SNOWY WORLD TYPES! | Minecraft: The Journey | E24

I’m fairly certain that tree isn’t supposed to be floating in mid-air That’s creepy and it’s the only way for you to see my face unless we look here in the inventory because we don’t have f5 reverse yet hello welcome welcome back to Minecraft the journey it’s upgrade day it’s a great day it’s upgrade day we’re going to upgrade the

World today yes we are this is minecraft the journey the amazing series where we are playing minecraft from the earliest available development versions and we’re playing all the way through right up until the current release whatever that will be at the point in which we get there and we’re upgrading our world all

The way through so this base area here in Minecraft Alpha 1.0.1 it’ll still be here when we move up to 1.15 or 1.16 or who even knows what will be out by the time we get there that’s pretty fascinating so in this episode yes we’re going to upgrade to 1.0 point 3 we’re

Going to skip 1.0 point to because there is just some redstone changes in that version that we don’t need to go through by upgrading separately to we can just cover them in the 1.0 0.3 upgrade so why don’t we get ready why don’t I get the world upgrading and then we can come

Back and check out all the changes welcome welcome to Minecraft 1.0 0.3 alpha it feels the same it smells the same it looks the same but there are changes there are always changes and in 1.0 point to a few changes were introduced regarding redstone first it’s officially called redstone heretic

Hello viewers this is future bug man here looks like I got a bit confused about which version the redstone got renamed it’s actually alfa 1.0 point four so just forget everything I said about redstone being renamed here and let’s carry on like nothing ever happened

Hey it actually has a name we don’t have to call it red or dust or red or or red red or torches can just call it redstone that’s great one of the biggest changes was that if you walk over redstone now it won’t pop off the blocks like it did before

Because how annoying would that be if that was its intended behavior right the second is that if you have redstone with a signal it will now make particles which looks pretty cool yeah that’s a new thing and so with redstone because we have to learn about it as the game goes on I

Wanted to make sure that we went through a few of the different logic gates that redstone gives us that we’re going to have to use in farms and things like that because we’ll build all sorts of crazy things right we will be building sorting systems and farms and all sorts

Of other stuff to make this world crazy and learn about all of the new features as they come in so with redstone it’s important we understand some of the ground rules so let’s learn about it first this is what we call let’s call it be on/off gate it’s pretty simple you

Just it works like a light switch it’s off currently and when you turn on it receives power and that in turn powers the door opens the door in this case hey so it’s simple off yes off on pretty straight further this one is what we

Call a not gate and a not gate basically inverts the signal of whatever input it receives so at the moment this torch is powering this redstone because it’s receiving no power through this block in this case the switch is off which is why we have no power so if we turn the

Switch on we have power it goes into this block the torch inverts the signal that it receives on turns to off and thus the door is unpowered so if we just do that again and turn it off you can see that the redstone signal is inverted

And it becomes on this one is called an or gate and basically this means that this door will be powered if it receives an input from either here or here or both at the same time basically what’s happening is the lever powers the block and that powers the redstone and the

Door and that means that if you power it from either side one or the other or both then that block is receiving power and that results in that door being powered now this one is called the end gate and we can use all of the stuff we’ve learned about those other ones in

Combination with this and gate so the and gate is all about providing signal output only when both of the inputs are providing power this is done by inverting the signal from this dust in the middle here which will always be on unless both of these torches are off so

As long as this dust is receiving power from either torch it will stay on and this torch in the front here will invert that signal causing it to be off to be and make this door unpowered so if I head over here and turn on just one of

The levers that results in power going into this block which turns off this torch but this is still turned on because this torch is still providing power so because this dust is still on the redstone torch inverts the signal and we have no power to the door

So only one lever turned on means no power to the door but if I turn on both levers together you can see that the door is open fair and that is because this block is providing power to this block this torch is off this block is providing power to this torch and that

Results in no power being given to this redstone dust and because that redstone dust has no power this torch in the front inverts the signal and that results in power being applied to the door Halla hey no let’s celebrate we’ve learned something about and gates it’s getting to be nighttime and that’s good

For us because there have been some changes to the mobs now I saw a couple of mobs around here I’m going to head over there I see you I see a creeper in here they have added mob sounds so let’s go up and see of each of the mob types

