'''[[Minecraft:Skeleton horse]]s and [[Minecraft:zombie horse]]s'''
* Baby variant no longer grows up.

=== General ===
'''General'''
* Changed the internals of how chunk geometry data is stored in GPU memory and how they are rendered.

'''[[Minecraft:Block model]]'''
* Any block model can now support cutout or translucent (partially transparent pixels) textures.
** Whether a quad is rendered in the cutout or translucent render pass is determined by the contents of its assigned sprite.
*** Any sprite with translucent (partially transparent) pixels will be assigned to the "translucent" pass.
*** Any sprite with fully transparent pixels will be assigned to the "cutout" pass.
*** All other sprites are assigned to the "solid" pass.
* The format of the <code>textures</code> map has been updated:
** Non-string entries will now be rejected, instead of interpreted as strings.
** Alongside the previous inline sprite ID form, entries can now be defined as an object with fields:
*** <code>sprite</code> - the sprite ID
*** <code>force_translucent</code> - optional boolean, <code>true</code> if any geometry with this texture should be forced into the "translucent" pass.
**** This is useful for example for blocks that don't have any translucent pixels, but use the <code>mean</code> mipmap strategy.
**** Default: <code>false</code>

'''[[Minecraft:Chat]]'''
* The chat screen can now always be opened, even when chatting is restricted by settings.
** When the chat screen is open, specific actions and message types may still be restricted.
** Information about the restrictions (if there are any) is displayed on top of the chat box and above the chat input when the chat screen is open.
** The same information can also be accessed in World Settings screen.
* Chat entries from client actions like taking screenshots will now be displayed even when messages from players and servers are restricted.
* Changing chat settings will now hide all messages of restricted types and discard any new ones.
* The handling of chat messages on a published local server is now more consistent with dedicated servers in regard to chat settings.

'''[[Minecraft:Data pack]]'''
* The [[Minecraft:pack format]] version is now <code>99.1</code>.

'''Mob sound variant'''
* Added adult sound variants for the following animals:
** Cats have a new variant called <code>royal</code>.
** Pigs have new variants called <code>mini</code> and <code>big</code>.
** Cows have a new variant called <code>moody</code>.
** Chickens have a new variant called <code>picky</code>.
** The original sounds of each animal are used for the variant called <code>classic</code>.
** Every one of these animals will have a random sound variant assigned to it from the new variants and the original one.
* [[Minecraft:Cat]] sound variants
** Cat sound variants can be data-driven by adding entries to <code>data//cat_sound_variant/.json</code>
** The file contains two sound sets defining <code>adult_sounds</code> and <code>baby_sounds</code>
** Each sound set contains the following fields which correspond to sound events to use for the specific behavior:
*** <code>ambient_sound</code>
*** <code>stray_ambient_sound</code>
*** <code>hiss_sound</code>
*** <code>hurt_sound</code>
*** <code>death_sound</code>
*** <code>eat_sound</code>
*** <code>beg_for_food_sound</code>
*** <code>purr_sound</code>
*** <code>purreow_sound</code>
* [[Minecraft:Pig]] sound variants
** Pig sound variants can be data-driven by adding entries to <code>data//pig_sound_variant/.json</code>
** The file contains two sound sets defining <code>adult_sounds</code> and <code>baby_sounds</code>.
** Each sound set contains the following fields which correspond to sound events to use for the specific behavior:
*** <code>ambient_sound</code>
*** <code>hurt_sound</code>
*** <code>death_sound</code>
*** <code>step_sound</code>
* [[Minecraft:Cow]] sound variants
** Cow sound variants can be data-driven by adding entries to <code>data//cow_sound_variant/.json</code>
** Each sound variant contains the following fields which correspond to sound events to use for the specific behavior:
*** <code>ambient_sound</code>
*** <code>hurt_sound</code>
*** <code>death_sound</code>
*** <code>step_sound</code>
* [[Minecraft:Chicken]] sound variants
** Chicken sound variants can be data-driven by adding entries to <code>data//chicken_sound_variant/.json</code>
** The file contains two sound sets defining <code>adult_sounds</code> and <code>baby_sounds</code>.
** Each sound set contains the following fields which correspond to sound events to use for the specific behavior:
*** <code>ambient_sound</code>
*** <code>hurt_sound</code>
*** <code>death_sound</code>
*** <code>step_sound</code>

'''[[Minecraft:Resource pack]]'''
* The version is now <code>81.0</code>.
* Updated <samp>mule_baby.png</samp> and <samp>donkey_baby.png</samp> to fit the model properly.

'''[[Minecraft:Shader]]s'''
* The <code>block.vsh</code> and <code>terrain.vsh</code> no longer receive the <code>Normal</code> vertex attribute.
* Some small changes were to how various shaders sample the lightmap texture. This includes <code>core/entity.vsh</code>, <code>core/item.vsh</code>, <code>core/rendertype_leash.vsh</code>, <code>core/rendertype_text.vsh</code>, <code>core/rendertype_text_background.vsh</code>, <code>core/rendertype_text_intensity.vsh</code>, and <code>core/rendertype_translucent_moving_block.vsh</code>.
