1.8 Bugs
- Shift clicking into a full inventory crashes game with "saving chunks" screen. Anyone else get that?
-Confirmed, it happened to me when I tried to drop an ender pearl into a full chest by shift clicking. -Gordo89
- Glass doesn't push away this little blocks. (At least in Creative Mode) http:// c.j4k.be/A8Bl
- I've never remember glass pushing the pickups. Not even 1.5 and before. Not a new bug.

- Can't click and drag anything in the inventory, just goes to hotbar and back.
- When swimming, or on a boat ride, a blue line appears at the horizon. Seems to be some sort of positioning problem, as it is also visible, when underwater. (only tested in SMP so far) --94.220.74.68 21:27, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
This was already a bug in Prerelease 1 and 2, but we should still add it to New Bugs as it is major. UGoBoom 22:12, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
- Random cubes of air are generated in deep water. not particularly rare.
Block cloning glich
The block cloning glich still works in 1.7.2
Herobrine debate
There's a bit of an edit war going on with adding and removing the reference to Herobrine, as made in the patch notes. I don't care either way, but it seems a consensus decision would be better than this edit warring over what should be a simple page. CMaster 00:54, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
- If a change has actually been made to the game or its services, it belongs here. Anything else is simply spam. It's not that hard to understand, and it's been decided long ago, multiple times, as the Herobrine articles were deleted. Kizzycocoa's user subpage isn't any better, and posting jokes in a version history page (or the entire wiki, for that matter) is, again, only spamming.--OhiraKyou 01:18, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
- I'd like if we copied the patch notes verbatim, and then added in clarifications and notes in some way that clearly marked them as the wiki's words. Unfortunately, since we instead have an odd mix of our own notes, rewrites of Notch's words, and straight pasting of Notch's notes, with no way to tell which is which, the Herobrine note can't be included without an awkward disclaimer or confusing people. Manifold 02:36, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
- It's just easier to paste Notch's patch notes and then add in stuff he wasn't aware of instead of typing everything from scratch. However, useless information shouldn't be included, regardless of what notes my accompany them.--OhiraKyou 02:45, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
- Agree, this is a "Version history" page, not a patch note page. There are several places to go if you want Notch's version of his notes, namely his page. That said, it should be included with its disclaimer so that people who see the "patch notes" can come here to see what it really means. Dctrjons 11:51, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

New bug(fix)s (Noticed in 1.7_01, could have been earlier?)
Kinda late, but I haven't bothered to post this to here till now. Sorry.
- Grass sides will now always be biome coloured. It's no longer dependent on the fancy/fast graphics setting.
- You can no longer hit or place blocks through doors when standing on the inside of it. This also applies to skeletons, which means it is now safe to place doors from the inside of your house.

1.7.3 Bugs
-Doors will now break if a piston pushes them.
-Sticky Pistons may get the normal piston texture or the moving part of the piston gets invisible under certain circumstances
-Pistons can let Blocks dissappear if the block gets pushed by a second Piston shortly after it got pushed by the first
It mainly broke some of my Piston creations... :(
- Suffocation now deals enormous damage, up to 8 hearts a second. It is literally impossible to save yourself.
- Sign your post. And yesterday I was on, and was trying to see how much damage suffocation does, I forget, but it was DEFINITELY not 8 hearts. Do you have any mods? Ajc 1254 12:55, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
Bed/Inventory glitch
The orientation of the player when this glitch is used is dependent of THE ORIENTATION OF THE BED THE PLAYER IS USING. It does NOT change from version to version. I have tested it many times over so please, STOP putting it down as a glitch after EACH update.
1.7.3 Disappearing Chests
http://twitter.com/#!/jeb_/status/89426783866339328
"No 1.7.3 is still better than 1.7.2, the bug is that when a chunk is unloaded, it will remove some entities (furnaces and chests)"
Minecart
If you're riding on a minecraft and look back, at a certain angle, the cart starts to flicker. This also causes some FPS drops.
Torches on Fences in 1.7
It seems that the change to allow fences to be stacked also allows you to place torches on top of fences. Someone want to add that to the 1.7 changes? Tony311 15:45, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Pick glitch 1.7.3 (and prior)
When your pick is worn out and on its last use before it breaks, the final block that you mine does not drop but disappears along with the pick! This happens with any type of pick.
Highly infuriating if you are mining diamond (for example) when it's on its last use as you lose the diamond.
This has been happening for a lot of versions now but I can't figure out how to add it to the bugs pages for Notch to fix ? ? ? Can someone add it please?

