How to get coding with Minecraft Pi on a Pi 5.

 


Here are the steps needed to get Minecraft Pi working a Pi:

1.When you chose which image you are going to install make sure its the 32 bit 64 bi doesn't work with Minecraft Pi.

2. Using terminal install PiApps by running the following command:

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Botspot/pi-apps/master/install | bash


3.Once installed open PyApps > games > Minecraft Pi (modded) and install

4. Head to terminal again and paste the following command:

cd ~ cd Desktop git clone https://github.com/AdventuresInMinecraft/AdventuresInMinecraft-Pi

5. This should put a folder on your folder desktop called: AdventuresInMinecraft-Pi

6. Next go the following directory: AdventuresInMinecraft-Pi/MyAdventures/mcpi

7. Open the util.py file in Idle or equivalent IDE.

8. Locate the following line of code: collections.iterable and replace it with collections.abc.iterable

9. You should now be able to create, save and run MCPI code from the following folder:

/AdventuresInMinecraft-Pi/MyAdventures

Raspberry Pi 5

 




usecases 1 week in:

  • Marking work on Class notebook on office 365
  • whilst listening to you tube 
  • editing a blog 
  • organizing a raspberry jam 
  • responding to school email through office 365.


In summary 1 week in multi tasking on basic school and teacher based tasks are now completed on my pi 5 rather than my school laptop. There is inevitably things I have to do on m school laptop like accessing SIM's and other things but this Pi 5 is very much going to reduce my dependence and need to bring my Laptop  home. In summary so far Pi 5 and not even over clocked is a game changer....



Over!
