To elaborate: Java modding can never be prevented, due to _the very nature of the Java programming language itself._ It's trivial to decompile and guaranteed to byte-for-byte recompile back into existing code, and even when obfuscated, you just have to cross-reference blocks of code in newer and older versions, be like "hey, abc:foo() has the same structure in 1.21 that BlockRendererFactory:cullHiddenFaces() does in 1.20, so it's probably named the same", like a giant crossword puzzle. In fact, this is how Java Edition modding has _always_ been since the very beginning, having "deobfuscation maps" just makes the process _easier._ If they double down and remove deobf maps, Java modders will be like "Oh no! Anyway..." and go back to the old method of manually solving. Mods will take longer to be updated due to needing to wait for the deobf group (Minecraft Coder Pack, back in the Beta days) to fully "solve" the names, but it'll still be business as usual. There is _nothing_ that Mojang Redmond (Microsoft) can order Mojang Sweden (OG Mojang) to do to Java Edition that will make modding "impossible" _(laughs in deleting META-INF),_ Java itself guarantees there's a way. *_That isn't the case for Bedrock Edition._* As anyone who's watched a video about Nintendo 64 decomps is aware, decompiling C++ into a functional recompileable (and moddable!) form is a significant pain in the mushrooms. You _need_ to give the decompiler notes about which chunks of machine code mean what and where they are, for it to spit out anything remotely functional (let alone readable as C++ instead of massive barf-blobs of assembly). _That is what PDB maps are for,_ in this context. It's _possible_ to go without them, but it's a massive pain, and even if you don't deliberately modify anything, what you recompile is _not_ guaranteed to work the same as the original (again, look how much effort it took to get Mario 64 to byte-for-byte recompile back into the original ROM).
So what I'm hearing from this is that for Java (the edition I play) it's business as usual and bedrock (the edition I could not give a single shit about) is in trouble ? Fine by me lmao
yea bedrock beintg made in C++ makes obfuscating easier and easier java is a mess but its also hell to obfuscate...not so with C++ hence why bedrocks on it....after all killing modding drives up marketplace sales making microsoft $$$$$$ which makes their share value go up...which makes their execs very happy
Yea, can't be sure about actually teaming up When some of the Java players just don't care bc they won't even touch bedrock version bc of some awful features (microtransactions for mods + critical bugs like Steve's heart attacks out of nowhere), bedrock players run petition for worsening modding process for Java modders (clown move) with 200+ votes
What Microsoft says: "We are removing the PDB file due to the security concerns" What Microsoft really says: "Mo ney moneymon eym ONE ymon eym on eym oneymone ymoneymo"
Embrace: "We love modding!" Extend: "We made our own little modding thing, its called the marketplace!" Extinguish: "To improve security and to move towards a safer future for modding, we're removing PDB debugging information from the release."
Especially when we there will inevitably be people reuploading others work as if it’s their own because who cares about supporting the original creators, not Microsoft. :D
Bedrock modders were lucky even have a pdb file. Most games wouldn't even provide a pdb file and modders would have to reverse engineer the game from scratch. Go look at Geometry Dash modding as an example, the modding community (Geode) have created their own "bindings" which give names to the functions of the game. They have to document all of this from scratch, they never had a pdb.
@@ReboTheVaporeon Not everyone can use a PC and even if they have a PC, Java is much harder to run on weak hardware so Bedrock is their only option. It isn't the players fault for the micro-transactions.
It still has the same Eula that’s why third party websites like mcpedl can’t allow creators to charge for addons also Java does have paid mods but they are highly frowned upon by the entire community curseforge and etc strictly prohibited paid mods but the creators can still make money on it when the mod is entirely free But the bedrock marketplace completely allows it paid content from an official Microsoft service that’s why it doesn’t go against the EULA it would be different if it was on patreon or another third party website

