Minecraft Snapshot 21w06a NEW CAVE GENERATION!

Hello everybody and welcome back to another episode of omg craft it’s not really an episode this is just a normal little thing cake generation is not a normal thing though holy camoly look at this place i didn’t build it this isn’t some crazy custom generation thing this is in

A snapshot that is the development build of minecraft the developers let the community play around with it see what breaks what doesn’t work so they can fix it before it goes out to everybody and this is brand new as of 30 minutes ago as i’m recording uh this snapshot adds new world

Generations so in the previous snapshots we’ve seen lush cave like items and plants and whatnot this one actually changes world generation it doesn’t actually add any new cave biomes but it does add these new i mean i get there’s kind of like cave biomes but they they’re they’re not filled with

There’s a fish there’s a fish in this thing uh they’re not actually filled with anything they’re not filled with like the plants and and things uh like you would expect a biome to be filled with but this cave generation is absolutely insane i’m looking at a stone it’s absolutely crazy so

Inside of the blog post they let us know that there’s basically two types of new generation by the way these are called noisy caves i believe that that is a technical term because they’re using noise to generate this instead of like some other procedure that’s the procedural way they’re generating these

Um that they’re not actually noisy you can’t actually hear any noise but uh that’s what they’re called there’s two types cheese and spaghetti and i assume this is cheese maybe it’s spaghetti because we got i’m not exactly sure f3 doesn’t like show you if you’re in spaghetti versus it just says birch forest

Um so that’s the two different types of noisy caves that are like generating now you may notice we got these big old pools of water look at this that is so cool i’m gonna go in spectator mode you can see that there’s like this floor to the water too which kind of creates

This roof the ceiling to this other area these are aquifers so aquifers uh exist in real life aquifers you know are obviously a thing that actually exists you have this sort of situation look at this this is crazy it is one level up here and then there’s like a retaining

Wall and then it goes down to a lower level it’s ridiculous so i love it i love it i love the generation i love how this looks um these aquifers will allow different water levels inside of the cave so you can obviously see we got water level there we got a water level

Here here there’s no water so there’s an aquifer up there that is causing that water level to be different uh there’s a little bit of a weirdness with generation of of these aquifers by the way if i just go into spectator just go into the side you can kind of just see

Some of the the differences in caves like this would have totally been a ravine before and i feel like this is maybe we’re looking at spaghetti i need some spaghetti in my life um so you go we also have these up here i think this is what they were talking

About when they were talking about sometimes the aquifers are a little messed up at 64 to 31 they’re just always filled with water but this could be like a cave entrance or whatever i love how there’s like a bottom to it there’s like a layer that’s like nope that’s where it ends

Uh so that’s just kind of a general overview of of what we’re seeing so far so a few things that i’ve noticed one is a diamond is really easy to find in these massive cave structures like bam bam also look at this who needs to cut down trees when you

Have an abandoned mine shaft that has the longest poles around um so that is that is like i mean seriously like a diamond diamond oh my gosh bedrock this is like the first time this one goes all the way into bedrock that is so cool look at these pillars

You got diamond diamond which is really really cool now here’s something that is going to absolutely blow your mind maybe it won’t it blew my mind but i i’m just i’m just blown away by anything in minecraft so i’m going to hit f3 here okay we are at y level 13. y level

Traditionally in minecraft goes to zero in the over world i guess in every world and that’s it there’s and then after that it’s void so we’re here at 13. once that hits zero we’re gonna have bedrock layer and nothing else so look at this number

That’s the middle number y as we go down we get to zero but as you can see we still have a lot more below us we can go into negative numbers negative numbers baby this goes all the way down to negative 64. and then we get the normal bedrock

Layer that we are used to so the build limit now goes from you know 256 down to negative two or negative 64. so you actually get a lot more blocks to build with if you’re going to go from bedrock layer all the way up to build limit but all of this

Stuff that we are seeing right now is oh look at this a fossil obviously there’s a little bit of a little bit of bugs a little bit of bugs um but everything that we are seeing is in a space in minecraft that was unable to be built in before because you can go

Now into negative numbers that’s one of the reasons i would assume that diamond is so uh prevalent i guess i don’t know is like there there’s not there’s not minecraft math for like if you go into negative numbers where when does diamond stop spawning maybe it just keeps

