Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 17/05/2025Can’t share anything now, but I think we’ll share more about our thoughts on version numbers in the next year or so. No promises, but there are conversations happening. 0153
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 16/05/2025Excited about this! Always wanted more customization of the Xbox Home Screen UI. These are nice quality of life changes. 040
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 16/05/2025Right, that should be working as of yesterday. Give it a try again. I confirmed Actions and Stuff x32 kept the animations but used vanilla textures. Previously it would always default back to x16 which used the A&S textures. 110
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 16/05/2025You mean the subpack slider? x16, x32, etc? That is working as of yesterday! 100
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 16/05/2025Your Realm, your choice to force Realm members opt in to the timeline in order to play on the Realm. Nice admin feature coming to Realms SOON. 290
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 15/05/2025Try again! We have it working now. Here is the x32 version running on my Realm: 031

Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 14/05/2025Yeah we have the service fix loaded into our deployment set to go out tomorrow. Sorry for the wait! 110

Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 12/05/2025Found the issue and will be getting a fix out for it this week! 030
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 11/05/2025We’re taking a look specifically at A&S, because yes it’s not working as intended still. Had it working in our test environment, but something isn’t working. We’ll get it sorted so it works properly! 010
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 10/05/2025Taking a look at it. I am seeing the same thing with A&S but other packs with sub packs are working. We’ll get it working properly. 010
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 09/05/2025At a high level it was: - update client to send subpack ID to service - update service to read ID and save it - use ID when starting up the server and applying the pack Lots of detail in between though. The delay fixing really boils down to prioritization though. We only have so much time 😢 121
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 09/05/2025Yes! So many packs that will benefit from this!! I’ve wanted to get it fixed for a while. Just hard to fit it in among other commitments and priorities. 140
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 09/05/2025Yeah I’m sorry cause that was me responding on Jira back in August 🫣 We did have someone on our client team take a look at it around the time that I posted it, but we found that the issue also required a service side fix and our service team had been at capacity until just recently. 031
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 09/05/2025Surprise Realms service side fix today -- resource pack subpacks can now be adjusted on Realms! Really happy to get this long-standing issue fixed: report.bugs.mojang.com/servicedesk/...

Reposted by DylanDavid @cornerhard.bsky.social · 06/05/2025In today's 1.21.80 update, Realms will show you the server region when joining. Using the new Advanced Realms settings, you can change the region for your Realm to improve ping times 😎 Server region support is also coming in the next Java update 😀 www.minecraft.net/en-us/articl... 1302
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 05/05/2025Moving to Azure definitely helped this, but it also took a big refactor of some of the legacy pieces of our codebase. Before all our region assignment was hardcoded so adding a new region required touching a lot of code all over the place. Now it is all dynamic so we can add new regions quickly! 💪🏼 030
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 05/05/2025Happy Monday! Want to know about how Realms hosts your server?

Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 26/04/2025T-mobile park has some great food, but I didn’t realize they have Moto this year!! 🙌🏼 010
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 26/04/2025Like Shadeur is very talented, and from a purely on the field standpoint he is better than others already taken… But he isn’t leagues better. I feel like he is acting like he is the second coming of Brady or Burrow with how he approached pre-draft workouts and interviews. 120
Dylan @dlonking.bsky.social · 26/04/2025I honestly think teams may just want to avoid the drama/narrative at QB They don’t want his dad criticizing coaching decisions if things don’t go well, or publicly asking to be his coach Also what message does it send if you don’t do any of the pre draft workouts and don’t interview some teams? 210
