{{main|Command Block}}
All three variants of the command block are obtainable solely via external inventory editors, as opposed to ''[[Minecraft:Java Edition]]'' and ''[[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition]]'', where command blocks are easily accessible through [[Minecraft:cheats]]. They are completely stripped from any in-game functionality, lacking a corresponding [[Minecraft:GUI]] and the ability to run [[Minecraft:commands]]. The game still calls on and applies the textures accordingly which seems to imply command blocks were functional in development builds of the game and used by [[Minecraft:4J Studios]]. Several functions and NBT data relating to opening and using command blocks as well as for running many different types of commands are also present in the game data.

A barrier is a solid and invisible block, also acquired through inventory editors. It mostly behaves like intended, aside from casting shadows like a normal block, making it moderately visible as a result. Interestingly, 4J Studios themselves utilized barriers in the [[Minecraft:Update Aquatic]] [[Minecraft:Legacy Console Edition tutorial|tutorial world]]{{until|TU73|nocat=1}} and various [[Minecraft:Mini games|Mini game]] maps, notably the glide track [[Minecraft:Shrunk (Glide track)|Shrunk]].

{{main|Wood}}
A block with the [[Minecraft:log]]'s bark texture on all six sides is referred to as wood. They have multiple variants, corresponding to each wood type and their stripped forms. They are broken with an [[Minecraft:axe]]. Unlike in modern editions of the game, they can not be crafted into [[Minecraft:planks]]. Nor is wood [[Minecraft:flammable]] despite its appearance, although it does catch [[Minecraft:fire]] from [[Minecraft:lava]]. [[Minecraft:Furnaces]] accept wood as [[Minecraft:fuel]].

{{main|Petrified Oak Slab}}
{{main|Petrified Oak Slab}}
Before the addition of the current [[Minecraft:wooden slab]] and its variants in [[Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU9]], the original wooden slab was merely another variant of a [[Minecraft:Smooth Stone Slab|stone slab]]. Thus, it was not flammable and had to be broken with a pickaxe, in spite of being optically identical to a standard oak slab.
The original wooden slab was merely another variant of the [[Minecraft:Smooth Stone Slab|stone slab]]. Thus, it was not flammable and had to be broken with a pickaxe, in spite of being optically identical to a current oak slab. The [[Minecraft:Spruce (disambiguation)|spruce]] and [[Minecraft:Birch (disambiguation)|birch]] wooden slab variants added in [[Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU9]] use the correct block type and do not share these traits. [[Minecraft:Jungle (disambiguation)|Jungle]] slabs added in [[Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU12]] also use the correct block type.


When the new wooden slab was added, the old one was removed from [[Minecraft:crafting]] and the [[Minecraft:Creative inventory]],{{verify|no they weren't, they definitely persisted in the creative inventory for some time alongside the birch/spruce/jungle slabs before being corrected}} making it inaccessible by those means. However, old wooden slabs was not converted upon updating a [[Minecraft:world]]. Therefore, it is still legitimately obtainable through old world saves.
The petrified oak slab had finally been replaced with the proper wooden oak slab in the [[Minecraft:crafting]] and [[Minecraft:Creative inventory]] menus in [[Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU17]]/[[Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.07]], marking it inaccessible through normal means. However, petrified oak slabs were not converted upon upgrading a [[Minecraft:world]] in {{LCE}}. Thereby, it is still possible to obtain petrified slabs by loading a save prior to TU17/1.07.

A minecart with command block only exists in its item form. Trying to place one down will summon a regular [[Minecraft:minecart]] instead.

Since the Legacy Console never received the [[Minecraft:Combat Update]], the spectral arrow ultimately went unused.

'''Placeholder textures'''
'''Placeholder textures'''


Several placeholder textures can be found in <samp>terrain.png</samp> and <samp>items.png</samp> due to animated textures being sourced from elsewhere. If the animated textures are removed, these textures are displayed as any other tile on the atlas would be, and, by extension, any tile on the atlases can be animated as long as the correct [[Minecraft:resource identifier]] is provided.
Several textures found in <samp>terrain.png</samp> and <samp>items.png</samp> are, by a technicality, unused due to animated textures being used for their tiles. Technically these textures are used while loading the animated textures, but disappear nearly instantaneously due to the simple nature of most animations in the game. However, they can appear for a noticeable amount of time if the animation is quite large, which is why the first frame of the animations are usually the ones used on the terrain atlas. If the animated textures are removed, these textures are displayed as any other tile on the atlas would be. By extension, this makes any tile on the atlases eligible for an animated texture, as long as the correct [[Minecraft:resource identifier]] is provided in the file path.


