The minecart's hidden texture face is a leftover from the Infdev versions of the game, where you could store items inside of the minecart (not minecart with chest) and that texture face would rise for every added item.
Fun fact: the effect where you’re inside a block is also used for the screen overlay when travelling through a Nether Portal. When playing the official VR port (Bedrock only) your room position is tracked separately to your in-game position so you can actually view this effect from the outside.
Underneath his bed has a lot of old candy rappers and a pile of cat hair you cant normally see! *me singing in the background as the video fades away so you can look at it*
About the dragon egg one: This is also the case for any block that isn't just a cube or rectangular prism of some sort. Examples are stairs, anvils, etc.
This is due to the fact that Minecraft's engine is... weird to say the least. For some reason, every model in the game must be made up of distinct cuboids. And this isn't some restriction they imposed on resourcepacks; it's an actual limitation with the rendering engine that applies to their models as well.
@@chistinelane Because that's modded, they likely implemented their own system to render that. Plus, that looks like it's rendered as an entity rather than a block.
"How could he make a boundary break on minecraft? surely he's just gonna look on the inside of the world generation and that's it." *Immediately gets my mind blown*
The world isn't generated in real time as you're mining, its just hidden entirely as all blocks are hollow. The world generates in real time as you travel far distances horizontally, yes, but its not randomly picking stone/dirt/etc as your digging around.
He explains it better just after he says that. The way he said it was weird and made it seem like that's what he meant, but then shortly after he says all the data is there the blocks are just not rendered.
yeah if every block was rendered at the exact same time i'd imagine the game would be very laggy the game has no reason to show you blocks directly underneath you because you can't see them it would be a total waste of performance
3:25 FYI, "pitch white" is not correct. Pitch, by definition, is black. Pitch is a black and tar-like substance. So people say that something is as black as pitch, or "pitch black"
Just a minor correction. Backface culling does not mean an object is not textured on all sides. It means that the game doesn't draw the sides which are facing away from you. In programming terms, the game checks polygon normals, and if the normal is facing away from the camera, than it is not drawn (the normal being the direction the polygon is facing). It may have a backside, but it just isn't drawn unless you can see it, which gives obvious performance gains. There may even be occlusion culling in this, I don't know. That is where objects that are blocked by other objects from your view are not drawn.
There is minor occlusion culling, based on the type of object. If it's an entity, it always is generated within the render distance but not rendered during backface culling, which can be experienced in-game whenever pointing your camera a certain way standing near an entity. Blocks do experience occlusion culling, based off of some requirement I can't nail down. If you're underground, for example, and there are for sure no open passages in front of you, only 1-2 chunks (16 blocks each) are generated at a time, at least in 12 chunk render distance. I don't know how thick a wall of blocks has to be for occlusion culling to occur, nor if it only takes affect when the wall is on the border of a chunk. So occlusion culling doesn't seem to happen to blocks unless the entire chunk cannot be seen. Entities only render if the chunk they're in renders, and if they are within sight of the player.
@@piZzaMizzA2004 That's interesting. Still learning to program this stuff myself. I managed to get a form of frustum culling coded with a lot of hair pulling and man, what a difference in that alone.
Backface culling isn't culling the side of a mesh that you can't see, its the part of the mesh that precalculated data concludes is the inside, you could really call it "inside culling"
@@dilute6980 No, it is not inside culling. It is determining if the polygon is facing away from the view, and therefore cannot be seen, hence the term "backface". It is used in optimizing 3D programs for speed by not drawing the faces which face away from the camera, or the "backface". Note the part in this article which says that... "it has been rotated to face away from the camera and will not be drawn." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back-face_culling There's no such thing as an "inside" as polygons only face one way depending upon their winding. If the way it is facing is not towards the camera, than backface culling can remove it. There are settings in OpenGL you can set so that it will not draw the backface that faces away from you. You can notice the effect the best if you enable culling with OpenGL then use wire frame mode, you will notice polygons facing away are not drawn, where as when it is disabled, they are. The OpenGL method still isn't that effective at reducing frame rates. The best way is to determine which ones face away before you send them to the video card as sending data across the bus is the slowest part. You can do that by checking the normal of each polygon and see if it faces the camera before you send it through the pipeline.
