Snapshot 13w21a Ready For Testing!

It's time for another exciting Snapshot! The Mojang crew was hanging in Monaco last week, but rest assured, this week's Snapshot is nothing shy of sweet! Let's see what's on the menu:

FEATURES:

Added new UI for horses, to control saddle/armour/inventory.
Started to move over various things to a new Attribute system. You may see some new tooltips, don’t be scared!
Lots of work towards a new Resource Pack system, but not finished yet. Currently still compatible with texture packs.
New internal chat system; lots of messages should be translated now that weren’t previously.

BUGFIXES:

Damaged Anvils do not show damage in inventory or item frame
XP Bar in creative
Hay Bales do not burn when set on fire
XP, Health and hungerbar are buggy with horses
Using a horse spawn egg on a horse works only when riding the horse
Can’t throw enderpearls while mounting a horse
Player appearance not updating in multiplayer (armor, tools)
No way to remove armor or saddles off a horse
Horse name tag is shown while riding
Sides of cauldron has compass texture after placing compass in Item Frame
Bottom part of some types of horses-harness is misplaced
Selected item disappears when armor breaks

HOW TO DOWNLOAD:

You can test the latest Snapshot in the new launcher (still in testing!), or download the jar directly from one of the links below. Select the link for your operating system!

I was scrolling through the .minecraft pictures, and I found an image for "skis"

You're like 5 months late. Congratulations!

[sarcasm] Yeah, it's definitely Grum. And if your wondering why he's so short, it's because he's making use of the new size preference feature. [/sarcasm]

This snapshot seems to have a lot more problems that the last one.

Sound stops working after a few minutes, sprinting doesn't work, and it seems like they've rolled back the way redstone works in unloaded chunks. In the last little bit it seemed that redstone kept working if the chunk was not loaded. Like I could set up a command block with redstone and it would keep working no matter where I was. Now it seems like it's back to the old behavior where the chunk that it's in actually has to be loaded for it to be working.

"Elmo" is Grum, a Mojangsta with an Elmo skin. That's either him standing one block in the ground, or a head with him as the "skullowner" tag.

Lame... first you make horse armor impossible to get without cheating for some players then you make them unstackable. Someone please fire dinnerbone before this game gets any more down the path of "Games that were great." The amount of retarded design decisions, IMHO anyways, that are being made is so far away from what made Minecraft great in the first place I find myself playing it less and less with each snapshot.

Then go and play the older Miencraft if you think a buggier and less feature filled game is fine to you.

1.8.1; Hunger bar, first stupid additions like strongholds and the end, along with horrible world gen.
1.0; Idiotic villagers, strongholds, EXP, etc etc.
1.1; Jeb is useful for the first and last time ever, fixes the "no snow in taigas" bug, but ruins it by adding his idiotic "beaches", which are nothing like the beaches of the old times.
1.2; The jungle biome, new, and useless.
1.2.5; Okay, jeb was useful 3 times then; He added in the new wood blocks, which are quite nice.
1.3.whatever; Trading, jeb ruins the game for people with lesser computers and makes SSP run on a server, an idiotic decision. Also finally added in his idiotic little "Adventure mode" which isn't useful in the slightest. Overpowered his useless EXP system and made ores drop exp. Overpowered loot and added in un challenging desert pyramids from which you get diamonds and other stuff. Same goes for jungle temples. Ripped off the Ender chest mod and made an inferior version of it. Finally got rid of the purpose of gathering ice in the same update he let ice be gathered in.
1.4; Finally ruined the game, I won't even bother trying to list it all, just sum it up; Everything sucked. The end.
1.5; Killed it.
1.6; The "Kicking a dead horse" update. BADUM TSS!

So the game got so bad it died multiple times? Nice. Do you keep looking up the release notes just to justify the complaining?
