With a purr, bark, and gleeful squee, countless baby animals have arrived on the scene! Today, we explore the Minecraft Tiny Takeover patch notes, the items it adds, and how you can jump into it today alongside some friends.

What's New in the Minecraft Tiny Takeover Update?

New Baby Mobs

Every baby mob has received an overhaul, complete with new models and textures, while some even have new sounds! New baby variants for squid and glow squid have also been added, with every squid spawn having a 10% chance of being a baby. We offer a full list of all updated baby animals, alongside their pictures, here.

Golden Dandelion

• Recipe: 1x Dandelion, 8x Golden Nugget

A new golden flower has been added, but it is one that can only be obtained through crafting. To craft a golden dandelion of your very own, place one dandelion in the center of a crafting table before surrounding it with eight golden nuggets. The result is a single golden dandelion that, when given to a baby animal, stops them from growing forever. Alternatively, it makes for a great decoration!

Craftable Nametags

• Recipe: 1x Paper, 1x Any Nugget

Added in Minecraft 1.6.1, the name tag is an item that can be named at an anvil using experience points and then applied to a mob, causing the name to appear over its head. Prior to Tiny Takeover, it was only possible to obtain this item from structure loot chests, but now it can be crafted using one paper and one nugget of any kind. How it functions remains unchanged.

How to Install the Minecraft Tiny Takeover Update

Java Edition and Bedrock Edition clients will automatically update to Minecraft Tiny Takeover as soon as they are opened. The exception to this is for those who play on a custom Java Edition installation, which would instead require the latest version to be manually selected. Should trouble be encountered when updating on Java Edition, we recommend trying the following steps within the Minecraft Launcher:

1. Click the installations tab.
2. Click “New Installation”.
3. In the drop-down menu, select “Latest Release”.
4. Click “Create”.

Once complete, a new functioning Minecraft Tiny Takeover installation should be a selectable option before clicking “Play.” As for Bedrock Edition, we offer a dedicated guide here for how to update manually. Regardless of the version, new releases can corrupt old worlds! Ensure backups have been taken.

How to Make a Minecraft Tiny Takeover Server

Looking after baby animals becomes a lot easier with friends! Minecraft Tiny Takeover servers can be created for free through home hosting, but we recommend paid hosting options for ease of use and performance. Especially with new releases, as they can be buggy! Paid hosting is offered here at BisectHosting and many other places around the web. In either case, no less than 4GB of server RAM is recommended.

  • The Darkness effect and world darkening effect of the Wither fight now work the same way in all dimensions
  • The Night Vision effect now simply adds ambient light instead of scaling the resulting colors
    • This means that fully dark areas no longer look brighter than areas lit by block or sky light

Lightmap Debug Renderer

• A new debug renderer for the lightmap was added, which can be enabled using the F3 + 4 keybind
• It is mutually exclusive with the FPS/TPS and networking charts
• It shows the lightmap texture in real time in the bottom right corner of the screen
• The vertical axis of the texture represents sky light levels (0-15 from bottom to top)
• The horizontal axis of the texture represents block light levels (0-15 from left to right)
• The color of each pixel represents the resulting color that will be applied to blocks and entities lit with the corresponding block and sky light levels

World Options

• The difficulty button in the pause menu has been replaced with a button leading to a new screen - World Options

  • When the chat screen is open, specific actions and message types may still be restricted
  • Information about the restrictions (if there are any) is displayed on top of the chat box and above the chat input when the chat screen is open
  • The same information can also be accessed in the World Settings screen
• Chat entries from client actions like taking screenshots will now be displayed even when messages from Players and servers are restricted
• Changing chat settings will now hide all messages of restricted types and discard any new ones
• The handling of chat messages on a published local server is now more consistent with dedicated servers in regard to chat settings

Creative Mode

• Using Ctrl + Pick input as an operator on Players and Mannequins will now show the same results as executing the /fetchprofile command for this entity would

Default JVM Options

• The game now allocates 4 GB of RAM by default (up from 2 GB)
• Garbage collection has been changed from G1GC to ZGC for compatible devices

Developer's Note: The default memory allocation has been bumped from 2GB to 4GB to make the game run smoother and reduce stutters. Furthermore, with generational ZGC, you should see a more stable framerate – especially when operating memory heavy tasks. If you're running Minecraft on a machine with less than 4GB of RAM – please refer to this help article. If you want to change the garbage collector – please refer to this help article. Third-party launchers may not support these changes.