@@NeilRoy To put it at a simple definition naturally polygons have 2 sides when they aren't culled, and based on the winding order set in the graphics api, it will remove 1 of those sides and generally this will be the side that faces the inside
A few other things worth mentioning - Cactus has an underside texture that you normally can't see as soon as you break the block under a cactus, the whole cactus breaks. - The stems that melons & pumpkins grow from start off inside the block under they are planted, and as the plant matures the model moves up and changes colour. - There's a very rare bug in some versions of the game (around release 1.8 I know for sure) where sometimes when in lava with a block above your head, the helmet your character is wearing can be rendered in first person view.
Oh man now I know what it’s like to have your game on the other side of Boundary Break. Fun fact: it’s not that the sun isn’t modeled on the other side, it’s that backface culling is enabled (as it should be). If you flip the winding order then the sun will render backwards
One thing I was really hoping you'd cover is how the first person HUD works, like where the model for the player's hand is rendered and whether the inventory is rendered in 3D or not.
I think the body (minus the hand/hands if your using offhand) is not rendered untill you go in f5 mode. That happens for bedrock so I suspect it happens for java aswell
@@ahmed4363 Of course, I'm just curious of the scale of the model itself in relation to other objects, since you rarely ever see it clipping through blocks. Also because it's just been something I've been curious about for years.
6:10 CLARIFICATION: the second space bellow the main textures is the "second layer" skin, used with player textures, its designated "helmet" and "armor" fantastic way of adding depth to a creatures skin, BUT usually only used with mobs or characters that can WEAR things, and since the zombie can wear items etc, like armor, then it has one.
13:22 this is the scariest part of using spectator mode for me. The way it just goes totally dark, even if you're only inside the bedrock. Even the blue above you is gone, and I just get an overwhelming sense of dread.
Which is funny because in Bedrock Edition the void just retains the normal above ground lighting and you can see the sky below/around you. You can perfectly tell what time of day it is. Ig Java just likes to punish people for going somewhere they technically shouldn't be 😆
The only thing that I didn't know that was covered here was that the stars actually have some 3d depth to them. I wouldn't have thought they would to be honest. And unlike most of what you covered, the stars are hard-coded into the game (not made with a texture) it's not like I could easily check this. So thank you sir! You did indeed teach me something! ^_^ However I'm severely disappointed that you didn't cover how the End Portal texture works. I'd have LOVED an in-depth analysis of how that effect is pulled off. I'm quite sad about that omission.
@@ahmed4363 Huh? I didn't mean how the bottom has no texture. I mean how they turn a static texture into that dynamic and cool star field effect for the top of it.
I have looked at the textures myself and the most important interesting part is that the sun and moon have stars around them in the texture. So if you were to change the star overlay texture, but not the stars around the sun and moon, you would see this. I’m guessing that during the day that part of the texture gets culled out.
Hmm… I have nothing to back this up, but my hypothesis is that the portal’s texture is actually an overlay on the whole screen that is a layer behind all the visible blocks… if that makes sense. So it doesn’t move when you move because it’s bound to a certain part of the screen and not your camera.
I appreciate antvenoms input on this episode, which summarised is him basically saying "download cubic chunks bitch". It isanincredebly good mod and is defiantly worth checking out if you have the java edition.
8:10 this white gradient was used until 1.15. When 1.16 came around the devs decided the white gradient didn't fit with the nether so they removed it. The texture is called panorama_overlay and used to be a white to transparent gradient. For 1.16 they reduced the size of the texture to 1x1 and made it completely transparent. If you wanted you could still add the gradient back in very easily.
Personally, I dislike Filmora because of the giant watermark. I was so excited to use a good editing software but when I went to export it I was so disappointed seeing the giant watermark. If I had to recommend a (actually) FREE starter editing software you should download Divinci Resolve.

