Looking for Minecraft Server Staff

The ArchHive, an Anarcho-Communist, LGBTQ+ run, Minecraft and Discord-based community, is entering a new era of gameplay development and seeking new staff to support the changes. We are restarting our Minecraft world to fully implement the programming, lore, resourcepack, and datapack changes that make our server special. Our server aims toward a vanilla Survival experience with enhancements in gameplay flow and an extensive server lore to challenge the player in new and exciting ways. 

The staff we’re hoping to bring on to our team will fall into two categories; Builders or Chat Moderators. Depending on an individual’s strengths, they will either help us create ingame locations for our players to explore on the gameplay side of operations, or they will protect our community through filtration of content, keeping our Discord server safe. You can be both a chatmod and a builder if you believe you have the time and energy to do so. 

Our staff tend to connect with our players outside of the scope of their responsibilities. We encourage our staff to play in survival with our users in order to experience the server the same way they do. This kind of relationship facilitates more reasonable discussions with them about our authority, and encourages our users to trust and allow us to moderate. This attitude toward power is essential to our team, because as we command respect from others, we must be willing to give that respect in turn. 

Individuals interested in helping us develop our server’s reputation, in uplifting our community and connecting with people who share their interests, can join our Discord server through this page. A direct link to the Builder Application form is here, and a direct link to the Chat Moderator Application is here. 

Additionally, we have a Patreon, which you can use instead to contribute if you have the means and desire to.

Not interested in the additional responsibility of working as a member of our team? No worries! You can join our server as a regular player and still meet like-minded people to play Minecraft with. Our community also regularly plays Stardew Valley (using the Unlimited Players mod by Armitxes on Nexus Mods,) Jackbox, Among Us, and various other online games together. If you enjoy video games with queer neurodiverse people, and if you want to see all of the unique additions we have to offer, join our Discord server, linked above, or through our About page.

Happy Crafting!

Good evening mineblr,

Halloween is here on Parallel! 🎃

Not only are there spooky scary skeletons sending shivers down your spine, but also there are some awesome new Halloween changes that have arrived! Let's get into them:

First up, the entire spawn town has been redecorated to look more revolting and repulsive than ever! Check out dozens of new Halloween displays and hidden secrets (more than we've ever added before), including one very special puzzle by our builder KJwacky that you'll have to acquire some items for...

Next, the Haunted House has made its grand return! To get there, head to the left of the clock tower in the center of the spawn town. Be sure to follow its directions for the optimal frightening experience!

And finally, 10 new Halloween candies have been added! Eating them will give you a random, albeit brief, buff. You can get them by trick-or-treating throughout the spawn town or by killing certain hostile mobs! Can you find all of the candy bowls in the spawn town? Each candy is dropped by one specific mob, so you'll have to figure out which ones they are!

There will also be an all-new Halloween event coming closer to Halloween, but for now, we can't wait to see you all online in your spookiest temperaments!

Happy Halloween,

- The Parallel Team

The Ecto Moog Vanilla Experience

Updated for 1.20.4

I’m the unwilling user of a MacBook Air, and I’m also someone with strong (picky) preferences for ✨vibes✨, and so to play Minecraft casually on my laptop, I’ve had to jump through several hoops to achieve what I would consider a good vanilla experience.

At this point though, I’ve put probably too much time and effort into it, and so I thought to justify that I’d make a beginner's guide to all the mods, resource packs and game options I use, as of February 2024 (1.20.4). 👇

I will attach a hyperlink to any resources I mention :)

Mods

Ok so to start off, yes, I technically I don't actually play true vanilla Minecraft, but the mods I have installed are all client-side, and for the purpose of improving or optimising the vanilla experience. You can find me and a list of (almost) all these mods on Modrinth.

Fabric & Modrinth (Intro)

To mod the game, I use Fabric. I know that Forge has had some… drama? recently, and I’m gonna be honest I’ve never tried Quilt (I will at some point), but Fabric is super widespread, tons of mods use it so it works just fine for me 😁. When I’m looking for mods, I really prefer to use Modrinth, just because I can follow everything and it’s a really well designed website. (I also tried their launcher but I think it needs a little work?)

As part of Fabric, I do have the Fabric API in my mods folder.

Performance & Optimisation

I use these mods are to make the game run better. Minecraft is notorious for being very poorly optimised, and these mods have been made by a ton of very talented people to fix that.

Sodium

JellySquid’s Sodium is the hot optimisation mod right now for rendering and graphical fixes. It doesn’t have the cosmetic features of Optifine, like dynamic lighting or zoom, but it’s super compatible and gives me great performance. Combined with my other mods, at a 15 chunk render distance in the overworld, I averaged around 50 fps. For a MacBook, that's not bad at all.

To accompany Sodium I've also got Indium, an add-on that provides support for the Fabric Rendering API, which is required for mods that use advanced rendering effects, and Reese's Sodium Options, which adds a better options screen for Sodium’s video settings- it looks better basically.

Lithium

Lithium is a general purpose optimisation mod that improves systems like game physics, mob AI, block ticking, etc without changing vanilla mechanics.

Starlight

Starlight rewrites the entire lighting engine to fix performance and errors. Made for bigger servers, but helpful for client users. I think this is in place of Phosphor.

Dynamic FPS

Dynamic FPS can reduce the game’s FPS when it’s just running in the background- useful for a laptop.

