Snapshot 13w09a Ready for Testing!

Today's not Thursday, but there is a Snapshot out anyway - surprise! Mostly owing to the totally awesome Mojam fundraising game-making maraton, the fine folks at Mojang were quite busy last week, and didn't release a Snapshot. This is that Snapshot, all polished up and ready for you! What lies inside?

[snapshot]13w09a[/snapshot]

Features:

Mobs can now ride stuff that rides other stuff
Players riding stuff will keep it when logging off (ie, if you’re on a minecart and log off, you will take that minecart with you)
Animated blocks and items in texture packs now requires the animation definition (previously it was optional)

Fixes:

Language files have been updated
Cannot Connect To Own Server While Not Online (LAN) / Playername being E-Mail address when offline
Comparators causes block updates while idle
Hopper's name doesn't change in its GUI after renamed in anvil
Command Block Arguments Length
Unnecessary delay of "Done" button in the texturepacks menu
Hopper don't update comparator when receiving item stack
Mob Spawners failing to "Saving entity NBT"
EntityAIAvoidEntity Interference
Scoreboard accepts arguments for @p but if not found it will use a wrong name

lotta bug fixes!! By the way, it was tweeted that 1.5 will be most likely released in early march, however, for those of you who play craftbukkit servers, it will take 1-2 weeks before the server updates. So either do not update. Another thing you could do better yet, just use the curse client, which supports downgrading, upgrading, and snapshots!

Too late, the 13w08a was skipped to 13w09a. Actually, this is really freaking awesome about animated blocks and even smooth lighting and I'm going to wait in pre-release soon!

Thinking the same thing.

So if a pig rides a spider can you ride the pig/spider?

When I click to download the snapshot using the curse client, the curse client opens up, but nothing happens. There is nothing about 13w09a, only 13w07a and below. Is this happening for anyone else?

Actually, the animated blocks are not working for me, it was currently missing texture.

So anything can ride anything now? Like SethBling's Bubble Sort in MC made easier?

My texture pack has this problem neither (except lava/water blocks), and still finding way to fix it. Hope this isn't a bug.

We went into the void and fought the Nether Dragon.
We created a beast called the Wither to challenge us, and brought it down.
In our hubris, we ignored the true threat. We did not expect...
..The Skelspig Invasion.

Just release soon in 13w09b or not.

09? What happened to 13w08a? Or did I somehow miss that, when I've been watching every minecraft forum post and Dinnerbone/Jeb tweet...