"the now removed pig zombie in the game" to clarify it wasnt renamed but was just remodeled a little and renamed! they still look very similar, just with ears and a nose now, and im not aware of any behavior changes edit: the parts talking about how the game works are actually super duper interesting!!!
First off, I wanna say, I love your videos. Sorry I don't comment much. I just got into Minecraft last year and I very much enjoyed this video. So many cool things I'd never seen. I especially liked the Main Menu bit. I always wondered about that.
8:09 This is actually due to a texture (\minecraft\textures\gui\title\background\panorama_overlay.png) being overwritten with a 1x1 blank cube by Jasper Boerstra (aka JAPPA) in his texture redo for some reason. It appears to come back if you use the Programmer Art resource pack.
The overlay wasn't taken out in the texture revamp, you can still see it in 1.14 and 1.15. Seems like Mojang temporarily "took away" the overlay to make the more vibrant colors of the new Nether panorama pop out more?
In your segment about blocks being generated as you dig, I'm pretty sure Minecraft actually hides solid blocks between the nearest air block you look at and you. That's how I've always seen it, at least, but I find it hard to believe it generates blocks in real time.
well...i wasnt expecting to find out the menu background was a cube as well! i thought it was one of those dome effects going on or a 360 picture take with dev tools.
The minecart was originally a storage block, and the dirt texture stored in it originally would rise up to different levels based on how much was stored in it. This functionality became unused when the minecart with chest was added instead.
This like someone painted jigsaw pieces individually. Each piece of what you said makes sense. You can see how concepts go together; paintings *are* entities so a spawn egg *should* be possible. Mob spawners sort of just use spawn eggs to do their stuff. But dear god you're lucky that *only* that world got broken by your intense reality breach.
10:50 this would be an incorrect observation. If you want details on what’s actually happening I’ll be happy to explain, might require more space than a UA-cam comment!
it can be explained in a youtube comment: it generates chunks at a time, they are generated as you move into ungenerated chunks, specifically you have to be your render distance times 16 blocks away to generate a given chunk - then as you mine, blocks are revealed, though not generated Though he did briefly cover this right after saying they’re generated as you dig around, the observation wasn’t wrong, the way he said so however was
@@gyroninjamodder yes but he worded it in such a way that it sounds like he’s talking about world generation, to someone who knows how world generation works it’s obviously about rendering, but people who might not be as technical with how minecraft works are almost certain to believe he talks about world generation
As a developer, all that this video taught me was how to improve the performance of my projects, and I love it. Most specifically, how chunks and meshes are generated and rendered in a procedurally-generated environment. I personally am a huge fan of procedurally generated worlds, and I'm currently working on a project that uses a process very similar to minecraft's procedural generation to create these infinite worlds, so it's cool to see all the optimisations that Mojang have come up with for their game. And, as standard development practice goes, I'm definitely going to steal their ideas
Strange that there is no backface culling being used for mobs. Maybe intended so that you are able still still see something in the case of glitching the camera inside.
@@alexsiemers7898 Often it is not about how much it improves performance, but rather that you do things properly just in case. Think of it like making the inside of a PC really tidy, instead of a "rat's nest". 99% of people are never going to know, but you do it becuase just maybe it will be seen and becuase as a human being you care about your work being of a high professional standard. Fun fact: early Steve Jobs had this philosophy. There could be some reason why not using backface culling was the best choice here. There is not real way of knowing without deeping analying everything, or having one of the developers explain it.
Cubic chunks is a mod, the far-lands there isn’t necessarily what you’d get in vanilla. I’m also surprised cubic chunks has far-lands, I assumed they used relative chunk coordinates. Guess not.
The farlands don’t anymore anyways. Ever since 1.8, there’s a world border at 30,000,000 blocks from 0, 0 in all 4 directions. BUT, I saw an interesting video by Antvenom explaining why the world border might be moved to as far as 2^31 - 1 (about 2.1 billion): many bugs that happened billions of blocks out (where you can’t reach currently) have been getting fixed quietly throughout recent updates. There’s no reason for Mojang to fix these bugs, unless they plan on increasing the world size!
@@bazsarovThey might've been talking about the Sky Grid tho? Bedrock was really weird and unique when rendering the Farlands. However there is sadly no longer Farlands and land continues to generate as normal even to the Stripelands (which is interesting to now see but I miss seeing the Farlands officially). A funny thing about BE though that as far as I'm aware still remains: at a certain distance (in the millions, I just can't remember exactly when) away from spawn many textures get stretched out and look hilarious! Textures also start to look obviously 2D
I think this may actually be the first time I've caught one of your vidoes as it's been posted E: I was not expecting a bunch of "yeah" replies or one from Shesez himself
10:42 I think that this information isn't true, the blocks exist in every chunk, the fact that they appear it's only because with the spectator camera you are inside the terrain, the engine treats blocks in two ways, there's transparent blocks (glass, slime, etc.) and non-transparent blocks. In this case when non-transparent blocks are stacked together, and you are inside them, you can't see them just because the engine is not programmed to render the interior of the block, and that's why you can see them when there's air, lava, water etc.
was thinking the same thing. can easily be fact checked by using any sort of block related command to poll/change the state of what he claims to be "ungenerated blocks", and they'll return an expected output
Actually, that makes it more unoptimized. When you have one big piece of model that goes through like it does on the dragon egg here, it consists of two polygons, since it's just one square. But if you cut out the middle to make the model hollow, it instead makes 8 polygons, as it takes 4 rectangles to make the shape that could be just the square. That's how many games do it, Minecraft among them.
want to say real quick that Antvenom was super gracious, very very helpful, and took a lot of time out to explain things and look over what I had to make it a good episode.

