'''[[Minecraft:Density function]]s'''
* Changed {{cd|upscale}} (renamed from {{cd|interpolated}})
** Samples the input function at a reduced resolution, and upscales on each axis with the specified modes. Modes that require more samples will generally perform worse. Upscaling is performed by axis in order: Z, X, then Y.
** Format: object with fields:
*** {{cd|input}} - Density Function, the input function to sample
*** {{cd|x}}, {{cd|y}}, {{cd|z}} - object with fields, the configuration for this axis
**** {{cd|mode}} - one of: {{cd|nearest_neighbor}}, {{cd|interpolate_linear}}, {{cd|interpolate_cosine}}, {{cd|interpolate_cubic}}, {{cd|b_spline_cubic}}, the mode to use.
***** {{cd|nearest_neighbor}}
****** 1 sample per axis.
****** Value is discontinuous across cell boundaries, gradient is always {{cd|0}}.
****** Values at cell vertices always equal the cell value.
***** {{cd|interpolate_linear}}
****** 2 samples per axis
****** Value is continuous, gradient is constant within a cell but discontinuous across cell boundaries.
****** Values at cell vertices always equal the cell value.
***** {{cd|interpolate_cosine}}
****** 2 samples per axis.
****** Value and gradient are continuous.
****** Gradient is {{cd|0}} at cell boundaries.
****** Values at cell vertices always equal the cell value.
***** {{cd|interpolate_cubic}}

****** Value and gradient are continuous.
****** Values at cell vertices always equal the cell value.
***** {{cd|b_spline_cubic}}
****** 4 samples per axis.
****** Value and gradient are continuous.
****** Values at cell vertices do not necessarily equal the cell value.
**** {{cd|cell_size}} - integer between 1 and 64, the size of each upscaling cell.
* Changed {{cd|gradient}}
** The {{cd|from_coordinate}} and {{cd|to_coordinate}} fields now additionally accept a Vertical Anchor, as long as axis is {{cd|y}}.
* Added {{cd|domain_warp}}
** Samples an input function by applying an offset to each sampled coordinate.
*** Note: if the offsets change rapidly by large amount, performance may degrade significantly. This function should be used sparingly.
** Format: object with fields:
*** {{cd|input}} — density function, the input function to sample.
*** {{cd|offset_x}} — density function, the offset to apply to sampled X coordinates.
**** The result is implicitly truncated to an integer.
**** If not specified, defaults to: {{cd|0.0}}.
*** {{cd|offset_y}} — density function, the offset to apply to sampled Y coordinates.
**** The result is implicitly truncated to an integer.
**** If not specified, defaults to: {{cd|0.0}}.

  • A spike block that generates as stalactites on the ceiling in Minecraft:ice caves.
    • Can also be placed on the ground as stalagmites.
  • Can naturally grow up to 5 blocks long when pointing downward.
  • Icicles melt and break when a strong enough light source is nearby, or in the Nether.
  • Falling icicles deal damage to entities they collide with, which scales based on the distance they fall before impact.
  • Landing onto an icicle stalagmite multiplies the fall damage taken, which scales based on the height fallen.
  • Like other spike blocks, icicles can be broken by a thrown Minecraft:trident.
  • It can be placed in any direction and has a base, middle and tip variant.

  • A Minecraft:zombie variant that can be found in snowy biomes.
  • Immune to Minecraft:Freezing effect.
  • Burns in sunlight.
  • It has two modes of attacking: a melee attack and a ranged attack.
    • Switches between melee and ranged combat based on target distance and whether they have Minecraft:ice balls.
    • Most frostbites use a standard melee attack, which gives the Freezing effect.
    • Some frostbites spawn holding ice balls, which they throw as a ranged attack.
  • Drops ice balls and Minecraft:rotten flesh when killed.
  • Converts into a zombie when underwater for too long.

  • File:Freezing JE1 BE1.png Minecraft:Freezing
    • An effect that causes an entity to Minecraft:freeze, dealing damage over time and slowing their movement.
      • The Freezing effect will cause players to shake and eventually deal damage.
      • Causes those affected to slowly become frozen as if in powder snow for its duration.
    • Wearing a piece of Minecraft:leather armor prevents the entity from freezing, just like with Minecraft:powder snow, but will not keep the effect from being applied and will not remove the effect.
    • Mobs will take additional damage from Freezing while they are affected by this effect.
      • Mobs that are vulnerable to Freezing have a five times multiplier to the damage taken.
    • Lingering potion, splash potion, and Minecraft:potion of Freezing can be brewed using ice balls.
    • Minecraft:Arrows of Freezing can be crafted by placing a lingering potion of Freezing in the middle of the crafting table surrounded by eight arrows.

  • Each variant now has unique sounds.