If I remember correctly, not that long ago, they started to force a storage location shift of saved worlds. As I found out, I got to re-import the worlds into the game, just to repeat it after every time I run a cache cleaner app. Before they forced it, cache cleaners didn't affect the worlds or other localy stored data.
@@NEPR-7 This isn't Microsoft nor Mojang's fault. It's Android. It was forced because of increased Android restrictions on newer versions (10+), particularly about "Shared Storage" being inaccessible to apps without the user granting it deliberately via SAF (aka Storage Access Framework) or the two other types of "Files Permission" you can request from Android. This was done to increase the security of the sandbox for all Android apps. It basically makes ransomware impossible unless you're a total idiot. Non-file explorer apps are not allowed to request any permissions for Files access other than through SAF under the Play Store rules. This means no more using /storage/emulated/0/games/com.mojang/ to save your worlds. In fact, the only reason you're even able to import your worlds from there to the new save location (which is Android/data which you can access via ADB or a SAF bypass in Android 13 and below) is because Android permitted read-only access to it to help transition apps to the new standards. SAF is very annoying and confusing to use for end-users so I can see why they chose the more permanent and intended route that Android wanted app developers to take. Cache cleaner apps are viruses, Android has that built in. Please delete them, they're useless. Cache has a reason to exist, do not delete them willynilly.
@@NEPR-7This is Android's fault. They forced all apps to save non-sensitive userdata in "Android/data" and disallowed access to the "Shared Storage" which is /storage/emulated/0/ To help devs transition, they allowed them read-only access to any data their app saved in "Shared Storage" If Minecraft didnt do this, they'd be taken off the app store
For everyone concerned about this happening to Java: *this is why Yarn mappings exist.* If you're a modder, and you're worried about Mojang Mappings disappearing next, *switch to Yarn!*

2:53 "security reasons" is generally a poor excuse, since it's basically arguing for security by obscurity. The lack of debug symbols does not make it impossible to reverse engineer and figure out what's going on under the hood of compiled software, it just makes it more difficult and time consuming. Security by obscurity is generally frowned upon because it's not *really* improving security by any meaningful extent, it just has decent odds of making it take a bit longer to find those security holes, which is a bad solution in comparison to simply dedicating more time into *actual* security practices like more rigorous pen testing and code review. So at best, security by obscurity is just a band-aid over poor management practices because they either can't, or don't want to put in adequate resources into cybersecurity and ensuring code has been well designed, well reviewed, and well tested before shipping.
That Oh its a security issue is just a blatant excuse because it's not all about keeping people protected from malicious people but it's a form of control
Most of the time when a company like Microsoft does something for "security," it's 90% for something that makes more money, or allows them to do something else that makes more money. Remember: The most secure way to run a service is to disconnect it from everything and prevent users from doing anything. Security needs to be weighed against the cost of making software less useful, which is something that seems to be left out of their explanations.
In cat and mouse games like piracy or cheating making things more obscure is a valid strategy as there is no way to permanently fix it. The goal is to make the cost of doing so as high as possible. It is only frowned upon when it is possible to employ a solution that has a practically infinite cost to break because adding additional cost to something that is already infinite is not worth it compared to other benefits that may be available.

Programmer here. When a program is compiled, a lot of information that is only needed by the humans reading and maintaining the code, but not by the computer, is stripped out. The PDB file is a location where some of this stripped out data is stored so for the purposes of debugging (or reverse engineering) some of this lost context can be displayed in a debugging tool. Otherwise it will not be present and it may be more difficult to determine what the program is doing. I don't know exactly how this is relevant to modding, but my guess is they are able to see internal function names that are normally stripped out and this aids in determining where and how to patch the server to add in custom code at the desired locations.
Not a bedrock modder but from what I can gather the “modding API” for bedrock only has a limited amount of functions and most of the stuff people want is obfuscated away (like the ability to mess with items and add new ones). What documentation I found for the bedrock API is that’s it’s more analogous to the command block stuff (so it’s useful for making custom maps and scripted events but not major gameplay overhauls or even simple edits of the crafting system) but I may just about have gotten deep enough haha. For the non programmers out there bedrock was written in C++ and can be distributed without source code. The Java edition is written in Java which is much harder to (destructively) obfuscate the code. This is why all of the modding and multiplayer stuff has been centered around Java (the code is accessible and usable with way less effort).
In the most short terms pdb gives you a pointer to where you messed up and what is at that location, so you know when making changes to something that blows up you get an idea of what the cause might be. Documentation cannot really provide that level of debugging.
thats pretty much it, yeah. I'll also add that in C++, functions and things get jumbled up and mixed together in weird ways. Your "salmon" isn't alone, it's squashed into the same "image" with code that does a whole bunch of other stuff, so it's a lot harder to sort out what bits do what. the original code, while helpful, isn't as important as just borders splitting the code into related chunks, or something outlining those pixels and pointing to it saying "salmon". The suggestion to remove the java documentation is a sarcastic one, java doesn't really have this issue even with it removed, purely due to the nature of java as a programming language. You lose the function names yes, but decompiling java already splits everything into manageable chunks, and you can figure out most of the names from context and matching things to previous versions.