Data Pack Versions 95 through 101.1

• Added data-driven World Clocks
• Added data-driven registry for Villager trades
• Added data-driven registry for sound variants for Pig, Cat, Cow, and Chicken
• Changed the syntax of some custom recipe fields
• Added new block, fluid, item, entity, enchantment, potion, and configured feature tags

World Clocks World Clocks contain an internal time that increases every tick. They can be defined in data packs under the world_clock registry (found under data/<namespace>/world_clock/<id>.json)

• World Clocks can be paused or resumed, and the time of the clock can be changed or queried from the time command
• Format: object with no fields

Timelines

• Added a clock field: a World Clock ID, specifies which World Clock the timeline is tied to
  • This field is required, but to match previous behavior the minecraft:overworld clock can be used
• Added an optional time_markers field, an optional map between namespaced Time Marker IDs and either an integer or a Time Marker object,
  • Format:
    • Non-negative integer, the tick that the time marker marks
    • Or object with fields:
      • ticks - Integer between 0 and period_ticks, the tick that the Time Marker marks
      • show_in_commands - optional boolean, specifies whether the Time Marker will show up in command suggestions
        • Default: false

Time Markers Time Markers assign a particular name to a specific (optionally repeating) point in time for a specific World Clock. Time Markers replace the previously predetermined names that could be used by /time set, for example day or night. Time Markers will exist within the context of a specific World Clock. This means that even though the different Time Markers are defined by different Timelines, only one Time Marker can exist with a particular id for a particular World Clock. It also means that two World Clocks can have a Time Marker with the same name. Built-in uses of Time Markers Some Time Markers are used to drive Vanilla game behavior. Usually, they are configured to not show up in /time commands.

• minecraft:wake_up_from_sleep - the time to advance the dimension's default clock to when Players in that dimension wake up after sleeping
• minecraft:roll_village_siege - the time of the dimension's default clock at which the random chance for a Zombie Village siege to occur should be evaluated

Environment Attributes Added minecraft:visual/block_light_tint Tint of the block light. Block light color starts as dark gray at low light levels, becomes tinted by this attribute at medium levels, and turns white at high levels. By default, it provides the yellowish tint of torches. Bright colors work best for this attribute, with at least one color component being fully bright. The tint applies globally to all light sources visible on the screen. Individual lights cannot be tinted differently.

• Value type: RGB color
• Default value: #FFD88C
• Modifiers: RGB Color Modifiers
• Interpolated: yes
• Resolved at the camera's position

Added minecraft:visual/ambient_light_color Defines both the ambient light tint and brightness. This light is applied to the world at 0 light level. Block and sky light are added on top of it.

• Value type: RGB color
• Default values: #0A0A0A for the Overworld, #302821 for the Nether, #3f473f for the End
• Modifiers: RGB Color Modifiers
• Interpolated: yes
• Resolved at the camera's position

Added minecraft:visual/night_vision_color This color is used similarly to ambient light color. When the Night Vision effect is active, the per-component maximum of minecraft:visual/night_vision_color and minecraft:visual/ambient_light_color is used as the ambient color. Night Vision is not tinted by default.