Sand Duping Glitch
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMEdctqH6V0
Basically, it tosses broken sand blocks all over the place ad-infinitum. Also works for Gravel. Was about to delete the entry off the page until I verified it with a simple google search and testing for myself.

Redstone was named on July 7, not July 9.
The minor details! On Notch's thumblr blog, he named this "red stuff" redstone on July 7. Is it a mistake that it says July 9 on the articles (well, I've only checked Redstone (Ore)), or purposeful? --Kris159 06:18, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
- You have the reference, and you know how to edit, so update the articles yourself. ;) 「ダイノガイ千?!」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 05:59, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
- Also, to be fair, Notch makes it clear that he came up with the name "Redstone Dust" the night before that blog post (on July 6). So, text on the matter could read something like "Notch came up with the name "Redstone Dust" on July 6, 2010, and announced it the next day.[ref]", or something to that effect. =) 「ダイノガイ千?!」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 06:01, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
Sapling
The Sapling was added in 0.0.11. Here's a proof: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgxTqbiZE88 at 0:17
DeathStar99 14:25, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
- That's proof of its presence, not its addition (but absent proof of saplings being in earlier versions, that's about as good as we'll get). 「ダイノガイ千?!」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 19:19, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
Pressure plates and the Nether
Not sure if this is a new bug or not, but (in 1.7.3) when I go into the Nether, pressure plates stop working. This applies both for pressure plates in the Nether after entering, and upon returning to the normal world pressure plates there aren't working either. Quitting the game to the main menu screen then reentering the map makes the plates work again both in the Nether and the normal world, but portal travel either direction makes them stop working again until quit-and-reopen is used. - TheBushranger 08:33, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
Better Version History
It's one line of text, adding a link to the Pocket Edition Version History. Some people (Like my brother, Cman), will put in 'Version History', look for the Pocket Edition's Version History.So here's the link to that page:User:Ajc_1254/BetterVersionHistory.--Yours truly, Ajc_1254 12:09, 21 August 2011 (UTC) P.S. How do I get the time, date and(at least)the UTC of?
allow-fly
I remember seeing this somewhere, but when I searched (Ctrl + F) on this page for "fly", the only results are a bug and something else. Where is it? Cool12309(T|C) 02:58, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

1.8 Leak
Should the 1.8 leak information be added to the page as a new version, or should we just compile a list here in the discussion page to be ready for 1.8 release? Levy 22:22, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
- I wouldn't touch the 'page' until it is actually released. Changes should probably left here. Then it can be a reference for bug hunters and a reference for things that are 'known' changes so they aren't finding a bunch of changes that are widely known.Dctrjons 22:55, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
- Agree/Disagree to: 1.8 pre should be added to the version history page.
- I agree This is an official version, and it's worthy to have it's own section. a note on it being a leaked version is necessary thou.--Yurisho 03:50, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
- Agree Jeb is going to release an update for the pre-release, so it may as well be an official version. It's mentioned all over the wiki already, so why not here as well? We'd also want to show the differences between the two (or more) pre-release versions. –ultradude25 (T|C) at 22:47, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
- Agree Both releases pre1 and pre2 should definitely be added to the wiki. Having them tweeted by Jeb is official enough, imo. - Tyron
- DisagreeThe 1.8 pre 1&2 are both testing versions. They aren't official versions so they should not be treated as such. Official versions are versions that are updated via the client update, not manually replacing the jar file.
- I Agree It's part of the development history. Mojang itself let it out. It's an official version. Also, I actually stated something to agree/disagree with and tried to fix the icons by the individual posts. Sorry if I said you agreed when you didn't. Travürsa 17:38, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
So far there seems to be more agrees than disagrees, so I've set up the skeleton for the 1.8 version histories, but kept them commented. Add to them while leaving them commented and once this is agreed upon we can uncomment them. –ultradude25 (T|C) at 14:28, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
- I disagree with putting the changes here. The standard for version history has gone to hell already, we don't need it to go further into it's pit. These pre-releases are not updated through the client, so they are NOT an official update. Just because Mojang distributed it doesn't mean it is meant to be the official update. Another thing to note is that through the beta mostly, readability of the version history page has really made worse. When people in the future read about the past's history and how the game was changed, they do not care about every little damn detail about the smallest things; it just gets in the way of the readers getting the GIST of an update. Same thing here: since these prereleases are development versions that were not forced into a client update for everyone, it will only add confusion to others in the future reading this. Remember, this page is way too long as it is, and we really need to start to find a way to split up. Creating a new page with info of changes in publicly released development versions is a great idea, especially most of the "Agrees" are because they want this info on the wiki; not because they necessarily want it on this page. As well as the last reasons, by putting a development version page, it will be a step in the right direction about the readibility and most importantly, how well readers in the future will understand what they were reading and how it exactly happened back then. --UGoBoom 23:02, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
- Disagree I agree with UGoBoom 100%. We could make a page with what is already listed here in the prerelease, then just put a link in place of the information saying "for information regarding the 1.8 prereleases, click here." I've been against putting the notes here from the beginning and I knew there would be too much arguing over the matter. Does the new page solution seem like a reasonable compromise to everyone else? Perhaps 1.8 Prerelease? Levy 01:08, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
- More like Version_History/development_versions or Development_version_history so that we can include non-1.8 specific development logs, because I can almost guarantee that these public released dev versions are going to be a trend in future updates, so helpful minecrafters can help betatest the update before everyone who doesn't know what they are doing and just want to play a stable game version can keep doing that. I also recommend that if such a page were to be introduced, in the summary plot at the top of the page, another line should say something like "Public-Released development version change logs can be found [[directory|here]]" UGoBoom 02:45, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

