14w26a is the twenty-ninth snapshot released for 1.8. This snapshot is the first after a decision to release snapshots on Wednesdays rather than on Thursdays.

It is strongly advised to make a backup of a world before using this snapshot, because of block-corrupting problems that were not corrected until 14w26c.

A potential means of recovering corrupted worlds using MCEdit was made available by a Reddit user, on this thread.

Additions

• Commands
  • /replaceitem <entity|block> ...
    • Can replace items in any inventory, including the inventories of mobs such as zombies
    • Full syntax:
      • /replaceitem entity <entity> <slot> <item> [amount] [data value]
      • /replaceitem block <x> <y> <z> <slot> <item> [amount] [data value]
    • Example: /replaceitem entity @e[type=Zombie] slot.weapon minecraft:iron_sword 1 0 will give all the zombies iron swords
    • Example: /replaceitem entity @p slot.hotbar.0 minecraft:fish 4 2 will put 4 clownfish in the players first hotbar slot
    • Example: /replaceitem block ~ ~-1 ~ slot.container.5 minecraft:redstone_block 1 0 will put a redstone block in the 6th slot of a container 1 block beneath the player
• Debug Mode world type
  • Useful for resource pack makers
  • Hold ⇧ Shift and cycle through "World Type" to select it
  • Spectator mode recommended to avoid crashes (you can use creative mode too without any effect on some machines)
  • All possible blocks with all possible data values are generated
    • They are arranged in a grid across height y=70, with a barrier floor at y=60
  • Blocks placed are deleted, and blocks destroyed are restored
    • There is a special generator option preventing this. It is called "debug_all_block_states". If you change this to "flat" or "default" in NBTexplorer, you will be able to interact with the world. Only for a short period though, on most machines there will be lots of lag or the game might crash. (Not recommended to play survival on)
• Gamerules
  • sendCommandFeedback
    • If set to false, player-run commands will not show a success message

Changes

• Commands
  • /execute
    • Now has a detect argument (sub-command, only works when used with execute)
      • Allows the execute command to run only if a block is detected at a specific location relative to the target
      • Example: /execute @a ~ ~ ~ detect ~ ~-1 ~ minecraft:grass 0 say You are standing on grass.
  • /worldborder
    • Now has an add argument
      • Similar to the set argument, but can be used to add (or remove) a certain number of blocks to the world border distance
      • Negative numbers can be used to remove blocks
      • Example: /worldborder add -75 will shrink the world border width by 75 blocks
  • /fill
    • Block limit changed from 4096 to 32768 blocks
• Command Blocks
  • X/O button next to "Last output" in commandblock to turn off the last output string
• Customized world type
  • Has an ocean monument toggle
• Resources
  • Reworked 3D resources, adding the possibility of new blocks with multiple textures
• Swampland
  • Changed generation of the marsh-like areas
• Furnace
  • Empty furnaces will now only accept fuel and empty buckets in the fuel slot
• Item Frames
  • The wood part of the frame now uses the oak texture rather than the birch texture
• BlockStates
  • Switched to only/mostly using BlockStates in the code, though not all block combinations are BlockStates yet
• Block models
  • Instead of specifying uvs, you can now choose textures to be projected onto the model
