paulsoaresjr – Minecraft 1.18 NEW WORLD GENERATION (Minecraft 1.18 Experimental Snapshot 1)

Hey what’s going on folks paulie jr here and welcome to minecraft java edition 1.18 experimental snapshot one that just landed on minecraft.net it is sort of part one of the next update of the caves and cliffs update that is uh now available for your pleasure however it is not part of the

Launcher you will not see this in the launch you have to download it explicitly from the minecraft.net webpage and i’ll put a link down below to the specific page where you can download the zip file then on the packet into your versions folder there are instructions on that page as well so

Check it out if you want to give it a try i imagine it’s going to be on the launcher pretty soon but this is uh very very experimental and we want to take a look at it right now can’t wait so let’s go ahead and create a new world i’m

Super excited for the caves and the cliffs especially the caves which is my kind of my thing right as far as i know this one has the lush caves and drip stone caves and a bunch of the new um surface world generation as well so we’re gonna call this 118

Exp snap and let’s uh let’s use that seed as well so if you want to follow along you can if we get a really cool map all right and let’s uh let’s turn cheats on so we can switch into different modes and get around and look at all the cool

Stuff and away we go worlds using experimental settings are not supported roger that proceed wow it’s taking a long time here we go joining the world oh oh it’s lovely look at this wow we’re so close to the clouds holy smokes where are we we are at 106.

Holy moly that is super super high um yeah so the whole world now is much larger you can go down farther and you can go up higher i think the mountains go can possibly go all the way up to like 256 as far as the generation goes

And then all the way down to a negative 64. but the uh i think sea level is now at 64 or something like that rather than zero so i don’t know we’ll head down and check it out momentarily but i kind of want to walk over here and check out this

Biome right here we are so high we’re in a meadow right now but i think this is gonna be one of the new snowy mountains not sure exactly what it’s called like the slippery slopes or snowy slopes or something um let’s go check it out and have a walk

Over here and we might even run into some powdered snow and fall in to the snow and get trapped and freeze to death which would be pretty amazing i do want to play a survival series here with 1.18 but um i don’t think we’re gonna use the experimental version oh we’re in the

Clouds i’m walking on the clouds man i’m on cloud nine look at that look how fast you can get to the clouds in this version respond so far up into the mountains that is so cool all right so we are in a snowy slope i was right pretty close anyway

And there should be some powdered snow blocks in here um randomly somewhere we might fall in but doesn’t look like it’s gonna happen all right let’s let’s go into spectator mode and let’s have a look around we’re going to fly up here and check out this mountain it is super

Super high look at this we’re in the 150 range oh baby look at that let’s get to the tippity top and have a peek around here wow look at this guy so so high and it’s beautiful let’s go down here and take a look at this uh

Hill looks like a flower forest hill surrounded by water it’s like a natural moat you could put a castle or a tower right up top on here and be protected from all the uh would be invaders oh my gosh i’m in love look at this the drip stone cave

Big stalag tights falling down here we got a waterfall flowing down from above really super oh wow it is massive okay hold on we need lights but i don’t want to use torches i want to use my night vision goggles let’s get some night vision going

There we go let’s toss back a uh night vision potion well here we go we got some monsters here so monster spawning has changed pretty dramatically and uh it may it may stick it might not i don’t know um keep in mind it is an experimental version

And things may change but right now monsters are only spawned in complete and utter darkness so that would be like a light level zero so a lot of people are celebrating that change especially people that just want to build and not be bothered by monsters and have to put torches every

Five feet which i can understand but that is going to affect survival mode and challenge let’s plays and that kind of thing um hardcore playthroughs and even custom design maps that require low-level lighting because even uh like even a redstone torch now will prevent these uh mobs from spawning

Yeah it won’t affect things like um phantoms and slimes and that kind of those kinds of monsters but it will affect the standard variety they will of course spawn on the surface when the moon is up when it’s night time because i don’t think the moon provides any light it’s

Not really a light source so it should be fine on the surface but it’s going to be very very different in dark places and around your bills oh don’t step on that you dang fool it’s sharp and he did it again not too bright are you

I love it that’s so great all right let’s uh fly around this drip stone cave you can see some oars here we got some copper and we got some coal we’ve got a massive water flow coming down here the other cool thing about this generation is we’re going to have multiple

Levels of water and underground water also known as aquafires the technical term let’s see if we can find a little underwater pool oh it’s bob hi bub it’s sharp in here isn’t it buddy gotta watch where you’re stepping drink another knight potion and let’s slip back into spectator mode and we’re going to

Just go right through the wall and see what else is around but yeah this is the drip stone cave with all these stalag tights and stalagmites and look at that it leads right up to the surface it’s so amazing let’s crash through a wall here and see what else we can see

We want a lush cave i see some lushness over here some greenery a little vegemitation and here’s an underwater pool very very cool so these i believe are glow berries and they do provide light of course you can’t tell right now because i just took the

