Changes

Gameplay

Minecraft:Achievements

Items

Minecraft:Resin Clumps

• The Minecraft:XP rewarded for smelting resin clumps into Minecraft:resin bricks has been reduced from 0.3 to 0.1.

World generation

Minecraft:Canyons

• Now generate more often.
• Can once again generate on the ocean floor.

General

UI

• PlayStation 5: 'Enable Screen Reader' accessibility setting is now used to initialize Text-to-Speech during first launch.
• Changed wording for enabling/disabling player's sleep skipping the night to "Skip night by sleeping" from "Beds work".
• Added additional debug info regarding Minecraft:Realms features in the general settings screen.
• Updated the text on the new bed screen when sleeping to skip the night is disabled.

Technical

Minecraft:Blocks

• Door blocks use state Template:Cd instead of Template:Cd. Uses string values (Template:Cd, Template:Cd, Template:Cd, Template:Cd).

Collisions

• Entities with no collision box but with the Template:Cd component are no longer sometimes unable to be interacted with.

Components

• Moved the Template:Cd component out of the Upcoming Creator Features experiment for Template:Cd 1.21.60 and above.
• Expand the Template:Cd component to allow inheriting properties to child entities.
  • Adds the new Template:Cd field which takes property name keyed objects.
  • The objects in Template:Cd can contain a Template:Cd which give the chance it should not inherit from either parent.
  • They can also contain the Template:Cd array of values to select from if mutating and the component has random mutation set.

Graphical

• Single-channel textures in resource packs are now interpreted as grayscale, rather than red. This change does not apply to single-channel UI textures, which were already interpreted as such.

Graphics

• Template:Cd JSON files now support a Template:Cd field in the Template:Cd component.
  • This change also restores Template:Cd and Template:Cd surface opacity to what they were until recently when the Template:Cd JSON files were introduced.

  • Template:Cd
  • Template:Cd
  • Template:Cd
