Big Question for all you users out there.

Okay, in a few months I'm going to get a Raspberry pi 4 (the 8gb model) and I was thinking; "Can you mod Minecraft Pi edition so much it has the ender dragon?" I bet you can guess the question I'm about to ask.

Minecraft: Pi Edition: Reborn v2.2 Adds Sound Support!

MCPI-Reborn is my personal project to modify and extend Minecraft: Pi Edition! MCPI-Reborn is part of the MCPI-Revival organization.

Most of its modifications just bring it up to parity with its base version, MCPE v0.6.1. However, it also has some extra modifications like a working chat and a dedicated server!

As of v2.2, it now has sound support just like MCPE v0.6.1! It uses OpenAL for 3D sound and proper distance attenuation. It does however, require a copy of MCPE v0.6.1's libminecraftpe.so for audio data, but apart from that it should just work.

Launching Minecraft PI modded says "/dev/dri: directory not found" or something

Since I don't know much about Linux, I'm asking here.

I have a Raspberry PI 3B (i think???)

Is this a dead lead to night/day mode?

Hello if anybody is out there!! I’ve searched the web looking for python code able to set ‘night mode’ but to no avail.

Nearest thing I found was this article suggesting installing a MCPE survival map onto Minecraft Pi and through that getting (amongst other things) “night and day modes” https://teachwithict.weebly.com/computing-blog/minecraft-pi-edition-survival-mode-

If that’s possible (haven’t tried it and no hint how you’d trigger a switch between modes anyway) - then does that mean the code to do it in python must be attainable? And if not, why not? How can it present in Pi without being codable in that language? (Pi is my only experience of Minecraft and “coding”, so may be basic misunderstanding here)

Thank you!!

MCPI Revival

Hello!

First of all, this is not a petition, this is just an announcement... We are trying to bring MCPI back!

How? Modding, but we are trying to do a lot more than just using and abusing the API, we are building extensions to the API, a compatibility layer for joining modern BE servers, a Launcher and much more!

Who? A bunch of random people that joined forces to develop this.

Where? Well, we have a GitHub Organization for sharing code, a Discord server for sharing ideas and general chatting, and a simple website.

More concrete stuff? The Launcher comes with a T-Chat patch that doesn't move you if you press WASD, for example. There is a MCPI server called PiCraft, with 24/7 uptime, hosted by one of the members of the community. We host a Realms-like API for server discovering.

Well, I hope someone is reading this, that the MCPI community isn't completly dead, and that someone is intersted in reviving MCPI.

MCPI World Edit Mod

Example of capabilities

I've worked hard on this mod

You can find it here: https://github.com/scratchermatch/MCPI-World-Edit/releases

Open terminal and type pip3 install pynput

once it finishes, open the file and click the green arrow.

It should just work.

Functions:

Cube, Hollow Cube, Sphere, Hollow Sphere, Walls, Center, Replace, Replace Near.

Commands:

Right Shift: Change function

Left and Right arrows: Pos1, Pos2

Down Arrow: Set blocks

Right Control: Create savestate

Right Alt: Load Savestate (This is your undo function. Use it wisely!)

Up Arrow: Change world type. You can choose between Void, short superflat, large superflat.

There is some issue...

Well, I want to start learning python-for-minecraft, but I've a problem. I open Minecraft Pi (I've tried both with the icon and from terminal), and it starts in fullscreen mode.

The problem is that, from that point, I can't make it go to windowed mode. I've read some people saying that F11 or F12 solves the problem, but it doesn't work for me. I'm using a Raspberry Pi 4.

I want to put it in windowed mode so I can open a terminal side by side and start working on it.

Thanks in advance!

Can't get it to launch.

I am Trying to set up Pi 4 B for my kid to learn Python. Not much Linux experience myself. I set up Raspbian Buster with NOOBS. It boots directly to desktop as default pi user.

Trying to start Minecraft-Pi from the menu results in a quick flash of a window and then nothing. If I start it from console I get the following error:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ minecraft-pi
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
Major opcode of failed request:  153 (XFree86-VidModeExtension)
Minor opcode of failed request:  10 (XF86VidModeSwitchToMode)
Value in failed request:  0x37d
Serial number of failed request:  137
Current serial number in output stream:  139

I tried to:

  • give the GU more memory (256) which didnt change the situation.
  • Update and Upgrade as described in this thread
  • Create another user to launch it.

edit:

  • Disable GL driver which resulted in no more errors but a black blank window.

What else to try?

Castel wall help

I am trying to make a section of wall for a castle and when I try and run the code it makes everything one height not differing heights here is my code from mcpi.minecraft import Minecraft

import time

global mc; mc = Minecraft.create()

length = 10

width = 10

height = 0

x,y,z = mc.player.getPos()

def wallSecX(x,y,z,):

mc.setBlock(x,y,z,99)

mc.setBlock(x,y+1,z,99)

mc.setBlock(x,y+2,z,99)

mc.setBlock(x+1,y,z,98)

mc.setBlock(x+1,y+1,z,98)

mc.setBlock(x+1,y+2,z,98)

mc.setBlock(x+1,y+3,z,98)

mc.setBlock(x+1,y+4,z,98)

for i in range(length):

wallSecX((x-length/2)+i,y,z

how would I make a function of set of code run every other time in a range loop?

is it being updated, or should we recreate it ourselves?

This is a simple question for the developers. Will this be updated even slightly any time soon, or do we have take it upon ourselves to re-create the game?