'''Unused shulker box layer'''
'''Unused shulker box overlay tile'''


<samp>terrain.png</samp> has an unused tile which was intended to be used in [[Minecraft:texture packs]] as a non-tinted overlay for shulker boxes. This can be seen in the Norse Mythology [[Minecraft:mash-up pack]]'s <samp>terrain.png</samp> file. However, the game does not attempt to call for it.
[[File:LCE Texture Shulker Overlay.png|thumb|176px|class=pixel-image|A comparison of terrain atlases displaying the unused shulker box overlay tile]]
<samp>terrain.png</samp> has an unused tile which was intended to be used in [[Minecraft:texture packs]] as a non-tinted overlay for [[Minecraft:shulker boxes]] because {{LCE}} shulkers have tinted layers, unlike in other editions. The shulker box tile present is used for the particles that appear when breaking a block. The intended use of the unused tile can be found in the Norse Mythology Mash-Up Pack's files where the previously assumed empty space on <samp>terrain.png</samp> is filled by the top of the shulker box texture. However, the programmers erroneously did not put the tile into the game and the tile does not have a valid resource location. This results in a strange phenomenon in the Norse Mythology Mash-Up Pack where the particles of a broken shulker box appear to only be of the colored markings on the top of the shulker box, but not of the box itself.

When setting the game type of a mini game to "Custom" before creating a lobby, the player has the ability to modify various aspects of the mini game through customizable settings. In addition to the existing options, several more were planned to be included for [[Minecraft:Battle (mini game)|Battle]] and [[Minecraft:Tumble]]. Nevertheless, these options have eventually been cut, ostensibely because they were deemed unnecessary by the developers. Their labels and descriptors have remained in the localization data.

'''Vote kick'''
When Battle initially released, it was possible to kick players during an active round, given that a sufficient amount of players voted in favor of it. This feature has been removed in [[Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU38]]/[[Minecraft:Xbox One Edition CU26]]/[[Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.30]]/[[Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.30]]/[[Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition 1.30]]/[[Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 9]].

The large variant hides a second [[Minecraft:lava]] sea beneath the normally accessible layer of lava. Along with numerous leftover cages and an early location for the bottom high-value [[Minecraft:chest]], both of which are also found underground, it hints at the possibility that the arena's floor originally extended deeper.
In the large variant, an unseen [[Minecraft:village]] and a structure consisting of [[Minecraft:Mossy Stone Bricks|mossy stone bricks]] inside a river can be found next to the cavern's opening. The latter is positioned right above an ascending stairway connecting to the arena but simply serves as a set dressing and is not reachable. This implies that the stairs were initially supposed to lead up to the surface, instead of being blocked off at their top steps. A testing area with various utility blocks is set up further away, which was ostensibly used by the developers to test interaction privileges or similar in [[Minecraft:Battle (mini game)|Battle]].

Three copies of the same [[Minecraft:cave]] system are located in the immediate vicinity of the large variant's arena, originally planned to be an accessible section of the map. It is unfinished, partially decorated and would have seemingly contained a single loot chest. Only one copy actually connects to the main arena and is somewhat visible through a set of [[Minecraft:Iron Bars|iron bars]] positioned to the large skull's right.
An inaccessible [[Minecraft:cave]] section is located behind the large arena's eastern rock face. It is mostly decorated and seemingly a scrapped portion of the map. Two routes of the cave connect to the eastern escarpment's midpoint and base. Both cave entrances have been sealed off with [[Minecraft:Iron Bars|iron bars]], rendering the cave partially viewable from the arena. Although the third route is a dead end, its heading and close proximity to the arena's giant skull suggest it would have led to the skull's interior. Several immured rooms are found around the cave, with one holding a [[Minecraft:chest]]. Another chest is found enclosed within the mountain. Neither is filled during gameplay. Two copies of the unused cave section are found beyond the arena's western escarpment. These look to be earlier versions of the cave section, lacking [[Minecraft:redstone]] ores and blocks. Furthermore, these copies exhibit broken [[Minecraft:block states]], physical damage dealt by [[Minecraft:explosions]], and cut-offs. One copy is reachable through escaping the arena by swimming up a waterfall on the western escarpment.

