1.6
« on: 23 May 2011, 22:42:07 »

Notch will be releasing 1.6 this week, according to his Twitter. This means we may have to wait for plug-ins to update and so forth. Updates can be a pain since you are not able to play 1.6 in Noobstown until all of our server has updated. I suggest to continue playing click NO to the update, If you have already updated I have a small guide below that will help you get back online.

I suggest you go to run - %appdata% - .minecraft - bin and copy your 1.5 minecraft before the update as a backup.


1.6 Bug fixes (Only a selected few)

* Fixed rain sounds not playing with fast graphics enabled
* Fixed sand dropping onto boats getting stuck in a falling animation
* Fixed submerged boats rising very very fast - No more Boat lifts
* Fixed buttons and levers too close to the player being impossible to use
* Fixed fences and stairs sometimes becoming invisible  - Finally.
* Fixed fences and wooden stairs not being flammable
* Fixed rain falling through liquids - Was very silly
* Fixed rain and snow being incorrectly lit
* Fixed fullscreen mode switching causing mouse issues and screen closes
* Fixed rain falling too slowly - Almost like snow ;o)
* Fixed minecarts next to each other causing extreme velocities (sorry!)
* Fixed wolves not following their owner if the name has different caps
* Fixed inventory acting weird when portaling by making the portal close all screens
* Fixed dispenser graphics being one pixel off. ONE PIXEL!!! - I laughed
* Fixed the multiplayer join screen input field being too short
* Fixed IPv6 addresses being p****d wrongly. To connect to a specific port in IPv6, use the format [1234:567::1]:25565
* Fixed network packets being sent unbuffered, causing huge amounts of packets being sent
* Fixed entity positions going out of synch sometimes. They get re-synched every 20 seconds now.
* Fixed inventory icons not animating after being picked up in multiplayer
* Fixed mushroom soup not leaving a bowl in multiplayer
* Fixed healing not flashing the health bar in multiplayer
* Fixed arrows being animated really strangely in multiplayer - -.-
* Fixed arrows triggering too many entity move updates in multiplayer
* Fixed the compass not pointing at the spawn location in multiplayer
* Fixed fires being impossible to put out in multiplayer - Fireman Sam was not pleased
* Fixed players spawning in the wrong location and quickly lerping to the correct location
* Fixed records not playing for other players in multiplayer
* Fixed monsters not being visible for players with their difficulty set to peaceful
* Fixed loads of exploding tnt generating way too many particles, possibly crashing the client - It's about time.

And finally what he has added

1.6:

+ Added Nether support to multiplayer
+ Added craftable maps
+ Added hatches
+ Added tall grass in some biomes
+ Mushrooms now spreads (very) slowly
+ Added server property view-distance. Sets the radius of terrain updates (in chunks) to send to the players. Range 3-15, default 10.

Problems With update 1.6?
1.can't login to Noobstown? -> Noobstown might still be on update 1.5_01 because their plugins might have not got updated for update 1.6
2.How could i fix this if i have already updated minecraft? -> Well what you could do is either if u have it still. Copy the jar file of update 1.5_01 goto run -> &APPDATA% -> .minecraft -> bin and in there is your 1.5_01.jar file copy it and paste it somewhere other then that folder then if you want to you can update if you want to. If you want to change back to 1.5_01 just delete the 1.6.jar update and replace it with the 1.5_01.jar file. If you do not have it i will put a link onto this post in the future to get the 1.5_01.jar file.
