Versão	Data de Adição	Resumo das Adições	Download
1.3.2 Pre-release	August 14, 2012	Large Oak Trees now generate with sideways logs. You can now toggle showing server addresses in the server list using the F1 key Bug fixes: Fixed players sometimes falling out of the world when entering the Nether after having been there before in the same session Fixed players taking damage when water pushes them into corners Fixed various uncommon crash bugs	Client Server (or .exe)
1.3.1 Pre-release	July 30, 2012	Bug fixes: Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Players will occasionally fall into the void when entering/leaving the Nether.	Client Server (or .exe)
1.3 Pre-release	July 26, 2012	The block-breaking animation is now shown while the GUI is hidden. TNT no longer does damage to players in peaceful difficulty. Respawning in superflat is no longer random. Bug fixes: Fixed a few misalignments and oddities in the item spritesheet and the creative mode's inventory's graphics. Fixed a crash bug. Fixed the chest armor slot being inaccessible in Creative mode's survival inventory tab. Fixed rotated wooden logs mined using Silk Touch enchanted tools dropping as rotated wooden logs. Fixed being unable to place half slabs in the small gaps between another half slab and the side of another block. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): There is a visual bug when trying to push someone off a cliff, they fall off then warp back Sometimes when pushing someone off a cliff they do fall – you are not meant to be able to push people as of 12w23a It appears to be a server-side feature only, yet has not been applied to the client so far, as you can still push mobs or other entities in singleplayer It also appears to be a PvP-only feature. In SMP, you can still push mobs and entities too. When standing still in the same place as another player the other player glitches about Player occasionally flies in SMP (by tapping the space bar 2 times like in creative mode)[carece de fontes] Player loses all XP when leaving The End but when logging out then back in the player regains the lost XP Player occasionally gets hurt from touching a wall mainly when being pushed by water into a block. Player can be damaged when standing in front of a villager attempting to open a door. This may tie into the suffocation bug listed above, or might be something with the way the villager opens the door. Sometimes source water would slant asif it were moving	Client Server (or .exe)
12w30e	July 25, 2012	Bug fixes: Fixed Cocoa Beans planting on rotated wood blocks Fixed duplication bug in creative Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Player occasionally flies in SMP (caused by double-jumping [jumping while in the air during a jump]).	Client Server (or .exe)
12w30d	July 25, 2012	Added rotatable wood blocks Strongly decreased the amount of experience obtained from furnaces Bug fixes: Fixed Dragon Eggs displaying as lava blocks while falling. This extends to other non-standard blocks displaying incorrectly when tiled on FallingSand entity Fixed thrown splash potions not saving their type when reloading the world Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Creative Inventory duplicates items when moving them from the quick bar to the Survival Inventory Mining rotated wooden blocks will give you their rotated forms, but work fine when placed vertically.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w30c	July 24, 2012	Bug fixes: Fixed piston block animation bug Fixed rain particles in certain biomes Fixes for a few uncommon crashes This includes Mob Spawners set to spawn FallingSand entity crashing the game Fixes for minor text bugs, and portal placement Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Sometimes terrain might fail to generate. (Ex. An NPC Village might have its farm disoriented or a house might be missing. The stairs could be on the gravel without a house. When a dragon egg teleports from being touched to a location not directly touching the ground, it will appear as a lava source block until settling. This has to do with FallingSand entity using the incorrect tile data visually when active for all blocks except sand and gravel.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w30b	July 23, 2012	Bug fixes: Fixed null pointer exception. Fixed being unable to right-click on blocks. Fixed chests stacked on top of other chests not opening. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): If you had a score of 999 points and you died, it says you have 0 points on the You Died! screen. Players sitting in a boat or minecart appear to be not moving and sometimes even crouching. (this can only be seen by other people) When standing in the Nether and teleporting to another player standing in the Overworld you will be left in the Nether at the other player's coordinates. The loading bar doesn't show up when creating or entering a world. When respawning, there's a chance you will fall into the void. World holes appear occasionally.