So, it sometimes works, and frequently doesn’t (or is horribly out of date). How hard can it be to run on ARM? It’s been done at various points in time, usually by people who toss out a modded binary or some blobs to download, and then disappear back into the depths never to be heard from again. It’s Java, if you ignore all the mobile and Windows Store and console and other “me too” versions. But, the ODroid N2+ and PBP will play fully up to date Minecraft, and, surprisingly, the PineBook Pro is quite good at Minecraft for this class of machine! It’ll even hold a playable frame rate in fullscreen! The Raspberry Pi 4 lacks the OpenGL version to play anthing past 1.16.5. As all those thing are in short supply lately, I’ve decided to clear things up a bit! Nobody is talking about how to play Minecraft on a Raspberry Pi anymore - or any of the other little small board computers! And nobody is talking about how to optimize it if you’re a little bit short on CPU and a lot short on GPU. If you play Minecraft (as I do on occasion), and you run little gutless wonder ARM boxes like the Raspberry Pi and ODroid N2+ (as I do consistently), you may have noticed an interesting gap in the connection between the two. Today is the first in a series of posts about some weird little rabbit holes, and I’m starting out with this: Playing Minecraft, on AArch64 Linux, on an Raspberry Pi 4, an ODroid N2+, and a PineBook Pro! See it in action below.It’s been an exceedingly nice Lent off from the internet - although I’ve not really been taking it off from “computers.” I’ve been doing a bunch of the sort of weird things that I don’t normally get around to, and it’s been rather productive - if, perhaps, a tiny bit pointless. You can then plant your creations at specific GPS locations for other users to find, which is neat. The app allows you to view your surroundings through the iDevice's camera as if they were made of Minecraft blocks. Free to download soon, the new version is expected to help budding coders learn their way around programming.Īnd in fluffier news, there's a new iOS app out now for $1.99 called Minecraft Reality. This version isn't just a port it has "a revised feature set and support for multiple programming languages". It will support HD texture packs and prompts for new updates.Įlsewhere at MineCon, Mojang announced a new version of Minecraft Pocket edition for the tiny Raspberry Pi computer. The open-source API will allow for the creation of plug-ins, which will be hosted for free by Mojang. Outside the update, Mojang gave a few more details regarding its long-awaited modding API, which will hopefully end issues with updates breaking mods. Gamespot reports redstone will now have a variable signal strength, which combined with a new capacitor block made from a nether ore allows for some advanced mechanical builds like weighted pressure plates and pressure sensitive detectors.Īs well as this trap and machine making delight, the update brings better minecarts, a daylight detector, and a bunch of bug fixes. Perhaps the meatiest news is the detailing of Minecraft 1.5, which has been dubbed the Redstone Update and dated for January 2013.Īs the name suggests, the update includes some exciting new uses for redstone ore. Minecraft fans who couldn't make it to Euro Disney this weekend still have plenty to be happy about, with a slew of new announcements out of the second annual fan conference for Mojang's sandbox adventure.
