I Built a WORKING TV in Minecraft Vanilla

wait what yes every Minecraft player has thought about having a working television in their base at some point well why can't we I've made drivable Vehicles realistic terrain and even built outside of the build limit before so let's see if it's possible to make a working TV in vanilla Minecraft without using any mod the first thing I decided to do was figure out how to make pixels for a screen this wasn't really possible in the past but luckily for us moang recently added the new block display entities to Minecraft if you haven't seen these yet they're spawnable entities you can give animations to that allow you to make some crazy stuff in Minecraft that looks modded I genuinely don't understand why I'm the only one that ever talks about these like they're one of the coolest entities ever added to Minecraft I don't know why these aren't everywhere anyways I decided to write a plugin that spawns thousands of these block displays in really tiny rows to resemble pixels on a screen but then I realized something if I want to use block displays for pixels on a a screen the screen pixels would only be limited to the block colors that are in Minecraft so for example if I wanted a pixel to be stupid purple I'd have to settle for the closest Minecraft block to stupid purple and if there isn't one that's very close to stupid purple then the TV will just look weird like my uncle raisin so the next thing I did was start crying for quite a while it was actually a very long time I cried for just hours but then I remembered something my garlic bread was ready but then I remembered something else block displays weren't the only display entities added to Minecraft recently wow text displays are basically the same entities that show you your player name tag above your head but with a bunch more settings you can change after getting this new idea I recoded the previous plugin to now create long rows of text displays full of square Unicode characters but um I made a little too many of them so I had to shrink it down a ton and retry it and uh the resolution is much smaller now and doesn't light my computer on fire of course it took a bit of adjusting but when I finally felt like I understood it I moved on to the real challenge which was getting the screen to print an image oh boy but first it's almost Christmas and I really want the funny Walmart cookies so this

computer say this one sure and my plugin will go pixel by pixel on this image and copy the exact color onto each character in the text display screen in Minecraft okay guys this should be a big one so let's turn off the TV reload the plugin and now if we turn it on it should show my screen I kind of there's things here I don't know why all the colors are like inverted or something it's like really strange and it's like sideways but like you can tell like if you rotated it to the left that that's that's my screen that's that's the plugin right there okay guys it's officially 480p and um my computer is not doing too hot but it's it's there it's it's there okay now that thing's fully coed so it should shrink down the whatever image I'm using to fit to this little display we have and that looks right that looks like code now of course it's very small and blurry but but I mean you saw what happened when I made it bigger than that okay I think I found a winner for the size I really like this it's all centered on the Block and everything and then look at this like if I zoom all the way in there's like almost no overlap between the rows aside from like the background like the actual pixels don't overlap like they're all like kind of perfect I think it's like just random colors that are nowhere near similar to what like the clouds are rainbow how are the clouds rainbow okay I wasn't recording I was just testing things and suddenly I fixed all the colors so yay look at this it's my screen so what I'm doing is um let me turn off the TV and turn it back on um it like generates this little screen like this based on what my current screen's doing so like if I move Minecraft to my main Monitor and we turn off the TV and turn it back on it should refresh with yeah my screenshot of what my game looks like which is crazy first of all this is ridiculous but what if I automated it to do it on its own all the time yay look at that oh wait it stopped oh no it didn't okay it's just kind of slow but I purposely made it slow so it didn't lag so let's see what it's like if I increase the update or the refresh rate of the thing it was set to 10 tick delay now it has one but here's the fun part because now if I do SpongeBob episode and then and then I click SpongeBob episode I am now watching SpongeBob in Minecraft look at this this is really crazy I am in vanilla M I have well I was going to say I don't have no mods installed I do have mods installed but they're not for this like this Zoom this Zoom is a mod I I need these mods but look I'm just watching SpongeBob in Minecraft it's me there I am I'm so tiny I'm so tiny do you want to be in Minecraft yeah you're in Minecraft that's so cool wait can I read the text on that um yeah no no I can't read that but with the shapes and the colors though are really good like the colors are surprisingly good how' you do that I a terer wait I got I got to perfect it where I like go back in the same position hold on mhm oh no guys I managed to make it even faster look at this it's like almost not hurting my eyes it it's almost not painful to look at this that's so much better oh I'm lagging oh boy in what if I hit the milly Rock in MyCraft y but we're still not done we have one more thing to do before I show it off to people I want to encase the screen in an actual 3D model of a TV so I browsed online for a nice simple TV model and found one I liked I cleaned it up to work in a Minecraft resource pack and used OB JMC to convert the model over and I did some tweaking to the model and ended up with this so I did a little quick decoration which doesn't look fantastic but it's good enough for a video and let's see what people think of our working TV guess what I made in Minecraft today what did you make in Minecraft today I made you in Minecraft yay wait what wow this is so cool that's seriously impressive that's crazy did you do that in vanilla Minecraft yes I did do it in vanilla Minecraft you did Vanilla M it's like you've added Google meets to Minecraft that's wild yeah that's like a it's like a frame or two per second the color Fidelity is pretty good too this is the Minecraft experience I've always wanted well effectively you've added everything humanly possible to Minecraft with this mechanic oh oh that that's too much that hurts my brain a little bit Minecraft with in Minecraft you made Minecraft in M Misty you've done it yay Minecraft in Minecraft it's it's done yes yes that's just all I've ever wanted can I get that town hall up tuos looking a little small no three is the good level for me wait are you going to do bomb clip okay I can definitely for this one sec where are you at oh my God please I don't know what's going on did I win oh wait I wasn't recording just kidding don't you dare how many pixels is that that's a lot of pixels this is uh 240p that's yeah that's like pretty good tens of thousands right how many different colors are there uh all of them I guess anything with a hex oh really good job always one uping yourself this one's awesome always raising the bar Always setting the standard thank you for watching my video this was my