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w30a	July 23, 2012	Made creepers stronger. Depending on difficulty, creeper damage is scaled now. Easy: ~50% less damage. Normal: same damage as before. Hard: ~33% more damage than before. "In full diamond armor + hard difficulty a creeper can knock you down to 2 hearts". Creeper explosions, Fire Charge explosions, and TNT give off a knockback. Stairs, when placed on the upper half of a block's side, will now be placed upside-down In F3 mode, the y coordinate now shows both the feet level and the eye level. Survival mode's command: /gamemode 3 is changed to /gamemode 0 Added Snooper Settings. Allows you to toggle whether your data are sent to Mojang for analysis and improvements, shows which data will be sent to Mojang. Improved performance. Accelerated chunk loading. Decreased lag spike frequency. Made the Nether less laggy. Made chat work smoothly even when the server is lagging. Decreased unnecessary world updates. Decreased packets sent between client and server. Added Vertical Synchronization. Has to be toggled manually in options.txt. Fullscreen mode setting is now persistent Has to be toggled manually in options.txt. Bug fixes: Fixed existing signs not showing text. Fixed monster spawners all looking like pig spawners. Fixed ⌘ Cmd + C, ⌘ Cmd + x and ⌘ Cmd + V not working on Mac OS X. Fixed sneaking players' nameplates not staying hidden when loading the chunks the sneaking players are in. Fixed multiple chunks often not displaying. Fixed higher server-set view distances instantly kicking joining players. Fixed sections above Y = 191 becoming invisible when loading worlds. Fixed not completely generated chunks not updating to visually when walking into them. Fixed compasses not pointing to spawn but to X=8 & Z=8 after respawning. Fixed other players' fishing lines looking like they start from their feet. Fixed a bug with Unbreaking-enchanted tools and destroying blocks.[carece de fontes] Fixed being able to move LAN servers in the server list and crashing the game. Fixed opening SP worlds to LAN, saving and quitting it leaving the server running and showing up in the server list. Fixed pushing a minecart with the movement keys causing the camera to shake in the direction pressed. Fixed potion effects losing their graphical effects when traveling between dimensions. Fixed Ghast's fireballs getting stuck mid-air when unloading their chunk, might apply to fire charges and blaze's fireballs as well. Fixed the last slot in the opened creative inventory's hotbar being one pixel too short on all but the survival inventory tabs and a few pixels being off on the survival inventory tab. Fixed blocks disappearing when you placing them under yourself and jumping. Fixed the client trying to trample crops instead of letting the server dictate trampling. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Frequent null pointer exception. Unable to right-click on blocks. chests stacked on top of other chests not opening.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w27a	July 5, 2012	Performance improvements, including reduced CPU, RAM & bandwidth requirements.[carece de fontes] Updated pistons to make them less error-prone, thus they also appear to update slower. This also altered the way pistons work, so you might have to adapt your repeater delays and similar. For this change, pistons now take 2 redstone ticks (4 game ticks) to expand, but they still retract instantly. Added /debug <start|stop> command. Signs are stackable up to 16. Crafting them now gives 3 signs instead of 1 with the same recipe. Creative mode inventory now shows potion effects. Boats now drop the boat item when destroyed by a player. Gaining experience from mining ore is now different for each type of ore (mining coal ore will give you the least amount while diamond ore & emerald ore will give the most amount of XP) Nether Wart can now grow in the Overworld and The End. Bug fixes: Newly added wooden stairs will now burn. Fixed /kill not working. Fixed powering specific glitched pistons crashing the game. Fixed a visual bug causing pistons to be partially invisible or in the wrong location momentarily. Fixed being able to place portals in the Nether in locations where they would end up in illegal locations in the overworld. Fixed the game crashing when publishing SP worlds with certain language settings. Fixed players on minecarts, boats or pigs and spider jockeys not being displayed in the correct location. Fixed a bug with dispensers. Fixed /say not accepting some strings form the console, often triggering the help dialogue. Fixed being able to transmute blocks to certain data values using an orientation-dependent tripwire bug. Fixed drinking potions in creative not consuming the potions, but still giving empty bottles. Fixed signs sometimes not saving the text when placing them. Fixed torches at the top of 1x1 vertical shafts not lighting up their own block. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): All text on the signs is gone upon loading the world, the text is actually still saved but not shown. Additionally, pigs show in all spawners. Both have been confirmed fixed for next snapshot. The snapshot may give "Internal Server Error" randomly, kicking the player. Quickly reconnecting may result in a crash of the Minecraft client. When the server is set to spawn-monsters=false The server still naturally spawns them. All blocks above coordinate y:192 may become "phantom blocks" and will disappear. They still exist to where you will have glitchy movements when touching the block. This is like the bug with the signs. The blocks still exist and will hopefully visibly reappear in the next snapshot. When using a Silk Touch pickaxe on a lighted Redstone Lamp, the drop will be a lighted Redstone Lamp, which is not stackable with the normal/not lighted lamps. The fishing rod bug still isn't fixed. The line appears to be at the player's feet when viewed from others in SMP.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w26a	June 27, 2012	Monster Spawners now support extra information for the mobs it spawns. This allows unmodified games to have spawners for special variants of mobs. The player still requires external or modified means to set these parameters, though. Some examples of what Monster Spawners can spawn are Charged Creepers, Endermen holding specific blocks, Green Robe Villagers, and Villagers with custom trade offers. Performance improvement. Monsters can now spawn on upside down slabs Silverfish under the poison effect will spawn Silverfish from nearby Monster Eggs more quickly. Bug fixes: The spruce, birch and jungle wooden stairs can now be crafted. Removed the sand and gravel duplication glitch. In creative mode, destroying a TNT block no longer drops a TNT block. Fixed changing the name of a world, loading that world, saving and quitting it undoing the world rename. Fixed the game crashing when it automatically selects the "Scanning for LAN Worlds" item in the server list and you delete it. Fixed the arrow representing the player on the map item not pointing in the right direction Fixed clicking "Save and Quit" or "Disconnect" twice quickly crashing the game. Fixed the SMP server fairly regularly dropping all players and showing many NullPointerExceptions in the console every few hours. Fixed save files being closed each time the world was auto-saved. Fixed placing a piston in front of another which is powered, but not extended, causing the placed piston to become broken and have the same texture on all sides. Removed the powered rail duplication glitch. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Shift clicking on armor on the survival tab in the creative menu does not work. The Spruce, Birch and Jungle stairs cannot be set on fire with flint and steel. Commands normally for all players (/me, /kill, /tell) are now for OPs only. /kill and /tell do not work at all. Snow on top of blocks that normally allows beds to be placed prevents beds from being placed. A lot of smaller performance bugs. Blocks are sometimes incorrectly displayed to the client in Single Player. Upon punching/breaking the blocks, they will update. This is caused by the chunks that are generated without features first, then later regenerated with ores, mineshafts, etc. but not being updated to the client. Increased smooth lighting errors on newly rendered chunks. This may only occur on certain graphic cards (AMD) as it's a rendering error. The POV is reset to normal upon reboot of the client. Increased chunk errors; these chunk errors cause lag. This also may only occur on certain graphic cards (AMD) as it's a rendering error.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w25a	June 21, 2012	Added an "Open to LAN" menu in the in-game menu, which allows players to open their world to other players. In the menu, the player can choose to turn cheats on or off, and choose the game mode. The multiplayer menu now scans for LAN servers. Villagers may remove a trade option after it has been used at least 3 times. Added wooden stairs for the remaining three wood types (spruce, birch and jungle). Redstone (including repeaters, torches, levers, and pressure plates), torches and rails can now be placed on top of upside down slabs and stairs. Removed the downwards knockback while drowning. Pigs now drop 1-3 porkchops instead of 0-2. Potentially improved memory usage. “A lot of smaller changes and fixes”. The /tp command now allows teleporting to specified coordinates. The syntax for this is /tp [target player] <x> <y> <z>. The other functionality of the /tp command is still there. The "sky" in The End has changed; it is now purple instead of greenish. Slimes spawning in Superflat world type has reduced. Arrows shot while in Creative Mode can be picked up if approached. However, the player will not receive the arrow item when doing so. Bug fixes: A player's Ender Chest storage is no longer wiped on respawning. Fixed pistons not pushing back players Fixed