• Value type: RGB color
• Default value: #999999
• Modifiers: RGB Color Modifiers
• Interpolated: yes
• Resolved at the camera's position

Changed minecraft:gameplay/turtle_egg_hatch_chance

• Now has a default value of 0.002

  • allow_duplicates - Boolean, representing if the trade set can use the same Villager Trade multiple times to generate trades
    • Defaults to false
  • random_sequence - optional named random sequence, determines which trades are generated
    • Defaults to a non-deterministic random sequence

An example trade set offering 2 trades from the #minecraft:armorer/level_1 tag, allowing duplicates { "amount": 2.0, "trades": "#minecraft:armorer/level_1", "random_sequence": "minecraft:trade_set/armorer/level_1", "allow_duplicates": true } Mob Variants Cat Sound Variants

• Cat sound variants can be data-driven by adding entries to data/<namespace>/cat_sound_variant/<id>.json

Added swing

• New command that enables swinging of entities' arms
• Not all entities support the swing animation - swing will still succeed for those entities, but clients will only display it when possible
• For example, this makes it possible to swing Mannequins' arms
• Returns the amount of entities for which a swing was sent

Syntax: /swing [<target>] [<hand>] Arguments:

• target - Entity selector, the entity to swing

  • If the clock is not specified (/time ... as before), the default clock for the dimension is used
• The return value (e.g. from /execute store) from the set and add subcommands is now the total elapsed ticks of the clock instead of the current time of day
• A new rate subcommand has additionally been added that can modify the speed at which a World Clock advances

Syntax:

• time [of <clock>] set <time> - sets the total elapsed ticks of the clock
• time [of <clock>] set <timemarker> - advances the clock forward to the next occurence of the Time Marker
  • For the minecraft:overworld clock, the available Time Markers are: day, noon, night, and midnight
• time [of <clock>] add <time> - adds ticks to the clock, can be a negative or a positive number
• time [of <clock>] pause - pauses the clock
• time [of <clock>] resume - resumes the clock
• time [of <clock>] rate <rate> - sets the rate multiplier at which the clock should advance
  • Note: this only changes the rate at which the World Clock and any Timelines dependent on it advance their internal timers
    • For example, in the case of the minecraft:overworld clock, the day/night cycle will pass quicker with a larger value, but actual game simulation will not speed up (as would happen with /tick rate)
  • A rate of 1 corresponds to normal speed
  • rate is a float between 0 (exclusive) and 1000 (inclusive)
• time [of <clock>] query <timeline> - displays and returns the current number of ticks within the Timeline's period
• time [of <clock>] query <timeline> repetitions - displays and returns the number of times the Timeline's period has repeated
• time [of <clock>] query time - displays and returns the total elapsed ticks of the clock
• time query gametime - as before, the total elapsed ticks within the world (unaffected by changes made to clocks using /time)

Changed minecraft:set_instrument

• The options field now also accepts an ID and a list of IDs in addition to a tag

Predicates Loot Predicates Added minecraft:environment_attribute_check Exactly matches the value of an Environment Attribute at a given position. Note: this predicate requires a context with an origin position set as long as the Environment Attribute can vary positionally. Format: object with fields:

Text components minecraft:selector

• The selector field no longer accepts trailing data after a selector

minecraft:nbt

• Tags resolved with the minecraft:nbt text component when the interpret field is set to false are now pretty-printed instead of being flattened into a single text component
• Contents of the nbt and block fields are no longer silently rejected when parsing fails
• The entity field no longer accepts trailing data after a selector
• A new option called plain has been added to remove styling from pretty-printed text
  • The plain and interpret options can't both be enabled at the same time

minecraft:object

• Added a new optional field named fallback that contains a text component to be used when the object component itself can't be displayed (for example when printing messages in server logs or during narration)
• Objects of type player (player heads) can no longer be used in server status messages (MotD)
  • All components of that type will be replaced by a fallback text
  • Components nested more than 16 times will be discarded and replaced with an ellipsis

Resource Pack Versions 75 through 84

• The Tripwire texture is now rendered as alpha cutout instead of transparent
• The glow particles emitted by Glow Squids, Lightning Rods, blocks being waxed, unwaxed, and scraped are now rendered as opaque, since they never actually used translucency
• Removed demo_background.png in favor of the popup/background.png sprite
• The item model format now supports transformation for individual sub-models

