Snapshot 15w46a Ready for (Bug)testing!

Bugs! More specifically, bugfixes! Mostly done with feature creep, Mojang is now highly focused on bugfixing - and there are still many to fix - with every snapshot getting us one step closer to a full 1.9 release. Remember, it is very important to report any bugs you find, especially if they are not on the tracker already! An unreported bug is an unfixed bug, which someone will inevitably find and point out after release otherwise. We can all get rid of release-date bugs together!

To get snapshots, open your launcher and press the “New Profile” button. Call it “snapshots” and check the box saying “Enable experimental development snapshots” and save. To switch to the normal version, you can select it in the dropdown at the bottom left corner of the launcher. Back up your world first or run the game on in a different folder (See the “new profile” dialog).

 

Snapshots can corrupt your world, please backup and/or run them in a different folder from your main worlds. Do not taunt your worlds.