It makes me happy to see a Java player fight in the Bedrock players' corner. Also for the modders that are trying to make it a better game. It's normally the other way around so thank you for making a dedicated video for this.
The beauty of things like java Minecraft is that, should MS do a VERY big stupid, moders could agree on one of the latest version before the stupid happening, then from that point forward replicate any update Minecraft officially makes to the game via mods, effectively forking the whole game and creating a Libre/Open Office scenario.
and there is a precedent, in a smaller scale modders hard forked beta 1.7 and just carried on development from there, if modders hard fork minecraft at like... 1.25.x for example other things like performance mods could be integrated to the project as well etc, as long as theres no piracy they will struggle a lot to shut down the project
Welp, Minecraft has slid further down the corporate slope. I jumped ship to Vintage Story a couple years ago and I'm glad I did. I really want to check out Minetest too and am patiently waiting for Lay of the Land. Even if Micro$oft physically can't prevent modding on Java, it shows their mindset about the game and how they will treat the community and future updates. Its really sad that this once community driven game is being wrenched from the communities hands and so so many updates that are universally hated have been pushed over the past few years.
I mean it was the sole purpose of them even creating bedrock edition… why port the moble version of the game back to PC (which already had a version they still support and seems to function better anyways)? It was so they could add micro transactions and this is just a way of furthering that goal.
This change will only make security worse, not only will the community security patches be gone, but hackers will be basically uneffected. Modders often work on pure love of a game, while it is possible to continue to mod without the PDB file, itll be very difficult. This isnt an issue for hackers though, hackers are incentivezed by money from selling or running ads on their client website, therefor they will just apply reverse engineering tactics. This is a very stupid change
I told people they'd start doing this before, but everyone kept glazing Mojang. I'm not happy that I ended up being right. This all came from Microsoft influence. Microsoft influenced the political splash texts and maps they added, and they're influencing monetisation too. I'm not sure if Mojang is even trying to resist it anymore.
I rarely play Bedrock... But I feel like I also must help the community. Even if it is only one vote... We might be able to save Bedrock... I didn't even have an MCFB account before... I registered to vote.
It would be good if when commenting on this, you shared interesting sites to download bedrock mods and textures like bedrock tweaks or mcpedl, people think that there is only a marketplace and assume that there is no community of creators at bedrock
Thank you Pheonix SC for making this video and calling out microsoft for doing something that should be frankly unaccepable. I remember back in sometime like 2010 when I first started to play minecraft and I remeber it being the most magical experience exploring the world. i remeber every update being full of magic as i was able to explore the world without having to consider anything about minecoins or other things. i remember waiting ages for pistons to come out and having no clue what the hell the observer did. i remeber finding a old world with walls build out of nether reactor cores!!! it was a major part of my childhood and i want it to continue that way and by you making this video helps so much to continue to have minecraft be accessable to all who want to have the same experiance of the magic of exploring this world. i know you probs wont read this but thanks anyways
I took almost 2 decades for GTA San Andreas modding community to have some .pdb file for classic GTA San Andreas game (released in 2005). It was leaked a few years ago from a mobile version of the game, but it is so useful that it helps even the PC community. One interesting thing is that we on the community are pretty sure this was purposefully leaked from the Grove Street Studios (porter of mobile version and created of GTA Trilogy remaster), because they leaked A LOT of things for us in the past years (even the full missions and shops source code with compiler), and we know that Rockstar Games would ABSOLUTELY NEVER share .pdb etc. But Grove Street Games loves the modding community, I even indirectly made they release the 2.0 mobile version after years without any release (is a long story, about a very important bug that modders (not me) managed to fix etc).

