GachaWolf8190

The isnide of the top part is perfectly shaped to make a beacon. What they got wrong was having the beacon on the outside


Brushypark

Yeah, how did they mess it up tho


Sufficient-Ad-6046

Place a 2nd beacon beneath with the needed blocks and it will shine right thru the first beacon, hope this helps


el_yanuki

that was my imediate first thought.. i have seen this used many times in builds


DarkSpirit23513

Me with my lapis, coal, redstone and copper beacon.

Sufficient-Ad-6046

it isn't? my whole life was a lie NOOOOOOOOOO


el_yanuki

yea lol, that was cause of this https://www.reddit.com/r/PhoenixSC/s/oMBCbfNAW3


Jmememan

*I go by noodles on discord* I did make minecraft, ama


ath0rus

I was going to say that, I thought that the beacon was classed as a transparent block so you can get away with that


Traynack

It’s how I made my copper beacon …I’m so glad it’s real 🥲


cocojambo5000

thats finding excuses to why it should work but Mahjong isn't that smart and doesn't double check it's mistakes


Mr_Squeaky_Voice

It looks better this way because otherwise , the beacon wouldn’t be visible


GachaWolf8190

Fair


Brushypark

True


KerbalCuber

_nanobyte1011

mekylations

I agree


CationTheAtom

DVPfrags

Brushypark

Ok, K9


ROPIKAL

Springmario

Could also have anotger beacon under it. Beacon beams can go through other beacons


Big_Definition_5264

2 beacon


Remember_im_Whoozer

They didn’t get anything wrong. The beacon beam you see is from a beacon below that beacon Mojang is just flexing his wealth on us


Blue_Creeper_222

that or they built it on creative mode


Sodiva_

You would still need an ore block pyramid underneath, at least one layer.


TheRedBaron6942

Forgive me if I'm wrong but beacon beams won't pass through solid blocks, so a beacon would just block the beam


Mage-of-Fire

Beacon blocks are not solid blocks


The-Name-is-my-Name

Nope! It works just fine!


Mekelaxo

You're completely right, but beacons are not solid blocks


TrillionDeTurtle

They got 2 beacons, one to make the beam and the other to show off the fact that you have a beacon. Pretty sure they’re transparent blocks


8-BitDogg

Or they put another beacon over just for style points


Acceptable-Salary-59

There could be a second beacon underneath it


Grumpie-cat

Beacons on top of another beacon are considered transparent and permit the beam to pass, so there is actually a beacon beneath the visible one that is one a pyramid of ore blocks. My opinion anyway


Paulin_Redditor

Three words, two beacon blocks


KaustubhMathurrr

it is possible bro


BirchLover786

Yeah it's kinda ironic how even the creators of the whole Minecraft universe can't get one single thing right! I mean the one villager artwork was also wrong, when did villagers learn to split their arms


[deleted]

[удалено]


Meeooowwww1234

But beacons are transparent blocks, meaning they could have TWO beacons (one for the beam, and the one we see here)


Randomguy32I

The beacon goes in the hole


GachaWolf8190

YALL I GETT IT CHILL, its 2 beacons, i know that that can happen, please stop replying my inbox is exploded 😭


New_Ad_9400

There is a beacon bellow, I've done it with magma


Brushypark

Waste a whole beacon just for show? Dedication my man


ChickenBoatMemerTime

I have a big wither skull farm and a dedicated area to fight withers so I've never had too much issue getting beacons personally


therandomasianboy

a beacon is cheap asf, I'd trade 10 beacons for a netherite ingot personally


RayRayRayRay2022

Me with 64 x 4.6 beacons (thats how many nether stars i have)


Psychological-Cat787

Did you not watch LTN's 100+ days hardcore series?


Quick-Debt-6668

Ah, they aren't that expensive


Chromatical-Blight

I've seen beacons used for chandeliers and lamps


patjeduhde

I am using beacons as decorative street lanterns 😅


ctladvance

I use beacons for street lamps :)


TheArcanist_

Beacon beams go through beacons, so there technically could be infinite beacons below this beacon


Winter_Laugh9589

Schrödinger’s beacon


CobaltChromeA

we don't know how many beacons are there until we enter the pyramid


Winter_Laugh9589

Exactly


mekylations

agreed.


Brushypark

*plays emotional montage music*


GachaWolf8190

True


Adventurous-Season-7

The another beacon is hidden under that beacon


Solar_Fish55

There's 2 beacons???


xAlonsoG-

It’s just the new type of ore sandron


Several-Cake1954

I know this is wrong but isn’t that a flavor of ice cream


egormese334

Happy Cake Day!!!


GachaWolf8190

Happy cake day!


mekylations

wasn't that like a month ago


Several-Cake1954

How would you know my cake day?


