Minecraft:Java Edition Alpha v1.1.1

Alpha v1.1.1,<ref name="hg">Template:Ytl</ref> also known as Seecret Saturday,<ref name="seecret"/> is the tenth and the final seecret update, which added sneaking, new Minecraft:paintings and fishing rods. It was released with server 0.2.1 on September 18, 2010,<ref name="seecret">Template:TWON</ref> and is the only Seecret Saturday update; all other nine seecret updates were released on Fridays.

This version included debug code relating to the gamma slider, which would set the display's gamma and contrast values to zero, sometimes resulting in the screen going completely gray.<ref>Template:TWON</ref> This code was removed in Alpha v1.1.2, which was released a few hours after v1.1.1.

Removals

General

• Level previewer.<ref group="note">Due to web.archive.org captions, the level previewer was removed between September 14th and September 26th. Alpha v1.1.1 is not the only version that released between these dates, so removal is likely.</ref>

Fixes

2 bugs fixed

• Infinite Minecraft:snowball exploit fixed where snow blocks (requiring 4 snowballs) would be crafted then broken, producing 4–6 snowballs back.
  • Solid snow blocks now only drop 4 snowballs.
• Fixed Minecraft:furnaces<ref>Template:Tweet</ref>Template:Info needed

Trivia

• Despite this version being available for approximately 3 hours and 25 minutes, considerably longer than many other archived versions such as the reupload of Alpha 1.2.3_01 (which was available for 2 minutes), there were no known archives of it until June 25, 2021 (10 years and 9 months after the update's initial release) when X (formerly Twitter) user LunaSorcery provided an archived jar file.<ref>Template:Cite</ref>
• There was a bug with crouching that caused the outer layer of custom skins render as if the player wasn't crouching.
• This version is identical to Alpha v1.1.2, with the exception of the gamma slider debug code, which caused the infamous "gray screen bug".
• Contrary to popular belief, calm4.ogg does not exist in this version's files.
