Talk:Panorama

The old panorama is used in the New Nintendo 3DS Edition. https://web.archive.org/web/20230313030935/https://i.stack.imgur.com/4ODma.png --MCDiamond360 (talk) 17:05, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

Before Christmas in 2017, a panorama about Christmas was used in BE, But this panorama isn't integrated into the game files.

The rotation direction of the panorama in BE is different from that of the previous versions since BE beta 1.18.10.27 (from panorama_0 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3 to panorama_0 -> 3 -> 2 -> 1). --Minwtraft (talk) 18:26, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

Why is "Cubemap" bold? Usually when a word is bold it redirects to that page. Cubemap should redirect. Iuyfgdejkourfychnm (talk) 00:48, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

No, boldface text in the lead section is used to designate the topic of the article. In this case the article topic has two terms. It has nothing to do with redirects. Amatulic (talk) 15:30, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

The image at the top right appears to be a still when normally the panorama is shown animated in game. I edited the page to put a disclaimer on this, but the page was near immediately reverted. Why was it reverted? Matthew Cenance (talk) 15:59, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Just fyi, I am not the one who opened this proposal. I am simply creating this discussion because I am pretty sure a proposal like this requires consensus and there didn't seem to be any discussion opened regarding this issue. @User-12316399 opened the proposal for partitioning the Panorama article into three separate articles, those being Panorama, Historical panoramas, and Legacy Console Edition panoramas. The given reason is "Now that we have a panorama viewer, having all of these accessible on the same page is causing things to load much slower. Also, we don't have a page dedicated to LCE panoramas so far, and there are presumably enough t9 warrant their own page."

I personally support this change. What do other editors think? PlutonPerson (talk) 22:38, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

NmF (talk) 22:55, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

I'm neutral on splitting, but I do think this page desperately needs {{LoadBox}} or {{LoadPage}}. This page should not be trying to render all of the panoramas simultaneously. Rampage455 (talk) 23:28, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

LoadBox/LoadPage are basically universally a bad thing to put on a page. It makes the content not show on the page for search engines or ctrl+f unless you go through and click all the load buttons. There are much better ways to decrease load time without halfway hiding large parts. Mudscape 👁 Image

I think you would just need to use LoadBox for the Calculator template calls; all or most of the text could stay on the page. If we don't use something like LoadBox, how do we decrease load time for this particular page? I don't know exactly how the panoramaRenderer calculator works, but there are 27 instances of it being called. I don't know if that's 27 separate instances of the module always running, or if it stitches together 27 videos that are played on a loop. Although, I suppose we could also try to have most of the tables that contain the panoramas collapsed by default to see if that helps any. Rampage455 (talk) 01:01, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

Having it be collapsed by default is a great idea. Tho, I cant do it cuz im not that good at coding tables and such. I think you should do it. Cuz after thinking more about it, I do agree with @Zamburger that partitioning the article is just moving the issue elsewhere instead of fixing it PlutonPerson (talk) 10:50, 24 March 2025 (UTC)

I don't have strong opinions on the split, but if the only reason for doing so is that the page loads slower due to the calculators, then this just shifts the problem elsewhere rather than solving it. - Zamburger (talk) 09:27, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

I support. I am trying to make something in the style of the last tutorial world, and this would help immesurably. -Randy, RandyFromIdaho 22:49, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

There hasn't been a lot of activity on this topic, and I'd like for the split to happen. Here's hoping this gets revisited. There isn't a good reason to do the split, but there is also no reason to not, so I think it should happen. (Also we need fancy pano-veweers for LCE panos.) -Randy, RandyFromIdaho 02:31, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

 Support. This would also make the article more consistent with MCW:UPTODATE. Some articles warrant exception, but I don't think this is one of them; the historic and legacy console panoramas should split. – ZacNVR (talk) 08:43, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

This makes 5 supporters, including @User-12316399 (the original suggester). This seems like enough for me, but I haven't found any rules yet on what exactly a consensus is according to the wiki.

Also, I don't think the lag is a reason to not split the page. Even if it is just redirecting the problem, having less stuff to load will still decrease it. In addition, we have good reason to do it (complying with the style guide) and there is not really a reason to not do it.

