Changes[edit | edit source]
Blocks[edit | edit source]
- General
- Rewrote how blocks are rendered.
- Rewrote how block data is handled.
- Removed the previously-accessible item forms of flowing and stationary water and lava blocks (8, 9, 10 & 11), double stone and wooden slabs (43 & 125), fire blocks (51), nether portal and end portal blocks (90 & 119), cocoa pods (127), and potato and carrot crops (141 & 142). They are no longer available as item forms through the
/give
or/summon
commands, but are still placeable through commands such as/setblock
. This removal has made by adding method registerItemBlock(block), which registers an ItemBlock for respective block. The previously-accessible item forms of these blocks is not in the registerItemBlock list, this means they do not have any registered direct item form and therefore, they are unobtainable.

"useAmbientOcclusion"
renamed to"ambientocclusion"
