So welcome back everyone my name is echo and i hope you’re having an absolutely fantastic day in today’s minecraft video we have a brand new beta for minecraft pocket edition the bedrock version this is the version 1.17.30.20 now available for android windows 10 and xbox here is the official confirmation coming

From j wells mega spud a community manager you know this already new minecraft beta rolling out today with more bug fixes and tweaks we’ve tweaked the spawning of gasts and magma cubes in small spaces too hoping it helps to balance things a bit check out the change log for 1.17.30.20 beta here

If you want to check out the full changes they are down below so yeah welcome back everyone today is actually a really good day for the bedrock community because as i mentioned we’re on beta 1.17.30 which means 1.17.20 betas are complete so over the next one to two weeks we’re gonna have

Another full release and that will be version 1.17.20 but i’ve noticed another change and this is something that i highly recommended to the developers you’ll probably notice that we have play settings marketplace profile well inside of here you do not see achievements anymore we do have settings inside of here but

If we go back to the home page this is where your achievements are now located now some devices already had this i think it was like android and ios but it’s now here available for windows 10 and xbox it wasn’t previously previously it was just like really

Awkward to access it was so annoying but your achievements are here and your settings are right here so yeah they’re still tweaking the ui and i expect more changes to be made going forward right let’s check out the changes as always if you do enjoy today’s beta video please

Be sure to leave a like i do really appreciate your support and it takes quite some time to set up these beta videos to explain it in the best detail i can getting into features and bug fixes starting off with stability and performance everybody’s favorite fixed several crashes

That could occur during gameplay so you know when you just play a minecraft and your game just crashes and you’re like wait what why yeah that’s the crashes they’re talking about fixed a crash that could sometimes occur when downloading large marketplace worlds accessibility changes text to speech now correctly reads item names

In the inventory inventory grid slots are no longer double counted for text to speech focus controls gameplay changes it’s an interesting one this one it’s kind of like a parody light blocks are now visible when holding another and also show brightness value so let’s place this down right now light

Blocks they actually originated on minecraft bedrock right but whenever you placed it you couldn’t see this right so it’s very very similar to the barrier now minecraft bedrock if you place down a barrier take it out of your inventory uh holding spot and then you go back over it it instantly appears

So that’s the change that they’ve done here with the light block now the light block is a fantastic introduction to minecraft it makes map making so much more easier and mods and things like that so whenever you are holding let’s move this out the way a second whenever you are

Holding this it now instantly uh appears and there’s a couple more changes here it says fixed light block not being removed when left clicking it while holding a light block so the issue here is if you were holding a light block and you tried to break a light block

It it wouldn’t it wouldn’t break so that’s been fixed so a couple of tweaks again to do with the light block the other change here is fixed light block brightness not being adjustable when right clicking it so there is many different levels that you can

That you can do here right so um i’ve got a level 15 which is the highest level of the light block and then this one’s just the original one it’s basically not lit if you want to check this out it’s forward slash give at p and then it’s light

Underscore block and if you do one and then you do seven you should get a light level of seven okay so there’s various different versions so the change here is let’s say we just started with the basic light block which is this one whenever we now hold it and right click

On it it goes to the value of one and two and three and four and five and you get the idea here all the way up to 15 when you get to 15 you can change it back all the way down as well so some very good changes with the light

Block just to make life a lot easier for bedrock players and specifically map makers and mod makers very good change also forgot to mention fixed light block hitbox issues so it’s just a lot easier to to use them in general fixed barrier block being destructible whilst not holding a barrier block now i

Read the change log on this and basically people were kind every forward slash game mode survival people were able to to break this or at least it had like breaking particles uh so it’s been changed but you can also see in survival when you are holding a barrier block it doesn’t show the

Barrier block uh that’s ordinary if you go back to creative you can see it oh we have two of them so that’s the reason why i like the the new changes to the light blocks but also why barrier blocks are great but that’s also another change the next one boats now disappear from

Inventory correctly after placing it on water in survival mode so forward slash gamemode s whenever you place this down on water basically you would have another boat inside of your inventory slot it was basically a boat a duplication glitch so that’s the change there user interface changes

Text to speech for chat setting once again correctly narrates chat messages sidebar strings are now localized properly when a new language is loaded or the current language is changed and this is the one i was talking about updated the achievements button and moved from the profile screen to the main menu

