Java Edition 14w30c

14w30c is the fortieth snapshot for Java Edition 1.8, and was released to fix some of the bugs and crashes in the 14w30a and 14w30b snapshots.

Blocks

 * Banners
 * Now have some new patterns.
 * 'Cross' which puts a cross on the banner (slightly thinner than when using stripes).
 * 'Border' which adds a border to the banner (again thinner than when using stripes).
 * 'Curly border' which adds a more decorative border.
 * 'Mojang logo' which adds the Mojang logo.

Gameplay

 * Lighting
 * Some black spots will now occur.
 * The black spots bug-fix was responsible for, which was causing trees in certain biomes to not generate.

General

 * Distance effects
 * Fixed a very major rendering bug that occurred in 14w30a and 14w30b at high coordinates for many GPUs if VBOs were disabled.

Trivia