Actually completely wrong, it's just because programmers love powers of 2. Terraria for example does not follow this trend
@@LethalChicken77 Programmers do love powers of 2, but there's a reason. All modern cpu's are 64-bit, but their opcodes are usually 4-bit, memory registers are usually also a power of 2.
CPU's could have easily been designed another way, but because of the powers of 2, for almost all purposes, they are faster.
The minecart's hidden texture face is a leftover from the Infdev versions of the game, where you could store items inside of the minecart (not minecart with chest) and that texture face would rise for every added item.
Fun fact: the effect where you’re inside a block is also used for the screen overlay when travelling through a Nether Portal. When playing the official VR port (Bedrock only) your room position is tracked separately to your in-game position so you can actually view this effect from the outside.

About the dragon egg one: This is also the case for any block that isn't just a cube or rectangular prism of some sort. Examples are stairs, anvils, etc.
This is due to the fact that Minecraft's engine is... weird to say the least. For some reason, every model in the game must be made up of distinct cuboids. And this isn't some restriction they imposed on resourcepacks; it's an actual limitation with the rendering engine that applies to their models as well.
@@Igriumwhat about the draconic reactor?
@@chistinelane Because that's modded, they likely implemented their own system to render that. Plus, that looks like it's rendered as an entity rather than a block.
@@Igrium so you exaggerated. The game CAN handle non cuboid models, and some modders even did it

The world isn't generated in real time as you're mining, its just hidden entirely as all blocks are hollow. The world generates in real time as you travel far distances horizontally, yes, but its not randomly picking stone/dirt/etc as your digging around.
He explains it better just after he says that. The way he said it was weird and made it seem like that's what he meant, but then shortly after he says all the data is there the blocks are just not rendered.
The blocks render as you mine them, yes. But he explained it right after so whatever
yeah if every block was rendered at the exact same time i'd imagine the game would be very laggy
the game has no reason to show you blocks directly underneath you because you can't see them it would be a total waste of performance