And pause screen so we hit this now no longer are your settings down there no longer your achievements up here it’s resuming settings as it should be you go down here and you can now access your achievements thank you developers for listening to our feedback enabled new achievement screens for vr

Not including psvr moving on to vanilla parity changes the first one we have eating tourist fruit while gliding no longer deals full damage to the player so this is the same as java if you have an electron and you and you start eating these i believe you still take a bit of damage

But you no longer take full crazy fall damage the next one fixed an animation parity issue with skeletons not using both arms to hold their bows let me show you so you’ll see here uh let’s go to forward slash time set night and then let’s do forward slash game mode

S and let’s oops forward slash game mode s and let’s summon a skeleton you’ll see that it’s now both holding a bow and and you can see both of the arms are up that wasn’t the case previously now we still do not have the good cool skeletons

On bedrock like they do on java but the change here you can see both arms are up before he kills me let’s go back to creative and to make life a little bit easier for myself let’s set a day let me show you the actual change on the feedback website

So it’s actually been an issue for a very long time apparently it was hot fixed and it came back so the comparison here is you can see the arm is up but it wasn’t using them the same and i think there’s a better picture here as well

Yeah so you can see this arm is forward but he’s using this one this arm should be a little bit closer to the bow i know it’s like a minor change but it’s it’s finally that’s that’s how it’s meant to look how it did in the older versions and then they broke it

And now it’s been fixed mobs fixed an issue where mobs would sometimes render with incorrect geometry when viewed from the structure block preview window let me show you this on the bug report mobs in structure block previews are glitched check this out look look look how freaking glitched out the mobs are

I got some better pictures here for you check out this so the pig is kind of rendering like a creeper and then this one’s like honestly i’ve seen this and i was like honestly i’ve never seen this happen before but apparently it can happen so just to mess around with this let’s

Put down a structure block let’s put a pig in here and let’s check it so you can see here like the mobs are they’re not broken uh they’re not looking like creepers i don’t know how rare that occurrence was i just thought it was really funny experimental features

Withers can now be spawned on negative height so basically people were going to the new negative like 63 or 62 and trying to spawn a wither and it just wouldn’t spawn at all now these next couple of changes are absolutely fantastic the ghasts no longer spawn in less than a five times

Four by five area so you’ve probably seen it before that gas were just spawning literally everywhere that’s now been fixed magma cubes no longer spawn in less than three by three by two areas so both of these have finally been fixed the next one is medium magma cubes

Now have a larger hitbox and it says shulker boxes now remain in dispenses when dispensed at world heights so people will go into world height dispensing them and they would go like a couple of blocks above it uh just just a glitch block changes unicode font now correctly highlight on signs

With glowing text so here’s the bug report it’s a pretty new issue basically as you guys know this is your new and improved outlines uh that’s how it was looking with the unicode although it looks pretty cool looks like something really cool for halloween but certain languages certain unicode

Will now look a lot better waterlogged blocks no longer occasionally turn into ghost blocks which means they just disappear pumpkins placed facing south east or west now can be used to trade with villages if they were mined with silk touch tools more candles can no longer be added to candles placed

Without any support block now i have no idea what this means so if anybody does please explain it to me the next set of changes graphical sky no longer renders through walls of a large enclosed area when using fog technical updates education and chemistry new chemistry material

Reductions can be defined in the json files chalkboards now appear consistently when being placed commands and then you’ve got the forward slash clone command now copy signal strength for levers and redstone dust now the only reason why i put this one in here because i thought this is pretty cool

So of course when you have a lever and then you have a redstone dust so you’ll know like a signa like the certain signal strength you know how how far away the signal can go so you can see the signals getting a little bit weakened and of course it’s going to stop eventually

So basically the commands now the clone command will now copy the exact strength the rest of the changes are on the chains log so let’s go and check them out so again if you’re interested in the technical side of minecraft there has been quite a lot of command

Changes it was too much text to put specifically on signs so refer to the change dog if you’re interested there’s been changes to mobs items and much more alrighty i’m not even going to complain but yeah really like the the funniest thing today was to do with

The structure block one where mobs would be deformed uh overall it’s good news though because bedrock is rapidly making progress we’re no longer in 1.17.20 we are now focusing on the 1.17.30 versions i hope today’s video has helped you out if it has could you leave a like and if

You’re still watching in today’s video say you know what echo those structure blocks were pretty broken everyone have a great day stay beautiful and i’ll see you all in the next video goodbye You