A similar thing has existed in java up until very recently when Mojang began providing their own official obfuscation mappings. Minecraft Java edition code is not publicly available because in the past it was necessary to prevent people from making copies but copies of Minecraft exist regardless now which makes you question why they'd keep the code secret anymore. Anyways, to avoid people decompiling the game and figuring out what the code does, Mojang applies obfuscation to various aspects of the game code which makes it more difficult to read. Java modders in the past fixed this issue by inventing the MCP obfuscation mappings by reading the obfuscated code themselves, collectively, and assembling the MCP. They then deobfuscate the game code in the development environment and obfuscate the mods in release. The PDB files are basically the Microsoft provided obfuscation mappings for bedrock. Without them, the bedrock community will need to create their own mappings like java modders did many many years ago. There really is no security vulnerability in having the code be exposed plainly, malicious modders will simply create their own PDBs anyways.
The difference is that decompiling Java is pretty straightforward. I can open any .jar in IntelliJ IDEA and get a decent enough representation of the code (though with obfuscation, things will be randomly named like AzB1Ky or something). With C++ it's extremely difficult.
@@levence643-- I think that's how Java modding has worked forever, so since 2009. The Java programming language makes deobfuscation rather easy though, C++/C# is a lot harder.
@@TlalocTemporalJava is relatively easy to decompile because it isn't fully compiled in the first place. It's part-compiled to an intermediate language, which gets interpreted by the Java runtime into machine code. C# is similar - it's why Unity games often have mods incredibly shortly after launch. The code still has information needed for decompilation, as this is needed for it to be compiled from the intermediate to machine code. C++ is compiled directly to machine code. This gives some benefits like better performance, but it also means that all information not useful for program and execution is completely removed. Normally, for debugging purposes, this information is stored in a PDB file to help the developers to debug the program - but these files are rarely actually shipped with the program, and hence decompiling C++ is difficult.
@@Chocice75 -- Ah, I didn't realize that C# and C++ were different in this, interesting. Ostensibly, Pocket edition/Bedrock was written in C++ for performance reasons. Is this loading/startup performance, or does the code being fully compiled somehow grant better runtime performance?
Not only Renderdragon preventing HAL shaders and having a phone not powerful enough for deferred rendering shaders is why I use the old MCBE/PE 1.18.12 version, but because of mod suppression in future updates too.
I get that microsoft/mojang wants to make bedrock the "corporate" version. But every time they do it its aways at a major cost. Mainly in player freedom and control over important things. At least java is and aways will be here. Let me explain: Its pretty much the only advertised version Its the version with the marketplace, sponsors, "DLC-s", ugc and revenue stream Its the version with the "intended" features(aka not that many buggy or old things like the furnace minecart and quasi-connectivity) Its the version out on everything, probably even inluding woodchippers and ovens And its also the version that is the most "polished"(that is if you ignore the billion and one bugs that make it into the "thats all we have" version)
@@tftc97 What he means to say is "corporate version"-sanitized and monetized.

Some examples of F2P games are Fortnite, Smite, and Clicker Heroes. This is one of the main reasons people cite preferring to play on PC. P.S. liking your own comment is not a good look.
Yep, it might be (nearly) impossible to ever stop java modding due to nature of Java itself, while what happened here to BE is what I believed would happen from the very start.
It's crazy how they're saying it's to "stop hacked clients" ignoring that all its gonna do is make hacked clients both cost more to buy and be more complicated.
I hate the marketplace. There's practically no quality control, and I'm highly skeptical that the creators have permission to use the IPs for their skin packs and other content. Add-ons often break when used in regular worlds. The character customization is underwhelming; I would have preferred something like Essential on Java, where you can buy cosmetics for your existing skin. It's really disappointing because a system like this could have been a great way for creators to profit from mods. Instead, it's garbage-filled cash grab and Microsoft is fully aware of it.
Hello! Sorry to bother you. I'm one of the members of Chinese Minecraft translator group. The news that mojang will stop providing pdb file is not widely spread in Chinese Minecraft community and there are many persons don't realize how important it is. So I want to translate your video of removing pdb file and repost it on bilibili without any profit to let more people know the news and vote the feedback and leave the comments.😢