Minecraft:Brown mushroom and Minecraft:red mushroom

  • Can now be placed on any block with a top solid face regardless of lighting conditions.

File:Jukebox JE3.png Minecraft:Jukebox

  • Textures changed from File:Jukebox JE2 BE2.png.
  • Will now cycle through music discs in a single Minecraft:chest, Minecraft:trapped chest, or any Minecraft:copper chest variant placed directly above it.

    • When a disc finishes, the jukebox swaps it with the next disc in the chest.
    • If the chest has no music discs, the jukebox will loop its inserted disc.
    • Ejecting the current disc skips to the next available disc.

Minecraft:Noise settings

Minecraft:Placed features

  • The possible domain in the XZ plane of placed features included in biomes is now validated.
    • Feature placement can only occur within a 3×3 chunk region: as such, it is not valid for a Placed Feature to select a position outside of that range.
    • Note: the size of the feature itself is not currently taken into consideration, which may still overflow the chunk.

Placement modifiers

Command format

General

  • NBT conversion from floating point types to integer types now always converts to the closest possible valid number after rounding down.

Minecraft:Data pack

  • The Minecraft:pack format version is now Template:Cd.
  • Entries for different biomes in multi-noise biome sources can no longer overlap across all noise parameters with the same offset.

Minecraft:Debug screen

  • The items in the debug overlay (Template:Keys by default) are now sorted into categories and have been made easier to read and understand.
  • A new Template:Cd shows the rendering status of chunks around the player. This will impact performance at high view distances.
  • The chunk load overlay has been split off from Template:Cd and into a new Template:Cd.

Minecraft:Density functions

  • Changed Template:Cd (renamed from Template:Cd)
    • Samples the input function at a reduced resolution, and upscales on each axis with the specified modes. Modes that require more samples will generally perform worse. Upscaling is performed by axis in order: Z, X, then Y.
    • Format: object with fields:
      • Template:Cd - Density Function, the input function to sample
      • Template:Cd, Template:Cd, Template:Cd - object with fields, the configuration for this axis
        • Template:Cd - one of: Template:Cd, Template:Cd, Template:Cd, Template:Cd, Template:Cd, the mode to use.
          • Template:Cd
            • 1 sample per axis.
            • Value is discontinuous across cell boundaries, gradient is always Template:Cd.
            • Values at cell vertices always equal the cell value.
          • Template:Cd
            • 2 samples per axis
            • Value is continuous, gradient is constant within a cell but discontinuous across cell boundaries.
            • Values at cell vertices always equal the cell value.
          • Template:Cd
            • 2 samples per axis.
            • Value and gradient are continuous.
            • Gradient is Template:Cd at cell boundaries.
            • Values at cell vertices always equal the cell value.
          • Template:Cd
            • 4 samples per axis.
            • Value and gradient are continuous.
            • Values at cell vertices always equal the cell value.
          • Template:Cd
            • 4 samples per axis.
            • Value and gradient are continuous.
            • Values at cell vertices do not necessarily equal the cell value.
        • Template:Cd - integer between 1 and 64, the size of each upscaling cell.
  • Changed Template:Cd
  • Added Template:Cd
    • Samples an input function by applying an offset to each sampled coordinate.
      • Note: if the offsets change rapidly by large amount, performance may degrade significantly. This function should be used sparingly.
    • Format: object with fields:
      • Template:Cd — density function, the input function to sample.
      • Template:Cd — density function, the offset to apply to sampled X coordinates.
        • The result is implicitly truncated to an integer.
        • If not specified, defaults to: Template:Cd.
      • Template:Cd — density function, the offset to apply to sampled Y coordinates.
        • The result is implicitly truncated to an integer.
        • If not specified, defaults to: Template:Cd.
      • Template:Cd — density function, the offset to apply to sampled Z coordinates.
        • The result is implicitly truncated to an integer.
        • If not specified, defaults to: Template:Cd.
    • At least one of Template:Cd, Template:Cd, or Template:Cd must be specified.

Dedicated server properties

  • Added Template:Cd
    • A list of comma-separated ids.
    • If non-empty, the server will match the values against Template:Cd property in Template:Cd packet.
      • If there is no match, the server will reject the connection.
    • This works both for both status and login connections, so any user connecting without the correct Template:Cd in the server address will not see the status and will not be able to join the server.
  • Added Template:Cd field
    • If non-empty, the value of this field will be sent in the Template:Cd packet JSON payload under the contact property.
    • This value is meant to be used to signal a way to contact the server owners about the server, even if there is no website or other information about it.
    • This field is meant to be human-readable, but there are no other restrictions on field format.
  • Added Template:Cd field
    • This option allows disabling existing legacy (pre-1.7) server status and ping protocol handling.
    • To preserve existing functionality, value defaults to Template:Cd.
    • Note: Template:Cd needs to be set for any status information (modern or legacy) to be set.

