger as time went on.
I've presented some of the genuinely awful ideas I've had in the form of a changelog, with the description in normal text, and the actual implications in italics.

Minor tweaks to terrain generation. Fixed some issues with terrain generating properly. This may cause some slight issues with new worlds, but they shouldn't be especially noticeable. (The frequency of Ravines has been multiplied by ten. Terrain has a chance of generating in bizarre shapes- including giant creeper faces. Chunks have a chance of being missing entirely. Some biomes have a chance of generating with one or more types of blocks being replaced with a randomly selected block type. Random plateaus and chunk borders can generate, along with other examples of hopelessly broken terrain further from spawn.)

Slight changes to Loot Tables. Made some minor tweaks to make loot tables more balanced. (All loot tables are changed to randomly replace blocks generated inside with dirt, tools and armor with wooden/leather variants, and items with rotten flesh.)

Rebalancing towards Village Loot. Rebalanced village loot to be less overpowered early in the game. (Some village chests are replaced with trapped chests rigged with excessive amounts of TNT.)

Optimized Sound Effects System. Slightly improved sound effect capacity to make SFX more effective. May cause some slight issues, as the new system is still in its early stages! (As the game progresses, sound effects can be replaced with completely randomly selected sounds. All noteblock noises have been replaced with explosions. Creepers now make random animal noises before detonating, food eating noises are extremely prolonged, cats are constantly making noise, creeper noises can occur at random for no reason, all animal noises are mixed up- (Pigs make cow noises, cows make pig noises, etc.)

Minor improvements to Rabbit & Parrot AI. Players likely won't notice these changes, but the AI for these has been slightly tweaked to improve pathfinding. (All rabbits are now incredibly hostile to any living creatures, and spawn more frequently- their AI is replaced with the unused Killer Rabbit AI. Parrots now attempt to dive bomb players, dealing high knockback.)

Improved Narration/Subtitles. We've revisted the Subtitles system to be more accessible and more helpful. (Subtitles and narration now provide unhelpful advice, needlessly personal comments, questions as to your capabilities as a player, give false warnings, seem to find said false warnings amusing, and other unpleasantries.)

Fixed Beds not working in the Overworld. Fixed a small issue where beds were not functioning as intended in the Overworld. (Beds now explode in the Overworld when one attempts to use them.)

Tweaked Wandering Trader Trades. Readjusted wandering trader trades to be more balanced. (All wandering trader prices are tripled. Failure to purchase anything causes the trader and their llamas to attack you w/potions.)

Fixed Foodstuffs not behaving Properly. Fixed some minor bugs that caused food not to function properly- players can rest assured that foodstuffs will now work as intended. (All food items now quickly turn into rotten food if not consumed shortly after being crafted, and give random negative potion effects when eaten.)

Minor Tweaks to Stonecutter GUI. Added some small changes to make the Stonecutter interface more intuitive. (Literally any block can now be turned into slabs and stairs, resulting in some especially bizarre blocks available. Now, you can build that Dynamite house properly, just like you always wanted!)

Tweaked Critical Hit Chance. Fixed a rare issue where critical hits were not working as intended. (Attacks can randomly do a ridiculous amount of Knockback, light everything nearby on fire, summon lightning, etc.)

Minor Bugfixes for Mob Spawnrates. Did some minor balancing towards the mobspawning algorithm. This may cause some small issues, but should provide some much needed improvements. (Mob spawning no longer works properly, and becomes increasingly broken the longer the game goes on, with mobs spawning in the wrong biome or dimensions, in ridiculously large or strangely colored groups, etc. Think herds of rainbow sheep, fish out of water, ghasts in the Overworld, etc.)

Fixed Daylight cycle Bug. Removed a rare bug that would cause minor discrepancies in the Daylight Cycle. (Day and Night length are now determined at random, ranging from days less than two minutes to nights that go on for ages.

