New Minecraft Sounds in 15w50a

This video shows the new Minecraft sounds introduced in 15w50a, a snapshot for Minecraft 1.9.

When I started this channel, I had a philosophy: no filler videos. I wanted everything to be finished command block contraptions, nothing you would skip over if you wanted to see all my good stuff at once.

Quantity over quality. No unnecessary garbage. Not even proof of concepts or announcements or snapshot reviews.

That didn't last long!

If only they added sounds for ice cracking...

Something oddly satisfying about listening to a Chorus Plant grow.

I agree, its like slurp, slurp, slurp.

Also, are you the same guy from MC forums?

Yes.

Indeed, I think that'd be a really cool aesthetic to add to an enchanting room. Just like plant a bunch of them around the room itself and you can hear them grow through the walls.

Minecraft Version 1.9: The the sound of subtitles update

GoodKingFilms ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 15:48:22 on December 10, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

The game feels more complete with these sounds, the silence for many interactions always irritated me. But there are still many things without sound (Underwater sounds would be great) or things that use the same sound for example many footstep sounds (ice, glass, ironbars...)

But something that I still miss are ambient sounds for biomes like wind, birds, bees, crickets... They would add so much atmosphere.

There's always resource packs (which can change sounds) :p.

That lilly pad sound tho... almost as good as the pop sound when you pickup something

Do the chorus plants actually grow (I assume you increased tick speed if they do)?

ke1234 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 03:39:17 on December 10, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Yes, you have to place the chorus flower on end stone

Popping an item out of its frame sounds so satisfying.

Is this fluffy enough for you?

long, poorly-animated intro with obnoxious music

Hey and welcome back to yet another unnecessary snapshot review video for this version snapshot that is 15w50a. That means 2015, followed by W for week, then the week number, and A means the first snapshot. So what's in this snapshot is basically some bug fixes and some new sounds, which we will begin to check out!

Alright, before we get started, let's see how we get the snapshot. So how you do that, is, so, you open up the launcher. And hit create new profile, here, and then for version, select "use latest version." After that, check "enable development snapshots," and when the menu comes up, hit OK.

So here we are in the snapshot, and we're going to start off with some of the new sounds they have added. The first sound, I believe, is armor equipment sounds, for when you equip armor. I believe it only works on armor stands and when you right-click it to equip, so let's try it out.

spends thirty seconds grabbing armor from creative inventory

Okay, we've got it. Let's equip this armor and see what happens! I'll just right-click on each piece. Oh, it looks like I can't re-equip it when I already have it on, so I'll have to remove it from the slot first.

talks loudly over the sound

Close enough. Well there's that sound. Up next is chorus plant sounds. Let's plant a chorus plant here. Okay, we've done that and now we need to make it grow faster. And if you don't know, how you do that, is you, uh, you type "/gamerule." And gamerules are basically different settings for your world. So type "/gamerule" and then a space, and then "rand." After you type that, you can press tab and it will auto-complete.

Autocompleting sounds--I mean, commands, is a pretty cool feature. So basically it should fill in "/gamerule randomTickSpeed" and then you just type the number you want. Oh, whoops, let's do a space first. Okay, I picked 5000.

finally finishes command, chorus plant grows

Whoops, I accidentally turned off my game sounds.

turns on game sounds, regrows plant while talking

You know, I wonder if cactus also does this. Let's test that by grabbing a cactus from the creative inventory.

grabs cactus, plants it, waits

Hm, that didn't make any sounds. So anyway that's it for this snapshot review. Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe and don't forget to hit that like button. Also comment please. Also big shoutout to my new subscribers, I'm sitting at 5 now. Thanks a bunch guys. Well, see you in twenty minutes for my Call of Duty let's play.

horrible outro with obnoxious music and 5000 annotations

What is that tree thing that was shown? I am mainly a console player, very confused.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ tryashtar ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 02:32:26 on December 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

It's a chorus plant!

Once you defeat the ender dragon in 1.9, portals appear to new areas in the end. An abundant sight in the new islands are chorus plants.

Destroying the tree structure drops a bunch of chorus fruit. If you break the larger block, you get a chorus flower. Plant the flower on end stone to grow another plant!

The fruit can be eaten to teleport (as I also did in this video) or crafted into blocks.

Hope this helped!

I don't think the chorus teleportation sound is new.

Jonah_Simm ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 21:33:15 on December 10, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Sounds we still need (in my opinion)

  • Ice melting and forming
  • Frosted Ice cracking
  • Using Bonemeal
  • Crops Growing
  • A new snip sound for cutting tallgrass, lily pads, leaves, and flowers (it's too intense rn)
  • Actual sound effects for cobwebs (not stone sounds)
  • Equipping an Item to the Offhand

and volume adjustments for various other sounds, such as opening and closing doors/chests, cutting grass, etc.

bamboozlingvideos ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 00:07:35 on December 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

A good sticky squelchy sound effect for when you are stuck in cobwebs would be nice.

jeebro ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 07:40:13 on December 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Just adjusting the levels of the door and chest sounds relative to the rest of the game wouldn't really be enough IMO. They need to be totally re-EQ'd to bring down those ear-piercing highs, or replaced with a different sample entirely.

I'm tempted to do it myself and bundle it into a resource pack, but that would probably require more time to do properly than can afford these days.