The funny thing is that for Java, when mojang startet releasing deobfuscated names most modders kept using the reverse engineered deobfuscation because it just had better variable naming. I dont know if that's still the case tho
Another example of bedrock's DRM hurting it's paying player base while creating another benefit for free piracy/hacked that legitimate paid users don't get....
10,500 votes and counting. I don't even play bedrock edition that much, and yet I'm still really mad at what Mojang is doing. I wonder if its a decision being made by higher management, from Microsoft even. Still, it doesn't excuse them just cutting off a community like this
Yeah that kinda happened before when bedrock has a feature where if any entity step on top of a campfire it got burned instead of just half of heart damage/s.. And then as you expected mojang removed them as "parity" to java and also called them a "bug"
I fear this could be a reality sooner than we might think. They have been pushing parody features on bedrock all of a sudden Why add hardcore mode to bedrock when we all know how many ways to die due to bugs there are.
There is an open request to add pause in single player bedrock minecraft. It has been open for like 5+ years, iirc (maybe even more, kinda lazy to check it again). There is no pause in the game. That's what you need to know about microsoft/mojang.
Lazy devs. Every other game I know has an actual pause screen. When I get temporarily distracted by family, I have to exit my world and reload and wait ages for the bar to load... on a gaming laptop 😑 Java may perform worse when it comes to framerate in vanilla, but at least it's solid, responsive and instant.
@@spicylemon2623 because I'm playing in single player and I'm used to have some level of control over the game. That's one of the reasons I'm playing only java. And this video is another example, why java is superior to bedrock.
To elaborate: Java modding can never be prevented, due to _the very nature of the Java programming language itself._ It's trivial to decompile and guaranteed to byte-for-byte recompile back into existing code, and even when obfuscated, you just have to cross-reference blocks of code in newer and older versions, be like "hey, abc:foo() has the same structure in 1.21 that BlockRendererFactory:cullHiddenFaces() does in 1.20, so it's probably named the same", like a giant crossword puzzle. In fact, this is how Java Edition modding has _always_ been since the very beginning, having "deobfuscation maps" just makes the process _easier._ If they double down and remove deobf maps, Java modders will be like "Oh no! Anyway..." and go back to the old method of manually solving. Mods will take longer to be updated due to needing to wait for the deobf group (Minecraft Coder Pack, back in the Beta days) to fully "solve" the names, but it'll still be business as usual. There is _nothing_ that Mojang Redmond (Microsoft) can order Mojang Sweden (OG Mojang) to do to Java Edition that will make modding "impossible" _(laughs in deleting META-INF),_ Java itself guarantees there's a way.
*_That isn't the case for Bedrock Edition._* As anyone who's watched a video about Nintendo 64 decomps is aware, decompiling C++ into a functional recompileable (and moddable!) form is a significant pain in the mushrooms. You _need_ to give the decompiler notes about which chunks of machine code mean what and where they are, for it to spit out anything remotely functional (let alone readable as C++ instead of massive barf-blobs of assembly). _That is what PDB maps are for,_ in this context. It's _possible_ to go without them, but it's a massive pain, and even if you don't deliberately modify anything, what you recompile is _not_ guaranteed to work the same as the original (again, look how much effort it took to get Mario 64 to byte-for-byte recompile back into the original ROM).
Thank you
Its the difference between using some random software to get a decomp in a week vs effectively rebuilding the game from scratch
So what I'm hearing from this is that for Java (the edition I play) it's business as usual and bedrock (the edition I could not give a single shit about) is in trouble ?
Fine by me lmao
yea bedrock beintg made in C++ makes obfuscating easier and easier java is a mess but its also hell to obfuscate...not so with C++ hence why bedrocks on it....after all killing modding drives up marketplace sales making microsoft $$$$$$ which makes their share value go up...which makes their execs very happy

We're so lucky Notch allowed mods and skins on Java to be free and fully custom. I wish Microsoft would respect that choice on Bedrock
It still has the same Eula that’s why third party websites like mcpedl can’t allow creators to charge for addons also Java does have paid mods but they are highly frowned upon by the entire community curseforge and etc strictly prohibited paid mods but the creators can still make money on it when the mod is entirely free

I'd like to add that custom terrain generation has been broken in bedrock for nearly four years now and hasn't been addressed at all.
If I remember correctly, not that long ago, they started to force a storage location shift of saved worlds. As I found out, I got to re-import the worlds into the game, just to repeat it after every time I run a cache cleaner app. Before they forced it, cache cleaners didn't affect the worlds or other localy stored data.
Recently, it affects localy stored custom skins too
Correct
@@NEPR-7 This isn't Microsoft nor Mojang's fault. It's Android.
It was forced because of increased Android restrictions on newer versions (10+), particularly about "Shared Storage" being inaccessible to apps without the user granting it deliberately via SAF (aka Storage Access Framework) or the two other types of "Files Permission" you can request from Android. This was done to increase the security of the sandbox for all Android apps. It basically makes ransomware impossible unless you're a total idiot.
Non-file explorer apps are not allowed to request any permissions for Files access other than through SAF under the Play Store rules.
This means no more using /storage/emulated/0/games/com.mojang/ to save your worlds. In fact, the only reason you're even able to import your worlds from there to the new save location (which is Android/data which you can access via ADB or a SAF bypass in Android 13 and below) is because Android permitted read-only access to it to help transition apps to the new standards.
SAF is very annoying and confusing to use for end-users so I can see why they chose the more permanent and intended route that Android wanted app developers to take.
Cache cleaner apps are viruses, Android has that built in. Please delete them, they're useless. Cache has a reason to exist, do not delete them willynilly.
@@NEPR-7This is Android's fault. They forced all apps to save non-sensitive userdata in "Android/data" and disallowed access to the "Shared Storage" which is /storage/emulated/0/
To help devs transition, they allowed them read-only access to any data their app saved in "Shared Storage"
If Minecraft didnt do this, they'd be taken off the app store
For everyone concerned about this happening to Java: *this is why Yarn mappings exist.* If you're a modder, and you're worried about Mojang Mappings disappearing next, *switch to Yarn!*

