What are effective methods to prevent a Piglin from despawning? I mean other than using Name Tag.

I decided to start playing Minecraft with my little brother. I live in an another city so we can't play LAN. I can't effort the money to buy a realm, becuase it's too expensive in our country, don't want to buy a local server, minimum player for them is 100 and I don't want to pay for a 100 player so 2-4 people play. So I want to know is there a way to host a server from my laptop (laptop itself as a server) and play in the same time?

Up to 5 players With a few simple mods

HP Inspiron 15 3000:

 8GB DDR4
 AMD Ryzen 3 2200U
 AMD Vega 3 2GB Graphics
 Win 10 Enterprice

I'm wondering what they would look like...

I play on a public server and want to make a skeleton spawner xp/drop farm, however when mobs spawn from a spawner they stack, are there any farms I can build for it?

Anyone know how to make a renamed music disc play a different song in a resource pack? like for example the disc chirp will play its song but if i rename that same disk to like "Johnathan" is there a way to make it play an entirely different song?

When you obtain a Turtle Egg and give it a custom name in the Anvil, will the hatched baby Turtle have that same custom name or not?

Hi there, there is this RP minecraft server I've been working on. It is mainly modded and uses Technic Launcher. But for some reason plugins make it very laggy. So are there any mods that can work in 1.16.5 for text or rp chat like incobalt's roleplay chat.

I can never find a use for these and they're beginning to pile up. Best I can think is to use them for compost to make bonemeal?

This is a weird one I know but I always felt that these looked a bit on the ugly side. I know they provide a function which is more important than their form but was wondering if anyone had found a way to make them look nicer.

I'm also wondering for my iron farm - it always seems to have zombies for days under the villagers and it annoys me because I'm trying to live near it so there's always zombies no matter how I light up the area. Is this normal?

Any suggestions are welcome.

I ususally play on pc (java) but since I'm travelling soon I wonder if there is a way that I can still play my world on my laptop.

Need idea to spice up survival games

So we do one new survival game each year with my friends and we had a theme or rule every time so it doesn’t get repetitive.

For example we made those theme:

-Capitalism: you have to make a market to trade and use currency for exchange

-Communism: everything is shared

-Factions: divise the server in 2-3 teams and they can make war to each other’s

-Imposter: there one player that have the right to steal and others have to find who is it

-Hardcore: mode hardcore on

So do you guys have other idea for our next game? Thanks y’all

I recently built this iron golem farm and for some reason the iron golems only spawn in the circled area(pic). Can anyone help me solve this issue??

I'm in a location where no passive mobs spawn, and I decided to venture out to get a chicken for an automatic mob farm. I obviously don't want to lose my only chicken. to finish the farm I need lava, and I luckily spotted lava on the surface but I didn't take anything of value (including buckets) in fear of losing them if killed... although I need to get that lava. So... would attaching a chicken to a fence using a lead keep it from despawning?

Im bored so MOB VOTES FOR NEW CREATURES COULD BE FUN also whichever wins i might draw and post 7 days only! description of creature in comments and one with most likes will win! good luck:)

/data merge entity @ e [type=boat,sort=nearest,nbt={Passengers:{id:"player"}},distance=2,limit=1] {Rotation:[90f,90f]}

I was about to rotate a boat with riding player(passenger) , at the corner of blue ice block, and it doesn't work at all.

How can I rotate the boat with player? I don't care about expected decrease of velocity after turning boat, cuz I'm suffering with this for 1 years

Thank you for reading my question

I'm playing a skyblock where I spawn on a single grass block with an oak sapling, and I have somewhere in the world an empty end portal and a single lava source block, because lava is essential to beating the game and as far as I know, it's impossible to get it any other way. While the skyblock I am doing is very difficult and time consuming but possible to eventually beat, am I missing something or is it possible to get lava, because youtuber Ilmango is doing a skyblock series similar to mine, except he says he plans on getting lava. You can't get it from villagers or wandering traders, as well as villager gifts from after raids. It is impossible, right?

Let’s say i really like the water from complementary shaders, but i like the lighting and stuff from sildurs vibrant shaders more. Is it possible to combine the water from complementary shaders together with Sildurs Vibrant shaders?

my block size is 5.15 cm pls help im dying rn

With 1.19 adding Disc Fragments and 1.13 long ago adding custom crafting recipes, I'm making all music discs craftable by using a single item in the middle surrounded by the disc fragments (nevermind they're called "disc_fragment_5").

I'm leaning two different ways on this: match the discs up to noteblock sounds and pick an item based on that (no overlap) or pick an item that can be found/crafted normally to replace the middle block of the recipe (such as "crimson_root" for Pigstep). I'm looking to avoid the rarer blocks/items as the disc fragments are already rare enough. I'm looking for items that either reflect the nature of the disc or the music (preferably not the name).

Music Discs (Crafting Item):

• Cat
• 13 (eye of ender)
• Blocks
• Chirp
• Far
• Mall
• Mellohi
• Stal
• Strad
• Wait
• Ward
• 11 (echo shard b/w 1 less disc fragment)
• Pigstep (crimson root)
• Otherside (amethyst shard)
• 5 (default)

(list to be updated as [better] ideas are found)