a crash bug when typing /time set day Fixed a freeze bug when opening the texture pack folder from in-game Fixed published games apparently staying open for visitors when the host leaves Fixed Villagers not showing hearts around them when mating Fixed respawning causing your skin to be set to the default until you leave and come back Fixed being unable to hear TNT from more than 16 blocks away Fixed being able to use bone meal in a dark room Notable bugs (Complete bug list): The three new types of wooden stairs cannot be crafted. When creating a world, using punctuation (./:"*><?) will appear as _ unlike previous versions. (E.g. 1.3 will appear as 1_3) (?) Impossible to rename a world in game, one must edit the folder name in the minecraft saves directory. The world name is always replaced by the folder name after playing in the concerned world. Single player freezes at moments, does not always play sounds, and is much laggier than before on some computers. The three new stairs cannot be set on fire with flint and steel. Single Player can crash on some computers after approx. five minutes. Sometimes this issue can be fixed by hosting as a LAN world.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w24a	June 14, 2012	Allowed those connected to a player's LAN network to join SP games The player can now use “/publish” to open your single-player game for LAN players to join. This is still very much work in progress, so it lacks some necessary settings such as what game mode players will get, and if they should be able to use cheats or not. Also, the “/publish” command is temporary, since the player can not even access it if they have not enabled cheats (LAN connections will be GUI based in the future) Added the /tp command from multiplayer to singleplayer, allowing teleporting between players. The player can now place Levers on the underside of blocks, upside-down. Improved Ender Chests Now has an inventory per player and not per world. Also, knocking down the chest will break it into 8 obsidian, unless the player has Silk Touch enchantment Updated language files End Portal blocks now have a tooltip The texture pack folder button now works on Mac. A lot of smaller changes and fixes. Bug fixes: Fixed Ender Pearls and Eye of Ender not aligning properly in the inventory Fixed the double chest GUI having the caption "Large Chest" in all languages Fixed the "Destroy Item" tooltip appearing in other pages of the inventory occasionally Partially remedied bug when Minecraft does not save the player's progress, stops generating chunks, and freezes all the mobs. This still occurs sometimes. Fixed the Ender Dragon not dealing any damage to the player after it has been hit once Fixed explosions not pushing back players. Fixed buckets not picking up or placing water within the spawn protection. Fixed losing the items in the second trade box if the player exits a trade with a Villager Fixed missing sounds: Fixed water-movement sound. Fixed fire sound. Fixed extinguish sound. Fixed Nether Portal sound Fixed lava-stagnant sound. Fixed lava-droplet sound. Fixed attempting to use a Tripwire Hook when right clicking. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): When the player dies or leaves the End, the items in the Ender Chest will also be gone. Tripwire connections between two tripwire hooks must have all tripwire either on a non-solid block, or on a solid block, or else the connection will not work. Sometimes entities disappear. The lightning sound effect does not work	Client Server (or .exe)
12w23b	June 7, 2012	Bug fixes: Fixed frequent null pointer exceptions in survival mode Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Because Singleplayer acts similar to Multiplayer, Minecraft sometimes doesn't save your progress, or it may just stop generating chunks and freeze all the mobs.[carece de fontes]	Client Server (or .exe)
12w23a	June 7, 2012	Enchantment levels are slightly exponential again It now takes 825 experience to reach level 30. The first 16 levels are linear, while level 17+ require more points per level to the maximum level of 30 (although one can still have more than 30 XP levels to spend). Added End Portal block to creative inventory. Tripwire adjusted Tripwire is now activated by most entities, including arrows (but not an eye of ender or a Bottle o' Enchanting). The max distance has been increased to 40 blocks. Boats adjusted Boats can accelerate to faster than previous speeds. Boats are now easier to control. Wooden pressure plates detect arrows. A lot of smaller changes and fixes. Texture Packs that are in folders and not in a zip file are recognized as a texture pack. Texture Pack image is displayed for folder-based texture packs. The player can now see the cracking effect on blocks when other players mine blocks in multiplayer. Stairs now have the correct hitbox. Removed Debug Features: Pressing F no longer reloads chunks Bug fixes: Fixed a bug when pistons pushed a wire. Villagers procreate again. Weather transitions are back. Slime and Magma Cube jumping animations have been fixed. Armor and Tool enchantments now show to other players on multiplayer. Players are now able to skip the End credits again. Pumpkins now face the correct direction on the player's head. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): In some cases when writing on a sign and clicking done the text is deleted. Repairing items using creative mode in the inventory crafting grid will duplicate the item. Frequent null pointer exceptions in survival mode	Client Server (or .exe)