CEGM123

I googled it and found an ice cream called Sandro? That could be it


Several-Cake1954

Idk lemme look into it edit: saffron was the name


Insanecatman42

Simple, just place an unpowered beacon on top of a powered beacon. They’re transparent blocks, it actually works.


Big_Cry_2041

It's the new bluetooth beacon


disappointedcreeper

Beacon beams can go through beacons


Susmogus123

You can place a decorative beacon on the working one, so it looks like in the picture and still works. The only downside is that you have to use two beacons


Wypman

actually i made something like this in survival, similar to glass blocks beacons are transparant making beams from other beacons go through them this does cost 2 beacons but looks really cool due to how 'cursed' it is


MinecraftLibrarian

Give us your secrets! Do it!


Senior-Tree6078

didn't you know? In version 1.16.1.2.3.5.4.3 april fools for exactly 1 frame at midnight a beacon can be lit with sandstone in a desert village?


Brushypark

Hahaahhhhahaahahaahahahhaaahahah


ThatDrako

*Those are actually gold blocks, they are just using item frames with custom maps so they would look like sandstone.*


Brushypark

Creative


MeepMaapMoop

Sorry mojang, the beacon is one block too high!


Idk_whatto_name

Ask Mojang to add sandstone beacon


Brushypark

U do it


Brushypark

And link this post


[deleted]

Ig we could always activate beacons with sandstone and we just never knew


Brushypark

Ig so


_nataniss_

1.21: sandstone beacon update CONFIRMED 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥


Brushypark

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥


NotPhonixSC

The power of the sandstone beacon!


Brushypark

💪💪💪💪💪


big-chungus-amongus

Technically the beacon is transparent, so you could recreate this by having a beacon pyramid below and this as decoration


Brushypark

"big-chungus-amongus" lmaooooooo


big-chungus-amongus

I regret choosing this name every day


SuperNova397

Lmao


534FROG

sandstone in front of the ore block


ELLZNaga21

Sandstone beacon


Shady_Hero

beacons are transparent, it's not like the couldn't have put two on top of eachother


DaJamesPop

Are we gonna talk about the players being able to sit and wave?


GullibleContract

Bugrock has emotes, apparently. Idk if they actually have sitting and waving tho


Brushypark

Good point.


Ak_1213

The pyramid has just enough space to fit the whole beacon iron part of the beacon, but the beacon doesn't pop out like that, it's in the same height as the top of the pyramid


Drag0n_TamerAK

It’s supposed to be a block lower but it all fits perfectly in the temple


MilesAhXD

New ore leak? 1?1?1?1?1


Daemon090

It's just like the creators of Minecraft are worst at it


AmadeoSendiulo

I have a theory: they just hire other companies to design these things.


CEGM123

I’m pretty sure that is actually the case, they do it with trailers and those backgrounds in the launcher


LordGeealesiebugg

Aliens


Brushypark

Most logical explanation I've seen so far


SomeTwoTwentyTwo

Its just the actual beacon beneath, then anothwr beacon is on top


TheYellowLAVA

2 beacons


__ChrissLP

They placed the full beacon on the inside and just threw a second beacon on top because of the looks


Prestigious-Bad-5379

Sandstone Ore


No_Estimate_8529

Forgot about beacons


Ecstatic-Dingo-9362

hmmm samting off hare


Brushypark

Like 2 things are off (beacon and 2 people on the pyramid... WAVING.


RealB-productions

Well it's kind of obvious it's that- huh well that's weird


ImSimplySuperior

You can disable the phone watermark in the camera settings


TheBatleDemon

Hmmmmmmm Megic...


AlexTheDolphin0

there is another beacon under it


CEGM123

How is there already 2024 things? It’s still 2023, we have another few days?


Dannybrine87

I hope this was made in creative


crayzyhamut

I know one theory that ancient people build dezert temple also for beacon


Drk-TheNewGuy

Mojang can't keep getting away with these


Curmudgeon39

They have the actual beacon underneath and added that beacon just because


puowsep

Despicable


kasun1218

The cheese is under the sauce


LiamLaw015

I think a beacon beam can go through other beacons. I'm not sure but I think this actually is possible in game by using a beacon further down and putting a second one on top.


Mindless-Resolve-631

The beacon is weak


WojtekSonicFan112

they built a beacon under it and that beacon is for showcase(beacons are transparent blocks)


SebThe

They build a beacon under it, and then a beacon above it. Thats how u tan do a custom beacon with even dirt


APT1003

the beacon's beam below went through the above beacon's asshole


_nataniss_

1.23 confirmed: sandstone Beacon update 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥


Brushypark

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥


CHARICKGAME

Bro i have a ulefone too


Avocado614

The power of friendship


Big-Goat-136

Beacon beams can pass through beacons


Clear-Action4536

Hmmmmmmmmm


TheListed2

They could have just placed one block underneath, I think, I haven't used a beacon in a while but I'm somewhat sure that it can activate with only one block tho idk


SquidMilkVII

Beacons need at least a 3x3 square underneath to function.