This format was replaced with <code>Media.arc</code> files that housed Adobe Shockwave Flash files containing UI graphics and layouts. This was until SWF files were replaced with a custom file format, named FUI, in [[Minecraft:1.52|PlayStation Editions 1.52]], [[Minecraft:Xbox One Edition CU44]], and [[Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 24]]. According to Steven Woodward, also known as 4JSteve, this change was made because the old format presented memory constraints in all editions and performance issues for ''[[Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition]]''<ref>https://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/minecraft-editions/minecraft-playstation-3-edition/mcps3-discussion/2389591-mcps3-official-known-bugs-discussion?page=9#c224</ref>.

The playable area of the seed can also be panned horizontally and vertically with directional inputs. The world does not generate accurately to the preview, likely due to removed code, leaving artifacts where the world would have ended if it was not shifted or scaled. The strings for this menu are translated in other languages, implying that this was a planned feature rather than a developer tool.

For the {{{Description}}} of the same name, see [[{{{Destination}}}]].

Template:Exclusive

Since the beginning of Minecraft:Minecraft's development, numerous features have been added that are inaccessible and have no actual use. Minecraft:Legacy Console Edition contains a wide variety of such features, namely remnants from other editions, leftover debug material utilized during development and other scrapped elements.

Blocks

Command blocks

Template:Main All three variants of the command block are obtainable solely via external inventory editors, as opposed to Minecraft:Java Edition and Minecraft:Bedrock Edition, where command blocks are easily accessible through Minecraft:cheats. They are completely stripped from any in-game functionality, lacking a corresponding Minecraft:GUI and the ability to run Minecraft:commands. The game still calls on and applies the textures accordingly which seems to imply command blocks were functional in development builds of the game and used by Minecraft:4J Studios. Several functions and NBT data relating to opening and using command blocks as well as for running many different types of commands are also present in the game data. Equally inoperative conditional variants are acquired by incrementing a command block's data value.

The blocks' descriptions state "Used to execute commands."

Barrier

width=125x125
width=125x125

Template:Main A barrier is a solid and invisible block, only obtainable through inventory editing. It mostly behaves like its Template:JE counterpart, aside from casting shadows like a normal block, making it moderately visible as a result. 4J Studios utilized barriers in official world templates, notably in the Minecraft:Update Aquatic tutorial world and various mini game maps including the glide track Shrunk. The barrier blocks have later been removed from the Update Aquatic tutorial world in Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU73/Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.82/Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.83/Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition 1.82/Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 42.

Its description states "An invisible but solid block."

Wood

Template:Main A block with the Minecraft:log's bark texture on all six sides is referred to as wood. They have multiple variants, corresponding to each wood type and their stripped forms. They are broken with an Minecraft:axe. Unlike in modern editions of the game, they can not be crafted into Minecraft:planks. Furthermore, wood is not Minecraft:flammable despite its appearance, although it does catch Minecraft:fire from Minecraft:lava. Minecraft:Furnaces accept wood as Minecraft:fuel.

All variants of wood have later been added as obtainable blocks in both Minecraft:Creative and Minecraft:Survival in Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.90, it being the only version of Legacy Console Edition to have received the Minecraft:Village & Pillage update.

Their descriptions state "Chopped using an axe, and can be crafted into planks or used as a fuel."

Petrified oak slab

width=125x125
width=125x125

Template:Main The original wooden slab was merely another variant of the stone slab. Thus, it was not flammable and had to be broken with a pickaxe, in spite of being optically identical to a current oak slab. The spruce and birch wooden slab variants added in Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU9 use the correct block type and do not share these traits. Jungle slabs added in Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU12 also use the correct block type.

The petrified oak slab had finally been replaced with the proper wooden oak slab in the Minecraft:crafting and Minecraft:Creative inventory menus in Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU17/Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.07, marking it inaccessible through normal means. However, petrified oak slabs were not converted upon upgrading a Minecraft:world in Template:LCE. Thereby, it is still possible to obtain petrified slabs by loading a save prior to TU17/1.07.

Its description states "Used for making long staircases. Two slabs placed on top of each other will create a normal-sized double slab block."