Fixed Skybox not generating correctly. Removed a rare bug that caused the Sky to briefly stop working. This may cause some slight issues while we work out how to get the sky working properly again, as we're not exactly sure what we did to it. It's probably fine. (The Sky now has a chance of randomly flashing the wrong colors, which increases over time.)

Fixed Minor GUI Bugs. Made some minor changes to the inventory UI. (Now this would be incredibly annoying. The Inventory now has some slight discrepancies- items can move places ever so slightly, can lose small amounts of a stack, you can occasionally obtain the wrong thing when picking up the item, stacks of blocks can randomly change to similarly colored blocks, and other annoying issues. Any object can now be used as fuel for furnaces/smelters/smokers, )

Fixed Issue where using the iron hoe would result in an Anti-Piracy measure that crashed the game and started deleting files on your computer. The name really says it all. (I mean, I'd be relieved if this bug was finally fixed.)

Reimplemented Correct Pathfinding for Squid. It turns out all that was needed to fixt eh Squid AI was adding back the original pathfinding. We're relatively sure this won't cause any issues, but as always, this is an experimental feature. (Squids are once again capable of flight. Because... why not?)

Slightly adjusted End Dragon Behavior. The End Dragon's AI has been slightly adjusted to work more smoothly. (The End Dragon now has ten times more health than usual, rains Endermites down on the player, shoots projectiles in all directions, and is generally ridiculously difficult.)

Slight Changes to Structure Generation. Made some minor changes to the structure generation system to prevent faulty generation. We're still adjusting this, so bear with us in the meantime! (Structures can now generate with random blocks, several structures can generate on top of each other, around each other, or in the same place, etc. These anomalies become more common further from spawn.)

Minor Changes to Weather Frequency. Weather frequency has been slightly tweaked to provide a more immersive gameplay element. (Weather now occurs more frequently, and can consist of Anvil Rain, intense snowstorms that cause huge accumulations of snow, and other bizarre events.)

Reintroduced Unused parts of Soundtrack. We've added some of the previously unimplemented pieces of the soundtrack! While many players may not know about these pieces, they were always intended to be a part of the game, but never actually added. We have had reports of some minor issues with consistency, but these issues should be fairly uncommon. (Music has become broken- the music discs have all been mixed up, and the soundtrack can randomly be interjected with opera music, bangoes, or kazoo solos.)

Reimplemented Locked Chests! This previously considered feature has been added back in this snapshot! Players can craft an iron key using an iron ingot and nugget, which can be used to lock chests or shulker boxes, preventing other players from accessing them! This feature is still in development, and we encourage you to try it out in order to protect your valuables! (Players can now craft an iron key that can be used to lock chests. However, doing so makes it completely impossible to unlock the chest, causing players to lose any items stored inside. In fact, the chests are almost incapable of being destroyed, and cannot be exploded, break any tools used on them, etc.)

Water Bucket Bugfix. Fixed a rare error that prevented water buckets from working properly. (Water buckets now have a small chance of producing lava when used. They can also be used to capture any mob whatsoever, including the Ender Dragon, Wither Skeleton, villagers, etc.)

Implemented Automatic Bug Removal System. We're experimenting with a new system in this snapshot to automatically remove dangerous bugs from the game- this is a relatively new idea, but the system has been tested extensively, and has proven to be incredibly effective at eliminating bugs. (Whenever the player gets near a bee, spider, silverfish, or other arthropod, the chat informs them that a Bug has been detected, and the arthropod explodes with the force of a charged creeper.)

Slight Mining Adjustments. Fixed some minor bugs relating to certain blocks not mining properly. (Bedrock can now be mined, but becomes unmineable when placed.)

Minor Improvements to Command Interface. We've added some slight changes to the command system to make using commands more intuitive. (The Command system is hopelessly broken, and commands cause random events to happen. A fill command somehow winds up generating a horde of multicolored creepers. A summoning command causes all nearby flowers to explode. The results of any commands would be generated utterly at random, with a variety of different and equally bizarre scenarios sure to infuriate command savvy players.)

