Crashing/system

 * Looks like it is trying to perform a command impossible to perform, is disabled, and/or is unimplemented. I think it is trying to search the files for the new method of lighting.
 * I found out that it is a problem with MCPatcher.

!I keep crashing when I place a minecart or join a snapshot server, I've tried 5 different servers also. undefined -- 21:09, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

! Changing FOV from 75 to Normal in single player stops the local server; the player can not open chests, crafting tables, furnaces, sleep in beds or manipulate blocks until the client is completely closed and reopened; going to the main menu and entering the world again doesn't fix this problem. First bug I've reported and put on the wiki, not sure if I did it right. 11:56PM, 27th September 2012 (UTC+10)
 * Does anyone have any indications on what is happening? as far as i can tell: client has lost connection to server created in game, resulting in everything frozen.

After reentering the map, I was placed a little back, as if the server did a rollback. Again, it keeps disconnecting upon reentering until I restart minecraft, after which it will be a matter of time before it kicks me again or the map won't load any further. 22:06, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Annoyances a! World chunks load extremely slowly - much more slowly than player's running speed, which means it is possible to run to the edge of the loaded world before new chunks load. Also, chunk errors are everywhere. -- 14:52, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Gameplay
Bugs !I noticed that there are A LOT of lag spikes now, probably due to the new lighting system. I hope they fix this soon 14:31, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Also having this problem, I'm getting 50 FPS then Minecraft will freeze for 3 seconds. I also had a jump-back problem which normally only occurs on slow servers. My game also froze and refused to generate any chunks or do anything for 10 seconds before continuing. Upgraded to major annoyance. -- 15:46, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * i am Glad 2 know its not just my computer, cuz i recently upgraded from one thats get 8FPS on average, 2 one that gets about 30. I blame the new lighting system 16:00, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I think that the lighting system may be the cause, but the log (I an it from cmd) says things like

undefined (The log is way longer, over cmd's log length, and I was only playing for about 5 min). The pie char slowly reduced the amount of recourses from root.tick if the game was paused. 19:44, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I changed this from a major annoyance to major bug. The lag I am getting is far more then annoying. The game is almost unplayable due to the inconsistent frame rate. 20:34, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * You can press numbers corresponding to different sections while the pie chart is up to enter different branches and ultimately find the section eating up ticks, and 0 to go back.-- 23:22, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I found the cause of the lag, at least for my computer. It seems that VSync is defaulting to ON in this snapshot, causing excess lag. Disabling it fixed the lag for me. 02:19, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

! When I break a block that's one block above the void, then everything starts lagging up REALLY bad. I would go from about 50-60 FPS to 10 or lower. Then I save and quit and try to get back onto the world. It won't load. Neither will any of the other worlds. So then I have to restart Minecraft for it to work. And then I get back on and everything is fine with no lag. If I do it again, everything starts lagging again. Sometimes covering up the hole to the void will stop the lag.

undefined Boats float in midair above the water and/or sink below the water after placing a boat in the water, saving the map, opening the map, and then touching the boat. To reproduce: 1) Place boat in water; 2) Save the map; 3) Open up the same map; 4) You will see the boat floating in midair just above the water; 5) Nudge the boat slightly by going adjacent to it and it will drop into the water; 6) After dropping into the water, it will actually start to fill with water and sink slowly; 7) Go next to it and the boat will float to the top once again; 8) After that, it may start to sink again; 9) This occurs when placed in water in an enclosed dock, and sometimes in open water. -- 09:53, 01 October 2012 (CEST)

Annoyances


 * aI am not sure whether this is a bug or not, but the whither boss seems to attack all visible mobs hostile and peaceful which can completely decimate a world. Also, when there is nothing visible to attack (everything is invisible, or nothing spawned), it goes to the lowest altitude and just sits there.  It can also fit through a 1x1 opening if it is above, but not to the side.  16:46, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I believe this is intended behaviour... The Wither is hostile to the player and all mobs except undead mobs (skeletons, zombies, Zombie Pigmen, Wither Skeletons and other Withers). Moved to annoyances (as you have used the annoyance tag) Chromer


 * a! This bug is not specific to this snapshot. It's from 1.1 to now. When you spawn/go to the spruce snowy forest many wolves(not tamed) are following and spawning to you. when you hit one of them they will spawn faster (3 wolves a second) and all of them will attack you.you need to fix it.