Unused block entity data

Block Entity Tag Description Notes
Template:BlockLink Template:Nbt Non-functional, possibly a remnant from Minecraft:brewing Minecraft:potions in cauldrons. Present on all cauldrons by default.
Template:BlockLink Template:Nbt When set to 1, the end gateway teleports the player to the exact specified coordinates upon entering. End gateways normally teleport players to the approximate coordinates.
Template:BlockLink Template:Nbt Non-functional, possibly a remnant from custom player heads. Present on all heads with an empty value by default.
Template:BlockLink Template:Nbt Specifies the name of the held item needed to open the box. When trying to open it without the key, the sound of a Minecraft:wooden door closing is played and a chat message containing the name of the container, or blank if a custom one isn't provided, is displayed for the player attempting to open it.
Template:BlockLink Template:Nbt When set to 1, every line of the sign reads "Censored". The actual text strings are still stored in the sign's data. Present on all signs with value 0 by default.

Items

debug_fourj_item

Template:Main debug_fourj_item has the texture of a barrier, no display name nor description. As its ID suggests, it was utilized during development for debugging purposes. When used on a Minecraft:mob, it sets that mob to be Minecraft:persistent. Oddly, the Minecraft:item texture ID barrier only applies to this item, as the actual barrier uses the block texture ID barrier.

Minecart with command block

width=125x125
width=125x125

Template:Main The minecart with command block only exists in item form. Trying to place one down will summon a regular Minecraft:minecart instead. According to Java Edition and Bedrock Edition, its intended purpose was to execute commands upon interacting with an activator rail.

The game's localization data contains the unused description for this item, which states "Used to execute commands on the move!"

Spectral arrow

width=125x125
width=125x125

Template:Main Since Legacy Console Edition never received Minecraft:Combat Update's combat changes, the spectral arrow has gone unused. It can be shot using a Minecraft:bow and even has its particle trail ported over. Due to the absence of a functional Minecraft:Glowing effect, it acts identically to a normal arrow.

Its description states "Gives the victim a glowing outline that can be seen through blocks."

Shield

Template:Main Code for the shield is present in the game data, but needs to be assigned an item form manually to be obtained in-game. Despite having a model present in the game's code, it is not seen in-game. It further lacks a texture, display name, and description. It functions like intended, absorbing most of the damage dealt to the player.

The shield was later added properly in PlayStation 4 Edition 1.90.

Tattered written book

The "Tattered" fourth generation for Minecraft:written books is not obtainable in standard gameplay. It can only be acquired by setting the Template:Nbt tag of a written book to 3.

Unused item data

Item Tag Description
All items Template:Nbt Intended to define which blocks the item can destroy. Even though it is non-functional, the defined blocks still show up in the item's Minecraft:tooltip.

Template:Nbt Adds Minecraft:status effects to the potion or tipped arrow with the specified potency and duration. They are listed in the potion's or arrow's tooltip.

Entities

Giant

width=152x152
width=152x152

Template:Main A giant is a 12 block tall Minecraft:hostile mob carried over from Java Edition. Due to its lack of Minecraft:AI, it will not move unless hit by a player and is never actually aggravated towards them. A giant can pick up dropped items and equip gear. It was intended to resemble a zombie, ultimately however only uses its model but not its texture file, applying arrows.png instead. It has Template:Health Minecraft:health points and drops 5 Minecraft:experience points in addition to any equipped items upon Minecraft:death.

The Killer Bunny

width=106x106
width=106x106

Template:Main The killer bunny is a hostile variant of the Minecraft:rabbit, summoned by setting a rabbit's Template:Nbt tag to 99. In-game, it will automatically be given the Minecraft:custom name "entity.KillerBunny.name". It will not despawn when the difficulty is set to Minecraft:peaceful. It attacks nearby players, dealing Template:Health damage on Minecraft:easy, Template:Health on Minecraft:normal and Template:Health on Minecraft:hard difficulty. A killer bunny becomes passive when it is lured by a player with a Minecraft:carrot in their hand. It has Template:Health health points and the same Minecraft:drops as normal rabbits.

Its description states "A hostile rabbit that will attack you if you get too close! May drop a rabbit hide or a rabbit's foot when killed."

Illusioner

width=183x183
width=183x183

Template:MainAn illusioner is an unused Minecraft:illager from Java Edition. An illusioner attacks players, Minecraft:iron golems and Minecraft:villagers with a bow once manually equipped with one. When lacking its weapon, it becomes passive. It creates four fake duplicates when attacking, while being invisible itself. The duplicates vanish as soon as the real illusioner's Minecraft:Invisibility effect fades. It can also cast Minecraft:Blindness for 20 seconds on its victim. An illusioner has Template:Health health points and can drop its bow as well as other equipped items along with 5 experience points.

