New page for the Pre-Releases

Following some talk on the talk:version_history page, I took it upon myself to make a new page to house the info for the pre-releases. If you see any wikisyntax errors, please do fix them, and discuss any opinions on if this was a great or a bad idea. UGoBoom 18:49, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

So happy to see that PR's have their own page now. Makes more sense considering they are not final versions and can not be the "version history" at that time. --Throex 21:02, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

Design

Whats with the design of this page? Looks like crap..

Someone removed most of the 1.9 table; I just reverted their edit. ディノ千?!? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 20:52, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Hardcore Bug

Difficulty of hardcore is determined by previous game setting. If you set the game to peaceful in a creative mode game, exit, and enter an hardcore world, no monsters will spawn. This can be corrected by quitting the hardcore game and entering creative and setting the game to either easy, normal or hard. With those 3 settings monster spawn in hardcore, but they never spawn if the previous game were on peaceful.

Removed "access to Ender"

Since the portals don't actually have an active use yet, I feel its inappropriate to list access to new realms on the version history, and near as I can tell the "skylands" area is a bug and shouldn't be considered a new realm or biome. And its certainly not the Ender. Schizmo 04:16, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Purple border correction

In the 1.9pre3 page it says that purple borders have been added to item labels. This was added in 1.9pre2 not 1.9pre3. Please correct me if I am wrong. EnderCreeper 13:35, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

You were right. Nice catch; some people here just do not know what they are talking about... UGoBoom 02:43, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Ok I made the change I was talking about it should be fixed now. EnderCreeper 03:51, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Baby Animals

Should they be considered a new mob (they are listed as that now)? I don't consider them a new mob, but a new feature. Just because they are a baby cow, or pig..they are still the pig/cow mobs we have now just babies. --Throex 18:29, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

UI

UI disappears after F5

In 1.9pre4, the block palette UI is missing from the regular game screen after pressing F5 to cycle the third person views. The UI is missing but dimmed as usual when the inventory is visible. Was this in creative? In survival if this means the scrolling item selection ui this does not happen for me. -java 1.7 x64

I don't understand the "-java 1.7 x64" part and it seems your grammar is troubled. And why did you ask a question?. Also, did you accidentally hit F1? Do you have mods on? Head over to the forums if you still have trouble. Also, please sign your comments. DantonDamnark 22:42, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

Enchantments

Fortune enchantment only affects some block types

In 1.9pre4, according to Enchantments, Fortune seems to work only if the block would drop a different item type upon being mined. eg coal, diamonds work, ore blocks do not.

Items

Arrows shot with a fully charged bow into Enderman in The End will cause the game to crash. This breaks the world How does this happen? endermen now dodge any arrow shot at them!

Request for lock

We need a page protection on this page due to vandalism and lower-quality content additions that I've seen by IPs, not accounts. The same protection as Version History will be fine. UGoBoom 00:25, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

I agree and support this notion. More so after seeing the previous 3 topics (above this one) are unsigned and not very well written. DantonDamnark 22:23, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

Ghast buff

Were ghasts made stronger during one of the 1.9 prereleases? --Flajuram 23:11, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Not likely, I think weapon damage was reduced instead.LTK 70 17:22, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
Did Ghasts become rarer at some point in 1.8 or 1.9? --Flajuram 08:50, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

Pre-release links

Is it possible to make pre-release labels in the left column of the table be links to download that pre-release (or to the site where this can be done?). Would allow for more people to easily use them and help test them for Mojang.

New Prelease coming?

http://twitter.com/#!/jeb_/status/128464871271575553 Jeb talks in a reply on twitter that there will be a new pre release before minecon. "most likely.." --Throex TALK|CONT 03:33, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

More proof of a PR5 or Release Candidate 1..

New Camera Angles

This new feature in pre release 5 with "Y", "H", "N" and "M" (I know there are others) seem to be confusing? I know jeb has stated that they were not meant to be there and is probably for bug testing on his part. But why would he need that feature to bug test? I think it was a test of his for upcoming features.. I see no other reason why he would need it. Any one else got ideas? --Throex TALK|CONT 19:58, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Slimes in pre5

I went from meeting exactly one slime in prereleases 2 through 4 to killing them by the dozen in pre5, all in the same (hardcore) world. I don't know if they were made more common, or if it was a bug that got fixed. Can someone confirm? LTK 70 17:23, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