2:53 "security reasons" is generally a poor excuse, since it's basically arguing for security by obscurity. The lack of debug symbols does not make it impossible to reverse engineer and figure out what's going on under the hood of compiled software, it just makes it more difficult and time consuming. Security by obscurity is generally frowned upon because it's not *really* improving security by any meaningful extent, it just has decent odds of making it take a bit longer to find those security holes, which is a bad solution in comparison to simply dedicating more time into *actual* security practices like more rigorous pen testing and code review. So at best, security by obscurity is just a band-aid over poor management practices because they either can't, or don't want to put in adequate resources into cybersecurity and ensuring code has been well designed, well reviewed, and well tested before shipping.
That's why he says it's good thing that they have a way to de-obfuscate it IMMEDIATELY afterwards.
That Oh its a security issue is just a blatant excuse because it's not all about keeping people protected from malicious people but it's a form of control
So they're just like MasterLock now
Most of the time when a company like Microsoft does something for "security," it's 90% for something that makes more money, or allows them to do something else that makes more money. Remember: The most secure way to run a service is to disconnect it from everything and prevent users from doing anything. Security needs to be weighed against the cost of making software less useful, which is something that seems to be left out of their explanations.
In cat and mouse games like piracy or cheating making things more obscure is a valid strategy as there is no way to permanently fix it. The goal is to make the cost of doing so as high as possible.
It is only frowned upon when it is possible to employ a solution that has a practically infinite cost to break because adding additional cost to something that is already infinite is not worth it compared to other benefits that may be available.

Programmer here. When a program is compiled, a lot of information that is only needed by the humans reading and maintaining the code, but not by the computer, is stripped out.
The PDB file is a location where some of this stripped out data is stored so for the purposes of debugging (or reverse engineering) some of this lost context can be displayed in a debugging tool. Otherwise it will not be present and it may be more difficult to determine what the program is doing.
I don't know exactly how this is relevant to modding, but my guess is they are able to see internal function names that are normally stripped out and this aids in determining where and how to patch the server to add in custom code at the desired locations.
Not a bedrock modder but from what I can gather the “modding API” for bedrock only has a limited amount of functions and most of the stuff people want is obfuscated away (like the ability to mess with items and add new ones). What documentation I found for the bedrock API is that’s it’s more analogous to the command block stuff (so it’s useful for making custom maps and scripted events but not major gameplay overhauls or even simple edits of the crafting system) but I may just about have gotten deep enough haha.
For the non programmers out there bedrock was written in C++ and can be distributed without source code. The Java edition is written in Java which is much harder to (destructively) obfuscate the code. This is why all of the modding and multiplayer stuff has been centered around Java (the code is accessible and usable with way less effort).
In the most short terms pdb gives you a pointer to where you messed up and what is at that location, so you know when making changes to something that blows up you get an idea of what the cause might be. Documentation cannot really provide that level of debugging.
thats pretty much it, yeah. I'll also add that in C++, functions and things get jumbled up and mixed together in weird ways. Your "salmon" isn't alone, it's squashed into the same "image" with code that does a whole bunch of other stuff, so it's a lot harder to sort out what bits do what. the original code, while helpful, isn't as important as just borders splitting the code into related chunks, or something outlining those pixels and pointing to it saying "salmon".
The suggestion to remove the java documentation is a sarcastic one, java doesn't really have this issue even with it removed, purely due to the nature of java as a programming language. You lose the function names yes, but decompiling java already splits everything into manageable chunks, and you can figure out most of the names from context and matching things to previous versions.