Its description states "Illusioners are hostile. They attack with a bow, and use magic to confuse!"

Unused entity data

Entity Tag Description Notes
All Minecraft:entities Template:Nbt Non-functional, intended to make the entity invulnerable to damage. Present on all entities with value 0 by default.
Template:Nbt When set to 1, the entity no longer emits Minecraft:sounds.
Template:Nbt When set to 1, the entity ignores Minecraft:gravity and will not fall.
Template:Nbt When set to 1, the entity's custom name is always visible, regardless of being directly looked at or not. Oddly, this only works on some non-mob entities. This used to work on all entities until Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU25/Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.17/Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.17/Minecraft:Xbox One Edition CU14/Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition 1.17, and worked on even fewer entities after Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU69/Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.76/Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.76/Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition 1.76/Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 38.
All Minecraft:mobs Template:Nbt When set to 1, the mob's movement and behavior are disabled.

Template:Nbt Specifies the string ID of the displayed block.
Template:EntityLink Template:Nbt Changes the color of the shulker's shell to one of the 16 main colors.

Status effects

Glowing

Template:Main Glowing is an unused status effect that lacks functionality. It was intended to be inflicted on players or mobs hit by spectral arrows and give its victim a glowing outline that is seen through blocks.

Saturation

Template:Main Saturation is another non-functional status effect, intended to instantly replenish empty hunger points in the Minecraft:hunger bar. Unlike the other unused effects, it has no effect icon.

Blindness

Template:Main Blindness impairs the player's vision down to a four block radius, engulfing the rest in a thick black fog. It prevents Minecraft:sprinting and dealing Minecraft:critical hits. The aforementioned illusioner is capable of inflicting this effect.

Health Boost

Template:Main Health Boost increases the maximum health points by four per level. The additional health is not visible in the player's Minecraft:health bar, whereas the health bars of ridden mobs with the effect do show it. It shares Minecraft:Absorption's effect icon and functions similarly, with the difference of having to regenerate the added health points manually. When the effect fades, the screen jolts as if taking damage.

Bad Luck

Template:Main Bad Luck is a status effect contrary to Minecraft:Luck. Whereas the latter is leastwise obtainable from the Creative inventory, Bad Luck goes unused entirely. It subtracts the effect level from the player's luck Minecraft:attribute, decreasing the chances of getting high-quality loot through Minecraft:fishing.

Gameplay

Hardcore mode

Template:Main Remnants of Java Edition's Hardcore mode are still present in the game data. The mode can be unlocked by externally modifying the world data, though any leftover functionality is sparse. It locks the difficulty to hard, as any attempt to change it will result in the difficulty slider reverting back. The player's health bar remains normal and players can still respawn after death.

Build Off

Template:MainBuild Off was a planned mini game similar to "Build Battle" on Template:JE and Template:BE Minecraft:servers. Despite being cancelled before Template:LCE was discontinued, the game's code contains multiple references to the scrapped mode. Calls for music cues as well as leaderboard functions also exist in the game data. It is implied that Minecraft:texture pack support for the mode was planned as texture packs have the ability to overridde the music cues for it.

Unsendable death messages

Death message Trigger Notes
{*PLAYER*} was squashed by a falling block.Template:Sic Appears when the player is killed by a falling block modified to deal damage that is not an Minecraft:anvil. Besides an anvil, no falling block deals damage upon hitting a player in regular gameplay.

Music

Template:Main

Build Off music track list

A music track list, called "categories" in Template:JE and Template:BE, has been programmed for the Build Off mini game and is completely functional if set to play. The track list calls for MG04_01.binka, which does not exist in any version of Template:LCE, and the six vanilla Minecraft:Creative mode tracks.

Unused texture pack music track lists

Similar to other editions, Minecraft:texture packs have support for overriding music cues of all of the vanilla track lists, but not all of them have been utilized by packs. The music overrides for Minecraft:Creative mode, the Minecraft:Tumble mini game, despite using texture packs for its festive arenas, and the aforementioned Build Off mini game are not used in any pack but are completely functional.

Unused music

EgyptianOverworld9.binka is present in the Egyptian Mythology Mash-Up Pack but erroneously was not defined in the music cues and consequently does not play in the pack. This track is included as track 10 on the Minecraft: Egyptian Mythology Soundtrack titled "Renenutet & Meshkenet (Interlude)".