Tweaks to Enchantment System Enchantments and Curses have been rebalanced to make the enchanting table slightly easier to use. (Some of the new enchantments added include an armor enchantment that causes nearby entities to detonate, 'Volatility;' an armor Enchantment that causes any block you touch to turn to dirt, 'Earthwalker;' a weapon enchantment 'Kindness' that heals hostile entities you attack; a 'Bane of Everything' Enchantment that causes all entities to become hostile towards you; a 'Laser' enchantment for the Bow that causes all arrows to become ridiculously overpowered projectiles that have insane knockback)
(Changes have also been made to all the other enchantments. Fire Aspect now sets everything you touch on fire, Featherfalling now makes you fall excruciatingly slowly, Aqua Affinity makes you suffocate out of water, Looting turns anything you touch or hold into golden variants, etc.)

Changes to Difficulty Settings The difficulty levels have been altered slightly to provide a more personalized game play experience- these changes are relatively minor, and shouldn't be readily apparent to players, but should provide some subtle improvements to different difficulty levels. (It is now literally impossible to die in peaceful/easy mode, with the game automatically saving you from various near death scenarios. All ore blocks have been replaced with solid mineral blocks, the player always spawns in a village directly above a stronghold with an easily accessible tunnel downwards. Other tweaks include all trees dropping golden apples, and various other ridiculously overpowered mechanics designed to be as condescending as possible.)
(In higher difficulty settings, mobs now spawn far more frequently, all entities are replaced with explosive creeper variants, several essential materials are lacking, and things are generally ridiculously and needlessly hard.

[Edit] Minor Tweaks to some Redstone Components Made some minor tweaks to make the use of some redstone components more intuitive. (Blocks like observers, dispensers, pistons, and other blocks where direction is important aare now randomly rotated when placed. Redstone repeaters now have a randomized level of delay. Pistons will now continue extending if they continue to receive redstone power up to several hundred blocks. Any other ideas to drive redstone builders insane?)

[Edit] Minor Changes to Torches. Lighting has been slightly adjusted on torches to fix minor bugs with rendering. (Torches now go out after awhile. It's alarming to consider that this was once actually a feature. Torches that go out cannot be relit, and are thus utterly useless.)

[Edit] Minor Changes to Durability. Made some small adjustments to durability stats to deal with durability problems. (Elytra now break randomly, (I mean, more randomly than usual), Wooden tools have incredibly high durability, and Netherite/diamond tools break very quickly.Tools can now realistically break without warning, even when at any durability level.)

[Edit] Slightly Improved Illager AI ~ The Pathfinding and spawn mechanics of Illagers have been slightly tweaked to be fairer and more intuitive. (Illager attacks now become progressively worse if you tick off the Illagers- they bring successively stronger enemies to attack you, which can amount in ridiculously overpowered raids if you kill too many of them. The Illagers will now try and steal your stuff, put Illager banners everywhere, etc. In stronger raids, they lay dynamite, dump lava on things, set fire to your home, etc.)

[Edit] Slight Changes to Slime Mechanics ~ Slime block mechanics have been changed slightly to make them easier to use. (The amount of blocks slimeblocks can now stick to is more or less completely unlimited, with extremely broken results. Bouncing on slime blocks randomly stops working, or does the opposite, launching players to ridiculous heights upon landing.)

[Edit] Removed Block of Eternal Screaming It was high time we got around to doing this. (Blocks of eternal screaming are more or less exactly what the name implies. They're found randomly when mining or exploring, and serve no use whatsoever. Instead, whenever a player is nearby, they start screaming in an excruciatingly loud and obnoxious tone of voice. Of course, thanks to the stonecutter bug, you can now make Chiseled Blocks of Eternal Screaming, Stairs of Eternal Screaming, Slabs of Eternal Screaming, etc.

[Edit] Slight Changes to Minecart Speed. Minecarts have been balanced out with some minor changes to speed and acceleration. (This likely won't be noticeable, but should be useful for optimization.) (Minecarts now randomly go ten times as fast, set blocks behind them on fire, and can cause death and explosions if the player runs into anything while riding the Minecart; OR move excruciatingly slowly, with no foreseeable cohesiveness.)

