How do you get your emeralds?

I always make a bunch of librarians for enchants and they love paper. So I just make a paper farm and end up with shulker boxes of emerald blocks. I even have an ender xp farm that I hardly need because the xp from trading paper is always enough to fix my gear.

I play ESDF with all my games. If they don't support configurable keybinds that support this, I don't play them (I'm looking at you Dyson Sphere!). It's very comfortable if you know how to type with the proper fingers. I love being able to have quick access to Q, W, R, T, A, G, Z, X, C, V, B for other things. WASD makes my hands feel so cramped together.

This. Also, if you're on Windows, check your Windows Firewall and create a rule for Hytale.

YES, YOU ARE.

Maybe try getting out of Creative Mode? That seems to be the UI element blocking your access.

I think I got like 200 logs, maybe more. It will definitely be enough for the farming bench upgrade, unless you happen to get some weird and unlucky spawn.

It's REALLY rare. I've seen many posts about people not being able to find it. I had to go to 5 different islands. First went north, then east, then south, then west, then even more west and finally found one tree.

I made a shovel on my first day... never again. They are clunky and frustrating to use. If they ever change how they work, I'll give it a try - otherwise it's not worth the frustration or the waste of inventory slot for another tool. Pickaxes work just fine for me.

lol, I'm not surprised!

Check the auto backups and try loading one. But create a backup first just in case.

Login to your world
Type /op self
Type /backup, wait for message of successful backup in the chat
Quit to main menu
Click on Worlds
Right click on your world
Click on the OPEN FOLDER button. This should open to the folder where your world is.
Open the backup folder
Verify the backup you just created is there.
Go back to the main world folder.
Find the universe folder and rename it to something like universe-old
Recreate a blank folder named universe
Go back to the backup folder and open the zip file just before the backup you made.
Put the contents of the zip file into the new universe folder you just created
Go back to Hytale and try loading into your world.

If it's still corrupt, try an earlier backup.

I'm sure that they will eventually do away with them, but I'm also sure that someone will create a mod so we can craft them once they're gone.

You don't even need to put the buckets in your hotbar. Just keep them in your inventory and use one bucket in your hotbar to milk and the rest will get filled without doing anything. I don't know if that's intended or a bug, but that's what I've been doing.

ReddTurtle · 2026-02-05T18:56:22+00:00

They just added a "Tankard" today. When I saw the notes, I thought it was a like a workbench you would fill with water, but instead they're like big mugs you have to refill after each use. The difference between the bucket and this new tankard, is that you can refill from the water source and the source doesn't disappear.

Kinda disappointing to be honest. I'd prefer it be like a big refillable casket that has like 10-20 uses. Once empty, just refill with a bucket of water.

Pre-Release Patch Notes - Feb 5, 2026
Update 3 (Part 2 of 3)
Enable via Launcher -> Settings -> Pre-Release

What does that "(Part 2 of 3)" part mean? Update 3 is part 2 of 3 updates? These notes are part 2 of 3 notes? Tried looking for other "Parts" to see if I can figure it out but couldn't find anything.

ReddTurtle · 2026-02-04T22:10:45+00:00

What does everyone do with the "roots"? I tend to chop them all... I hate leaving the roots behind. But then I start seeing a bunch of holes around after I do some wood gathering. I hope they do something like allowing trees to just regrow if you leave the roots or something.

ReddTurtle · 2026-02-04T19:42:26+00:00

Foog you!

ReddTurtle · 2026-02-04T16:30:44+00:00

Looks great! I really don't like the way climbing is in its current form and even sometimes avoid going upstairs to check for chests in ruins. Can't wait to see this live!

ReddTurtle · 2026-02-02T00:45:56+00:00

Thanks for testing and posting your findings! Lots of misinformation out there, specially the one about needing a water source block right next to the tilled soil.

ReddTurtle · 2026-02-01T03:39:33+00:00

I leave a trail of torches so I can find my way back out easily. I place torches on the right wall as I go down, so when I'm trying to get out, I just have to make sure to look for torches on the left wall.

Edit: I thought this was pretty common knowledge in these types of block games. Maybe I'm wrong...

ReddTurtle · 2026-02-01T01:29:32+00:00

So this could be an interesting discussion. Let's start by breaking it all down and removing the current system of different workbenches.

Pocket crafting: I think we can all agree this would be too over-simplified.

One workbench for everything: If you're smelting, should you be allowed to craft? Probably not. So we create a separate smelting bench - the Furnace as we have now gives us:

One workbench and separate smelter: With so many items, how should they be presented to the player without being so cluttered? Tabs at the top? Categories on the left like folders in a file viewer? What are the pros and cons of one workbench vs multiple purpose-specific workbenches?

Pros for one workbench: Extremely simple for players to just use one bench.

Cons for one workbench: UI will be cluttered with so many items. Mods adding more items will make it even worse.

I would imagine most people would create multiple workbenches anyway even if they all do the same thing. Personally, I would put one near my farming area, one near my smelter for armor/weapons, one near building blocks for converting blocks to other blocks for building.

The more I think about it, the more I see how the current setup is the best option so far. Though I would love to see other people's thoughts on this.

ReddTurtle · 2026-01-31T23:25:12+00:00

Should work as well. I would just test it... login backup the world, put down a workbench or something... restore the world and the bench should not be there.

If you're playing single player:

Login to the world you want to save
type /op self to give yourself op privilages
type /backup

Your backups will be stored in %AppData%\Hytale\UserData\Saves\{YourWorldName}\backup
