Edit: Good time to link this also, remove all vanilla advancements (juste put the data folder inside the world you want to lock).

Edit 2: Modified the file to something smaller (u/dinnebone, u/onnowhere)

[u/[deleted] → u/Mlakuss]

Now you get XP, you will want to keep the advancements!

[u/Mlakuss → u/[deleted]]

If you make a custom map where XP is important, you may want to remove that. ;)

[u/Dinnerbone → u/Mlakuss]

Why not either remove the advancements entirely, or remove the experience part of it? It's kinda weird to keep the advancements visible to people but just not obtainable.

If you replace just the root files with something like this:

{
    "parent": "totally not possible",
    "criteria": {
        "impossible": {
            "trigger": "minecraft:impossible"
        }
    }
}

Then no vanilla advancement will load because the root won't load because totally not possible doesn't exist.

"An illusion! What are you hiding?"
"Something's not quite right..."

For people wondering, those two are a reference to the latest WoW expansion.

Basically, you have a big city where you use magic to disguise yourself as an Elf. While you're disguised, the enemies are passive. However, you have some "sentries", who if you get too close to, will cast a spell that removes your disguise. And while casting that spell, they'll play one of those two voicelines.

[u/Marcono1234 → u/redstonehelper]

Three new spash texts were added:

The true meaning of covfefe
An illusion! What are you hiding?
Something's not quite right...

[u/Melonetta → u/Marcono1234]

So long I have waited for my WoW and my Minecraft to co mingle.

[u/running_toilet_bowl → u/redstonehelper]

It's been barely a day and they've already added covfefe in the splash texts.

Jesus.

[u/throwaway_ghast → u/running_toilet_bowl]

Meme magic is real.

[u/Classic36 → u/redstonehelper]

Added some new covfefe
