1.14+ light suppression by Kayleigh, and further developed by Viktor, vktec, etc. 1.14+ explanation by vktec: youtube.com/watch?v=JtoTAkjpuHA 1.14+ showcase by Viktor40: youtube.com/watch?v=0ZiU_pcmoEE (original credit for 1.14+ light suppression is disputed, the above credit is the result of a best-effort investigation by me.)[10k special] Fishing RNG manipulationEarthcomputer2021-01-02 | In this video I show fishing RNG manipulation. It is 75% reliable on a server I tested on where I have 90ms of ping.
--- Apparently Dream got doxxed while I was recording this, I was unaware of that situation. While it doesn't change the fact that he did shitty things and should still apologize for cheating after what he did to the moderation team, I strongly condemn the doxxing, that shouldn't happen under any circumstances.Oh look, a hill!Earthcomputer2020-09-05 | That's right, we found it! Here it is: 3257840388504953787 (Location: x=49, z=0). (Version: Alpha 1.2.2. To enter the seed in this version, you will need to create a new world with that seed in beta 1.3, copy over the level.dat, and delete the chunks. Tutorial: pastebin.com/CmsEKDev).
Big shoutout to the Minecraft@Home community for making this possible: discord.gg/BfMBHFf
For more info on how this was possible, we have documentation on the method we used: bit.ly/packpng-details

I was too lazy to record approximately 20 seconds of this video myself, so I guess I should link where it came from: youtu.be/Ba1eawYMlYIBranch Mining Bot [WIP]Earthcomputer2019-11-15 | Enjoy watching my branch mining bot do its thing for 10 minutes, while listening to Selulance music :P
To use it yourself: 1. Download and install clientcommands as dictated in github.com/Earthcomputer/clientcommands#readme. 2. Run the game once with clientcommands installed. 3. Copy the branchmine.js script to .minecraft/config/clientcommands/scripts 4. To run the script, use the `/cscript run branchmine.js` command. 5. To reload the script, if you have modified it while the game is running, use `/cscript reload`. 6. To stop all scripts, use `/ctask stop-all`.HashSets pt. 2: PermaloadersEarthcomputer2019-10-29 | How the Java HashSet works part 2. The permaloader from Minecraft is an interesting practical application which requires knowledge of the HashSet internals.
Part 1: youtu.be/y5Cx07OHaOI Gnembon's original video: youtu.be/aeq5GZxRH9s HashSet visualizer: earthcomputer.net/hashsetWhat is a HashSet?Earthcomputer2019-06-20 | In this video I explain what HashSets and HashMaps are, and a little bit about their internals. Having a basic understanding of these data structures is essential to understanding certain technical contraptions in Minecraft, such as 1.12 permaloaders and double tile tick scheduling (including the wireless redstone I showed last year). A more in-depth video on the internals is still to come.

To get one of these books: 1. Download and install the latest version of my client side Forge (1.12)/Fabric (1.14) mod: github.com/Earthcomputer/clientcommands. Detailed installation instructions for 1.14 are in the README. 2. Hold a book and quill in your mainhand 3. Run the client-side command "/cbook random" Or, if you don't want to use a mod, you can copy paste random pages from here: pastebin.com/kREVWL4b . 50 pages go in each book.Redstone Dust Update OrderEarthcomputer2018-11-07 | In this video I explain redstone dust update order and how you can make redstone dust contraptions non-locational.

I invented wireless redstone again! This one works for 1.12, but should be possible to get it to work for 1.13 and 1.14. Explanation video soon.
Huge thanks to Azteched, Xcom and 2No2Name for helping bring this from my initial discovery to what you see now. Also thanks again to Xcom for actually recording the footage since I was too lazy xd
Ask in comments if any questions.[1.9-1.12] End Generation BugEarthcomputer2018-08-28 | An end generation bug, end generator randomizer is seeded only on generation, not population.
NOTE: The bookshelf counting method was changed in 1.18.2! For up-to-date information on how to count bookshelves, see the Minecraft wiki article: minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Enchanting_mechanics
NOTE: The tool's Look and Feel has changed a LOT since the video was released, expect things to be different. Be sure to read the README for up-to-date information
- I missed star bits in various places in the video. You feel so relieved after having completed a difficult section that you forget to collect the star bits. - 1:22 it's faster to do a homing ground pound here. Also, on the underside of the planet, it would have been a few frames faster to do a jump. - 2:00 it would have saved a few frames not to collect these coins here - 3:04 I couldn't find a way to stop Digga-Leg destroying this Digga. I'm happy with this though, because this fight is well-known for its dependency on RNG. - 7:54 I don't know if it's possible to get past this goomba with only 1 star bit without losing time. Also it might have been possible to backflip off the ? block a couple of frames earlier. - 8:26 it is about 4 frames faster to fire 2 successive fireballs if you stop shaking the Wii remote in between, so that's what I did here, though to make it faster the timing is very precise.
Strategies in various places found by various people (it's difficult to find exactly who they are), so credit to them!
TAS videos are not played by hand, but the controller inputs for the game are edited frame-by-frame, making this a really time-consuming process. I would therefore appreciate it if you leave a like if you enjoyed the video.
Due to these videos taking such a long time to make, I'm afraid you cannot expect very regular uploads. If I was working on this full-time a video like this would take about 5 days to make, at least. However, I have A-levels and other things on my mind as well at this time, so the time between uploads may be as long as 3-4 weeks, possibly more. No way around that, sorry :(

1:35 - apparently you can triple-jump over this area which, according to Nemi43, is about 0.5 seconds faster.
3:22 - a side somersault would have been slightly faster here.
4:13 - doing a long-jump-cancel here might have been slightly faster because, to my understanding, the camera will not pan back to Mario.
10:24 - aiming infinite flutter jumps is difficult, even with TAS. It's possible to get straight to the boss arena.
