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!

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!

What are the commands, the only one I figured out is /give

Dinnerbone tweeted you can type "/" and then use the tab key to cycle through the commands available.

If I see further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.
Hey Jon, what about Giant Mobs, like the old giant, and the spider-for-screenshot Jeb made? They could be rare, like spider jockeys. Let's see the Golems fend off those =]

Can someone list the commands that can be used? I'm just so used to SPC mod, that some commands are unknown.

If you type just a word like: "hello" it will say hello you have to use / what if they are working on server being in a more single player way. Didn't they say there where going to try and make it more like that a month or two ago?

These cheat commands seem like preperation for inviting players onto your world. For example: why would you need /kick on a Singleplayer world?
[/quote]
Because there isn't commands like  /kick, /ban, /whitelist....
But thats true, you should be able to invite friends to your world.
You still reading this signature?

I agree, I'll never touch it.

BUT... thankfully it's optional. I assume these will be turned off by default.  If it shuts up the lazy whiners, I'll happily embrace this update.

This Update is awesome!
Pefect for those, who search biomes to make a survival in that.
But the bonus cheasts don´t spawn, in my version...

This is Minecraft. You don't NEED rules (unless its an adventure or survival map). The game is up to you to decide what you do.

It doesn't work like that. You have to do[b] /give (YOUR MINECRAFT NAME) (ID) (AMOUNT) (ID)[/b]
I don't know why we have to do [b]ID [/b]twice, but that should help.

Its applied to single player not multiplayer so what does it matter? If it was on a multiplayer survival map then yes its a bit dodgy but on single player not everyone wants to spends days digging resourses so it gives people the option to play survival while having the option to save some time. Its been added as an option so you can simply leave it off and nothing changes for you.
