Ready for this week's Snapshot? We certainly are - check out the change log below:
Added a demo mode for non-premium users (won’t be available until Mojang does a full update)
Added bonus chest option to create world screen
Added option to enable single-player commands to create world screen
Updated language files
Bug fixing and tweaks
Paying attention? If so, you definitely saw the option to add single-player commands! Curious how it works? Wondering exactly what the "bonus chest" option does? Be sure to grab the client and server files below!
Client: Link Removed
Server: Link Removed
The "demo" game is designed to last for 5 in-game days, at which point the world will self-delete and prompt the player to purchase the full version of the game. While a demo of Minecraft has existed for some time, is has not, to date, been incorporated into the main game.
Dinnerbone has also stated that they will be changing the format of ops.txt, white-list.txt, banned-*.txt for 1.3, letting the community know well in advance so mod/plugin makers and anyone else who may tinker with the game can prepare for the changes. As mentioned some time ago in an interview with Jeb, SMP and SSP will likely be merged in the future, making it easier to run small, informal SMP games for friends without the hassle of server and community management. Large servers will likely still persist, only changing somewhat in how they are maintained.
Keep an eye out as we cover more exciting changes in the coming days!

That is iron.That means you can do whatever you want with my pack as long as you say it was by me
I'm curious how long the demo mode lasts (if there is a time limit)? Smart move on their part. Also, the single player commands are an awesome addition. I've been waiting for something like this.
Oh my gosh THANK YOU!!! I'm sick of having to waste wood on a pickaxe just to get enough stone for all my other tools and then having a wooden pickaxe floating around my chests, taking up space. The bonus chest is a useful addition for me..

There's been a demo for over a year, although it seems they stopped publicising it.
Have we still not figured out what was in the last update that was so "special"? Did I miss something?

This space for rent! if you wish to rent this space, please jump up and down, and then put a sticky-note on your screen. The sticky-note gremlin will then notify me of your request.

1.2.5? There wasn't meant to be anything special about it. It was a bug fix update. Lots of things needed to be fixed before they could start on 1.3 like ghost TNT in multiplayer still. It was more for their security on the matter than us.

Check out the list of SMP commands at this link; they should be working just fine.