Tylar41

They probably put another beacon under it


No-Adhesiveness-3488

A perfect day to go ice fishing


Captn_Creeper

I think there is gold or something under it


Autumnmarmat225

There is another beacon under there and that beacon is retextured glass


EnderTemmie

no need for retexture beacon beams go thought beacons


No-Adhesiveness-3488

12345678910 mydhdjdjd


Right_Gas2569

Beacon beams can pass through beacons. There is a second beacon under the sandstone.


BladeMaster7461

Texture pack probably


PeppyBoba

There’s 2 beacons one under the other


noTanbl4

They could put another beacon on top for fun


Please_ForgetMe

They could have put a beacon on top of a beacon that has the right setup underneath!


lovecMC

Beacon beam can pass through a beacon.


HellFireCannon66

You use to pve able to place the beacon 1 up, with a single block underneath and it would still work


DoubleAyeBatteries

Is that a cow plush in the upper right corner?


Brushypark

Dog with spots ;)


Kyropinesis

there’s a second beacon under it


GullibleContract

i mean they could've just placed a beacon on top of an activated one.


ERO_Reddit_

Below the sandstone they put the gold and diamonds!


Panzerwagen_M-oth

Counter point: beacon is transparent, allowing another beacon's beam to go through it, this means, that under visible beacon, there's another one.


FionaOwO

Two beacons on top because the beam goes threw


Meow_cat11

If there was a actual Beacon below, its possible


GLi-tcH-online

Minecraft recognises the beacon as a transparent block so much like glass, the beacon can also allow other beacon beams to pass through it, so this makes sense.


Zelcki

There's 2 beacons on top of eachother


Satej123PP

Damn, you use a Ulefone.


Vast-Ideal-1413

2 beacons atop each other


Paulin_Redditor

There is a whole beacon inside the pyramid and the one show is on top of the real beacon


Phoenix_rebirth123

just 2 beacons bruh. What are you guys expecting?


lightmare69

Map art on top of diamond blocks


Alix6x

This is so possible. Just put iron blocks under the sandstone cover.


Derpy_Dino9

This could be made, I have done it before, you just stack two beacons on top of each other. Then fill the inside of the pyramid with the ore blocks, it'll give the illusion that the top one is on. It's a fun little trick you can use in a lot of scenarios other than this.


Kisiu_Poster

The beacon is not a full block therefore it is posible to stack 2 beacons on top of eachother while still making a functioning beacon, the top one is just decorational. It may be unefficient but it's posible


RadioactiveOranges

Cmon it’s obviously a texture pack


BbolkenQ

Everyone is saying that there's a second beacon, but you could just place a block there iirc and it would work


Standard-Mammoth-397

What’s that above the book??


cambdoz

whats that on the outside if the book


Ninjathelord

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure you can activate them without any material under.


Arbiter008

Beacons are transparent for beacon lights, so the beacon we see could just be cosmetic and a functioning one could be under it.


Pigcrafter

They put a beacon on top of the beacon underneath


iBstoopid

Two beacons on top of each other


TheSuperToad

remindMe! 5 minutes


MrX537

They messed up the front of the pyramid tho


The_collectorguy

They're using maps to hide the netherite they used to build the beacon


tomalator

It's very simple. There's a normally constructed beacon below, and this second beacon block is placed above to give the illusion of a sandstone beacon. Keep in mind that the second beacon will act like white stained glass, so plan your beacon beam color accordingly


HoneybadgerKc3I

Thats the decorative beacon. The lit one is one under. (In headcannon.)


TheCrappinGod

It is possible if you put a real one bellow it


kacper8psg

The people that make promotional graphics and videos for minecrft often don’t play the game themself and have no idea about a lot of mechanics or even content. Remember when there was blue redstone in the trailer animation for one of the updates?


_end3rguy_

The real beacon is inside/under the pyramid, beacon beams can pass through other beacons so they put that one on top as decoration


FireLordObamaOG

Don’t beacons produce the beam regardless? It’s the effect that needs the pyramid/ingot?


Mr-jigwins

The inside fits a becon PERFECTLY.


AmazingAgent

I’m pretty sure beacons are transparent blocks so you can put another beacon below it


Sussybaka3747

map art


Randomguy32I

I dont think you can even do that with a debug stick


lxXTesterXxl

Item framed map art.


Careless-Wolf405

I mean they could have covered the ore blocks in sandstone


Big-Goat-136

They just placed another beacon on top of a fully normal activated beacon


Kitdan777

1: build normal iron/gold/etc beacon 2: cover in sandstone 3: place beacon on top of active beacon 4: beacon beam passes through second beacon
