SCULK Sculk blocks (and all of its variants) can appear in two ways: they generate naturally in patch formations within the deep dark biome, but they can also be created by a sculk catalyst if a mob dies somewhere near it. This effect works in any biome, but the catalysts must be placed manually outside the deep dark biome – they do not generate anywhere else. Sculk blocks cannot be crafted and are used in no crafting recipes. They can only be collected using a Silk Touch-enchanted hoe. Destroying sculk causes it to drop 1 point of experience per block. Although the texture of sculk glows in the dark, it does not illuminate the area around it. SCULK CATALYSTS Catalysts transform most types of block into sculk and sculk-type blocks…

LILY PAD! ABOUT LILY PADS Lily pads are a type of plant block that spawn in swamps on top of water source blocks. They are dark green and can be stood on by players and mobs similar to dripleaf plants, although unlike dripleaf plants, they won’t ever drop you! The only other place lily pads generate naturally is in the wheat farm rooms of woodland mansions, where they are placed on top of the water to allow easy access to the wheat on either side of the irrigation. COLLECTING LILY PADS You can collect a lily pad by breaking it with any item – they can be broken instantly with any tool or an empty hand and will always drop themselves. It’s even possible to break lily pads by crashing…

10 A JAPANESE HIGH SCHOOL Well, konnichiwa (that’s hello in Japanese!). We start this run-down with Minami310’s recreation of a high school in Japan and it’s as modern and clean as you’d expect. It’s also huge, with an outdoor swimming pool, spacious classrooms, and a beautiful mountain setting. Gazing out of the window while the teacher talks would be a treat! tinyurl.com/mcw95topten10 9 CHROMA HIGH SCHOOL As maker Ditchy87 says, this awesome school is an ambitious project and we can all learn a thing or two from the build. It’s split across four buildings: the main high school, library, cafeteria, and a gym so awesome you won’t forget your kit! These are set amid some splendid grounds, but what really caught our imagination is the secret underground area. Loads to…

PICK A SPOT The first thing you need to do is pick a spot for your maze. Deserts are often a good choice because it’s easy to find large and flat areas – building on flat ground makes it easiest to keep the maze a uniform size and shape. BUILDING THE CENTRE Once you’ve decided on a spot, mark out the central chamber with a single layer of blocks. Not every puzzle has to be a race to the middle, but this is a classic design, and an easy way to make sure there’s something cool to find for anyone who ventures into your maze. ADDING CORRIDORS Once you’ve built the central chamber, the next thing to do is start to build the maze around it. At this point, your…

CREATING A BOW Unlike most weapons and tools, there’s only one way to craft a new bow – you need three sticks and three string. This will create a standard bow which does between 1 and 11 points of damage per shot (using a normal arrow) and has a durability of 384. But how can you improve it further? BOW ENCHANTMENTS There are four main enchantments which can be placed on a bow: POWER increases the damage done by each shot by 25% multiplied by the enchantment level plus one. Using standard arrows, Power I increases base damage by between 1 and 5 points. Power V increases it from as little as 2 to as many as 14 points. PUNCH doesn’t increase damage, but it adds extra knockback for each…

BUILD SPECS This month, the challenge is to build a lighthouse! Lighthouses are fairly simple: rounded buildings, several floors high, with a large light at the to p. Designed to guide ships at night, they’re usually constructed on islands a short distance away from the coast. Here are the things your build needs to have to qualify: ■ Several floors – at least three. ■ A large light on the top floor. ■ A striped appearance (to make it easier for ships to see). ■ Some bedroom lodgings for your lighthouse keeper. Other than that, you’re free to try whatever you want! HINTS AND TIPS We made our building our of a combination of granite and diorite, because they mirror the classic red-and-white appearance of a lighthouse but also look…

1 If you hold all three colours of froglight (pearlescent/pink, verdant/green, and ochre/yellow) in your inventory at the same time, you will receive the ‘With Our Powers Combined’ advancement. 2 Using bone meal on mangrove leaves will cause a mangrove propagule to grow from the bottom of the block, as long as there is space beneath them! You can then use the propagule to grow a new mangrove tree. 3 Reinforced deepslate can be broken by mining it for 82.5 seconds, but cannot be collected – even when using Silk Touch tools! It has no current use other than decoration and cannot be destroyed by the wither or ender dragon. 4 Sculk shriekers can only summon a warden if there isn’t already one within a 48-block radius. At present, shriekers…

WHAT IS AN ANCIENT CITY? Introduced in The Wild Update, an ancient city is a vast, sprawling metropolis found deep underground. They only spawn in the deep dark biome at a level of -51 – that’s over a hundred blocks depth from where the sea level is, and 50 down from where deepslate starts to replace stone! Ancient cities are mostly made of up deepslate blocks, although you’ll find a lot of sculk and some wool which were presumably added by the former inhabitants because of their ability to muffle sculk shriekers and prevent wardens from being summoned. The city structure is similar in each case, with a large central area containing a huge frame of reinforced deepslate and long corridors off to the sides. You’ll find many strange areas…

COLLECTING ENDER PEARLS When a player or a tame wolf kills an enderman, it has a 50% chance to drop an ender pearl. The number of chances can be increased by the Looting enchantment to a maximum of four pearls with Level III Looting. Pearls can also be found in stronghold altar chests, or traded for by expert-level cleric villagers who sell one pearl for five emeralds. Piglins have a roughly one in 50 chance to offer 2–4 ender pearls in exchange for a gold ingot. USING AN ENDER PEARL As items, ender pearls can be used to safely teleport short distances. When a pearl is thrown, it will teleport the player who threw it to the location the pearl has landed, retaining their speed and momentum if they are…

Dear Ask Us Anything, Here are my questions. Really enjoying my magazine each month! 1. If you gave an allay a diamond and there weren't any loose ones, would it still find one? 2. How do you use command blocks? 3. I can never make an End portal without going to a stronghold. What could I be doing wrong? 4. Can you get to the sun on vanilla Minecraft? 5. In the End, it always looks like the crystals are on slabs of bedrock. How? Thanks, Jonah, aged 10 Hey Jonah! Thanks for writing in, we’re glad you’re enjoying the mag every month (and twice in some months, naturally!) ■ Nope – allays can only gather the items that are dropped on the ground in the area nearby; they can’t create…

STEP 1: EXTRACTING MINECRAFT’S FILES The first thing you need to do is uncompress Minecraft’s resource files. To do this, follow these instructions: ■ Navigate to the Minecraft Java Edition directory. On Windows, the best way to do this is to press Windows Key + R (to bring up the run dialog box) and type %appdata% then press Enter. This will take you to a folder which should contain the game folder, .minecraft. ■ Double click the .minecraft folder, then within that enter versions, and finally within that folder, find the one which shares the latest version number – at time of writing it’s called 1.19 – and enter that. ■ Right-click 1.19.jar and select Copy. ■ Now navigate back into your .minecraft directory, right-click a blank area, and select…
