It's that time again - Snapshot time! What goodies lie in this week's test client? Mojang had this to say about the 12w49a Snapshot:
“What’s this? This doesn’t sound like a redstone update at all!”, you say. “Indeed,” we say. Thing is, we* suddenly decided we wanted to make sure that you have fireworks for New Year’s Eve, so we’re working in several parallel branches of the code now. One is for the 1.5 “Redstone Update,” and one is now for a 1.4.6 patch update. This update will be out before Christmas, and 1.5 will wait until January (or possibly February).
*Send complaints to jeb_
Changelog:
- Added fireworks (sound effects will come soon)
- Added enchanted books for enchanting items
- Netherbrick slabs?!
- Plenty of bugs addressed!
Wait a minute - enchanting books?! What the heck are those? As it turns out, Dinnerbone had some pretty awesome plans for the anvil when it first came out, and they included, among other things, the inclusion of sweet enchantment books!

yeah thats right!
May I suggest adding a signed book to the star recipe so it writes whatever the first line of the book is in the sky. It'd make for an awesome Game Over message at the end of adventure maps.
You don't.
You are not supposed to open up the minecraft.jar. You just have to replace it with the one you downloaded.
To the person earlier, you don't need to delete META-INF or do anything, just replace the file! Snapshots are not mods.
1.4.3 was for emergency fixes, 1.4.4 and 1.4.5 were to fix the fixes, but this‽ This is just cruel and unnecessary! Every single time you get some dumb idea in your head you go and make another version of 1.4 and it's way past enough! You know what Jeb? I'm sick of this! I'm sick of your stupid updates always adding more bugs and breaking my mods! I was excited about the Redstone Update at first but it's just not good enough anymore, now I don't want to see any more updates ever again, all they ever do is break everything and contribute nothing so I think it's about time for you and Dinnerbone and all the rest of Mojang to just BUZZ OFF!
↑Actually I don't believe any of that, I just thought it would be fun to write a rant! And it was!
Diamond makes the explosion trail outward
Feathers make it burst randomly
Gold nugget makes the explosion star shaped
Adding colors makes it colored any way you want
Adding a color to the colored star makes it fade into a different color
Glowstone dust makes it twinkle
Adding more gunpowder to the rest of the mix makes it go on for longer
Adding more colored stars to the rest of the mix makes the colors and explosions overlap
Can be put on the ground or in dispensers
Firework stars are a gunpowder, a color, and addons are the ingredients earlier mentioned
Fire charge makes the explosion bigger
Enchantment books:
You can enchant any item with the books by placing them with an anvil
Only one enchantment
Enchant fish with sharpness to make a holy mackerel c:

(tell me if I missed anything with the fireworks or books)
For me its a burning torch while the ghostly fireworks of deceased creepers loom above my head... I remember back in seecret friday 9 when i first got minecraft, lol i was so excited for the compass, then the pumpkins, and biome colours, and the nether, and ghasts when they screamed the most, and all kinds of things that are now the norm these minecraft days... its gone far...
I know not every item but I am still implying that the power to enchant items makes the sword relatively useless.
Put it in a dispenser and power it
Yeah you get so excited when you first play and you are also scared of the monsters even more.The first time I played minecraft i lived on a little island and when i came back to the island there were 2 creepers 3 skeletons 1 zombie and 2 spiders
They just cost one gunpowder but if your a peaceful maniac then it would be pretty hard i am a total monster killer.I during the day I [in minecraft] would go to my melon farm and collect all of the mellons then go mine for two iron at least so i could make a new sword