What these new sounds sound like that’s a creepy hiss and to be honest I haven’t had a creeper blow up on me for a while so I don’t know if that was a new sound torrent old sound but I’m going to head out here and see what else I can find

Hello oh oh that’s nasty you seem pleased oh hell no you seem to be stuck in a hole no oh oh no no no okay well there’s that death noise as well from from the spider which is kind of refreshing to hear it makes me feel like I’m playing Minecraft again what was

That was that an idle music sound effect or cave noise or something I hadn’t got to that yet but one of the other noises they’ve added to the game is is ambient cave sounds so maybe that was it I’m not sure we’re going to have to head

Into some caves later and find out do you remember in episode 10 when we started out on this new world just how impossibly difficult it was to do anything at nighttime because of the sheer number of mobs now I know in modern day Minecraft if you were to

Stand up on a hill like this and just look out into a field you would see mobs popping up all over the field and they would be navigable but annoying but in this version they are really just so few and far between you’re a sheep you don’t

Count no it’s really hard to find mobs now I’m just gonna have to keep wandering around until I stumble across something before the Sun comes up it’s anybody out there anything hello there’s not a single mob in sight I’m all alone oh what’s that what is that jingle jangle in I

Definitely hear something oh yeah it’s nearby we’ll find it I feel like it’s definitely closer it sounds like somebody’s dragging a broken xylophone across the cave floor oh look at that oh oh oh it’s skeletons of course it’s skeletons ah we’ve just uncovered ourselves another spawner that’s good news for us hmm

Now how to make this secure without dying ah let’s go down this way try and get around the back of it then we will figure out where the entrance is and secure it okay oh oh that thing nearly killed me okay let’s get some more food

Out here just in case we need it I like to have let’s have that in number nine and gets me food down there okay let’s try and figure out what it is we are dealing with here right I see you there that’s oh listen to your noise huh okay

It’s quite far away it’s out of my reach I need blocks I need blocks mmm let’s see what we can do okay I’m gonna take a couple of risks I think too bad ah ha ha ha now is there anything that escaped that’s the problem it looks safe it

Looks safe who knows what’s down there let’s let’s make that safe okay that looks safe to me we’ve got ourselves a skeleton spawner Wow Yeah do the work for me that’s the way Our arrows flying everywhere we’ve got some light in there now so it should be a little bit more safe trying to get some more in there without dying my armor is just no good these three they need to die let’s get rid come here you

Can see me no no I want it to pass fine to me oh I’ve got a bow and arrow it was easy okay let’s stick some more lights in there I think we are looking better I’m gonna open that up now and just oh I thought that was a skillet man boom boom

Boom okay this looks pretty good to me oh look at that chest it’s just full of arrows okay let’s see what treasures we got oh wait bucket gunpowder string okay let’s get these arrows though I’ll have those let’s have a look in number two bread

I’ll eat that and some wheat which I can just turn into more bread there was one more over here wasn’t they up for more okay okay so the rewards for that weren’t so great but we do know now the location of another spawner so what I’m

Going to do is I’m gonna dig up to the surface from where we are and I’m going to mark this on the map or on the on the surface so I know in the future exactly where it is we can maybe do something with this down the road oh that looks weird

Adding these mob sounds was such an improvement I mean before that you could just hear mobs walking around on the ground then he really didn’t know what was what but now you can hear the different sound effects and you know exactly what’s nearby like you the pesky

Thing get out of it I still haven’t found a zombie that’s the one last one that I’m looking for so I think I’ll wait till nighttime it’s nearly dusk there you go it’s dusk officially dusk and see what I can find around the base here literally devoid of all life I

Don’t understand where all the mobs are really I don’t but I want to move on from this because I don’t want to just roam around outside in the nighttime forever in a day I will find a zombie and we will hear the noise that it makes I’m sure we will

I’m going to head back to base now and then we’re going to upgrade our world to the next update of Minecraft alpha one point zero point four will you look at that fancy new animated splash screen Wow let’s jump into our world here we are minecraft alpha version 1.0 0.4 and this