Block State Rendering

• Some changes have been made to the way block states render in places like Enderman-held blocks, Block Display entities, etc. (but not falling blocks or Pistons)
  • The Enchanting Table will now show a closed book on the top of the block
  • Blocks that use special renderers (like Chests, Banners, Skulls) should now respect block state properties:
    • Rendering now respects the rotation and facing properties (where applicable)
    • Beds now only render one half of the model, depending on the part property
    • Copper Golem Statues will now respect the copper_golem_pose property
    • Walls and freestanding Signs, Hanging Signs, Banners, and Skulls/Heads will now have separate models
    • Chests now respect part properties (where applicable)
  • Note: in general, all block states should look the same when rendered on a Block Display as they look when placed in world, except fluids

Block Model Format

• Any block model can now support cutout or translucent (partially transparent pixels) textures
  • Whether a quad is rendered in the cutout or translucent render pass is determined by the contents of its assigned sprite
    • Any sprite with translucent (partially transparent) pixels will be assigned to the "translucent" pass
    • Any sprite with fully transparent pixels will be assigned to the "cutout" pass
    • All other sprites are assigned to the "solid" pass
  • Note: the assigned render pass also implies rendering order: all solid geometry is rendered before all cutout geometry, which is rendered before all translucent geometry
• The format of the textures map has been updated:
  • Non-string entries will now be rejected, instead of interpreted as strings
  • Alongside the previous inline sprite ID form, entries can now be defined as an object with fields:
    • sprite - the sprite ID
    • force_translucent - optional boolean, true if any geometry with this texture should be forced into the "translucent" pass
      • This is useful for example for blocks that don't have any translucent pixels, but use the mean mipmap strategy
      • Default: false

Item Models

• The minecraft:model, minecraft:special, minecraft:range_dispatch, minecraft:composite, minecraft:select, minecraft:condition item model types now have a transformation field
  • That field has the same format as the transformation field on the minecraft:display entity, i.e. either an array of 16 numbers representing a matrix or a structure with decomposed translation, scale, and rotation info
  • For types with children (minecraft:range_dispatch, minecraft:composite, minecraft:select, minecraft:condition), the transformation will be composed with the transformation of the children, except for minecraft:bundle/selected_item
  • Model transformations will be applied AFTER item display transformations (i.e. the display section in model files)
• The transformations for some special item models (types referenced by the minecraft:special item model) have been extracted to item models itself
  • Affected special model types:
    • minecraft:bed
    • minecraft:banner
    • minecraft:conduit

    • 0.0 means the page is in the leftmost position, 1.0 means the page is in the rightmost position

Shaders & Post-process Effects Developer's Note: Although it is possible in Resource Packs, overriding Core Shaders is considered as unsupported and not an intended Resource Pack feature. These shaders exist as part of the internal implementation of the game, and as such, may change at any time as the game's internals evolve. We understand that overriding Core Shaders is used for very cool Resource Pack features, many of which lack supported alternatives. We would like to provide better, supported alternatives in the future.

• The core/rendertype_item_entity_translucent_cull shaders have been removed in favor of core/entity
• The core/rendertype_entity_alpha and core/rendertype_entity_decal shaders have been replaced by a DISSOLVE flag implemented by core/entity
• Rendering of items (in UI and in the world) has been split from the core/entity into new core/item shaders
• The block.vsh and terrain.vsh shaders no longer receive the Normal vertex attribute
• The core/rendertype_translucent_moving_block shaders have been removed in favor of core/block

Lightmap Shader

• The lightmap.fsh shader was significantly modified
  • The LightmapInfo uniform now has two new fields:
    • BlockLightTint
    • NightVisionColor
  • The AmbientLightFactor field was removed, its value is now premultiplied into AmbientColor
  • The DarkenWorldFactor was renamed to BossOverlayWorldDarkeningFactor
• Text and items rendered in UI now use a separate 1x1 white lightmap texture, so the lightmap shader does not always have to keep the 15, 15 pixel purely white