In addition, we could do the fancy coding thing when we write the new page, so there is no lag and we comply. From what I can tell, doing it when we write the new page would be easier than doing it here and then splitting some time in the future (idk, the fancy stuff is wayyy past my knowledge.)

-Randy, RandyFromIdaho 12:49, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

Go ahead and split it. Nobody objects, and neither do I. Two months is plenty of time for people to find this discussion and weigh in. I've split an article before when it got too long or busy, which is why we no longer have one tree article, but separate articles on different trees. ~Anachronist (talk) 04:06, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

I don't think I have the ability to split it while retaining edit history. -Randy, RandyFromIdaho 12:55, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

The edit history would be retained in one of the articles. That's all you need.

The current article could retain its name and all the history. It would become a disambiguation page that has links to the other articles with edition-focused content. ~Anachronist (talk) 14:36, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

Ok. I might do that Saturday (I have finals rn) -Randy, RandyFromIdaho 15:38, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

No hurry. Finals have priority. As they say on Wikipedia: there is no deadline for this. ~Anachronist (talk) 16:11, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

I'll create the dedicated pages, but I'd need help transferring the fancy stuff. Code is not my forte. -Randy, RandyFromIdaho 16:52, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

To everyone else: Please help! I most certainly cannot do everything needed, and will likely forget something. The links at the top of the page should direct you to WIP pages. -Randy, RandyFromIdaho 17:18, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

You need to learn to use the source editor. The visual editor isn't useful for moving material from one page to another. I just did that, moving historical panoramas to Historical panoramas, adding a references section at the bottom, and putting a link in this article to that new page. ~Anachronist (talk) 19:28, 25 May 2025 (UTC)

There are a bunch of panoramas that are only available on specific editions. A section for Education Edition and Legacy Console Edition panoramas would be great as well, for consistency

It would probably look something like this:
- A section where all panoramas from both editions can be seen
- Java Edition panorama
- Bedrock Edition panorama
- Education Edition panorama
- Legacy Console Edition panorama

bogical (talk) 07:53, 3 May 2025 (UTC)

I do not agree. 1 big one would be easy to understand. Jernicol (talk) 23:04, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

I think it would be better if we split the page into Panorama, Historical Panoramas, and LCE Panorama as sugggested above. Then the pages could be split into the relating sections you proposed. -Randy, RandyFromIdaho 13:22, 14 May 2025 (UTC)

Why do the LCE panos only get a mention in the history section? They should have the fancy viewer things like the others do. I'm not experienced enough to know how to fix it. -Randy, RandyFromIdaho 22:52, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

Exactly, Legacy Console Edition deserves its own section, with a description about how it works bogical (talk) 08:24, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

I can confirm this. It uses {{Calculator|panoramaRenderer}}, but I can't find anything about this at Calculators, or the modules this template uses. @Delycache and @User-12316399, you added these calculators to the page.

It combines multiple images to make it appear as one image. BDJP ^(t|c) 04:42, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

it says that it was added in 25w20a but it also says it is in 25w15a 2A00:23C5:6A39:A801:A47A:1813:84E0:2434 07:05, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

Its first release came with 25w20a, but 25w15a-25w19a appear to have been modified to have this new panorama as well. This is the case for other panoramas as well, but it could probably be worded better. – ZacNVR (talk) 08:35, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

Re:#3237817: The history table used dates instead of the snapshot versions as they were asset updates and affected previous versions as well. I think both date and snapshot should be present, really.  Nixinova  T ⁄ C  09:34, 28 October 2025 (UTC)

I think it's a bit unclear in the article about how the panoramas in Previews and Betas work, since there's a Preview panorama and an update Panorama for the update that's currently only in Previews, do they both show up sometimes? What's the rules for them? 👁 Image
FireDragons52 19:43, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

If you fully read the Description and Minecraft Preview sections, it becomes clear that on Preview with Fancy graphics, that savanna panorama shows, and with Vibrant Visuals the update panorama shows. The non-VV update panorama only shows in release versions. I think the second paragraph in Description is pretty clear about this, but if you have a suggestion to reword it please let me know.

19:56, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

Oh I think I got it now, I think my main point of confusion was the non-VV panorama being listed but I'm guessing now that's just pulled from the files directly and not yet visible in-game. 👁 Image
