Minecraft 1.12 came out today, as always Minecraft updates are always good for the server as we do not directly use new content, but rather manipulate the mechanics of Minecraft content for our needs, which means minecraft updates never change the shape of the server, merely giving us more options to explore to create new mechanics. We also had another skin artist join our team (ElvenJedi) and with Keekclipse also back, be ready to see much much more NPC and mob skins coming up over the next few weeks.
We plan on updating to 1.12 when all of our development team is back from finals/holidays, some notable features we're really happy about:
- Parrots
- More blocks
- New GUI updates
- More icons for our custom items
The parrot part is great as it gives us the option to use the mob "fly" behaviour that was not available to use, we have also been waiting for this update for a long time due to the following new music note blocks:
- Bells
- Chimes
- Flute
- Xylophone
- Guitar
These instruments are essential for the music of our time era, we plan on having custom music which plays depending on what you are doing ie tranquil music when farming and action packed music in combat / boss fights and dungeons, as well as different music for our custom regions, for example tavern music in taverns.
All in all lots of great stuff coming up that we can use. Tomorrow our Architect will be posting about some build updates we've done this past week.