1.8 Pre-release "notes"
Have at it. Dctrjons 22:57, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
- Pretty much everything from the Upcoming Features list. Levy 23:07, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
- Yes and no, there are quite a few differences between what 'pre 1.8-is' and what 'may be'. And on that note would suggest this is kept to only differences or clarifications to the upcoming features page. I.O.W. Read that first. Dctrjons 16:22, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
New Features:
- XP orbs that do nothing (yet)
- Hitbox on the Chicken mob is fixed, no longer only hittable on their feet.
- Seed number can be found in the debug mode. (F3)
- Torch lighting flickers.
- Punching strength has returned to being 1/2 heart.
- Holding the right mouse button with a sword in hand turns the sword into a blocking position.
- Sugar cane now spawns and can be planted on sand adjacent to water, in addition to dirt.
- Cooked chicken heals 3 food icons.
- Ender Pearl dropped by Endermen. (Use Unknown.)
- Lakes large enough to not be the little ponds, yet too small to be ocean spawn inland.
- Some spots of the ocean are incredibly deep, so deep a player could start drowning before hitting the bottom.
- Ability to run and heal tied to food bar state (guesses - above 3 to run, above 7 to heal)
- ?? Effects of disease
- ?? Blue spider poison does ~5 hearts damage but will not take last 1/2 heart (seemed to stay at 1/2 heart before bitten again)
- Eating too much raw food and rotten flesh can give the player a food poisoning state, where the food bar turns green. It will stay green until one full icon is quickly depleted. Food poisoning causes you to get hungry faster, but will still heal you.
Bugs
- Item duplication - one way seems to be leaving the crafting screen with things still on the 'table'
- Furnace crash - lighting error fixes available (change zz.class)
- Ghasts don't glow like they are supposed to, possibly due to new lighting engine.
- Torches placed underwater are immediately removed, but the light remains
Prerelase Info
• Added Melon and Melon seeds
• Added Pumpkin seeds
• Added wine and iron bars
• Added large and more interesting mountains
• New types of food - Raw beef, Steak (i do not remember every types) and new texture for Porkchop
• Experience orbs and of course experience
• Ender pearls
Descructable bedrock
You can break the bottommost bedrock layer in Creative mode - and die when falling into the void below.
I think it is NOT a bug. In creative mode user is able to place bedrock so it have to be desctructable. --83.22.166.223 13:32, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
Update 1.8 MP mapbug
On my minecraft mp server the old chunks dont match with the new chunks and the new ocean is one block down than the old one. Anyone got the same problems?!
- It is known, that with this update the chunck generation changed, and so the chunks won't match with old ones. Sorry. For the ocean level: I don't know if it changed, but it looks like... --freaktechnik (w|t) 17:39, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
Sunrise/Sunset
Was the sky color during sunrise and sunset updated in 1.8?
Some bugs
I just updated to 1.8 and several of my chests are dark, as if in a smoky black box. This can be fixed by placing a torch nearby, and it stays fixed so you can take the torch back down immediately. Also, my game crashed while riding a minecart and my train of two furnace carts and a regular turned into five furnace carts.
1.8 bug fix
Placing a painting on the same block as a stone button or a sign no longer removes collisions, as seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sY6UjmuYKo
