Quote from Yvei

Not positive on this but everyone seems to have the same problem on flowers were the grey block appears. What i figured and i think will work is if you switch image to the top so like my code looks like this.

public mod_Bluetulip()
{
Bluetulip.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/Bluetulip.png");
ModLoader.RegisterBlock(Bluetulip);
ModLoader.AddName(Bluetulip, 	"Blue Tulip");
}

so what i am guessing its the same as the flower with the sappling so you gotta move the image above RegisterBlock so if that helps let me know if not then hopefully u figure it out soon.

Whenever a water source is surrounded on all sides by blocks or water (not necessarily source blocks) and it has an air block or (non source) water block below, then that air/water block turns into a water source. From Darquan (I think it is intentional. It eliminates the underwater currents when you place and remove a block. The behaviour seems to be carefully chosen such that it cannot automatically flood entire caves, nor does it seem to break typical ways of using water for automatic harvesting.) Bug.

Most of my testing was done in creative with a diamond sword. I did some tests in survival and couldn't see anything that made me think it was much different to creative.

It's relatively easy to test. Go in creative make a floor of shelves and a roof of shelves only and test what enchant levels you can get. You still get 5 same as with just the table.

It seemed unlikely to me that adding shelves that did do something would suddenly make ones that did nothing do something. Unlikely but not impossible. Now my first thought was that possibly the algorithm to modify the enchantment level might be influenced by not only bookshelves but also by the shelves surrounding that bookshelf, but tests I made didn't seem to indicate that was so.

So far the only positions I've found that add to enchantment levels are
Layer 1






Layer 2






If there are any other positions of shelves that increase the enchantment level I've been unable to find them.

The shelves can be blocked by almost everything. I tested Ladders, torches, redstone torches, levers, buttons, trapdoors, wood & stone pressure plates, signs, redstone and repeaters and found they all block the shelves from increasing enchanting level. The only thing I found that did not block the shelves was pictures.
NB the 8 corner shelves are not blocked by the other shelves.

For those who want to edit your items' enchants (with NBTEdit, for example), enchants are saved in following manner:
Level.dat
Data -> Player -> Inventory -> (your item here) -> tag -> ench -> (TagCompound) ->
id: Id of enchant (list of them at wiki)
lvl: Level of enchant (too big numbers won't crash MC, but it doesn't show them in roman numbers)

You can even enchant other items than those normally enchantable. For example, I tested it with wood planks It shows the glimmering animation in inventory, but not in your hand (dunno if this applies to only blocks or all items not enchantable).

• Crystal Block.
• Fishing Rods can be enchanted.
• Cauldron Icon.
• Color of the label of highlighted object is now purple. Inventory for example.
• Swords and bows have been weakened.
• Endermen do more damage. Unconfirmed.
• Notch's Take on the new baby animals:
The idea with the baby animals is to alter the original models to make them act as new ones. This scales well. Say we want to do old animals or robot animals or whatever in the future. By having it be mutators to the original models, we can add a new animal by just adding a single new model instead of adding four (or whatever) new ones. And even better, to introduce a brand new variant of animals, we don't need to go through them all and add that variant. Source.

Quote from Mouzi

It's called an Air Portal in the code and you can fix it with Ender Eyes.





Doesn't seem to work as of now.
Also, disregard the obsidian, I tried flooding it with water.

Also, someone mentioned that the server now loads a third "level" so that would kind of confirm skylands. Though they have existed before and you can get to them by hacking but I don't know if Notch has changed the skylands for this update.

The sky dimension actually works like it used to work (it's been in the code for quiiite a while) but it gets overwritten by the real world terrain if you visit the real world first. The chunks are in the same folder so they get mixed up.


currently the skylands is just the normal world with different colored sky and clouds are way lower (underground with the normal terrain). The sun is always in the middle of the sky.

Origin
The Standard Galactic Alphabet or SGA is used in the Commander Keen series of computer games. It was created by Tom Hall, who originally just wanted to make the writing on signs in the games look futuristic or alien. Then he realised that he could create a whole alternative alphabet and add cryptic messages throughout the games.

