Minecraft Create map from 3D model

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 05:25 PM PDT

So I have a model that I want to convert to a Minecraft map, and I feel like I'm very close, I have used blender to apply a remesh modifier to the model and got some very good results, but I'm not sure if there's a plugin for blender that will export a voxel model to a schematic for mc. Is there another way to do this other than possibly blender? It's large scale so binvox is kind of a no because the free version only allows up to 512 x 512 voxels.

Animal Crossing New Horizons: How to move out most recent villager?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 01:57 PM PDT

My wife has 8 villagers; 7 of which she wants to keep on her island in ACNH, but the most recent is one she'd like to get rid of (and then go on Nook Mile Island Tours to find a new one). We've been time travelling a day at a time for about 2 months and this villager has never once had a thought bubble but we've seen all the other villagers with the bubble. We're seeing conflicting information online on whether this is because it's the most recent villager.

Can anyone confirm whether the most recent villager will eventually ask to leave, or whether we're stuck constantly replacing them via Amiibo cards or natural campsite visitors? Current version of ACNH is 1.11.1 in case patches in different versions made a difference.

Where are Aurcade score rules located?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 01:51 PM PDT

I'm interested in running a Splatterhouse world record attempt at an Aurcade-supported arcade. While I was searching around for strategies and previous attempts, I found the current world record holder's video at

What interests me is this piece of the description:

It's worth noting that this run follows the Twin Galaxies & Aurcade ruleset for score in this game, which bans the use of the double KO tactic on the final boss, which is otherwise the most lucrative option to cash out your extra lives. If this were allowed, then you would have to set up guaranteed double KO's with the blue orb timer, which is something on the order of 14+ minutes per double KO. You could also die to rocks at the end, but if you're on a good pace, the guaranteed route is the best option for consistency. Without the restrictions in this category, scores in the 1.2 - 1.3 million point range are possible.

This is news to me. I found the game on Aurcade and it only lists dip switch positions and difficulty, nothing about forbidden strategies.

In general, where are Aurcade performance restrictions located?

How to advance lower characters in Shadowland?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 10:00 PM PDT

I just purchased Shadowlands in WoW. I have the Boost to 50 for 1 char, but I also have some very old characters, level 27 and 40 now.

How can I advance them to reach Shadowlands?

Steam Streaming + RDP - No Sound

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 08:15 AM PDT

I have a Windows VM that I connect to using RDP. Gaming over RDP mostly works, but there are some limitations - games have to run windowed, and in some FPS-es (e.g. Halo Reach) that means mouse capture doesn't work properly.

So what I do in those cases is:

tscon <connection id> /password:<my password> /dest:console

This turns the RDP session into a console session, and disconnects the RDP session, which in turn enables the Steam client on my Linux workstation to connect and stream games from my Windows VM via Steam streaming.

So far so good, this works great.

Unfortunately, this results in Steam streaming having no sound. Sound works fine when gaming over RDP, but over Steam streaming there is no sound at all. Selecting Steam streaming audio output in the games that have such a setting makes no difference.

The Windows VM has two real audio devices:

  1. Emulated ICH6 audio
  2. Nvidia GeForce HDMI audio (from the Nvidia card connected to the VM via PCI passthrough)

Has anyone got any idea what is going on or how to investigate further? My best guess is that switching a RDP session to a console after Steam is running results in something that results in audio still afterwards going to the now disconnected RDP audio socket, but I have no way how I could prove this or work around it.

I know that Steam was never intended to run in a RDP session, but the fact is that I got very painlessly to the point where it does work just fine, I just need to figure out a way to get sound to work when doing Steam streaming.

How can I earn money in PGA Tour 2K21 without a Nintendo Switch account?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 06:04 AM PDT

How can I earn the coins used to buy new clubs and clothing in PGA Tour 2K21? This reddit question suggests that you earn coins by playing career mode, but the Nintendo Switch profile I play on does not have a Nintendo Account linked, so I can't play career mode. (It's a shared account used for local multiplayer)

This article suggests local, offline play awards money but I've played three local multiplayer rounds and earned nothing.

Is it possible to earn money in PGA Tour 2K21 without online access?

(java minecraft 1.17) tag snowball based on owner

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 09:48 PM PDT

I want to make a projectile "belong" to a team by adding a tag to it. the players throw snowballs that are supposed to only hurt the enemies. Is there anyway I can use the owner nbt data to extract what tag it should use (the tags are T1 for team 1 and T2 for team 2). I have tried detecting the player within a certain distance (doesnt work if distance is less than 2) but that causes it to belong to both teams if 2 people are too close together. Thanks for reading and have a nice day.

Can you get your fully filled map back if you lose it?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 05:31 PM PDT

I spent around one to two hours on a survival server trying to fill in a map (this is early game so I don't have an elytra yet).

I had just finished when I had a sudden urge to kill an enderman. I died and all of my stuff despawned before I managed to get it back.

Is there any way to get back the progress from the previous map without filling it in again by walking around? The server is on Java but supports Bedrock, which is what I am playing on.

How can I pull/export data from a Minecraft scoreboard?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 06:06 AM PDT

I need to export the scoreboard data of a Minecraft world onto a string, JSON or TXT file.

