Video Summary: Farlands Nod & Egg Changes | Snapshot 25W46A
Game Update Overview
Snapshot 25W46A is a smaller update focused on polishing the upcoming Mounts of Mayhem drop. The update includes changes to mobs, items, UI, sounds, and spawn egg organization.
Storyline / Context
The video creator references their new Hermitcraft season 11 base, featuring a mine shaft home to copper golems that automate mining and add animation. This update ties into ongoing Hermitcraft content and the upcoming Mounts of Mayhem release.
Gameplay Highlights and Changes
-
Parched Mob Now immune to the weakness effect (no particle effects), likely to prevent them from weakening each other.
-
Spear Mechanics
- Spear attacks (jab and charge) no longer trigger vibrations detectable by a skull sensor.
- Lightning striking pigs can zombify them into zombified piglins, which now have a rare chance to spawn holding golden spears.
-
Mount Behavior Horses, donkeys, mules, and camels (including the new camel husk) panic and run around when attacked unless ridden by a player or mob.
-
Netherite Horse Armor
- Texture updated to match Bedrock Edition, though some prefer the previous smoother design.
- Netherite horse armor now burns in lava like other Netherite items.
-
Nodless and Zombie Nodless
- New UI added to display saddle and armor equipped.
- Shears are no longer required to remove saddle/armor.
- Both survive lava.
- New dash attack sounds and ready sounds added.
-
Zombie Horse New sound added when fed a red mushroom.
-
Parrot Three new imitation sounds for parched zombie horse and zombie nautilus.
-
Music and Sound UI Music toast option now has three states, including one that shows only in the pause menu.
-
Game Splash Text Added new text referencing the Farlands and a nod to Kurt J. Mac’s Guinness World Record for walking to the Farlands in an old Minecraft version.
-
Spawn Eggs No longer sorted alphabetically; now sorted thematically by mob type:
- Overworld animals
- Mounts
- Pets
- Aquatic
- Golems
- Villagers
- Undead
- Spiders
- Monsters
- Illagers
- Nether mobs
- End mobs
This thematic sorting is preferred by the creator for better organization.
Data Pack and Resource Pack Changes
- More data-driven item components introduced, including vibrations interaction for custom skull sensor experiences.
- Resource pack creators now have more freedom with block model rotations (no longer limited to 45° increments).
- An example shown is a torch model with many more rotational positions than before.
Bugs
- The bug tracker was down at the time of the video, so only limited bug information was available.
- Most bugs are new and related to recent development, with nothing major to worry about.
Additional Notes
The creator encourages viewers to check out their Hermitcraft season 11 first episode for more content related to copper golems and musical Minecraft projects.
Key Tips and Strategies
- Use the new UI for nodless saddles and armor for easier management.
- Expect mounts to panic when attacked unless ridden, which can affect combat or escape strategies.
- Spear attacks won’t trigger skull sensors, useful for stealth or trap setups.
- The thematic spawn egg sorting can help players find mobs more intuitively in creative mode.