It’s mostly Microsoft’s fault. Wish notch or whoever did it never sold in the first place.
Earlier versions will always have mods
java players won't allow it. plus we can just not update to that version anyway.
@@WhatIsANameAndAreNamesNamey you cant switch to older versions on bedrock tho
@@Esiv0_you can with third party softwares like bedrock launcher
The beauty of things like java Minecraft is that, should MS do a VERY big stupid, moders could agree on one of the latest version before the stupid happening, then from that point forward replicate any update Minecraft officially makes to the game via mods, effectively forking the whole game and creating a Libre/Open Office scenario.
and there is a precedent, in a smaller scale modders hard forked beta 1.7 and just carried on development from there, if modders hard fork minecraft at like... 1.25.x for example other things like performance mods could be integrated to the project as well etc, as long as theres no piracy they will struggle a lot to shut down the project
Welp, Minecraft has slid further down the corporate slope. I jumped ship to Vintage Story a couple years ago and I'm glad I did. I really want to check out Minetest too and am patiently waiting for Lay of the Land. Even if Micro$oft physically can't prevent modding on Java, it shows their mindset about the game and how they will treat the community and future updates. Its really sad that this once community driven game is being wrenched from the communities hands and so so many updates that are universally hated have been pushed over the past few years.
Minetest is cool but it lacks the polish that minecraft has, hopefully with some work it'll be possible to make it more similar to minecraft
The Marketplace was the worst thing to ever happen to Bedrock Edition.
Agree
Add-ons in general
@lovitree9853i aint paying 20 for a tiny ahh mod that is normally free in not just java but 95% of every game i've ever seen
I mean it was the sole purpose of them even creating bedrock edition… why port the moble version of the game back to PC (which already had a version they still support and seems to function better anyways)? It was so they could add micro transactions and this is just a way of furthering that goal.
Absol-fucking-lutely
This change will only make security worse, not only will the community security patches be gone, but hackers will be basically uneffected. Modders often work on pure love of a game, while it is possible to continue to mod without the PDB file, itll be very difficult. This isnt an issue for hackers though, hackers are incentivezed by money from selling or running ads on their client website, therefor they will just apply reverse engineering tactics. This is a very stupid change
Yo fellow gordon pfp
I told people they'd start doing this before, but everyone kept glazing Mojang.
I'm not happy that I ended up being right.
This all came from Microsoft influence. Microsoft influenced the political splash texts and maps they added, and they're influencing monetisation too. I'm not sure if Mojang is even trying to resist it anymore.
damn bots why pheonix tho
I already knew Mojang was going down this route when they started pushing political splash texts..

It would be good if when commenting on this, you shared interesting sites to download bedrock mods and textures like bedrock tweaks or mcpedl, people think that there is only a marketplace and assume that there is no community of creators at bedrock
Thank you Pheonix SC for making this video and calling out microsoft for doing something that should be frankly unaccepable. I remember back in sometime like 2010 when I first started to play minecraft and I remeber it being the most magical experience exploring the world. i remeber every update being full of magic as i was able to explore the world without having to consider anything about minecoins or other things. i remember waiting ages for pistons to come out and having no clue what the hell the observer did. i remeber finding a old world with walls build out of nether reactor cores!!! it was a major part of my childhood and i want it to continue that way and by you making this video helps so much to continue to have minecraft be accessable to all who want to have the same experiance of the magic of exploring this world.

I took almost 2 decades for GTA San Andreas modding community to have some .pdb file for classic GTA San Andreas game (released in 2005). It was leaked a few years ago from a mobile version of the game, but it is so useful that it helps even the PC community. One interesting thing is that we on the community are pretty sure this was purposefully leaked from the Grove Street Studios (porter of mobile version and created of GTA Trilogy remaster), because they leaked A LOT of things for us in the past years (even the full missions and shops source code with compiler), and we know that Rockstar Games would ABSOLUTELY NEVER share .pdb etc. But Grove Street Games loves the modding community, I even indirectly made they release the 2.0 mobile version after years without any release (is a long story, about a very important bug that modders (not me) managed to fix etc).
The people of the launcher of Amethyst thank you for making such a informative video, since we thought TheMisterEpic's video wasn't as informative about the issue as this is!

That’s almost entirely impossible if they want to “mod” the game they need to switch to Java bedrock has too much limitations on things they can do it’s getting better with SCRIPT API and marketplace creators have better limitations on addons and they are one day going to be giving the creative tools that marketplace creators have to the public so it’ll be easier for them to make content like creators on the marketplace can

