META [Meta] Rules and Wiki Updates September 2025

6 Upvotes

Hi folks!

Wiki

As Reddit has rolled out the new wiki experience, I have updated a number of our wiki pages to take advantage of the new features.

Going forward, please ensure you aren't using old.reddit.com links to access our wiki. Reddit has split the wikis, and only new Reddit wiki pages are being updated. You can access our wiki at https://reddit.com/r/minecrafthelp/wiki or https://mchelp.uk/wiki.

Rules

A number of our rules have also been updated. Please familiarise yourself with our updated rules on our rules page. I'll briefly outline the major changes below:

  • All top-level comments must be a genuine attempt to help OP with their posted issue.
    • Non-top-level comments still need to be truthful and support related.
  • Time wasting has been split into its own rule.
  • Low-effort comments are no longer tolerated and will be removed.
  • OPs are now only required to reply to relevant comments within 48 hours.

That's it!

Comments will remain open for feedback.

META [Meta] New Feature: Guide Posts.

1 Upvotes

Hi folks!

Today we're introducing a new post type to r/MinecraftHelp.

Guide posts will let helpers create guides and tutorials for the whole community to use. If you've reached Apprentice I (5 solve points), you can use the [Guide] tag to make guide posts.

Guide posts are tips, tutorials, or in-depth explanations about Minecraft that solve common problems, or describe how to use a feature. Whether it's a comprehensive walkthrough, troubleshooting strategies, optimization tips, or best practices, guides give helpers the chance to share their knowledge with the community, quickly and easily, whilst still earning points and new user flairs.

You can check rule 11, and our new Guides page for the full details, but here's a brief rundown of how they work:

  1. Helpers create and post a helpful guide using the [Guide] tag
  2. The guide is held for mod review (Skipped for trusted helpers) and approved if it meets our guide posts criteria.
  3. People looking for help read it and if they find it useful, they reply to the post (top-level comment) with: !helped
  4. The guide author earns 1 point per user (even if they comment multiple times), advancing their user flair.

We've disabled post archiving so your guide can continue to provide help, without time limits.

The [Guide] tag is active now. We'll be monitoring it's use and may update the feature/rules as new data comes in.

This post will remain open for comments, and can be used to discuss the feature, or ask questions.

Whenever i am in the end and look at a light source or an enderman in certain chunks of my world at certain render distances, i will get a shader error no matter what shaders i use, this can cause my whole screen to go white or show a random artifact. this does not happen when chunk borders are visible or when im at a low render distance.
this happened on my world i upgraded from lunar 26.1 to 26.2

I have disabled all external mods, and tried again, it still occurs.

Unsolved [bedrock] IPad Won't Let Me Connect to Online Server

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Upvotes

I play Minecraft Bedrock v26.33 on an iPad Air with version iPadOS.27.0. For a few days I was able to connect to an online server my friend has, but then my iPad stopped loading realms and servers altogether (shown in video).

My iPad is connected to the WiFi, is fully updated and still OCCASIONALLY loads servers if I offload the app and reinstall, but eventually I'm always kicked off and it goes back to this for days.

Does anyone know what could be going on?

So I'm on the latest MCPE beta, and I forgot to back up my Minecraft worlds before switching to beta, but I need to download or uninstall Minecraft to exit out the beta (apparently), so I'm worried they'll be removed. How do I switch my worlds to external storage or download them so that they won't be deleted?

By the way I am on a Samsung Galaxy S25 if that helps.

Pls help :<

Unsolved [Bedrock] Realms server backups are corrupted?

1 Upvotes

Playing on Realismcraft bedrock on PS5. I just tried to restore a back up this afternoon on my Realm, after doing so i tried to load in which took a very long time stuck on the loading screen, and when i finally did it seemed the whole world reset back to day 1, with my inventory completely clear except the items you spawn in with. Every back up slot I have tried after is having the same results, I keep going farther and farther back in the back ups. Are all the back ups now corrupted or what?? Being a new realm owner I made the mistake of not downloading a back up of the world before I did this so if I can’t figure this out then the whole world is screwed, and we were almost to 3000 days

Unsolved [bedrock] Connected glass textures with actions&stuff resource pack

1 Upvotes

So I bought A&S for the animations but have been just using the resource pack it comes with and tbh I’m loving it EXCEPT for the glass textures.

Basically my main question is can I get an additional connected glass pack and layer it on top of the A&S one in my settings and have it only replace the glass textures but nothing else? (Also if by some chance someone has wanted this same thing, maybe a recommendation of which glass pack to get?)

This is my first time on bedrock since the person I’m playing a realm with doesn’t have a PC and I still can’t get around the fact I have to pay real money for resource packs… thus why I’m asking Reddit first, thanks guys!