Night vision potion we have to wait for that to wear off or actually what we can do is drink some milk check this out we have glowy squids underwater in an underwater pool that is amazing so i did drink milk and my night vision is now gone so all this

Light you see here is natural we got the glowberries i think those these are called from these vines providing light look at this we have a drip stone cave in a lush cave interconnected with a little water flowing over this terrace this is beautiful my gosh this is amazing guys i love it

So much i’m gonna spend so much time underground now i may just decide to move underground forever let’s see how deep we are right now we’re at 65 so actually 64 right here is sea level as far as i know pretty close to it yes you’re very close to the

Surface so that cave right there is in the mountains look at that isn’t that amazing so apparently 64 is the new zero right so zero is way to heck down here all the way down where i think you’ll get into the deep slate is when deep slate starts to

Arrive and appear let’s go over here and see if we can see some deep slate all right here we go check this out we’re at zero right so now you can see the change transition from um stone regular stone to the deep slate stone and this is an amazing

Intersection of a drip stone cave and regular cave and a uh a mine shaft and look at the size of this i don’t even know what this is i guess it’s just a combination of drip stone and what else do they call these they have a name for this i think

Like cheese and spaghetti and noodle i’m not really sure which one this one is i think it’s a combination of a lot of things together but look at that holy cow i want to play this map in survival i just might and then find this place and live down

Here i love mine shafts intersect with like ravines but this is like a ravine on steroids it’s insane look at the chains going all the way up to the ceiling holding up that platform right there let’s check a potion we can see a little better you can see

That mobs are spawning in here obviously there’s um enough darkness in here that they will spawn but they won’t spawn in even the lowest light levels even even level one will prevent a monster from spawning this is so crazy cool i can’t get over it

Oh my i want to live here look at this we got this curtain of waterfall and then behind it oh i can make a boat now then behind you have all this over here in the lava wow i don’t see oh there’s a diamond i

Was just about to say i don’t see any diamonds but the whole ore distribution um generation has been modified quite a bit so you’re not gonna see a lot of the real precious stuff in the walls like this yeah in a nutshell the way this works is if a

Particular ore is going to be generated in the block oh hi bob how are we doing buddy yeah this is my diamond pal i saw it first get out of here eat it beat it here have some milk kid all right it’s good for you healthy teeth strong bones

Um yeah so this block right here for example has two air exposed um blocks right so this side and this side so the way the math works now is if there is any air there’s a slim chance that it won’t be generated and it’s just going to be a regular old

Deep slate in this case right but we got lucky here and it did actually get generated so fortunately these caves are massive and there’s a ton of surface areas so we are going to get plenty of exposed oars especially the uh you know the desirable ones

Yeah i’m just not a huge fan of strip mining and branch mining and that kind of thing is finding kind of boring um so it is nice to see that there’s plenty of ores still around especially in a cave of this size i mean i see diamonds all

Over the place the trick of course is going to be getting them right in survival mode you can’t just fly up there and snatch it oh look at this yeah i love this i love this so much i’ll put a link to the ore distribution chart

Down below so you can check it out for yourself if you want to see how it all works this is absolutely tremendous this mine shaft built into this cave and all this open space i love it i cannot wait to play i just can’t and i love this intersection of lush

And drip stone and massive ravine got a little green in here a little bit of natural light some water some glowy squids yeah boy it’s gonna be amazing all right let’s go see something else maybe we should go back to the surface i’ve see i think we’ve seen all the cave types

That are in this experimental version the lush and the drip stone look at this we got a tree down here oh there’s a hole there’s a hole right there so this tree’s getting sunlight so that it can grow oh boy this could be a fun challenge right here kind of like a 4-0

Fl 404 challenge just jumped out here and you got your one tree to get started with so you have some wood i love that this cave is actually in the mountains too look how high we are we’re at we’re at 0.39 right so you don’t have to go far

You don’t have to go deep to find it either but if you want to go deep all you have to do is well jump off a cliff and splash and now you’re down in negative 17. with all the bats and the zombies and everything else and i’m losing my uh

Losing my night vision here which is fine i kind of want to see this now in its natural light setting i want to see the zombies and the skeletons in their natural habitat hi guys how’s it going what do you all think of the new caves

Huh you like it it’s pretty nice right yeah awesome i think they i think they like it except for the lighting parts right because now you can only spawn in the complete and utter darkness how do you feel about that all right let’s get back up to the surface oh it’s pouring rain

What a cruddy day just like real life it’s what we’ve been getting here for days rain and clouds now that we’ve seen the caves let’s go check out the cliffs but i’m going to change this weather because it’s bad i wish i could do this in real life nope

Clear it clear it clear it up oh look at that we’re back at spawn i don’t know how i got here just kind of random look so here’s the village that was near spawn and we’re in the snowy tundra right here but i love how high it is it’s so far up

