Sky

  • Faster brightness re-calculation.

General

  • The game now keeps a cyclic buffer of near chunks in memory, so it no longer runs out of memory when players walk for a long distance.
    • However, the game does not yet save anything to the disk, so players lose data from chunks they unload.[1]

Removals

Structures

Obsidian wall

General

  • The test skybox has been removed; the sky now more closely resembles what it is in modern versions.

Fixes

8 bugs fixed

  • Fire, gears, torches, and crops have a texture when placed.
  • Torches can be placed on the sides of blocks again.
  • Furnaces have a face.
  • Block breaking cracks now show up consistently.
  • Fixed a significant bug at high distances that causes chunks to detach and intensely jitter with camera movement.
  • The wireframe hitbox for blocks no longer jitters at high distances, and no longer distorts at high distances for certain GPUs.
  • Blocks no longer stop being solid after X/Z: 16,777,216.
  • Particles are no longer distorted at high distances.

Bugs

4 bugs reported

  • Opening the inventory crashes the game.
    • However, the player can still access their inventory through a workbench.
  • Slabs have lighting bugs.
  • Sometimes, the game crashes while generating a world, with a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException error being thrown.
  • Torches, flowers, saplings, and seeds lose precision and appear 2D at large distances.
