Minecraft 1.19.4 Snapshot 23W06A – Total Manipulation!

Hello everyone and welcome back to another Minecraft update video obviously this is Snapshot 23w06a and I’ve labeled this as a 1.19.4 because those 1.20 experimental features well they just haven’t been touched in this snapshot but some other things have been we got some very powerful new commands and features that have been

Added into the game but first of all let’s get into the changes related to survival Minecraft first of all jukebox when you put in a record disc it plays it but now you’ll see that there are note particles playing above it this is a parity change to make it similar to

Bedrock this is kind of like how you see these particle effects above a note block so Bedrock Edition already had this and now Java has it too next up we’re gonna go ahead into the creative inventory and search for paintings and you’ll see here that all the different

Types that you can place in this game are listed not only the name of the painting but also the author is listed here too now this means in functional blocks you got a whole bunch of them filling up this space they all have the same icon and in operator utilities

There are the four ones that you can’t get in survival mode so now when you click you’ll get the exact one that’s specified from the one that you selected in the creative menu one thing to note here you do need the amount of space to

Place it so if I try and put this one over the edge for example it can’t actually place until we move it over by one also in the ingredients tab fire charge has been added and there is also a new game rule which is do Vines spread

To default it will be set to true and currently I had it set to full so let’s go ahead and enable that and you can see the vines growing that’s because I sped up the random tick speed to 3000 and funny enough it looks like moyang actually missed a couple of Vine types

Because the game rule is set to false at the moment yet the never types can still grow that’ll probably be fixed in the next one right and next we have the skulk sensor which has had a lot of functionality added to it so filling up a respawn anchor with Glowstone will

Create a signal of six and also for six interacting with an item frame putting an item in popping it off or changing it will create a signal you can trample farmland for six and remember a regular jump is just five and I got a feeling a

Lot of these new detections are just six by default so I’ll let you know if something changes getting in and out of a boat is now detected too and getting into the boat is actually a seven and getting out as a six dying a sheep will

Give you a signal strength of seven also adding or removing a leash will now be detected for eight taking a book from a lectern will activate it harvesting a glow Berry will set it off and if you run away you can right click on Vines to

Stop them from growing this will now be detected by the sensor and a turtle successfully laying a turtle egg will now be detected and the same for frogs when they successfully lay frog spawn next up we have a new command which is known as damage and as you might suspect

It allows you to use the command to issue damage into the world so so as you’ll see here the command is damaged then you get to select an entity you want to Target specify the amount of damage and then the damage type which learned me to lead there’s one called

Bad respawn point and you’ll see other familiar things in here too like fireworks Fireballs even generic and let’s just say I decided to select falling Anvil I could then go on to specify at or buy but since Doc is not in this world I have to settle for

Anviling myself and if we look at the death message it says assumable squash by a falling Anvil perhaps this one would be a better example assume was prick to death okay let’s try again a Sumo was shot by a Sumer so this command can be manipulated further by having at

Or buy so at a location or buy another entity and then also from another entity too and if you want to get into the weeds of this the website lays out the Syntax for the command as well as going over each of these parameters in detail

And there is a whole section here called damage types that can be extended through data packs and so there is a whole bunch of documentation here on how to do that if you’re into any of this custom stuff the article is linked down below and there will be more technical

Stuff from the website real soon but first of all just want to take a moment to say if you’re enjoying the video and you want to keep up to date with these snapshots make sure to subscribe to the channel like the video if you want to

Support it and now let’s crack on so thanks for doing that we’re now going to create a new world and that’s because this screen has been updated you’ll notice here there is a button for experiments this makes it so much easier to use than the data pack screen one

Thing I’ll point out though is you’ve turned these features on and then head over to the data pack screen they’ll also be selected here for you some keyboard navigation controls have been added as well allowing you to cycle through the tabs at the top using

Control on tab or Ctrl shift and tab to go in the opposite direction along with those accessibility changes there are more the damage tilt that was recently reintroduced can be manipulated here this is the amount of shake caused by being hurt and if you’re unaware of how

This works the damage to is in a direction that is the opposite of the direction you’ve been attacked from the keybind’s screen has been updated for conflicts if you have two mapped to the same key you’ll now get a mouse over telling you what the conflict is also

With useful tweaks and changes no doubt but now we move on to some real technical stuff that has allowed me to put Giant floating blocks into this world so this is one of three new entities that can be summoned into the world the first is item display the

Second is block display and the third is text display so these are similar to markers which were originally invisible armor stands placed into a world a sort of access point that the player couldn’t see now when I go and summon these in you’ll see we get the blue line like we

Do over here but there’s no other information to tell these things what to do yet so they don’t have hitboxes or Collision boxes they’re sort of just entities in the world so here’s where things get a little complicated because you can assign data to them and then

Make them visible in the world in a variety of different ways like manipulating the size of the block to make it ginormous or even rotating that block like this there’s a lot you can do and we’re going to run through a few examples here so you can summon in text

An item or a block and then it will just sort of float there in a world without a hitbox or a collision box so I can’t punch this thing away in fact if you need to get rid of something like this you’ll need a kill command like the one

On the screen now some of these properties are specific for the type but it just so happens Enchanted can actually work on all three of them but others are Universal like the rendering type known as Billboards so notice how when I look at this thing right like it’s always just right there facing

Directly towards me and this can be manipulated in a variety of ways this one right here is called horizontal so it’s slightly different to the one over there it’s it’s really quirky you can also manipulate the brightness as well so this one is just in complete darkness

Which lets you actually see the glint a little easier and last of all we have a view range which means once we go back a certain distance away from where it is it’s no longer rendered so if we pop over here to the website you can see

That for the item display it lays out all the different things that you can do with it and overall there’s not actually a lot but the common properties these apply to everything and the transform which was the first one on that list allows you to manipulate the size and

Scale and rotation of things then we have a Billboards brightness and view range which I just demonstrated and there’s also Shadow radius and Shadow strength and I believe this is related to the shadow that an entity or an item entity can create you can manipulate the width and the height of what’s being

Rendered and also override if it’s glowing or not and the block display doesn’t have a lot going for it other than block State this for example is where you have a block but its state is manipulated like the shape of it or if it’s waterlogged and here’s is an

Example of a block State that’s actually been manipulated so it’s also glowing how cool is that now the third of these three is text and this one actually has quite a few ways in which you can manipulate it one of those is color which isn’t actually listed here but you

Can change the opacity of the text the background color the default type of background it has you can add Shadow like we just saw you can make it see-through and you can control its alignment all of this is documented in the article and if you’re new to this

Stuff it’s very difficult to get into because it’s tricky to get all of the syntax correct to actually make this stuff happen but if you do you’ve now got an incredible amount of control over specialized entities that are just there for displaying text items and blocks inside of the world and letting you

Manipulate them how you like the possibilities are endless and I was actually going to render a giant player head up in the sky but it turns out this stuff is yet to work with MPT data so you couldn’t pull a custom texture and I’d like to shout out misode for all of

The help with the commands and the syntax and making it possible for me to actually show you how all of this works so thank you so much my dude and on that note we’ve covered pretty much everything in this snapshot so if you’re looking for more to watch why not swing

By my link tree it’s linked down below I’ve put lots of interesting content that I’ve made over the years into that website there’s links to my music me playing guitar and other cool stuff so if you’re looking for something to check out it’s linked down below thanks for

Watching and I’ll see you next time bye-bye