@Egg T ???
@@Rayan-West Jen the bob
How do i keep finding you in every video i watch.
...except there's a Backrooms mod for MC (old 1.12 was Forge but current versions are Fabric).
Just a minor correction. Backface culling does not mean an object is not textured on all sides. It means that the game doesn't draw the sides which are facing away from you. In programming terms, the game checks polygon normals, and if the normal is facing away from the camera, than it is not drawn (the normal being the direction the polygon is facing). It may have a backside, but it just isn't drawn unless you can see it, which gives obvious performance gains. There may even be occlusion culling in this, I don't know. That is where objects that are blocked by other objects from your view are not drawn.
There is minor occlusion culling, based on the type of object. If it's an entity, it always is generated within the render distance but not rendered during backface culling, which can be experienced in-game whenever pointing your camera a certain way standing near an entity. Blocks do experience occlusion culling, based off of some requirement I can't nail down. If you're underground, for example, and there are for sure no open passages in front of you, only 1-2 chunks (16 blocks each) are generated at a time, at least in 12 chunk render distance. I don't know how thick a wall of blocks has to be for occlusion culling to occur, nor if it only takes affect when the wall is on the border of a chunk. So occlusion culling doesn't seem to happen to blocks unless the entire chunk cannot be seen. Entities only render if the chunk they're in renders, and if they are within sight of the player.
@@piZzaMizzA2004 That's interesting. Still learning to program this stuff myself. I managed to get a form of frustum culling coded with a lot of hair pulling and man, what a difference in that alone.
Backface culling isn't culling the side of a mesh that you can't see, its the part of the mesh that precalculated data concludes is the inside, you could really call it "inside culling"
@@dilute6980 No, it is not inside culling. It is determining if the polygon is facing away from the view, and therefore cannot be seen, hence the term "backface". It is used in optimizing 3D programs for speed by not drawing the faces which face away from the camera, or the "backface".
Note the part in this article which says that... "it has been rotated to face away from the camera and will not be drawn."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back-face_culling
There's no such thing as an "inside" as polygons only face one way depending upon their winding. If the way it is facing is not towards the camera, than backface culling can remove it. There are settings in OpenGL you can set so that it will not draw the backface that faces away from you. You can notice the effect the best if you enable culling with OpenGL then use wire frame mode, you will notice polygons facing away are not drawn, where as when it is disabled, they are. The OpenGL method still isn't that effective at reducing frame rates. The best way is to determine which ones face away before you send them to the video card as sending data across the bus is the slowest part. You can do that by checking the normal of each polygon and see if it faces the camera before you send it through the pipeline.
@@NeilRoy To put it at a simple definition naturally polygons have 2 sides when they aren't culled, and based on the winding order set in the graphics api, it will remove 1 of those sides and generally this will be the side that faces the inside

@thom0530 thom0530 ew
@fizzsoda furries are absolutely disgusting
A few other things worth mentioning
- Cactus has an underside texture that you normally can't see as soon as you break the block under a cactus, the whole cactus breaks.
- The stems that melons & pumpkins grow from start off inside the block under they are planted, and as the plant matures the model moves up and changes colour.
- There's a very rare bug in some versions of the game (around release 1.8 I know for sure) where sometimes when in lava with a block above your head, the helmet your character is wearing can be rendered in first person view.
It's always strange when a single video switches from one voice you know to another that you know from elsewhere.
Oh man now I know what it’s like to have your game on the other side of Boundary Break. Fun fact: it’s not that the sun isn’t modeled on the other side, it’s that backface culling is enabled (as it should be). If you flip the winding order then the sun will render backwards

One thing I was really hoping you'd cover is how the first person HUD works, like where the model for the player's hand is rendered and whether the inventory is rendered in 3D or not.
Probably the same as the menu
@@TechBlade9000 Yeah, I was thinking the HUD itself would be the same, but I'm still really curious about the whole item rendering thing.
I think the body (minus the hand/hands if your using offhand) is not rendered untill you go in f5 mode. That happens for bedrock so I suspect it happens for java aswell
@@ahmed4363 Of course, I'm just curious of the scale of the model itself in relation to other objects, since you rarely ever see it clipping through blocks. Also because it's just been something I've been curious about for years.