Mobs/NPCs/animals
Bugs ! Entities are extremely slow for me. If I spawn in a mob, it takes up to a minute for it to update. Then, about 5 minutes later, you can actually interact with it. Though after it updates so you can interact with it, there is an IMMENSE lag spike. Orome12

! It seems that you can no longer herd animals with wheat. They snap their heads to you like they are going to follow you but then just stand there as you move away. A couple seconds later they unsnap their heads. MFINN23

undefined Villager Trading seems buggy. For example you have a villager who trades 10 cookies per emerald. Give him a stack of emerald and he will give you 10 stacks of cookies if you shift-click them. But if you exit the trading screen you will drop around 50 emeralds in front of you and most of the cookies in your inventory will turn out to be phantom ones and vanish on trying to select or eat them. -- 19:05, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * This is because you can now only have a few trades. before it stops the trade. because you are shift clicking he trys to make all the items which result in the client thinking he has done it but server saying from not (this is the explanation its still a bug) killje

! Cave spiders can move through solid blocks. I have a cave spider water elevator that I sealed off completely and left one airspace at the top. When I am standing on top of it and facing it, the spiders all pile up in the airspace, and all is ok. The moment I turn around, all the spiders are outside and attacking me. In previous versions this was just a visual glitch, but the spiders were still in the airspace, now they have moved through solid blocks. -- 20:15, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Graphical/lighting
Bugs

! Ever since the 1.8 lighting update, my lighting has been seriously messed up, especially at night. During the day, lighting is normal. However, at night, the lighting changes drastically. To describe it, it seems that the light limits have been reversed. At the surface, it's still tied to a sun light level, that is, the surface is lit up like sunlight, even though the sky is black and starry. And for caves, the lighting is restricted to moonlight, but still has gradation, as in, there are 16 notable values. This seriously breaks gameplay at night, as you can't see anything in caves without a good bit of lighting. It also breaks light beacons on the surface. I have no idea how this got by, as it seems like a glaring mistake, maybe you can use that snooper data of yours to figure it out! -- 23:43, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I have the same problem but from 1.8 my entities are extremly darken, such as no lighting engine on them. If i take a night vision potions I'll se normally, but when the effects finishes bug still become...

undefined Pistons will not let light through while opening or open, but will for the tiny period of time while closing. -- 20:44, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

 * The side facing south always emits the most light. --☺ undefined 14:49, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * After placing the pumpkin, f=0 emits bl=13, while all other faces emit bl=10 (although, if you placed the pumpkin on a flat surface, they will show bl=11 because they're illuminated by the bright side). Placing and removing a block from the bright side will, unless it's the carved side, reset it to bl=11 (now all four sides emit bl=11), whereas placing and removing a block in front of the carved side will set it to bl=13 (as it's supposed to be), so that the pumpkin now has two "bright sides" until it's updated again. The final state after updating all sides like this is the carved side emitting bl=13 and all other sides emitting bl=10. --undefined – Win8βx64, Java7x64, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 21:10, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Please, no. I have lots of places lit by what are supposed to be light level 15 Jack-o-lanterns, and are "safe" (light level 8 or better) based on that. Dropping the light level from 15 down to 13 or 10 (or, as I suspect you mean, 14 or 11) means that my safe rooms will now spawn mobs.
 * Tell you what: If you can teach mobs to spawn on dark half-slabs, I'll be happy. I'll redo my lighting if all those half slab abusers have to redo their lighting.

undefinedA slab floating in the air half a block above the ground, beside a slab on the ground lets through light.

undefinedWith smooth lighting, a slab sitting diagonal (vertically above, and to one side) from another block will bleed a little light onto the vertical face of the block below. But the light doesn't seem to propagate straight through the slab, as seems to happen with the above bug (an enclosed room will remain pitch black), so I am counting this as something different. I can remember this happening also in 1.2.5.

undefinedPlacing two stair blocks on top of each other can cause the bottom stair to flicker dark for a short time or to stay permanently dark until the lighting is updated by plaing another block nearby. -- 19:18, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

undefined Chests frequently have faulty lighting and updating light or even replacing them does not work. They appear about 4 shades darker than their current exposed light level.

undefined Even when I'm in an underground cave looking at the floor, according to the profiler, root.gameRenderer.level.clouds uses between 5 and 16% performance. I smell a major performance leak here. (Similarly, toggling the HUD with F1 does not change the performance of root.gameRenderer.gui.actionBar, but that's not as much performance, and I suppose it's far less common that players play without the HUD than players dwelling in caves.) --undefined – Win8βx64, Java7x64, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 20:40, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Sounds
Bugs

! You seriously mauled my sounds now too, with the new engine. First lighting, now sounds? The sounds are ground out, with 90% loud static, even with clicking on the main menu. And the music sounds like a nightmare when it plays, no missing it with music on there! -- 23:50, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

! EVER SINCE I got this snapshot, along with a few glitches (like stair lighting) that I don't think matter, I IMMEDIATELY found that there was NO SOUND! Although it is technically an add-on and unneccessary, I have not returned to survival at all for fear of dying without warning due to a backstabbing creeper (or worse!  Zombie siege! :) ).  I have done some building in creative, but I am getting bored, and feel like risking it even in HARDCORE if it means excitement.  I hope that this gets fixed soon and I look forward to swamp huts in Week 40. As a note, MUSIC still works, and I love your soundtracks as much as the next guy, but I think I speak for many when I say that the music is the accompaniment to the sounds, not the other way around. Sorry if my rating for this bug is too extreme.  This is the first ever version of MC (developmental OR full!) that I have ever felt was too glitchy to not speak up about. 3:19, 30 September 2012, edited my post at 3:25, 30 September 2012
