I made a Savanna Update for Minecraft…

I made a savannah update for minecraft and it completely changed everything we’ve got new blocks we’ve got new trees and of course we even have zebras and if that wasn’t enough we even updated the desert but that’s sort of unrelated but first for comparison the existing vanilla minecraft savannah biome

Not that it’s bad but it just isn’t that interesting but that’s okay i think we fixed that and the best part is all of this was done on a vanilla minecraft server called origin realms so you can see it all for yourself and of course we’ve been interrupted by

None other than a balloon that’s wonderful come on what’s inside i want to know let me let me in let me in let me in hey there we go uh puffer fish there’s puffer fish oh that little guy nearly took me out huh oh okay let’s take this from the top for this

Savannah update we didn’t just take the original vanilla savannah and move a couple of things around oh no we completely rewrote it from the ground up we got inspired from the original vanilla savannah and basically took it and amplified it and made it even better that means that we’ve taken the plateaus

And the hills and wrote our own custom generation to make sure that they look extra snazzy oh another balloon but that alone doesn’t make a good biome we had to take a couple of extra special effects to make it even better for example as you may have noticed

We’ve written an entirely custom color map just for this biome i mean after all colors are very important that sets the tone for the entire environment so our water is bluer our grass is greener and it all comes together and makes a huge difference and of course when you add in

All of our new custom blocks to break up the grass and make it just look a little bit more interesting it’s all so amazing i’m gonna show off blocks a little bit later in the video so for now let’s put these back and of course the piste resistance

The baobob trees which anybody who’s a fan of minecraft and has been following minecraft news for a while knows we are actually going to be getting these in vanilla minecraft so it was only fitting that we decided to build them for ourselves and put them in the biome and just like

Everything else in this biome these baobob trees are also on their own generator that means every time we make the world we’ll have fresh new designs for the baobob tree and in case you were wondering these awesome blocks do actually craft into all of the different wooden materials that you would expect

It to bail bob planks where are you we need you in vanilla minecraft honestly you could build a really nice tree fort up here just saying what’s that you want to hear about zebras well okay no biome is complete without a brand new mob not just any mob an exclusive mob

To the environment and that is why we’ve added zebras but as you could see they don’t like me but i think we could change that maybe a little bit of this wheat will change their mind come on guys you can trust me there nope nope almost come on come on

There you go yeah there we go and now all we need is a new saddle just like that so as you can see you can tame zebras and i know what you’re thinking this is kind of like a horse but trust me this is not any normal horse as you could see they

Are by default incredibly fast but they don’t really have that much jumping power we’ve also made improvements to the general taming behavior as you can see they actually launch you now instead of just kind of kicking you off they will send you flying which in my opinion is a lot better than

The current behavior of horses and as you notice they will spawn in herds and they’ll actually travel in packs as well zebras are a little bit more clever than your typical minecraft horse let’s see if we can tame another one come on trust me you want this wheat it’s golden wheat

Five star wheat oh so close so close and whenever you add a new mob into minecraft you’ve got to make sure that it actually fits into the game naturally so in this case we’ve actually made it so that crocodiles will chase zebras but of course

He still prefers me oh geez uh oh this is not where you want to be with a crocodile oh no no no ugh it was only a matter of time honestly i just can’t get enough of the launching mechanic it just feels so much more natural than horses currently do

Also how adorable is this baby zebra i mean come on oh oh darn it come on no no no no okay we got it we got it we got it no okay one final note about the zebras before we continue wheat in the savannah biome actually

Does serve a purpose we have made sure that it generates here so that the zebras can eat it and they will actually eat it it’s just a little bit hard to catch on camera which as a side note it would be amazing if all of the vanilla crops in minecraft

Actually spawned in some sort of natural way i mean it just makes the world feel a little bit more interesting speaking of interesting take a look at this amazing acacia tree we’ve even updated those but as a side note have you ever noticed that in vanilla minecraft the savannah biome

Always spawns nearby a desert and that my friends is why we also decided to update the desert because the two go hand in hand so that meant actually blending the biome together so as you could see here the way that the desert actually connects to the savannah is incredibly intelligent not to mention

The surrounding hills kind of match the same style and of course we also had to update the cactus in the process giving it some really really cool limbs i mean hey man high five ow jerk but i plan on doing an entirely other video once we finish

Updating the desert with the new temple and everything so subscribe and stay tuned speaking of structures you may have noticed that we don’t currently have any structures in the savannah biome well my friends do i have a challenge for you i would love to see how creative you can

Be and see what kind of structure ideas you could come up with and the best part is you can create your own realm using the savannah biomes entirely one of the best parts about updating any biome is adding new materials to build with and as you can see

We have got a lot of new building blocks that come packed filled with this savannah biome and not just these there’s a lot of other smaller decorations as well like new plants or even new variants of existing plants like this double tall dry bush and of course we’ve got rocks and

Pebbles all over the place here on origin realms our goal is to basically overhaul vanilla minecraft as you currently know it and that means updating all of the biomes in the world but also adding new ones and of course in case you haven’t already i highly recommend you come on to see

Our progress because as you can see with this desert things are looking pretty spicy even our swamps are looking fantastic and we’ve also got loads of new mobs all fit for the biomes like the crocodiles and these frogs oh geez but we haven’t stopped above ground

Alone as you can see we’ve even updated our cave system and it is looking incredible if i do say so myself which as you can see that also means completely updating our mob dungeons and i think we’ve done a great job because this place is frightening not today zombies not today

Okay maybe today and now i’m going to get the drop on this zebra because that brings us back to the savannah biome and i don’t know if you know we got enough of the zebra because let’s be honest you could never have enough oh i almost got him come on

We can do it we’re blending into the environment come on little guy there we go just a little bit close there we go ah we’ve got a new partner in crime and as you can see because i didn’t show it off before these guys have a beautiful saddle

Texture i mean it just looks fantastic i mean i would say i really look the part this really all came together no no no no no no hey you gotta love it for puddles of water and that my friends is going to do it for our savannah update

But i’m curious before you go how do you feel we did did we do a great job or is there still some work left to be done but anyways that is gonna be it for today’s video if you enjoyed consider leaving a thumbs up and best of all