12w22a	May 31, 2012	Trading with Villagers has been updated Villagers can now trade all sorts of items with you (for example, 1 emerald + 10 gravel -> 3 flint) Some villagers will offer to enchant items (e.g. 3 emerald + 1 iron pickaxe -> 1 iron pickaxe with Fortune I) Enchantment system has been rebalanced The maximum enchantment level has been lowered from 50 to 30. As a result enchantment tables now require only 15 bookcases around them to allow maximum level enchantments. With a full enchantment table set with bookshelves, at the bottom of the 3 enchantments, it always shows you the highest number possible Using level 30 enchantments, the player has a lot more luck; almost all items get at least 2 enchantments Various actions will now reward the player with Experience Orbs, such as mining ores (except Gold Ore and Iron Ore), using furnaces, and getting achievements Levels are now awarded linearly. It takes 17 experience to go up one level. Shift-clicking now works with enchantment tables. Smelting in a furnace with a lava bucket now leaves an empty bucket for the player to retrieve. Added Jungle temples. Added Tripwire Hooks. String can now be placed to create a tripwire between the hooks Added potions to the Creative inventory; found in "brewing" category. Added Block of Emerald. Added delete item, armor and crafting to survival inventory when in creative. Pausing now works again in singleplayer. Some minor terrain changes. Added an "adventure" game mode (/gamemode 2). The player cannot break or place any blocks. The player can interact with any blocks, like doors and levers, and can buy from Villagers. The player can still damage mobs. Added Silverfish cobblestone and Stone Brick Egg blocks to the Creative inventory. Rain will slowly drip through leaves. Extremely rarely, Nether Portals will spawn Zombie Pigmen. When exposed to rain, cauldrons have a possibility of slowly filling with water. Blocks seen in inventory are oriented to the right instead to the left. Half-slabs can now be placed upside-down when pointing at the upper half of the side of a block. This does not work with stairs. Debug Features: Pressing F will reload the chunks. Bug fixes: In the redstone tab of the creative inventory, the redstone torch is now on instead of being off. In the decoration tab of the creative inventory, the redstone torch has been removed. Fixed the size of slimes which was sometimes wrong in the previous snapshot. Fully charged arrows now show their particle effect again. Arrows are now stuck at the correct position in the block they hit. The language English (US) is available again. Fixed Enderman often not shaking and opening their jaws when looked at. Fixed repeaters sometimes being stuck when loading the chunks they are in. The Search tab does not automatically open up unless the player presses their chat key, allowing the inventory to be closed with the normal inventory key again. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Because the max enchantment level is now 30, it is only possible to get some enchantments such as Sharpness V or Efficiency V with Golden sword or Golden Tools. (Don't know if this is a bug.) Water or lava cannot be used near the original spawn, even when there is no spawn protection (like in multiplayer.) When accidentally shift-clicking a stack of items into the enchantment table, all but one of the stack is destroyed forever. After exiting the End, you cannot skip the credits and you become stuck on a scrolling, bright white screen after the credits end. NPC Villagers don't repopulate. Duplication bug when a block with a data value is pushed into a Tripwire the data value gets removed and the block changes e.g. Birch wood turns to Oak wood. Tripwire breaks if a solid block below it is broken. When wearing a pumpkin it is sideways on your head. It also happens with Snow Golems. This is most likely caused by the above feature of the new block orientation. When closing the trading GUI, any items left in the right trading box, will be deleted and do not drop. Duplication bug when crafting in the survival tab of the creative inventory. You will receive the items as normal but when you exit the inventory you will drop the block you were crafting with. e.g. you craft a diamond block back into diamonds: you receive both the diamonds and the diamond block upon exiting the inventory. When typing select words on a sign, the sign will appear blank after you click done. Option + Tab button works as a List players button instead of just Tab button in multiplayer on Mac OS X Lion client When placing water, water won't place many times. You can get the water back out every block. Very often, Minecraft doesn't save what you have made. (Don't know if this is a bug.) If you drink a potion in creative mode, the potion stays in your inventory, but it will create another empty bottle somewhere else in your inventory. The "tell", "me", and "kill" commands are OP-only in SMP. Non-op players in SMP attempting to issue server commands no longer generate messages on the server console (this breaks some server wrappers). Server actions are broadcast to non-OP players Fire and lava sounds are missing.