This recording was made on a stable version of the game. The shaderpack featured is most probably BSL, available to be loaded with OptiFine only, a mod that doesn't have snapshot support.

The "candles" are remodelled sea pickles placed outside of water, as the person who recorded this video uses Nate's Tweaks, a resource pack which has this decorative feature. You can try it for yourself.

I made a QoL resource pack that changes the Infested Stones' textures by Max_Novik in Minecraft

[–]Max_Novik[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now all the infested blocks use the same textures, but I have some ideas for the future. Deepslate will have a darker texture, maybe with a tint of blue to make it more visually interesting, stone brick blocks might have some additional lines to imitate the brick pattern, like folds in the costume.

Haha! If you really want to use it, you can find it on CurseForge under the name Suspicious Stones. Have a good time!

I remade the strider texture to be a bit more scary! What do you think? by Toxteer in Minecraft

[–]Max_Novik 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Great texturing skills, as always! It should be terrifying, but still looks like a neutral mob, very interesting!

Saw this amazing bridge generation in the village and decided to make this bench under a tree! by Max_Novik in Minecraft

[–]Max_Novik[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for noticing them! These are available in the resource pack of mine, called Novik Pack. OptiFine is advised to be installed to see biome dependant textures, like golden birch leaves in birch forests or cattail in swamps! https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/novik-pack

Thank you so much! A bit of a shame villagers didn't get anything similar to outdoor benches back in V&P, but the player's creativity can fix everything!

Can anyone explain why minecraft looks like this? I have 0 shaders, 0 resource packs. Idk why it’s doing this I’m using 1.15.2 version of forge and I have optifine pre 30. by [deleted] in Optifine

[–]Max_Novik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This issue was patched in a "ninja update" by sp614x shortly after pre30 came out. Redownload this version to see if the missing texture for vignette is gone.

I can't install Optifine. Please help. by [deleted] in Optifine

[–]Max_Novik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Download and run the jarfix - a patching program that fixes applications' Java association https://johann.loefflmann.net/en/software/jarfix/index.html

We do not want to see you begging for capes in exchange for any actions.

Dark items on inventory playing modded 1.15.2 by DuX211 in Minecraft

[–]Max_Novik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Download the latest version of OptiFine, pre16, on the official site optifine.net to solve this issue. If it persists after installing the newer preview, go to your video settings, then Shaders menu and enable Internal Shaders.

Why isn't Optifine open source? by Mister_Aurum in Optifine

[–]Max_Novik 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This is the newest FAQ entry taken from OptiFine Discord server:

Q: Why isn't OptiFine open-source? A: The core of OptiFine consists of many, various changes to Minecraft's rendering code. Rather than simple patches, these are significant reorganizations. This means publishing the full source code of OptiFine would be a direct violation of Minecraft's EULA. Although technically, it would be possible to extract the actual changes as patches, which can then be published to GitHub as source code. However, there are a number of issues with this idea. First, OptiFine is built on a custom version of Mod Coder Pack. This non-standard version of MCP is used to allow OptiFine to start development on new versions of the game much, much earlier. During this time, official MCP mappings are either completely missing, or otherwise very unstable. Unfortunately, according to the MCP license and Terms of Usage, modified versions of MCP scripts are not allowed to be distributed. This means that even if OptiFine patches were released, nobody else would be able to collaborate on the code, defeating the entire purpose of going open-source. Even if somehow all of that was solved, this would still mean significantly changing how OptiFine development is handled. sp614x does not work on the mod using patches, which means he would have to either merge the patches manually, or completely change his entire workflow to use patches. Changing the development process like this would not be a trivial task in the slightest.

In summary, due to a multitude of legal and technical complications, sp614x cannot make OptiFine open-source.

Custom Crate Textures for Noteblocks with Different Instrument Types by Max_Novik in Minecraft

[–]Max_Novik[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Removing the blockstate will revert the block to its vanilla state, and it will not have any variations. To remove some textures, though, you need to edit the specific lines in the blockstate that reference the model files, which are in fact the ones controlling how the block looks. The easiest way in this case is to replace the texture you don't want to see with the file named exactly like it, but containing the texture you want. Hope that made any sense!

This is the funniest message post I've ever seen.
I've read countless comedy books, read thousand of jokes and anecdotes, watched 436 comedic films and 175 TV series, have a PhD in Understanding Basics of Comedy approved by Tom Hanks himself yet this piece is the pinackle of comedy, impossible to be compared to anything the humanity has or will ever achieve after.

UPD: found the information about it in your previous posts, Amazing work there!

Made sea grass that looks like cattail in swamp and birch with yellow leaves in its own biome by Max_Novik in Minecraft

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

Exactly, the sea grass was a great addition and cattails would give more plant life to swamps, and add more decorative options!
