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.

I didn't even know people made 512x textures.  Do they take a freakin Cray to run them?


Am I stupid?  What exactly is mining fatigue?

they make 1024x textures too, mining fatigue is a negitive potion effect

Mining Fatigue broken

Am I stupid?  What exactly is mining fatigue?

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

and now its... broken?

No, now it's fixed. The list is a list of bugs, not a list of fixes

But if it's not used, how did they know it was broken and why did they fix it?

Instead of guessing, I went to the actual bug page and looked. The problem was, if you mine stone with a pick, it takes "pick time" to mine a stone. If you mine it with your hand, you broke it very quickly. So mining with a tool was actually WORSE than mining by hand.

I really wish this forum would post the bugs with their links, and not just grab the text.

EDIT: I didn't understand the problem. Frankly, I still don't, but it's apparently a potion effect that I've never encountered personally. And as it's a fixed bug, I can't be arsed to continue looking into it

There's this thing I wonder about: How can 1.5 not be far off, considering there's still important things missing? Like the BUD block or Hopper filtering (which is kind of possible right now, but only by jumping through hoops. This is far from the simplicity of the Allocator.)

[kyctarniq]

I might have dreamed it, at it would be a dream; the possibility of a texture pack makers summary for 1.5 when it releases.  This could be as simple as a diff, but more would be even more helpful.  Is it true?  Given the number of TPs I need to update I would be over the moon if it really existed.

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!!!

You would have a point, if they hadn't broken WOOD!

...well you still have a point, but they BROKE WOOD!

None of these things were promised, but considered, and the Allocator was a comparison rather than an exact model. (though i do hope they add filter slots in the future) and i don't think the Bud block will be added yet, since it hasn't really been mentioned since. Which sucks, cuz i still have problems with BUDs...

[b3astmak3r]

i remember in 1.5 ahhhhh good times

[ordinaryman]

They broke several things. Try to use birchwood planks to make anything.
another total fail of a snapshot.

[Turbulence510]

um just for the record when is 1.5 coming out?

[Shourin]

I post this every time there is a snapshot and i have submitted it to the bug tracker as soon as I found this white spaces that showed up since the introduction of the new block / item texture  setup.

Screenshots

Seen in ALL Minecraft versions up till Snapshot 13w01a



After new texture setup in Snapshot 13w02a => 13w07a


However I have got no replies until the 13w7a snapshot by Random_Guy_32.

I believe that's a problem with your graphic card.

I ask if it was my graphs card then why does it show only in the snap shots newer than 13w01a??

I also found via reddit that other people who have kick a#$ beefy computers "High end gaming machines" also get this bug., "etho" This can be seen in one of etho's videos where he is building a game arena. A posted fix for Ati/AMD video cards does not fix this.

I also discovered that if you get a good angle on these cracks you can see what's on the other side. This could give people a unfair advantage if used in pvp related games. It's hard to do now but with optifine zoom it will be easy to abuse.

the BUD block is only going to be added if they broke BUDS because BUDS are a bug that never got fixed (for a reason)

This happens to me also but I've never seen through a block on this. And this will be fixed too. Really it's not a big deal bro.

[stabatha2011]

There seems to be a big problem with spruce wood? Will not make a work bench or sticks when using planks on the update? I will re-download and try again.

[Markwell99]

Wow a constructive rant topic about Minecraft. I must still be sleeping.

[Sparko1999]

What is the animation definition and how do i get it to work with my animations?

[xSatuim]

x512 Texture Packs are overkill in any situation
But nice to know that we are a lot of steps closer to having a better minecraft and beside HD Textures, Animated Textures, No Mod, I'm not complaining

what you are seeing is sloppy textures. I run one of those mega computers, and get the same thing. I use a texture pack to get rid of it.

[Doctor_Who_]

This snapshot even better.

[ZeroHazard]

one bugfix must lead to another, and in this snapshot you can only craft wooden items with birch wood.
