| Java Edition | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.8 | 14w25a | The block and item texture atlases have been combined into a single texture atlas (likely due to both being changed to use models) with four mipmap variations, as a result removing the blocks-atlas and items-atlas used prior to this version. | |||