Sounds

Corrupted cave sounds

Earlier builds of the game contained corrupted Minecraft:cave sounds. The non-corrupted versions used in-game have been stored separately under cave1_fixed and cave8_fixed.

Sound loops

The four unused audio loops from Minecraft:C418's early Java Edition sound tests existed in Xbox 360 Edition's resident.xwb sound bank file as early as Minecraft:1.66.0033.0 until removed in Minecraft:TU57's audio update from XWB to Bink Audio and in the other versions of Template:LCE in the Minecraft.msscmp sound bank file until removed in Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.38/Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.38/Minecraft:Xbox One Edition CU36/Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition 1.38/Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 15. These sounds were removed despite other legacy Java Edition sound effects having remained until the discontinuation of Template:LCE. It was never included in Minecraft:Nintendo Switch Edition. The waterfall loop was extremely compressed, perhaps erroneously, in the sound banks for PlayStation 3 Edition, PlayStation 4 Edition, Xbox One Edition, and PlayStation Vita Edition until Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.21/Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.21/Minecraft:Xbox One Edition CU18/Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition 1.21. It appeared already fixed in Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 1.

Graphics

Blocks and items

Structure block textures

width=160

Minecraft:terrain.png contains unused textures for structure blocks. These texture resources are called on and used by the game for the structure block which implies that structure blocks were used in development builds of the game. There are also several functions relating to opening and using structure blocks in the game data.

Structure void

width=32

The texture for the structure void is impossible to see in the retail version of the game as the structure void itself is not obtainable. Structure voids are present in all versions of Template:LCE and function identically to Template:JE if loaded in a Minecraft:structure file.

Duplicate stems

width=32 width=32

Duplicate stem textures in terrain.png are left over. This was almost certainly to split the textures used by melon stems and pumpkin stems, similar to how birch and oak Minecraft:leaves have been split on the atlas, although it is not clear which it was meant to be.

Placeholder textures

Several textures found in terrain.png and items.png are, by a technicality, unused due to animated textures being used for their tiles. Technically these textures are used while loading the animated textures, but disappear nearly instantaneously due to the simple nature of most animations in the game. However, they can appear for a noticeable amount of time if the animation is quite large, which is why the first frame of the animations are usually the ones used on the terrain atlas. If the animated textures are removed, these textures are displayed as any other tile on the atlas would be. By extension, this makes any tile on the atlases eligible for an animated texture, as long as the correct Minecraft:resource identifier is provided in the file path.

Unused shulker box overlay tile

File:LCE Texture Shulker Overlay.png
A comparison of terrain atlases displaying the unused shulker box overlay tile

terrain.png has an unused tile which was intended to be used in Minecraft:texture packs as a non-tinted overlay for Minecraft:shulker boxes because Template:LCE shulkers have tinted layers, unlike in other editions. The shulker box tile present is used for the particles that appear when breaking a block. The intended use of the unused tile can be found in the Norse Mythology Mash-Up Pack's files where the previously assumed empty space on terrain.png is filled by the top of the shulker box texture. However, the programmers erroneously did not put the tile into the game and the tile does not have a valid resource location. This results in a strange phenomenon in the Norse Mythology Mash-Up Pack where the particles of a broken shulker box appear to only be of the colored markings on the top of the shulker box, but not of the box itself.

Particles

Old Bubble

width=32x32

Sprite for bubbles that have gone unused after Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU69/Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.76/Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.76/Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition 1.76/Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 38. Instead, a grayscale bubble sprite from Template:BE is used and tinted using biome specific water colors. The old sprite is still used on Minecraft:Xbox One Edition and Minecraft:Nintendo Switch Edition due to not receiving Minecraft:Update Aquatic.

Angry villager

width=32x32

Unused particle depicting an angry Minecraft:villager.

Bubble pop

width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32

Unused textures for bubbles popping, originally intended to appear at the top of Minecraft:bubble columns<ref>https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC/issues/MC-132067</ref>.

Camera shoot explosion

width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32 width=32x32

Unused Minecraft:explosion particles from Template:BE and Template:Edu. On those editions, they appear when shooting pictures with a Minecraft:camera.

Map icons

Target point

width=32x32

Unused map icon of a red triangle.

Other

Minecraft icon

width=64x64

The user interface assets contain numerous unutilized duplicates of the same Minecraft icon. Such are only sometimes seen when world icons fail to load, although they are sourced from a separate, standalone file in these instances.

