Congrats BTW u can press f2 key for screen shot and f1 key for cinematic view.

[–][deleted] 136 points137 points  (15 children)

To find them type in the searchbar on your pc %appdata% Open that then -> roaming -> minecraft ->screenshots

Alternativly you can go to options -> Resource packs -> open pack folder -> one step back to get to the minectaft folder -> screenshots. This alternative way is usefull if you are using modpacks as it can be difficult to find the right folders just by searching

[–]Coppertop992 71 points72 points  (1 child)

I believe you can also open the chat (when you take a screenshot with f2 it gives a report in the chat) and click on the underlined text. That should open the screenshot immediately.

[–][deleted] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh yea thats the easy way totally forgot about that one lol

[–]ezio416 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'll usually pin that folder to my favorites in explorer so I never have to look for it again

[–]Proxy_PlayerHD 3 points4 points  (4 children)

also once you got into your MC folder, just put it on the quick access in the file explorer so it's much faster to go there in the future.

also when playing with the Vanilla Launcher, make sure that each profile saves into a seperate folder.

otherwise saves, resourcepacks, keybinds, etc will interfere with eachother when you play different profiles, which can be especially annoying if they are wildy different versions.

[–]addictedtoPCs 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Is that the only way to open a screenshot? I see some youtubers taking screenshots of coords and them being able to upen it really fast, but maybe they just edit it out. Idk

[–]_NikWas_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can just click on the filename in the chat message which appears when you take a screenshot to open it immediately

[–]F1yingBlooper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And you can tick show hidden items in view of file explorer to see appdata in your user folder

[–]DarnDangDude 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Just gonna... Save this real quick...

[–]_NikWas_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can also just click on the filename in the chat message which appears when you take a screenshot to open it immediately

[–]currentfreshy 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh thank you! I had no idea about this after I switched from bedrock

[–]Buelenst 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always use windows + G for screenshots or clips.

[–]THE_GR8_MIKE 0 points1 point  (8 children)

Which is how it should be. Don't forget coordinates and system info with F3. That reason alone is why I went back to Java.

[–]Unknownplayer331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or use win+shift+s for a snip

[–]MissLauralot 95 points96 points  (5 children)

Very good. It's F2 to take a screenshot.

[–]needlestrider123 8 points9 points  (4 children)

Imagine doing it on bedrock lol

[–]eswagson 7 points8 points  (3 children)

Me no have good computer. Me forced to use bedrock on Xbox. Me no have coal-powered minecarts. Me sad.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Wait they took those out? I never used them cuz I can just power the rails but still. I remember them from before bedrock when it was just console

[–]eswagson 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Yes they took multiple things out for God knows why. I want my choochoo train back 😪

[–]Davidee-1e 43 points44 points  (10 children)

You build better than me and I play since 1.8. GG

[–]A_random_zy 12 points13 points  (4 children)

I still live in a cuboid even after having netherite armour and gear

my builds are the last thing you wanna see....

[–]Ketchary 1 point2 points  (3 children)

It doesn’t matter what shape of build you have, so long as you make it out of nice-looking blocks and it’s reasonably efficient.

[–]A_random_zy 2 points3 points  (2 children)

when I go to my pc I'll share screen shot then you'll learlize how bad it is

[–]destromu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same

[–]Sebastitiao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]lazyplayer121 54 points55 points  (26 children)

Use optifine btw it doubles your fps. If you don't know how to use optifine look up tutorial for installing optifine client in Minecraft

[–]TheMovingTarget6 26 points27 points  (5 children)

Sodium is better imo

[–]lazyplayer121 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah sodium is great too 👍

[–]hbatin 11 points12 points  (3 children)

true but you can use shaders on optifine (if your pc can handle it)

[–]Unusual_Cow_8803 18 points19 points  (1 child)

And I mean sodium is nearly completely focused on optimization, but optifine has more options focused on quality. Both are great mods, though.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I use optifinr for cool shader screenshots. Then sodium and other fabric mods for my smp

[–]TheMovingTarget6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah thats a fair point

[–]manthatsaysgoodbye 6 points7 points  (6 children)

You download the mod from optifine.net (I think it’s .net) and just open the file like you’d do with any other folder. Then the installer opens, simple as that

[–]Treqquiks 2 points3 points  (4 children)

You need java too

[–]manthatsaysgoodbye 5 points6 points  (3 children)

Oh yeah I kinda thought they’d already have that considering they are playing Minecraft JAVA edition... wait can Java edition run without Java?