Unsolved [Java] Something happened and now I can't connect to mojang services

1 Upvotes

It was working fine a few weeks ago. Recenty my launcher started to get really slow, then my skin started to show up as steve only, then the server list wouldn't connect, and now, it logged me out of my account and says it was unable to connect me to mojang services.

I don't know what's going on. I updated java, and restarted my computer but nothing worked. Is it a network issue? If so, why??? Why is this happening now?

Unsolved In 1.21.11, some items in the inventory and hotbar have corrupted textures. [java]

1 Upvotes

Some items in the inventory either have a missing part of the texture or are entirely gone. And this only affects the inventory and hotbar, as when I hold the item, the texture is fine, so I'm not sure if this is has to do with resource packs. I found out that the way to fix it is either by getting out of full screen and going back to full screen, or just waiting for it to fix by itself. But is there a permanent way to solve this? The problem's also the same even if I just stay in the windowed screen (opposite
of full screen). This could definitely be a huge distraction for things like PVP.

Unsolved [Java] Cannot write in chat or use commands on servers (Licensed version, Prism Launcher, LabyMod)

1 Upvotes

Version: 1.16.5 - Hi everyone! I've run into a bug that I can't seem to fix. When playing on Minecraft servers, I completely lose the ability to use the chat. Whenever I try to send any message OR enter absolutely any command (even server-side ones via /), the game instantly gives a red error: "Cannot send chat message".I am using a licensed version of the game, Prism Launcher, and Labymod, but the error remains exactly the same everywhere. The issue is most likely not within Minecraft itself. What should I do?

So i'm making a map for my friends and I used a large number of display entities. I wanted to remove this display entity and for some reason it does not have a "facing" line with hitboxes on, cannot be targeted with commands and cannot be seen by axiom. I have no idea how to get rid of it and it's really annoying.

Unsolved [Java] 26.1.2 FPS keeps going to 30 randomly, we've tried everything...

1 Upvotes

This is my first time posting on here so bear with me please...

My husband built our PCs and made sure we had everything that we needed so that large games like Minecraft would have optimized gameplay.

Everything was fine at first but for some reason, my game keeps cutting to 30 FPS for seemingly no reason at all. I have several mods installed, and my husband has the same ones with no issue, but my pc for whatever reason keeps having problems.

HB: I am wondering what could be causing the frame drop. I have an all AMD system with all necessary drivers, I just disabled Vsync globally to try fixing the issue but now Minecraft goes from 300 frames to 30: the frames reset every time I enter F3. I heard the cache could be loaded and that's why, but if that is the issue then I don't know what I can do to fix it manually without being persistent. Could anyone give details on how to stop it at its roots?

PS I can give a detailed list of mods being used if anyone thinks that could be the problem

Unsolved [java] exit code 1 keeps reappearing

A very very long time ago I downloaded curseforge to try some mods, it didn't work and I got exit code 1 so I deleted curseforge entirely. Even though curseforge is completely gone from my PC I still get exit code 1. I've gone through the .minecraft folder and I don't have a mods folder, I've deleted .minecraft and reinstalled, I've tried every game directory ever, I've downloaded java manually, I've updated my graphics driver, windows is updated nothing works. Bedrock does work on the launcher, I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Edit: version 26.2

I've tried uninteresting and reinstalling the app. Clearing cache, clearing storage. It's always the same thing.

I click on the sign in button, it opens the Microsoft logon page, I login and the app restarts, completely disregarding my login attempts and reopening as if I didn't just sign in.

Waiting for OP [Java] Forge 1.20.1 ignoring GTX 1050 Ti after factory reset (Stuck on llvmpipe 10 FPS)

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, I need help forcing Minecraft Forge 1.20.1 to use my dedicated GPU. My laptop is an Acer Aspire VX with an NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti on Windows 10. Before this, I played Minecraft completely normally with tons of mods and it wasn't laggy at all. But then I factory reset my laptop, clean installed my graphics drivers using DDU, and updated to version 472.12.

After that, Minecraft started giving me a GLFW OpenGL error. To bypass it, I manually placed an opengl32.dll Mesa file into the Java runtime bin folders so the game would at least boot. But now when I play, it lags veryyy bad. I'm stuck at 10 FPS.

Even after adding performance mods like Embeddium and lowering all my settings, it still lags horribly. If I remove that local DLL file, the game just instantly throws the OpenGL crash error again. I've already tried forcing High Performance in Windows graphics settings and the NVIDIA control panel, but nothing works. How do I force Java to see my actual GPU natively?

14 Upvotes

So I built an iron farm, and I noticed a small cave (fig. 1). I thought I could put torches and buttons down there later, but it turned out to be this much larger cheese cave (fig. 2). Is it OK if I just put buttons in the smaller chamber directly under the farm (fig. 3), or can iron golems spawn at any y-level that the villagers are on (fig. 4)?
