Changes[edit | edit source]
Mobs[edit | edit source]
- General
- Changed the idea of mob difficulty.[2]
- Regional difficulty: The longer the player stays in one area, the harder it gets.
- Scales with difficulty – Items, enchants or AI improve with difficulty.
Gameplay[edit | edit source]
- Improved Respiration.
- Now also helps seeing underwater (depends on the enchantment level).
- Riding
- Add mob's health bar to the heads-up display when riding on it (both pigs and horses).
- When riding something, like a mob or a boat, dismounting is only possible using the sneak key.
General[edit | edit source]
- Credits
- Added Mo' Creatures developers to
credits.txt.
- Game window
- Now displays the client's version in the window title (for example: "Minecraft 13w16a").
- Directory structure
.minecraftdirectory structure is changed:assetsfolder; stores resources such as language packs and sounds.- All music discs now use
.oggformat instead of.musformat.
- All music discs now use
libraryfolder; stores Java libraries such as LWJGL andjinput.jar.versionsfolder; there are filesversion.json(meta data) and folders that storesminecraft.jarfor each versions (but its name is the same as its version; the jar for 13w16a isversions/13w16a/13w16a.jar).
Trivia[edit | edit source]