Into the mountains these are some hardy mountain folk the highlanders look at that house right on the ledge what an overlook that’s a great view it’s got to be an expensive home then you got a house down here and then you got the river right here so we should be down around

64. right again 64 is the new zero so many holes and as you know all holes lead to adventure at least in minecraft they do look at that leads all the way down to the lowest depths all right got some good news and some bad news good news is monsters do

Spawn on the overworld at night look at them all bad news is it seems like there’s a lot more i don’t know why maybe because there’s nowhere else to go there’s too much light everywhere else apparently so they’re all looking for the dark places all right anyway i’m looking for a

Um another mountain oh look at this wow all the way down we go love it so many holes so much adventure awaits this is crazy anyway i’m looking for a looking for a mountain like a super high mountain i think they call it uh lofty lofty peaks

Something like that but i have not found one yet i’m gonna keep going i’ll let you know when i find one oh hey hang on we’re going up see some trees high trees oh here we go oh that’s beautiful this big lake down here and then this just pops right up

What are we at giant spruce tiger not exactly what i’m looking for still pretty high though still pretty high but not high enough okay we got something here this could just be snowy slopes we’ve seen those already it’s a snowy slope yep wait a minute

Did i go around in a circle again how is this happening there’s no way are you kidding me i did i went around in a circle maybe it’s just a tendency i have to kind of spin in circles when looking for things that’s a possibility all right i’m just

Gonna go in one direction this time let’s pick a direction west go west go west young man we’ll find something chasing the moon here but it seems like i’m getting into the warmer climbs we’ve got a lovely tropical ocean here all the corals so beautiful and now we have a jungle

And savannah and desert maybe we should have gone east instead but we got a little village here oh spooky we got an undead village here and then poor little kitty cat little stray two strays oh i’m so sorry everybody died that’s sad nobody around to take care of the poor little kitties

Well let’s go check out this mesa this looks pretty awesome Got a flower forest here and look at this thing wow that’d make a great pool i love it you can put a little house right here and have a double deck pool two different levels that’s pretty sick and then you can have all this inside area with the skeletons yeah this is

Amazing this is like the cave dwellings that you see in say arizona for example all right that’s cool now let’s keep looking for our mountain i want to find the tallest mountain in the world all right we’re back in a cold climate so i’m hoping we can find one of these lofty peaks

Or snow-capped peaks i think they’re called too they’re fairly uncommon according to the uh wiki so we shall see shipwreck among the ice caps here maybe that’s shackleton’s um endurance great book by the way called i think endurance well the sun is now setting and i think maybe we found something here

We got a big tall mountain let’s see how high we’re going up to one wow yeah this is big enough right snowy slopes snow-capped peaks we made it snow-capped peaks above 170. holy cow this thing is the highest mountain in the world we found it yay

There’s not much up here except for some crazy goats you guys are crazy all right this is awesome oh and there’s a cave here didn’t see that look at this very nice huh and a dungeon there’s a dungeon here what a cool seed so the highest peak in the world

Has a dungeon in it and some bunnies now i wonder if there’s any emeralds in here because you can’t find emeralds in the mountains right let’s drink a night vision potion and then switch back to spectator and let’s go look for some emeralds so they can be all the way up here

According to the uh the ore distribution chart that i have so emerald generation starts about 32 ish and will go all the way up to like 240 and the higher you go the greater the chance that it will be uh generated so you want to look up in the mountains in the higher

Parts of the mountains yeah unfortunately this mountain is pretty solid so we’re not going to see anything flying around this way unless it’s in the walls so we’d have to do some digging i think to find those emeralds but yeah that’s where you find them the higher you are the more you’ll find

At least the the greater the chance that they can be found up at the higher altitudes which is pretty cool so again i’ll put a link to that chart down below in the description if you want to take a look at it of course it is all subject to change

But uh that’s how it works right now with this particular snapshot all right well we found our snowy snowy peak and it’s just us and billy here billy goat let’s go say hi hi belly what’s up bro whoa where you going oh what’s up flipping out about something you mad you

Mad bro this your mountain you think you’re the king of the hill is that what you think oh really not anymore pal we got a new king of the hill king of the snowy peak right here so beat it go off off my mountain scram scram kid you bothered me

All right now we are king of the hill we’re going to get to the highest point which i believe is right here ha ha we are the king of the mountain and i think with that my friends we’re going to call it quit wait a second

Wait a second is that the highest point i think that might be even higher over there oh boy okay now it’s official now now it’s official 215 highest point in the world and i am the king all right well that’s it for now folks i hope you enjoyed this episode

And as soon as 1.18 comes out in a snapshot form on the launcher like an official snapshot i will uh i’ll start a 1.18 playthrough and we’ll we’ll do this in survival mode and check it out all the good stuff because that’s how we

Like to do it oh does that go down there you better run pal so yeah keep your eyes open for that and uh yeah we’ll see you next time have a good day bye bye don’t forget to drink your milk oh sorry yeah it’s gone You