Minecraft:Enchantment definition

Minecraft:Feature

  • Changed Template:Cd and Template:Cd
    • Blocks discarded due to air exposure will no longer fall through to the next replacement rule.

Minecraft:Fluid states

Minecraft:Fog

  • Render distance edge fog now reduces the opacity of objects at the edge of loaded chunks, rather than fading them into an opaque, constant color (which previously made them stick out strongly from the sky).

Minecraft:Friends list

  • Updated the design of the Friends list.
  • Added searching.
    • In the Friends tab, the profile name text box used for sending requests also functions as a search box.
    • In the requests tab, a search box appears at the top if the player has 15 or more requests.
  • Added sorting.
    • Sort modes can be cycled through by pressing the new sort button.
    • The current sort modes are:
      • Sort by who's online - friends who are listed as online appear at the top of the list.
      • Sort by alphabetical order - friends are sorted according to the alphabetical order of their names.
  • Clicking on a player's icon in the Friends list now opens their Player Options.
  • Removed "Remove Friend" button.
    • This functionality is now accessible through Player Options instead.

Launcher metadata

  • Tweaked default JVM options in the launcher metadata for this version.
    • The launcher will thus pass arguments to set the player's JVM heap size based on their system memory, using up to 25% with a maximum of 4 GB.

Minecraft:Mob variant definitions

Network Protocol

  • The server now more consistently disconnects clients when a packet they sent causes an error.
  • Added Template:Cd custom packet payload
    • This packet is intended to inform servers about client mods to simplify debugging.
    • Vanilla client sends an empty packet at the start of configuration phase, as it does not know about any mods – that is still a responsibility of 3rd-party modding platforms.
  • Modified Template:Cd packet
    • The Template:Cd field in the serverbound intention packet can now hold additional parameters (previously it stored only the domain name used for connecting to a server).
      • The new format is similar to URI query strings – the domain can now optionally be followed by a Template:Cd character and then followed by Template:Cd pairs separated by a Template:Cd character.
      • Empty values can be omitted (including Template:Cd sign).
      • Keys and values are escaped according to the standard URI rules ("percent-encoded component").
      • Keys starting with Template:Cd are reserved for vanilla use.
      • Users can now input properties in any "Server Address" field in the server list.
      • If a server uses SRV DNS records, the host field will contain both original and resolved domains.
        • If the resolved domain is different from the original domain, the resolved one will be used as the "primary" one, while the original one will be added as Template:Cd ("origin") property.
        • Example host string: Template:Cd, while the port field in the intention packet will be set to the resolved port value.
      • The field size has been extended to 1024 characters.
      • Note: since the Template:Cd packet is unencrypted, properties should not be used for any security-sensitive purpose.
  • Modified Template:Cd packet
    • Added Template:Cd field – a string to string map of properties that will be added to the host field in the Template:Cd packet sent to the target server.
  • Modified Login Protocol
    • Encryption and compression must now be explicitly applied by the server by sending one of two packets that carry connection options.
      • The client must acknowledge the change with a matching packet.
      • Every packet sent and received by the client after the acknowledgement will use the new settings.
      • Previously changes were applied immediately on both sides, which might have lead to malformed packets.
    • Packets that can carry options:

Minecraft:Options

  • "Graphics API" Video Setting:
    • "Default" now behaves the same as "Prefer Vulkan".
    • The game will no longer change the graphics API setting automatically if a startup crash is detected.

Order-Independent Transparency shaders

  • The OIT algorithm was simplified by replacing the wavelet-based mathematics with depth bin-based accumulation.

Minecraft:Particles

Player Reporting

  • Redesigned the save/discard draft confirmation screen.
  • Player reports saved as drafts no longer prompt you to discard them upon exiting a world if they can be continued later.
    • Chat reports can never be continued.
    • Name reports can be continued if the reported player is in your Friends list.
    • Skin reports can be continued if the reported player is in your Friends list.

Minecraft:Shaders

  • screenquad.vsh was renamed to screentriangle.vsh since it was actually representing a single triangle for a while now.
  • Removed OIT (Order-Independent Transparency, controlled by "Improved Transparency" video setting) support from the clouds.fsh, since it is now used to render clouds when OIT is off and to render clouds to an offscreen target when OIT is on.
  • Added blit_clouds.fsh shader with OIT support that renders clouds from an offscreen target to OIT targets.

Minecraft:Sky

  • When "Improved Transparency" is on, sky background and clouds that are behind the terrain are now blended into the terrain render distance fog making the boundary between the sky and the terrain invisible.
  • In the Overworld, the bottom half of the skybox is now occluding the celestial objects such as the Minecraft:sun, the Minecraft:moon and the stars.