Checkbox texture

width=32x32

Unused textures of a selected checkbox can infrequently be found in addition to the aforementioned Minecraft icons.

PS3 Marketing Guide Graphic

File:Unused PS3 layout template (Colors reversed).png

This graphic is found in Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition's and Wii U Edition's DebugUIMarketingGuide720.fui. It was designed to help artists create UI and marketing material for the game. The option to display this graphic is referenced in the debug menu data of other editions with the label "Show Marketing Guide". This graphic is called as a reference in the same UI file in Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition but does not exist.

Xbox One Marketing Guide Graphic

File:XboxOneMarketingGuide.png

A graphic similar to that of the previous entry is found within DebugUIMarketingGuide1080.swf in old versions of PlayStation 4 Edition and Xbox One Edition, and is referenced in but missing from the DebugUIMarketingGuide1080.fui in later versions of PlayStation 4 Edition and Xbox One Edition.

Update Aquatic graphic

width=307x307

The Update Aquatic artwork is shown in the dialog box used to access the store page for Bedrock Edition on Minecraft:Xbox One Edition and Minecraft:Nintendo Switch Edition since Legacy Console Edition was discontinued. However, it was also left in the game files of old-gen editions which did not receive Bedrock Edition and thus do not utilize this graphic.

Old skin select menu

Numerous textures of the old character skin selector are still present in the game files.

Alliance icon

width=32x32

During the development of Battle, teams were planned and partially worked on. Remnants of the scrapped feature are this graphic, leftover game rule data and unused text strings.

Altimeter sprites

A toggle-able altimeter had been planned for Glide. Associated graphics of the discarded mechanic were left over in the game files.

Grass block render

width=64x64

This render of a grass block is used in Minecraft:Wii U Edition on the Game Pad in TV Mode. It remains unutilized in other editions.

Attack cooldown

width=32x32 width=32x32 width=8x8 width=32x32 width=32x32

Unused textures for the attack cooldown from Java Edition.

Enchantment slot

width=32x32 width=32x32

The slot for applying enchantments to an item in the enchanting table used to have a respective icon. Albeit removed in-game later for unknown reasons, its textures have remained.

Mini game placeholder

width=128x128

Minecraft:Wii U Edition contains an early placeholder image that would have been displayed when selecting DLC for Battle. Additionally, it reveals an early name for said mini game.

Altered unused textures

Various unused textures and textures utilized by unused features are altered by texture packs, despite not being seen in-game in those environments.

Text strings

Commands

Strings referencing or hinting at the use of Minecraft:commands are hidden in the localization data.

Localization key Text string

Mini game options

When setting the game type of a mini game to "Custom" before creating a lobby, the player has the ability to modify various aspects of the mini game through customizable settings. In addition to the existing options, several more were planned to be included for Battle and Minecraft:Tumble. Nevertheless, these options have eventually been cut, ostensibely because they were deemed unnecessary by the developers. Their labels and descriptors have remained in the localization data.

Spectator Noises

An option was planned to control whether spectators of Battle rounds were capable of making noises.

Localization key Text string
099B4826 Spectator Noises

Localization key Text string
A3264AED Grace Period
44FADDCB The duration of the invulnerable period at the start of each round.

Hunger Rate

The rate at which the Minecraft:hunger bar of players depletes during Battle was supposed to be its standalone setting.

Localization key Text string
667F2B9D TNT
CDA0E4E3 All players have unlimited TNT. They can place it to destroy all blocks nearby.

Controls

The game's localization data contains several unused strings related to player controls. Apparently, an additional control category for menus has been cut, where actions like opening the pause menu could have been rebound. The abilities to quickly swap items with the offhand and to switch to a left handed playable character are hinted at, too.

Localization key Text string

Worlds

Battle map areas

Template:Expand section

Cavern

In the large variant, an unseen Minecraft:village and a structure consisting of mossy stone bricks inside a river can be found next to the cavern's opening. The latter is positioned right above an ascending stairway connecting to the arena but simply serves as a set dressing and is not reachable. This implies that the stairs were initially supposed to lead up to the surface, instead of being blocked off at their top steps. A testing area with various utility blocks is set up further away, which was ostensibly used by the developers to test interaction privileges or similar in Battle.