Removed Herobrine (A mysterious and unsettling figure can frequently be seen in the distance...)
----

I would love to hear some of your ideas! Share your best worst ideas, and feel free to make them as obnoxious, ridiculious, or outright bad as possible. We're not judgmental. Make them genuinely awful.

Might just be that Mojang had to use that number instead of 61.38 or its an unsolved bug.

Why 0.1 Does Not Exist In Floating-Point

Many new programmers become aware of binary floating-point after seeing their programs give odd results: “Why does my program print 0.10000000000000001 when I enter 0.1?”; “Why does 0.3 + 0.6 = 0.89999999999999991?”; “Why does 6 * 0.1 not equal 0.6?” Questions like these are asked every day, on online forums like stackoverflow.com.

The answer is that most decimals have infinite representations in binary. Take 0.1 for example. It’s one of the simplest decimals you can think of, and yet it looks so complicated in binary:



The bits go on forever; no matter how many of those bits you store in a computer, you will never end up with the binary equivalent of decimal 0.1.

Problem with understanding floats in c.. Why does it go into infinite loop?

A float has limited precision. Assuming it's implemented in IEEE754 single precision floating point, it only has 24 bits of precision, or about 7 decimal digits. The number 18000000 can be represented exactly in this format, but 18000001 cannot, so adding 1 results in the extra bits at the low end being either rounded or truncated resulting in the value 18000000. So you get an infinite loop.

Thank you!
That sounds lovely! I bet it looked great! The lights are definitely the tricky part, yeah.

This thread is too talk about the best protections for various items such as armor, swords, bows, and others. I will give my opinion, then others can either agree or disagree. (I have no idea if all of these will actually fit on these items, as they might show the infamous message, "Too expensive!")

Armor:

Helmet: Aqua Affinity, Protection IV, Mending, Thorns III

Chestplate: Protection IV, Mending, Thorns III

Leggings: Protection IV, Mending, Thorns III

Boots: Feather Falling IV, Protection IV, Mending, Thorns III

Swords: Sharpness V, Mending, Looting III, Sweeping Edge III, Knockback II

Bows: Power V, Mending (yes, I opt for Mending over Infinity lol), Unbreaking III

Pickaxes: Efficiency V, Fortune III, Silk Touch, Mending

Axe: Efficency V, Mending, Unbreaking III (I prefer swords over axes even in 1.16 as that's just my style)

Shovel: Efficiency V, Mending, Unbreaking III, Silk Touch

That's all I felt like listing, tell me in the comments if you want me to add more items. (except hoes lol, I don't even use them that much)

Pretty good list, but you missed a few enchantments, such as fire aspect, depth strider, soul speed for 1.16, etc. But other than that, well done!

The light level is too low; I read "y=6" as saying that they are 6 blocks off the ground (as opposed to literally being at y=6), which means that the light level at ground level directly below them is 10 if there are 5 air blocks between the ground and lantern and the light level at the sapling is only 4 (the light level decreases by 5 below the lantern and 1 for each step by taxicab distance along a diagonal towards the sapling, or just 2 per block along a diagonal), which is too low (in older versions most plants, including saplings, would uproot in low light levels but for some reason this was removed in 1.7. Bonemeal bypasses the light level check so even back then you could bonemeal a sapling in the dark and it would grow):

A 9 8 7 8 9 A

9 8 7 6 7 8 9

8 7 6 5 6 7 8

7 6 5 4 5 6 7

8 7 6 5 6 7 8

9 8 7 6 7 8 9

A 9 8 7 8 9 A

(A = 10 in hex)

You'll need to move the lanterns down by 4 blocks, or no more than 1 block of air between them and the ground (i.e. at eye level), which will give a light level of 8 at the sapling (I presume that the half-slabs are to prevent mobs from spawning, which is a dead giveaway that it is too dark as they spawn at 7 or less).