I would be able to get the data from the savefile of the game but I haven't figured out where exactly is scoreboard stored.

I also tried using Minecraft Scripting API but I don't know how to access the exact scoreboard info without commands.

Minecraft Migration Cape Chances of Getting it

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 03:02 PM PDT

Most of my friends have gotten the Minecraft migration cape and I'm still waiting on mine. I was wondering what are the chances to get picked in one of the batches and be able to migrate? I know this question requires some math to solve so that's exactly why I came here to ask it.

How do I run a summon command based on the amount of HP the main mob has?

Posted: 18 Oct 2021 12:06 AM PDT

I have tried many lines of code, and none of them seem to work. This is the code I use to store the health score:

execute as @e[type=zombie,limit=1] at @s store result score @s Health run data get entity @s Health

This is the code I use to check if it's equal to or under a certain amount and summon the mob:

execute if score @e[type=zombie,limit=1] Health matches ..20 run summon minecraft:wither_skeleton -106 80 -30

None of the command blocks work, and they don't even have a log output. How do I run a summon command based on the amount of HP the main mob has?

How to make mobs not attack each other?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 07:04 PM PDT

I'm making a custom boss battle where it spawns mobs to fight for it, but the skeletons attack each other. How can I prevent this from happening in Minecraft 1.16.5?

I am using custom commands to summon the mobs, and I put them on the team EndMobs However, when I tried to spawn it with the tag {Team:EndMobs}, the command output says, "Unable to add mob to team. Are you sure the team exists?"

However, when i tried looking at the team, it said [EndMobs] so I decided to add the mob to [EndMobs] instead, and this time, console didn't throw out an error, so I assumed it worked. However, even if I modify the team with friendly fire off, they still attack each other. When one tries to shoot the player, they end up shooting another mob.

How do I fix Universal Minecraft Editor's broken chunk locator?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 10:42 AM PDT

The Universal Minecraft Editor allows users to edit many different parts of their world, including the NBT of items, entities, and blocks. It is commonly used to edit NBT data of items.

However, the 1.16.100 update of Minecraft Bedrock Edition has broken the editor's Chunk Locator. Instead, the Chunk Locator shows a blank white canvas and I am unable to select a chunk to edit:

UMCE Chunk Locator Empty

If you still attempt to select a chunk and hit the "Open" button, no luck, the following error appears:

UMCE Chunk Locator Error Message

This seems to only happen in worlds that are 1.16.100+. Older worlds will still open properly.

Why is this happening and how do I fix it?

How to force Minecraft to use more ram to decrease lag?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 05:07 PM PDT

I have been experiencing a lot of lag when I play with mods even with OptiFine. So, with my 24gb ram laptop which has intel graphics, I tried to increase the default 2gb of allocated ram. But no matter how much more ram I allocate to the game, it won't use more than 2gb of it in-game. I tried to use the optimized settings in the Intel graphics command center as shown below, but it says I have to run the game at least once. I have played the game so many times already!

Before someone says this is a duplicate question, yes I am aware that there is a similar question here: Why isn't Minecraft using the full amount of RAM? However, he uses Nvidia graphics, which is different than the Intel graphics that I have. Thus, any ideas how to force MC to use more ram in-game to decrease lag (or other ways to decrease lag)?

How can I duplicate and upload an already uploaded mario maker course?

Posted: 18 Oct 2021 03:02 AM PDT

So I'm on Mario maker 2 3.0, and I just uploaded a short course I want to expand on, and perhaps upload the expanded version on a later date. So I selected my course, selected "save as" to duplicate it, but the new saves course says it's already uploaded so I can't upload it. How can I modify and upload the course without removing it from course world or starting from scratch?

Are Productivity Modules useful in Pumpjacks?

Posted: 18 Oct 2021 03:52 AM PDT

In Factorio, when I surround a Pumpjack with Speed Module Beacons, should I insert Productivity Modules or Speed Modules into the Pumpjacks in order to get the most Crude Oil per second?

Can I swap 2 xbox accounts crossed over with epicgames accounts?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 08:04 PM PDT

When activating a game on epic games, it is a little unclear what you are doing...

Hence as a noob and a Dad, trying to setup my kids looks simple. But what they don't tell you when you link your xbox account is that you need to confirm(twice) who you are playing the game as and who you are signed in as in your pc browser, and because I am the dad I am signing in/out back a forwards to setup each child as each child plays the game.

So this is what the result was Dad's xbox account got linked to Child1's Epic Games Account, because when I did the activate on PC I happened to be signed in as Child1, this permantently link Dads Xbox to Child1's EpicGames Then Activating Child1's Xbox Account, I could not as it was already linked, so without thinking I signed in again as myself, which caused the opposite link.

  • Dad Xbox <--> Child EG
  • Child Xbox <--> Dad EG

How to I swap these over?

How can I get the hidden Ham marble skin on Super Blocky Ball?

Posted: 17 Oct 2021 04:07 PM PDT

I can easily look for a video on all the marble skins. My only problem is that the Ham marble (found on the Roblox Circuit stage atop the waterfall) is seemingly impossible to get. Can anyone help me on how to get the Ham marble? I don't have a reliable source for an answer.