Some more specific optimisation mods:

Entity Culling avoids rendering entities that aren’t directly in your field of view, which is much more thorough than the vanilla approach.

Ferrite Core reduces the memory usage of Minecraft in a ton of different ways.

Immediately Fast optimises how things like entities, particles, text, GUI are rendered, by using “a custom buffer implementation which batches draw calls and uploads data to the GPU in a more efficient way.”

I'm not a programmer so I can’t really explain what Krypton does, something to do with networking stacks, but I know it optimises.. things, lowers server CPU usage and reduces memory usage. I’m barely following along with a lot of these mods.

Fabric Language Kotlin is a dependancy that enables the use of the Kotlin programming language for other Fabric mods. To be honest, I’ve forgotten what mod needs this but I don’t want to delete it, just in case.

Experience

These mods aren’t necessarily about performance, but they do enhance the game in a vanilla kind of way, in my opinion. Some of these could be up for debate but I do think they compliment the base game.

Lamb Dynamic Lights

Lamb Dynamic Lights is a simple but thorough dynamic lighting mod that adds light-emitting handheld items, dropped items and entities.

Zoomify

Zoomify is a super configurable zoom mod. Maybe this is just because of Optifine’s influence, but i think they should add zoom to the base game. At least I feel cool using it 😎

To make Zoomify work, you’ll need, YetAnotherConfigLib, a config library that fills in a couple of holes.

Better F3

Better F3… makes the F3 menu better. There’s the option to customise literally everything, you can colour code, shift and delete parts of the menu depending on your use case, it’s less insane and looks a whole lot better.

MiniHUD

MiniHUD allows you to display customisable F3 lines on the main screen, along with several client-side overlay renderers. I just use it for the mini-F3, and I have my FPS, coords and cardinal direction in the top left corner. It’s honestly more helpful than you’d assume.

MiniHUD requires MaLiLib (masa’s Litemod Library) which is a library mod for mods made by masa and others.

ModMenu

ModMenu adds an in-game menu where you can view the mods you’re running and access their details and setting menus.

Shulker Box Tool Tip

Shulker Box Tool Tip adds a preview of the inside of a Shulker box when it’s in your inventory.

Some more specific experience mods:

Bobby is a rendering mod that allows the player to render more chunks than a server’s fixed distance, by loading in previously generated chunks saved client-side. You can also render them straight from a singleplayer world file. To be honest, I don’t often run into this issue but it’s helpful to have lol.

Cloth Config API adds a config screen for mods in-game.

Iris is a mod that makes shaders super easy, and compatible with Sodium. It's down here because I don’t use shaders often, but it’s essential if you do.

A lot of these mods are subject to change as I find better or updated alternatives, and I'm always on the lookout for more 😁

Resource Packs

For vanilla Minecraft, I actually only use one resource pack, but if you’re familiar with Vanilla Tweaks, you’ll understand why this deserves its own category.

This resource pack allows you to pick which small changes you want to add, and a lot of them are really cool. Some of my favourite tweaks are:

Dark UI

Quieter Nether Portals

Circular Sun and Moon

Numbered Hotbar

Golden Crown

The other tweaks I have are: Classic Minecraft Logo, Lower Warped Nylium, Lower Snow, Lower Crimson Nylium, Lower Podzol, Lower Paths, Lower Grass, Wither Hearts, Ping Color Indicator, Borderless Glass, Lower Fire, Lower Shield, Transparent Pumpkin, Noteblock Banners, Quieter Minecarts, Variated Unpolished Stones, Variated, Terracotta, Variated Stone, Variated Logs, Variated Mushroom Blocks, Variated End Stone, Variated Gravel, Variated Mycelium, Variated Planks, Variated Bricks, Random Moss Rotation, Variated Cobblestone, Variated Grass, Random Coarse Dirt Rotation, Variated Dirt, Darker Dark Oak Leaves, Shorter Tall Grass, Circle Log Tops, Twinkling Stars, Accurate Spyglass, Unique Dyes, Animated Campfire Item, Red Iron Golem Flowers, Brown Leather, Warm Glow, Horizontal Nuggets, Different Stems, Variated Bookshelves, Connected Bookshelves.

Game Options

For the sake of the full experience, here's the important game options:

The End 😇

And that's the whole thing! A lot of this could change at any moment based on my play style, but I think this is a really well rounded experience for vanilla Minecraft. Let me know if there's anything else I should try 😁

i m so tired

[friendsvanilla]

From the admin team, we just wanted to share with you some news about a big update that just came to the Friends Vanilla server: a resource world! This was an idea proposed and followed through with a full effort from all of our admins, so be sure to give each and every one of them a special thanks! 😄

Resource World:

That's right! This is a world dedicated for the sole purpose of resource gathering. Some special fun facts about this world:

- This world will be regenerated every 6 months, which will allow us to keep a fresh source of modern game updates and generation available to all players.

- This world includes a nether and an end. Gather all the netherite of your heart's content.

- This world is pregenerated, which should provide a massive performance boost.

You can visit this world by running `/warp resource` or visiting the portal at spawn. You can take anything you please to and from this world; but bewarned, anything you leave during the regeneration period will be destroyed!

In game shots of my new son.

Had some free time today, so did a solid ‘its not much, but it’s honest work’ chill out day on server. Very silly to be running around farming for hours with a baby zombie piglin strapped to your back.