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w21b	May 25, 2012	There were actually two versions of this snapshot, and the original version is no longer available. The old one had translation griefings, and one of the translators was banned. New inventory screen in Creative mode. Blocks and items are sorted by category, each category in its own tab. The categories are: Building Blocks Decoration Blocks Redstone Transportation Miscellaneous Foodstuffs Tools Combat Brewing Materials The inventory can be searched for specific items: just start typing while in the inventory screen. The search results will be displayed in the Search Items tab. The player's survival mode inventory is accessible via a tab with the chest as its icon. Brewed potions will not be included in their own category. To close the new inventory window you must press 'Esc'. Using the default inventory key does not currently work. Added Monster Egg (Silverfish blocks) to Creative inventory. Saving and Loading chunks is slightly faster. Chainmail Armor is now available in-game. The F3 menu no longer has the graphs. Bug fixes: Removed Server Jar dependency in Single Player, again. Updated language files to correct the diamond/emerald mix-up. Emerald Ore is now green instead of red. Added a crafting recipe for sandstone stairs. Added the new Golden Apple to the inventory. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Using a Book and Quill in SSP will use up the item, thus destroying what you have written so far. The item works just fine in SMP. Cannot rename any world when playing single player. When generating a world or exiting a world, the "saving chunks" and "loading chunks" is absent. Pressing F2 to take a screenshot on Creative Mode's Inventory will cause it to switch to the Search Tab. Slimes do not always appear to be the size they really are; for instance, a slime that is the size of a tiny slime may have the health, drops, and slime-spawning abilities of a big slime. Any size can appear to be any size. English (US) is missing from the language selection screen. The on-state Redstone Torch can be found in the "Decoration Blocks" tab, instead of the "Redstone" tab. Meanwhile, the off-state Redstone Torch can be found in the "Redstone" tab. When buckets are stacked and you pick up a liquid, all the buckets disappear except one bucket which will be holding the liquid. Soul Sand cannot be found in the creative inventory (even with the search feature) The /me command is now for ops only in multiplayer The /say command does not work if any of the words are one letter long Chunk errors are very common. Mobs that have more than one skin will always be seen using the default skin (such as sheep and villagers). Reloading the world while near the mob can fix this. Redstone torches will become unresponsive after changing the time with the /time set" command. The button on the death screen of a Hardcore game displays "deathScreen.leaveServer". When in creative mode and your looking in your inventory and you shift click for an item to move to your hot bar, it cant be seen unless you re-click the inventory tab. In the new inventory, selecting a building block will darken the "Decoration Blocks" tab and vice-versa.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w21a	May 24, 2012	Added Ender Chest. On SMP, the Ender Chest's contents will be the same for all players on a server. Added emerald. Added emerald ore. Added villager trading. Made buckets stackable. Added snow to Creative Inventory. While sitting inside of a minecart pushing the directional keys will make it move the direction you are pressing. This will only work while the minecart is sitting on rails. NPC Villages change style according to their biome. Stars are more realistic. They are now slightly smaller and slightly brighter. Changed gravel texture. Improved Options menu. Added pyramids. Added a second Golden Apple made with Blocks of Gold. After being consumed, the player receives 30 second Regeneration IV, plus Resistance and Fire Resistance for 5 minutes. Added sandstone Stairs Dispensers will eject water and lava source blocks (from buckets) Will also take water and lava source blocks if there is an empty bucket inside Boats will now pass through lilypads without breaking the boat; the lilypad drops as an item instead. New command; /seed displays current world seed Passive mobs can be easily pushed around by simply walking, most likely intended to help the player navigate through animal farms more easily. Removed Server Jar dependency in Single Player. Removed old chest texture, causing locked chests to appear as the purple default block. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Emerald Ore has the wrong texture. A ruby like item can be found in the items.png but does not appear in game. Loading a world from a previous version corrupts it. Generated structures are very buggy. New Golden Apple does not appear in the creative mode inventory screen. Villager trading for items worth more than one emerald doesn't work if you place the emeralds one by one. Single player still thinks it requires server/minecraft_server.jar. A blank file with the same name can be used. When generating a Superflat world, you will get chunk errors – there will be some chunks generated in default, and the other are generated in superflat. Pressing F2 to take a screenshot may crash your game and render your world unplayable. There are currently quite common lighting bugs. (Server Issue) Sometimes when Saving and Quitting to Title, the World Save may corrupt. and you may spawn in an empty area.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w19a	May 10, 2012	Added Cocoa Plants to jungles. Added a Large Biomes World Type. Added specific names for the different sandstone and stone bricks. Changed Cocoa Beans textures. Torches now spawn around bonus chests if each side has a block at the same height around it. Cookies now recover 2 points of hunger rather than 1. Bug fixes: Enchanting bows and swords works again. (Other tools now have tooltips, etc. once more.) The End and the Nether generate again normally. Item repair works again. Starting a game in Creative no longer starts in Survival. Bonus chests work correctly again. Particles no longer activate wooden pressure plate with an arrow on it. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Blocks placed in an empty chunk in the end are invisible until reconnecting. Sounds do not play if they originated more than 16 blocks away. Examples: TNT, Ghasts, Noteblocks. Due to Singleplayer acting as a server, the debug information provided F3 does not correctly display the World Seed. This prevents the player from obtaining his/her seed without using a mod or third-party tool. No matter what your world option on cheats, they're always on. Mobs spin in circles while on cocoa plants.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w18a	May 3, 2012	New addition and changes in debug screen: Coordinates are now rounded to 5 digits. "ws", "fs" and "g" (Walking speed, flying speed and ground. "g" is true if player is touching the ground.) Separated server logic and client. Singleplayer is now a local server. Game no longer pauses when entering a command, writing on a sign/book or pausing the game. More fixes to silk touch and block picking. Fixed picking a block in Creative with a tool in your hand causing you to lose it. Fixed Silk Touch giving you only one slab from double slabs. Support and auto-download for server texturepacks. Wooden tools work in furnaces as one full furnace use. Cocoa Beans are now obtainable in jungle tree leaves. Villagers spawned from spawning eggs will get a random profession. Hardcore Mode is now available in multiplayer. Updated language files. Splash "Mojang" screen now appears for a shorter time (1 second instead of 3 seconds). Added names for wooden planks and logs (e.g., Oak Wood or Spruce Wood Planks). Fixed being unable to switch tools of the same kind in your inventory. Fixed water destroying non-solid blocks when breaking them from above. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Enchanted tools don't have a glow or description, but the enchantments still work. Swords and bows could no longer receive enchantments as the table would not show the enchantment items on the right side when one or the other were placed within the table. Sounds occasionally do not play, or have a long delay when playing. Minecraft doesn't shut down local servers if the server or client encounter a bug. The End and the Nether are empty when entering. When creating a new creative world, the player is spawned in survival mode (and has to type /gamemode 1 to be in creative). Bonus chests do not work. Weather fade transition do not work.	Client Server (or .exe)
12w17a	April 26, 2012	Editable Books – Book and Quill, crafted using a Book, Feather, and Ink Sac. When a Book and Quill is made, it can be right-clicked to open a screen that allows you to type the book. Pressing "Done" will save whatever was typed and allow you to edit the book again later, yet will not "sign" it. When "signing" a book, it will allow you to choose a title up to 16 characters long and disable editing of the book. The Book and Quill then becomes a Written Book, with the icon changing along with the label.

