Why is there no new work for Windows?


There is no new work at all

Don't trust the server status numbers. They are almost never truly accurate on ANY BOINC project.

All work for this project was completed in November of 2021. The devs said that they would look at adding new tasks in the future, but for now, the project is shut down.

Hi Plejaden,
Sadly, there are no current plans to revive our full BOINC system due to lack of "reasonable" work to have it carry out now, and for reasons mentioned in my last News (and forum) post:

https://minecraftathome.com/minecrafthome/forum_thread.php?id=136

As Minecraft 1.19 has been released, if there is increased interest, time and knowledge about the changes to Minecraft (and how to quickly work around or with them with code) there may be discussions about what potential projects may be created, or revived.

The worlds in Minecraft are much different now both in code, "infiniteness" and complexity with the latest two updates, though within our Minecraft@Home Discord there are still smaller projects carried out by our coders, Minecraft fans and those with the resources to run the checks and calculations that bring us cool things such as the OneChunk Speedrun Seeds, and totally broken 12-eye End Portals as you may have seen over the past few months and year

Hi Hy,

You mentioned that 1.19 has been released and with it, a new menu screen as well. A possible idea for a future project may be to find the seed of this new menu screen? Just a shower thought. Thanks again for the past fun projects though! Got to see the seeds for myself especially with the tallest cactus one!