Ramping up i’m not sure uh so we got a ton of diamond around here as you can see which yeah i’m not complaining i’m not complaining there’s of course other minor changes like these uh mine shafts that have these pillars there’s a reason you haven’t seen them before because it’s new

Because this is added to this snapshot and so now you won’t have mine chefs that are just kind of floating you’ll they’ll be supported by pillars also cobwebs should always be attached to stuff so you’re never going to have a floating cobweb off all on its little

Lonesome which we used to have in previous mine shaft generation by the way i’m i have night vision on so if i wanted to get rid of it get no not give i meant to clear no don’t give me anything there you go clear so this is what it looks like

Without night vision on all of that leica lychen i i can i still have not learned how to say this correctly like a uh lycan anyway it’s a it’s generating so it adds this really cool look if you’re just exploring you can kind of get an idea

Of how far up the area that you’re exploring in and i can just imagine you know obviously not in creative like i am now but in survival mode these are going to be so fun to walk around and explore in i just want to build a base underground it’s

Totally easy to do now it feels like underground base heck yeah count me in is this is this where the warden will spawn because it’s so dark it’s spooky so a few things that i’ve noticed while going through is that it looks like the generation like wants to reach up to the surface

Like see see this right here we got this this crazy kind of cave thing that kind of goes into this other thing or whatever it’s all loading in but it reaches up to the surface now this is in a situation where there’s water but i bet you that cave entrances are

Going to look way cooler now uh that we have this cave update i think that they’re going to be way more epic and way more interesting so cave entrances are an update that i wasn’t even thinking about like when you’re on the surface and you want to go down

Instead of just like small little holes you’re going to have these massive massive cave entrances which is going to look absolutely epic i’m sure that there’s going to be a few of them that are just going to you know they’re going to be in the side of a mountain or

Whatever and it’s just going to look so awesome so i’m really looking forward to that also i feel like night vision is like useful again like i don’t i don’t tend to use night vision that much whenever i’m doing stuff in minecraft but if i come into an area

Like you know something like this and i’m looking for diamonds of course i’m gonna want night vision i won’t be able to see all over the place because i can’t get torches all over the cave i’m gonna want night vision in order to be able to to actually see across a cave

So it’s like it like makes night vision useful again there are a few updates uh the biggest one i feel like is that the drip leaf will now tilt even if you’re crouching that was something that i was like really showing off in the previous uh version of this

Is that that no longer is supported and you could even like crouch and jump which you can’t do anymore now that like the moment you touch it it gets mad at you i’m like barely touch it and it falls another change is that if you hit a drip leaf

With a projectile it would break it and and the whole drip leaf would break now it will just tilt down so it’ll just like wilt immediately so if someone’s standing on it they go fallen now this feels almost like an addition not even a change but if a drip leaf is powered by

Redstone it will not tilt so this one right here once i turn on this lever you can hear that sound it’s like it locks it in place so i’m gonna jump on this one to get up to this one you’ll notice this one tilts below but the one i’m on does

Not and it gives off that little sound like it’s like it’s trying to but the redstone won’t let it happen now there is an exception here you can still hit this leaf that’s powered on by redstone there you go see the little particles with an arrow and it will fall

Then so it’s like not impossible but uh but it will like it won’t be affected by the player this adds really cool functionality really really cool functionality i’m sure that a lot of maps and survival things can use this that you’re aiming for the drip leaf to

Hit it and and cause like some game mechanic to happen well that is about it for 21w06a i really love seeing world generation in this snapshot i cannot wait to see how it all integrates together because we’ve seen all of the lush cave things and if you

Missed that that was last week so we have the lush cave like plants and whatnot and we have axolotls and all this other stuff just none of it is fitting together we have all the puzzle pieces it just doesn’t make anything yet cannot wait for that all to be

Integrated together because this is looking gorgeous i just want to build a cave base so bad so bad and the fact that we’ve gone into the negative y space is also just insane to me so i hope that you enjoyed this look at snapshot21w06a if you enjoyed it please

Give this video a like also make sure you subscribe for future videos tips tricks tutorials and spotlights here on omgcraft and by the way i’m doing something really cool this week if you’re watching it the week that this comes out i’m doing a game with me on