Is the secret Friday update number four the secret Friday updates were the updates that notch would put out on a Friday where he wouldn’t talk about what had gone into the release he would put in all of these secret features that players just had to discover on their

Own and there is one of those features that we’re gonna look at in a minute but first let’s talk about a couple of the basic changes earlier in this episode I made the mistaken impression that redstone had changed its names in 1.0 point throwing or something like that

But actually it changes in 1.0 point for this version so this is the official version in which redstone is now officially known as redstone Thank You Peggy yes okay so now that we’ve got that out of the way there’s one more little thing that we need to look at

Inside the house where we have that handy dandy minecart track first things first the minecart no longer has a chest inside that looks much better if you ask me and now for my next trick if I just hop inside this minecart and hop into f5 mode look at that we

Have the player sitting model so the player now has a sitting model whenever it’s inside of a minecart or when it’s riding a pig I do have a saddle and I could write a pig but I think that in order to get the saddle back you still

Have to kill the pig and lose the saddle so I’m not willing to give up my saddle just yet but it looks like if I push forward nothing happens I still can’t steer the minecart so if I pick that up let’s try and do this in f5 mode this

Might be tricky oh no oh come back come back take two let’s try that again now if I line myself up so that I’ve got the minecart there and jump inside woohoo look at us oh that’s a bit flashy isn’t it I’m trying to get a good view but I

Really can’t I really can’t see my face I really don’t like this I would like to be able to see my own face anyway let’s get out of this thing we’ve got a couple of other things to look at for this new feature we’ve had to come back to the

Main menu we’re going to have to create a brand new world because there is now a 1 in 4 chance of your new world being snowy so let’s create a new world and see what happens hmm looks like a fail also it looks like the game is frozen we did it look at

That snowy world oh wow ah I wonder how this looks on YouTube it looks perfectly fine here but you know how snow and particles works on compress two YouTube videos oh dear oh no that’s the sunrise that’s good I thought it was going to set for a minute there wow look at this

Ice block it’s super slippery I’m running across right now and I’m feeling that if I just let go of that the forward key you can see how I have a little bit more forward momentum it’s not terribly slippery but it’s just little bit more slippery so let’s let’s

Break that now what I understand of this version is that what are blocks that are exposed to snow should turn back to ice falling snow that is so if we just watch this for a while it should all go back to ice there we go two have formed back into

Ice so definitely these water source blocks are forming back to ice when they’re exposed to the falling snow but I was just sitting here having a look at the snow and I don’t really know how well it comes out on YouTube but if you look really closely as the snow hits the

Ice the particle kind of disappears into the ice it’s a really nice effect but also the snow doesn’t settle until it turns into these things which is snow layers so I think if I pick this up yeah that’s just grass well that’s no good I was hoping again a

Snowball or something but I don’t think that they’ve been introduced to the game let’s just pop up here and take in the majesty of a snow world look at you look at you little animals having fun you’ve got your little ice skates on and off you go yeah it is quite lovely really

It’s it’s very very bright but the downside is that this entire world is like this just completely and utterly covered in snow but maybe this was the game developments first attempt at weather systems or biomes or who knows what they were thinking about when they decided to do a snowy world one effect

Of the snow here is that everything definitely feels a lot more bright I don’t know if any of you have lived in the snow or been to the snow but if you go to sleep when it hasn’t been snowing and then you wake up the next morning and everything’s covered in a beautiful

Layer of fluffy white snow then you know that everything is bright you know it should be dark and gloomy because it’s the middle of winter or something like that but actually everything’s really bright because that snow is reflecting all of the light available to it I guess

In this game we’ve got only consistent light coming from that Sun but you still get the same effect even here in Minecraft so cold huh I’ve been out here too long and I wasn’t dressed for this cold weather oh I’m so glad that we came and

Experienced all of this snow but I’ll be glad to get back to our nice warm cozy alpha world Oh sooner rather than later oh but I have to do that next time because for now we’ve run out of time in this episode I want to say thank you so much for joining me

Exploring minecraft alpha and seeing this amazing snowy biome that you can only get in every 25% of random games that you load up on random new worlds that you load up so I don’t suppose we’ll be seeing this for a while yet in our current alpha world but it is here