Cove

An inaccessible Minecraft:cave section is located behind the large arena's eastern rock face. It is mostly decorated and seemingly a scrapped portion of the map. Two routes of the cave connect to the eastern escarpment's midpoint and base. Both cave entrances have been sealed off with iron bars, rendering the cave partially viewable from the arena. Although the third route is a dead end, its heading and close proximity to the arena's giant skull suggest it would have led to the skull's interior. Several immured rooms are found around the cave, with one holding a Minecraft:chest. Another chest is found enclosed within the mountain. Neither is filled during gameplay. Two copies of the unused cave section are found beyond the arena's western escarpment. These look to be earlier versions of the cave section, lacking Minecraft:redstone ores and blocks. Furthermore, these copies exhibit broken Minecraft:block states, physical damage dealt by Minecraft:explosions, and cut-offs. One copy is reachable through escaping the arena by swimming up a waterfall on the western escarpment.

Crucible

The large variant conceals a second Minecraft:lava sea beneath the normally accessible layer of lava. Along with numerous leftover cages and an early location for the bottom high-value Minecraft:chest, both of which are also found underground, it hints at the possibility that the arena's floor originally extended deeper.

Temple

An entire underground section has been cut from the large variant. It is located right below the temple and would have been accessible through descending stairs at the central spawn. These are sealed off in the map's final rendition. The scrapped section seems fully finished with decoration and even a loot chest that is refilled during gameplay.

Lair

Multiple oddities are present in the small variant. An arrow made out of quartz blocks at world spawn points into the arena's direction. The arena itself has a Minecraft:creeper face carved into its outer walls. Both variants have an unused room that is sealed off from the arena. Whereas the room of the small variant is empty, that of the large variant is fully decorated.

Atlantis

A few inaccessible rooms are located underground which appear to be leftovers from a once planned segment in the arena's large variant that was ultimately scrapped.

Ruin

Both map variants contain several cut rooms and staircases which would have connected different parts of the map. Although a select few are partially decorated, they appear mostly unfinished. Furthermore, parts of the background city scenery around the arenas are heavily obscured and consequently deemed unused.

Siege

Unutilized Minecraft:redstone wiring is scattered throughout the small arena. They appear to have been intended for differing purposes, as, for example, a few connect to various dispensers containing splash potions of Minecraft:weakness, Minecraft:poison and Minecraft:slowness, whereas it is unclear what the rest has been intended for. In addition, between the two canals in the large arena which can be accessed during standard gameplay, an unfinished third canal is found.

Old tutorial world

The file of the Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU46/Minecraft:Xbox One Edition CU36/Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.38/Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.38/Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition 1.38/Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 15 tutorial world is still stored in the game files, despite having been superseded by the Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition TU69/Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition 1.76/Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.76/Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition 1.76/Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 38 tutorial world.

Developer tools

Template:Incomplete section 4J Studios utilized a number of debug tools to aid during Legacy Console Edition's development.

Other

UI data DLC file

An unused DLC file type named UIDataFile that would have originally been used for UI graphics in texture packs, similarly to how other Data DLC files, usually using a .pck extension, hold other graphics for packs. Despite being unused entirely, the file type remains a valid DLC file type for DLC packs although it does nothing and all functionality has been removed. This format was replaced with Media.arc files that housed Adobe Shockwave Flash files containing UI graphics and layouts. This was until SWF files were replaced with a custom file format, named FUI, in PlayStation Editions 1.52, Minecraft:Xbox One Edition CU44, and Minecraft:Wii U Edition Patch 24. According to Steven Woodward, also known as 4JSteve, this change was made because the old format presented memory constraints in all editions and performance issues for Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition<ref>https://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/minecraft-editions/minecraft-playstation-3-edition/mcps3-discussion/2389591-mcps3-official-known-bugs-discussion?page=9#c224</ref>. Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition used Microsoft's proprietary XUI format until switching to .fui in Minecraft:TU57.

Biome preview menu

File:Wii U Edition Biome Preview.png
The biome preview menu on Wii U Edition, as restored by user Pirlo.

An unused menu that displays a map of the seed before it is generated. The user is able to preview the biomes in the seed and each biome is given a unique, but oddly inverted, color entry. The user can also randomize the seed, zoom into the map and change the Minecraft:world size. The playable area of the seed can also be panned horizontally and vertically with directional inputs. The world does not generate accurately to the preview, likely due to removed code, leaving artifacts where the world would have ended if it was not shifted or scaled. The strings for this menu are translated in other languages, implying that this was a planned feature rather than a developer tool.