12w16a	April 19, 2012	Added a demo mode for non-premium users (won’t be available until the full update). In the language files, new text was added for the demo mode. The demo mode will last for 6 in-game days (about 1 hour and 40 minutes) according to the language files. It also teaches the player how to use the controls and how to begin playing. Added bonus chest option to create world screen. When enabled, starts the user off with a chest nearby containing tools, items, and blocks helpful to starting a survival game. Bonus chests may contain: Wood Wood Planks Sticks Stone and/or Wooden Pickaxe Stone and/or Wooden Axe Bread Apples Added option to enable single-player commands to create world screen. Added several cheats: /gamemode, /toggledownfall, /time, /give, /xp, /kill. Typing / then pressing Tab ↹ will show a list of available commands. These commands are enabled in previously generated creative mode-worlds. While using commands, the world around the player is frozen, unlike in multiplayer. Updated language files. Items can now be deleted from the hotbar by shift-clicking while on the Creative mode item selection screen. Bug fixing and tweaks. Notable bugs (Complete bug list): Even with "Allow Cheats" turned off in Single Player, you can still use the commands. Bonus chests have a chance of spawning inside nearby tree leaves at world creation. The chest is destroyed but the items remain inside the leaves. Bonus chests may fail to spawn, even though the option was enabled. (e.g. in the seed "walruswalruswalrus") If you ban yourself in Singleplayer using cheats it will ban you from your other worlds.

12w15a	April 12, 2012	Stackable items now stack outside inventory when thrown to the ground individually. "Pick Block" button now gives the correct block when used; when clicking on a mob, it gives the appropriate spawn egg. ⇧ Shift+clicking can now be used to wear armor. Brewing Stands and Enchantment Tables allow use of shift clicking to put items in it. Dispensers will deploy boats on water, and minecarts on rails. Powered minecarts and storage minecarts are also deployed similar to minecarts. Right clicking a powered minecart in Creative Mode will act as if you would give it coal. Decreased slime spawning rate in superflat worlds Notable bugs: (Complete bug list) Pick Block: Several entities and blocks are currently unsupported by Pick Block and cause the player to crash if they attempt to Pick Block them. These includes piston heads, Ender Dragons, and other players. Pressing the Pick Block button on Redstone gives you a Redstone Wire block. Pressing the Pick Block button on long grass gives you a Dead Bush placeable on dirt. Pressing the Pick Block button on a sign gives you the sign block and will not have the stand part and will be placed instantaneously, without the sign GUI showing up. Spawn eggs now spawn baby mobs. Baby mobs spawned in the above way will follow any adult of their mob type. Destroying floating sand may crash Minecraft. Changing the GUI scale will cause the game to crash. If item or block with the same ID but with different meta data are stacked on the floor, they will take the meta data of the first item/block you drop. This applies but is not limited to spawn eggs, wools, dyes, woods, planks, half-slabs, stairs, leaves, stone bricks, tall grass and sandstone. For example, if you drop a spruce plank, followed by 20 jungle planks, 20 birch planks and 23 pine planks, they can stack together into 64 spruce planks. Bows do not shoot at correct charges.