@@qtpaulie That's probably true, but you gotta respect MCP for paving the way of minecraft modding from alpha all the way to 1.12
A similar thing has existed in java up until very recently when Mojang began providing their own official obfuscation mappings. Minecraft Java edition code is not publicly available because in the past it was necessary to prevent people from making copies but copies of Minecraft exist regardless now which makes you question why they'd keep the code secret anymore. Anyways, to avoid people decompiling the game and figuring out what the code does, Mojang applies obfuscation to various aspects of the game code which makes it more difficult to read. Java modders in the past fixed this issue by inventing the MCP obfuscation mappings by reading the obfuscated code themselves, collectively, and assembling the MCP. They then deobfuscate the game code in the development environment and obfuscate the mods in release.
The PDB files are basically the Microsoft provided obfuscation mappings for bedrock. Without them, the bedrock community will need to create their own mappings like java modders did many many years ago. There really is no security vulnerability in having the code be exposed plainly, malicious modders will simply create their own PDBs anyways.
thats really interesting. I never knew this happened.... when you say many years ago, you mean like.... 2015 or something?
The difference is that decompiling Java is pretty straightforward. I can open any .jar in IntelliJ IDEA and get a decent enough representation of the code (though with obfuscation, things will be randomly named like AzB1Ky or something). With C++ it's extremely difficult.
@@levence643-- I think that's how Java modding has worked forever, so since 2009. The Java programming language makes deobfuscation rather easy though, C++/C# is a lot harder.
@@TlalocTemporalJava is relatively easy to decompile because it isn't fully compiled in the first place. It's part-compiled to an intermediate language, which gets interpreted by the Java runtime into machine code. C# is similar - it's why Unity games often have mods incredibly shortly after launch. The code still has information needed for decompilation, as this is needed for it to be compiled from the intermediate to machine code.
C++ is compiled directly to machine code. This gives some benefits like better performance, but it also means that all information not useful for program and execution is completely removed. Normally, for debugging purposes, this information is stored in a PDB file to help the developers to debug the program - but these files are rarely actually shipped with the program, and hence decompiling C++ is difficult.
@@Chocice75 -- Ah, I didn't realize that C# and C++ were different in this, interesting.
Ostensibly, Pocket edition/Bedrock was written in C++ for performance reasons. Is this loading/startup performance, or does the code being fully compiled somehow grant better runtime performance?
Not only Renderdragon preventing HAL shaders and having a phone not powerful enough for deferred rendering shaders is why I use the old MCBE/PE 1.18.12 version, but because of mod suppression in future updates too.
I get that microsoft/mojang wants to make bedrock the "corporate" version. But every time they do it its aways at a major cost. Mainly in player freedom and control over important things.
At least java is and aways will be here.
Let me explain:
Its pretty much the only advertised version
Its the version with the marketplace, sponsors, "DLC-s", ugc and revenue stream
Its the version with the "intended" features(aka not that many buggy or old things like the furnace minecart and quasi-connectivity)
Its the version out on everything, probably even inluding woodchippers and ovens
And its also the version that is the most "polished"(that is if you ignore the billion and one bugs that make it into the "thats all we have" version)
Yea, the version that runs the worst being the professional version.
That honestly sounds very modern corporate.
@@Pwnopolis-- Maybe there will be more work done by modders on getting Java to run on phones and connect to realms.

@@tftc97 What he means to say is "corporate version"-sanitized and monetized. Microsoft can't generate shareholder profit from Java aside from accounts, and they lack the kind of control in keeping up appearances a publicly traded company desires over its products. Even the former struggles since Java is so easily portable, see Eaglercraft. Microsoft has been trying to kill Java since the day they bought it for these two fundamental reasons.

Mods are the only thing keeping your game alive.

This will literally kill bedrock edition is they don’t add it back. I mean it could ruin servers all together at some point which will drive people to just making worlds and eventually they will get bored so they move to Java realizing they wasted money on bedrock Edition.

Let's say something straight. Security by obscurity is antipattern, and should not be used because it makes software actually more vulnreable. If people has access to source they can pentest it, debug it, find and report vulnerabilities. Look for open source software or bug bounty programs.

This is terrible, if they're trying to do this to bedrock Java will be next. We really need to make a drama about this
Java doesn't work the same way... They can do things that will ruin the game sure. But it can't be next for this kind of thing.
He did his best to explain what the output difference is between the C++ code and java. But to be extra clear, decompiling C++ leaves almost 0 name and text information used to identify stuff for modders. Java basically keeps all of it. So Java can't get screwed like this.
They really can't to Java. The Yarn mappings are just as popular as the official Mojang Mappings.
Java is untouchable. I'll be balling while mojang tries to find jet another reason to ruin bedrock for profit.
@@SquintyGears Also it would be like shooting yourself in the foot from a business perspective, as around 50% when not even more of java players are using mods.
the thing that Mojang probably does (I hope not) is to funnel the Java player to bedrock with many QoL and, at worst, stop updating Java for future updates ...
Another thing they did to make bedrock edition suck is that you have to pay for the XBOX game pass just to play multiplayer, I don't have money to waste on it and I can't afford an expensive computer to run java edition smoothly.

That's only if you are on Xbox One/Series. If you play on Nintendo, you have to get NSO to play online, if you're on PS4/5, you have to get PS+. This is true for every non-free game on all these platforms. Multiplayer is free only on mobile/PC nowadays for most titles.

It's crazy how they're saying it's to "stop hacked clients" ignoring that all its gonna do is make hacked clients both cost more to buy and be more complicated.
I hate the marketplace. There's practically no quality control, and I'm highly skeptical that the creators have permission to use the IPs for their skin packs and other content. Add-ons often break when used in regular worlds. The character customization is underwhelming; I would have preferred something like Essential on Java, where you can buy cosmetics for your existing skin. It's really disappointing because a system like this could have been a great way for creators to profit from mods. Instead, it's garbage-filled cash grab and Microsoft is fully aware of it.
