Woooo a snapshot to replace yesterday's disaster!!!

[Mywenn]

Thanks for this snapshot.
But I notice a little -huge- problem: we are unable to craft a chest with other wood than oak wood planks. Same for craft sticks with planks that are not from oak. Probably other problems but I had not yet test.

Yesterday's update was a bit of a mess. This seems to have fixed it.
A lot of fixes since yesterday!

Lol, glad THAT got fixed. That's actually pretty convenient, because now we can get more Golden Apples easily.

[quote]•Added an /effect command[/quote]
Guys. GUESS WHAT. Potion effects on command!!!!!!! I'm serious, I just tested it. You have to know the status effect's ID though. Also you can't raise the potency above 4, unfortunately.

It also seems that they added a medium Smooth Lighting option, so that's pretty cool for users with subpar computers.

[forged_in_flames]

Haters, what is this? Mojang being lazy? Not enough bug fixes in minecraft? Late snapshots? Well here you go! A snapshot after the snapshot that fixes more things that the old one! This is a total of 19 bug fixes! But unfortunately you haters will still think its not enough   yay redstone update is VERY soon!!!

that answers my question of what the new command does. could be nice for healing everyone or giving certain buffs at random times. could even have a use in Sethbling's Super Smash Bros map

Confirmed as well. I went back to the previous snapshot. Fix 10 things, break something major taking the word "Craft" right out of the game

[KooalaBear123]

Can't wait for 1.5

[Vagossssssssss]

Try to use the instal health effect on that XD

[ilwis]

what is the command for the effects? (example?) and does it work in command blocks?

[ilwis]

OMG never mind just found it under help freeking cool and works with comand blocks /effect @p <type of enchantment> [duration in sec] [strength of effect]

try this... /effect @p 1 60 4
so cool been waiting for this options

[kanokarob]

effect?!

[quote][*]Crash with 512x texture pack
[/quote]I didn't even know people made 512x textures.  Do they take a freakin Cray to run them?


[quote][*]Mining Fatigue broken
[/quote]Am I stupid?  What exactly is mining fatigue?

[Kodehawa]

The FPS up in 13w06a - 13w09b are very unestable. (40fps - 2fps)

Other things are very good!
I'm very excited with the new command

[Pokechu22]

I hope their fix with ghost items is not to remove stacks of 0 and -1, because those were really cool for custom maps.  They behaved as infinite/none items.

Mining fatigue is an unused effect that is the opposite of haste.