RIP zombie pigman. You will be missed.
6:10 CLARIFICATION: the second space bellow the main textures is the "second layer" skin, used with player textures, its designated "helmet" and "armor" fantastic way of adding depth to a creatures skin, BUT usually only used with mobs or characters that can WEAR things, and since the zombie can wear items etc, like armor, then it has one.
13:22 this is the scariest part of using spectator mode for me. The way it just goes totally dark, even if you're only inside the bedrock. Even the blue above you is gone, and I just get an overwhelming sense of dread.
There is a way to go past bedrock lol
It was so spoopy
My cousin kept falling forever and you can see the negative numbers keep on increasing XD
Which is funny because in Bedrock Edition the void just retains the normal above ground lighting and you can see the sky below/around you. You can perfectly tell what time of day it is.
Ig Java just likes to punish people for going somewhere they technically shouldn't be 😆
I remember seeing that title screen change in 1.16 in the code and thinking “oh, we have a gradient?”
The only thing that I didn't know that was covered here was that the stars actually have some 3d depth to them. I wouldn't have thought they would to be honest. And unlike most of what you covered, the stars are hard-coded into the game (not made with a texture) it's not like I could easily check this. So thank you sir! You did indeed teach me something! ^_^
However I'm severely disappointed that you didn't cover how the End Portal texture works. I'd have LOVED an in-depth analysis of how that effect is pulled off. I'm quite sad about that omission.
It's basically the same thing with the clouds that have it's too texture disappear but for the end portal it's always gone
@@ahmed4363 Huh? I didn't mean how the bottom has no texture. I mean how they turn a static texture into that dynamic and cool star field effect for the top of it.
I have looked at the textures myself and the most important interesting part is that the sun and moon have stars around them in the texture. So if you were to change the star overlay texture, but not the stars around the sun and moon, you would see this.
I’m guessing that during the day that part of the texture gets culled out.
Hmm… I have nothing to back this up, but my hypothesis is that the portal’s texture is actually an overlay on the whole screen that is a layer behind all the visible blocks… if that makes sense. So it doesn’t move when you move because it’s bound to a certain part of the screen and not your camera.
@@jendorei thats basically what it is post 1.9, yeah. before that it was a 3d effect.

Dis-respect the dis-respectful Click baiters
8:10 this white gradient was used until 1.15. When 1.16 came around the devs decided the white gradient didn't fit with the nether so they removed it. The texture is called panorama_overlay and used to be a white to transparent gradient. For 1.16 they reduced the size of the texture to 1x1 and made it completely transparent. If you wanted you could still add the gradient back in very easily.

"Reaching the Sun" part is straight up Heresy
First off, I wanna say, I love your videos. Sorry I don't comment much. I just got into Minecraft last year and I very much enjoyed this video. So many cool things I'd never seen. I especially liked the Main Menu bit. I always wondered about that.
8:09 This is actually due to a texture (\minecraft\textures\gui\title\background\panorama_overlay.png) being overwritten with a 1x1 blank cube by Jasper Boerstra (aka JAPPA) in his texture redo for some reason. It appears to come back if you use the Programmer Art resource pack.
This was most likely just a design decision because they thought no overlay would fit better with the new 1.16 panorama.
The overlay wasn't taken out in the texture revamp, you can still see it in 1.14 and 1.15.
Seems like Mojang temporarily "took away" the overlay to make the more vibrant colors of the new Nether panorama pop out more?
In your segment about blocks being generated as you dig, I'm pretty sure Minecraft actually hides solid blocks between the nearest air block you look at and you. That's how I've always seen it, at least, but I find it hard to believe it generates blocks in real time.
You're right, they are culled into existence not generated why did he spread this heinous misinformation
The Farlands have always been fascinating to me. Abstract art created by broken code.
Went into this without high expectations, but was blown away by how much stuff I didn't know. Absolutely brilliant stuff, keep it up!

I was indeed skeptical. "How do you break boundaries on a game without boundaries?" I asked myself. Well, now I know. Great episode!
Really cool that you found some way to still break the camera in a game where you can basically move the camera everywhere
well...i wasnt expecting to find out the menu background was a cube as well! i thought it was one of those dome effects going on or a 360 picture take with dev tools.
it's a pretty common technique known as cubemapping. It's much easier to do with the existing tools in the code
You can shear the snowman’s pumpkin and see the head without having to move the camera
The minecart was originally a storage block, and the dirt texture stored in it originally would rise up to different levels based on how much was stored in it. This functionality became unused when the minecart with chest was added instead.

I've managed to break a previous version of Minecraft by applying a painting spawn egg to a mob spawner.

