[Lava]
[edit source]Where is the lava that is mentioned here? I haven't seen it. --62.65.215.193 16:41, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

- I remember it looking different. Software512 (talk) 03:36, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
[Multiplayer]
[edit source]In the multiplayer section it states that the functionality was "temporarily" removed. It has been 3 years since then, shouldn't it be changed to "permanently" at this point, or remove "temporarily" altogether?

- It seems the now broken link to play multiplayer has been removed.
- If I go to the menu, it only shows "Options...", "Generate new level...", and "Back to Game". If this is happening for everyone else should it be in the history section? Rainiar22 (talk) 02:58, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
Game help
[edit source]This is less of an article thing and more of a help thing, but I couldn't find anything about this anywhere else. In "Bugs", the article says that "The game can fail to load the player's current world and instead generates a new one. In this case, any modified blocks (even air) from the previous map are carried over to the newly-generated map, overwriting any otherwise-generated blocks." This happened to the world my sisters and I shared, and we had done a LOT on it. Is there any way to revert this? 174.59.7.41 16:58, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
P.S. While my PC is experiencing this, I will note that blocks carrying over results in several glitches, including air bubbles plants growing in otherwise impossible places, and floating gravel and sand. -174.59.7.41 21:36, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
- Unfortunately there's no fix that I'm aware of. Theoretically if you could force it to generate a new world using the same seed you were originally playing on, that would do it, but I don't know of any method to do that. Dinoguy1000 (talk) 19:58, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
- Ok. :( Thanks anyway.

Some information about the font
[edit source]As far as I know, this was the exact font that was used in the remake. https://fontmeme.com/fonts/minecraft-font/
The developers has probably used the one from that site instead of directly ripping the actual font itself from the game files
The only difference I have really seen is the anti-alias and the lowercase t, and I have seen this font being used outside of this remake as well, primarily being on YouTube videos bogical (talk) 03:18, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- IIRC the teaser trailer for A Minecraft Movie used the same font...they really seem to be using the weird recreation. Charles25565 (talk) 23:31, 20 August 2026 (UTC)
Multiplayer removed
[edit source]The multiplayer button has been gone from my computer. If this is happening to everyone else, shouldn't it be in the history section? It's probably related to the "temporary" multiplayer disable, but now the button itself is gone which didn't happen before.

Don't know if this means the disable is more or less permanant. Rainiar22 (talk) 00:38, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Yep, it's removed on my end too using Firefox. Hope it's not permanent. Outrowed (talk) 05:06, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
Crosshair affected by lighting
[edit source]If the crosshair gets replaced by a missing texture, it will be affected by lighting as if it was in the 3D scene
Nino3245 (talk) 00:28, 17 April 2026 (UTC)
- It's slightly visible with the default texture as well around the edges I think Rainiar22 (talk) 18:16, 25 August 2026 (UTC)
The clouds are moving!
[edit source]I played this today and the clouds in-game are indeed moving. I feel like this wasn't always the case, because I remember thinking one of the flaws of this version was the clouds not moving as they are supposed to. Was there another update or is it my computer? Rainiar22 (talk) 17:15, 27 July 2026 (UTC)
- If its not just me, it should be in the history section. Rainiar22 (talk) 00:34, 14 August 2026 (UTC)
- i checked May 7th 2019 on archive.org (the oldest one), and the clouds do move, Nino3245 (talk) 20:02, 29 August 2026 (UTC)
Notes for reverse engineering
[edit source]Minecraft Classic uses webpack and webcrack is capable of separating all the game code. Nobody has seemed to catch on to this though, and they tried to deobfuscate the packed code.
There's a few hundred files, most are libraries and it is possible to use various methods to filter them out (typically by knowing the tech stack, which is mostly Noa + Babylon + Howler, Noa depends on Babylon and then using semantic similarity to weed them out). You get around 30 files which can then be manually mapped. There's no good way to edit JavaScript mappings, due to its nature, but VS Code can do it easily by pressing F2, and also using its search features.
Most of the game logic comes from Noa. Multiplayer stuff was handled by a in-house library that connects to various dead Amazon endpoints. Charles25565 (talk) 23:27, 20 August 2026 (UTC)