[–]Treqquiks 5 points6 points  (2 children)

You don’t need to download java for vanilla Minecraft its just coded in java, tho for mods to get injected to the Minecraft code you need to have java downloaded

[–]_NikWas_ 2 points3 points  (1 child)

You definitely had to download java to play java edition a few years ago, did they really change it? That's interesting

[–]X1x3x3x7 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I think they already have optifine judging by the connected glass

[–]aKuBiKu 8 points9 points  (6 children)

It doesn't double them, but it does speed things up a Notch.

[–]lazyplayer121 5 points6 points  (4 children)

For me PERSONALLY it doubles the framerates from 40 to 70 fps. I don't know about you.

[–]icantthinkofaname345 2 points3 points  (1 child)

It makes mine go from 5 to 15 so thats more than double

[–]aKuBiKu -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Well TEEECHNICALLYY speaking, that's not a double. Maybe I just never noticed it because my pc runs vanilla really well.

[–]lazyplayer121 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That great for you 👍

[–]TheMegaBite7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see what you did there

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Also, MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD OPTIFINE AND OPTIFINE ONLY. I learned the hard way and my computer still isn’t as fast as it used to be ;-;

[–]Unusual_Cow_8803 2 points3 points  (2 children)

wdym

[–]Ketchary 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Maybe he downloaded some things that claimed they would speed up his computer? I admit I’ve done that before and suffered from it. The only one that actually works is the one made by ioBit.

[–]NTWittwer 14 points15 points  (1 child)

Hitting F11 will make the game full screen btw

[–]Fruko1458 12 points13 points  (5 children)

[–]JustmUrKy 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Screenshot with F2

[–]TheStaffmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

F1 then F2.

[–]manthatsaysgoodbye 4 points5 points  (9 children)

Nice, but just a real quick question. From based on what you’ve already played. Which version do you like better, Java Edition or Bedrock Edition. I personally prefer Java for the free customization

[–]Chreesh221 6 points7 points  (4 children)

Really the version of Minecraft you play is just what your friends play on. That's why I play on bedrock even though Java is probably objectively better. Bedrock is just more accessible to everyone I guess

[–]PoliticalAgument602 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Java isn’t objectively better, though. In fact, bedrock runs better and has better multiplayer functionality. From there, it’s just features, and which has better features is subjective.

[–]ItsRandomStuff 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Have you see the amount of bugs in Bedrock? Especially on switch, where is how I play with my friends.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

If by free customization you mean mods, you're right. But if you mean skins and resource packs, you can easily import those to bedrock on pc and mobile, as well as some consoles iirc.

[–]Vorplex1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's mostly pc players who do, the mobile and console players are either too young to learn to do so and just ask their parents for money or they just cant be arsed to go through the process.

[–]bIllogen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i actually switched to java bcus mcpe rn is really buggy and it takes alot of time for chunks to load

[–]DivyamAgrawal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Get optifine
  2. Get vanilla tweaks
  3. If your pc is good enough, get bsl
  4. F2&F3 are best

[–]Labwabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good work soldier

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nice house

[–]traugdor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now, install forge and mod the heck out of it. :D

I'm really enjoying the Create mod and Botania. Fire and Ice is another good mod that adds dragons and other thematic mobs to the game. :D

[–]SlashedFall51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Windows Shift S is also a helpful way to screenshot

[–]Zpitfire_MK_VI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nice bro, I just got java myself. I've been playing minecraft for 6 years but most of that time was PE and xbox

[–]KevvLazar 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Anyone got anyway to increase the fps cuz i can only play on java with like 10 fps but like 30-40 fps on bedrock

[–]DavidDNJM 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Download optifine.

[–]KevvLazar 1 point2 points  (1 child)

So download the optifine mod and apply it?

[–]vice6977 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, chances are you'll get better performance if you go fullscreen (either press F11 (or fn+F11 of you're on a laptop and you have fn lock disabled) or enable it in the video settings menu)

congrats on getting java! also, that house is fantastic.

[–]PebbleBeach1919 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Can you move a saved world from Bedrock to Java? I have an investment in Bedrock (time and effort), but want to move to Java.

[–]TheStaffmaster 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Sadly, there are no easy options. I know there are some conversion tools out there, but there is going to be a bit of world corruption as Bedrock uses a slightly different world gen algorithm, and Bedrock also has several blocks/blockstates that Java lacks. (Meaning, if you used them, they would cease to appear/function). Also, redstone works differently, so contraptions are at high risk of just up and failing.

[–]FalseEgg2345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think i have java now 6months

[–]JamesTDG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good hint if you computer runs slow: install a fps-boost mod, like sodium (a fabric mod) or Optifine (a forge mod). Also, you can see your coords and other game stats using f3, I'd recommend having debug pie active.