This like someone painted jigsaw pieces individually. Each piece of what you said makes sense. You can see how concepts go together; paintings *are* entities so a spawn egg *should* be possible. Mob spawners sort of just use spawn eggs to do their stuff. But dear god you're lucky that *only* that world got broken by your intense reality breach.

it can be explained in a youtube comment:
it generates chunks at a time, they are generated as you move into ungenerated chunks, specifically you have to be your render distance times 16 blocks away to generate a given chunk - then as you mine, blocks are revealed, though not generated
Though he did briefly cover this right after saying they’re generated as you dig around, the observation wasn’t wrong, the way he said so however was
He is talking about what blocks are being rendered.
@@gyroninjamodder yes but he worded it in such a way that it sounds like he’s talking about world generation, to someone who knows how world generation works it’s obviously about rendering, but people who might not be as technical with how minecraft works are almost certain to believe he talks about world generation

As a developer, all that this video taught me was how to improve the performance of my projects, and I love it. Most specifically, how chunks and meshes are generated and rendered in a procedurally-generated environment. I personally am a huge fan of procedurally generated worlds, and I'm currently working on a project that uses a process very similar to minecraft's procedural generation to create these infinite worlds, so it's cool to see all the optimisations that Mojang have come up with for their game.
And, as standard development practice goes, I'm definitely going to steal their ideas

Strange that there is no backface culling being used for mobs.
Maybe intended so that you are able still still see something in the case of glitching the camera inside.
I doubt backface culling would even give much performance boost on entities in particular
@@alexsiemers7898 Often it is not about how much it improves performance, but rather that you do things properly just in case.
Think of it like making the inside of a PC really tidy, instead of a "rat's nest". 99% of people are never going to know, but you do it becuase just maybe it will be seen and becuase as a human being you care about your work being of a high professional standard. Fun fact: early Steve Jobs had this philosophy.
There could be some reason why not using backface culling was the best choice here. There is not real way of knowing without deeping analying everything, or having one of the developers explain it.
14:03 oh god not our horrid frustum culling. I touched that code recently. I have a suspicion that we cull too much...
It's been six months, but, the blocks are not generated in real time in the way you said, Minecraft hides the block faces that are not shown.
10:56 I think the blocks are still there in the world files, they just don’t render until you expose them
Cubic chunks is a mod, the far-lands there isn’t necessarily what you’d get in vanilla. I’m also surprised cubic chunks has far-lands, I assumed they used relative chunk coordinates. Guess not.
cubic chunks was created to add the farlands.
The farlands were added to [ Insert idea here ]
The farlands don’t anymore anyways. Ever since 1.8, there’s a world border at 30,000,000 blocks from 0, 0 in all 4 directions. BUT, I saw an interesting video by Antvenom explaining why the world border might be moved to as far as 2^31 - 1 (about 2.1 billion): many bugs that happened billions of blocks out (where you can’t reach currently) have been getting fixed quietly throughout recent updates. There’s no reason for Mojang to fix these bugs, unless they plan on increasing the world size!

However there is sadly no longer Farlands and land continues to generate as normal even to the Stripelands (which is interesting to now see but I miss seeing the Farlands officially).

10:42 I think that this information isn't true, the blocks exist in every chunk, the fact that they appear it's only because with the spectator camera you are inside the terrain, the engine treats blocks in two ways, there's transparent blocks (glass, slime, etc.) and non-transparent blocks. In this case when non-transparent blocks are stacked together, and you are inside them, you can't see them just because the engine is not programmed to render the interior of the block, and that's why you can see them when there's air, lava, water etc.
was thinking the same thing. can easily be fact checked by using any sort of block related command to poll/change the state of what he claims to be "ungenerated blocks", and they'll return an expected output
yep, this decission was made a few years ago to save resources. Before that they were loaded all the time
yes they are culled into existence not generated why did he spread this heinous misinformation. they are generated when you generate a chunk.
The Far Lands give me som serious “Backroom” vibes.
6:58 This model is unoptimized. You can remove the faces (Which I have done) that aren't normally visible to improve your framrate
Actually, that makes it more unoptimized. When you have one big piece of model that goes through like it does on the dragon egg here, it consists of two polygons, since it's just one square. But if you cut out the middle to make the model hollow, it instead makes 8 polygons, as it takes 4 rectangles to make the shape that could be just the square. That's how many games do it, Minecraft among them.

8:16 I think that’s because there’s an overlay texture that makes it look like that, it’s visible inside of the background too.
