クリスマスで Mojang のブログにも急に投稿が増えていて少々ペースが遅くなってしまっているが、Skin Studio Encore に関する続報についての投稿。セールの期間が12月31日までというのが多かったので、一応まだセール期間中だと思う。
Win an Xbox One with Minecraft Skin Studio Encore
Hello again!
I just posted about Minecraft Skin Studio Encore, but I have even more exciting news to share. Design a festive skin using the app and you’ll be in with a chance of winning an Xbox One!
Here’s how the competition will work:
Submit a festive skin to Minecraft: Skin Studio Encore between December 22nd and January 5th. Include #xmas in the title!
Don’t forget to include #xmas in the title of your skin. That part is super important!
The more festive the skin, the better! Santas, Snowmen, Elves, Mince Pies, the lot.
All users can “Like” their favourite festive skin. Whoever gets the most likes by the 5th of January wins.
The winner of the competition gets an Xbox One and Minecraft: Xbox One Edition! Nice!
Terms & conditions and the full entry details will be available in-app.
Good luck everyone! Get creative and have a great holiday season!

またまた、こんにちわ!

To celebrate two years of skin sharing, Minecraft Skin Studio has been completely redesigned!
Since the release of Skin Studio over 900,000 skins have been created, almost 3,000,000 comments written, and over 2,500,000 likes cast. Not too shabby. A lot has changed in Minecraft since then too, so rather than patch the older version, the good people at 57digital have remade their app from the ground up.
A completely new user interface and easier to use editing system
Full support for both Steve & Alex
3D Previews everywhere – including while editing your skin!
Uses the new Minecraft API for importing a skin by username
Loads of advanced tools (including the much requested copy & paste!)
Over 900,000 community skins
The ability to submit your own creation to the community or download & modify!
Upload your skin to minecraft.net and change your skin for PC/Mac.
A trial version of Skin Studio is also available. Skin Studio Lite gives you the chance to design a full Minecraft Skin, but with slightly limited tools. It’s also worth pointing out that Skin Studio Pro users get the Encore upgrade for free! Just go to the updates tab on the app store.
Skin Studio のお試しバージョンも利用できます。Skin Studio Lite は全てのマインクラフトのスキンのデザインする事ができる少しだけ機能が限定されたバージョンです。Skin Studio Pro のユーザーが無料でアップグレードできる点もまた注目する価値があります。App ストアでアップデートタブへ行くだけです。
Just in time before the holidays, we have the pre-release for 1.8.2 ready. There are some bug fixes and performance tweaks we wanted to get out to you before most of us leave for vacation during the Christmas holidays.
As always, there are some bugs fixed:
[Bug MC-51573] – Hostile mobs continue to follow/attack you in spectator mode
[Bug MC-65697] – Explosion force on entities is directionally biased
[Bug MC-66089] – Explosion physics changed, range of some TNT cannons greatly reduced
Aside from bug fixes and performance increases this update includes cookies, milk and of course lots of hugs. Don’t open your gifts before Christmas!
The Minecraft team and everybody else at Mojang wish you happy holidays and a great transition into the new year!
Did you enjoy Info Quest II? I hope so. It took up a lot of resources.
In other news, we’re collaborating with Telltale Games to create Minecraft: Story Mode! Here are some bullet points to celebrate!
Minecraft: Story mode will be a narrative-driven video game created by Telltale Games. It will be about Minecraft.
Mojang is collaborating with Telltale and members of the community to make Minecraft: Story Mode as Minecrafty as possible.
The first episode will be released some time in 2015, and will be available on Xbox consoles, PlayStation consoles, PC, Mac, iOS, and Android-based devices.
Minecraft: Story Mode will be released episodically, just like The Wolf Among Us, The Walking Dead, or the recent Tales from the Borderlands, which is another developer-collaboration series between Telltale Games and Gearbox Software.
We’re not intending on creating an “official” story for Steve, or explaining the world of Minecraft in detail. It will be a cool game.
The Minecraft 2 thing was a joke. No really. It was a joke.
マイクラのストーリーモードはエピソード風にリリースされる予定で、「The Wolf Among Us」や「ウォーキング・デッド(The Walking Dead)」、または最近の「ボーダーランズ(Tales from the Borderlands)」のように。「Tales from the Borderlands」は他のディベロッパー Telltale Games と Gearbox Software の間でコラボしたシリーズ。