• Animal Breeding! Use wheat to breed. Hold wheat in your hand and they all 'should' follow you. Reports of this being a bit buggy. If you hit an animal in heat, it will stop being in heat.
• Snow Golems attack each other when you try to breed them. And User. Use wheat to make friendly towards you.
• Endermen now take FOUR standard (non-critical) hits with a diamond sword. Zombies & Zombie pigmen 3.
• Endermen now instantly teleport away from water. Agro seems to reset after this. They also dodge all arrows and do not die in the sunlight anymore. New sound effect likely to come in the official release of 1.9
• Zombie Pigmen now randomly drop rotten flesh or gold bits instead of everytime.
• Chickens avoid lava.

• Golden apples have a sparkly animation.
• Golden apple also grants you Regeneration buff for 30 seconds.
• Golden nuggets are officially called "Gold nuggets" now.
• New Items: glass bottles, several new music discs, blaze powder, spider eyes, fermented spider eyes and magma cream. *Items uses unknown - bottles obviously for 'potions' as mentioned on twitter and not implemented yet. Possibly with official release.
• Ender pearls teleports you with the cost of damage when thrown.
• Ender perls do not work in MP.
• Items can be repaired now, just as Notch specified - combine two damaged items to make one with more uses.
• Can't get glass panes back when you break them anymore .
• Pumpkins can be “crafted” into 4 Pumpkin Seeds.
• Milk acts as a "clear all" for effects.

• Wood fences now connect to walls. Fences now only take up the space they appear to, as well as attaching to any solid block adjacent to them. This makes walking through diagonal-oriented fences possible.
• Pressure plates on top of fence posts now make sound when you walk on them or next to them. Cannot place pressure plates on top of nether fence.
• Fences can be placed like normal blocks.
• Normal fences and nether fences don't connect.

EDIT: All possible potion potency levels seem to have I, II, III and IV but not anything over that. After that it will just say potion.potency.5 and 6 and so on.

I decompiled the minecraft.jar files to have a look at the modified health and damage of mobs:

Endermen take 20 hearts of damage and deal 3.5 hearts of damage on normal(was 2.5).
Spiders take 8 hearts of damage.
Zombies take 12 hearts of damage and deal 2 hearts of damage on normal(was 2.5).
Cave spiders take 6 hearts of damage.

This could mean these are specifically potion only, or it's more generic and could be related to enhancements to items as well. (As potion works for that too)

Quote of OgreSean

Mushroom Island: Warm biome. Frequent Rain. Somewhat Mountainous. Land base level near sea level.
Mushroom Island Shore: Warm biome. Frequent Rain. Flat land. Land base far below sea level (same as ocean.

Thus, Mushroom Island biomes actually spawn in the middle of Mushroom Island Shore biomes. However, the land for Shore biomes is underwater, which makes them appear like Oceans.

The top block for these biomes is the "mycel" block I mentioned earlier (which is not town related after all, but does play some kind of melody). No monsters, animals, or squids spawn in these biomes EXCEPT for mushroom cows.

• "Snow" biomes more rare.
• Snowman! - Built by Two snow block then pumpkin PLACES not crafted. Not sure how to make a snowman without a pumpkin head. They fight other "bad" mobs. They drop snowballs.
• Snowmen work in the Nether. (Bug? Unconfirmed.)
• Snow now settles on ice.

Quote of OgreSean

Frozen Ocean: Cold biome. Occasional Rain. Somewhat Mountainous. Land base level far below sea level. No animals spawn in this biome.

Frozen River: Cold biome. Occasional Rain. Flat land. Land base level somewhat below sea level. No animals spawn in this biome.

Ice Plains: Same as Plains, except cold temperature.

Ice Mountains: Same as Extreme Hills, except cold temperature.

• Lilly Pads - Picked up by "Punching". Place by putting next to another lilly or surface block. Lilly Pads turn grey when picked up - bug?
• Darker grass - new grass texture for swamps
• Darker water around the swamp area

• Village Monks - 1 Priest is dressed in white
• A few other skins reported - aprons and pink?
• Reported that the mobs folder have 6 different textures for the villagers. (Butcher, Farmer, Librarian, priest, smith & villager).

• Nether Stairs


• Nether Stronghold - Netherholds!
• Nether Slimes
