14w11a is the seventeenth snapshot for Java Edition 1.8, released on March 13, 2014,[1] which adds endermites.
Additions
Items
- Added endermite spawn eggs.
Mobs
- Appearance is similar to a silverfish's appearance, except they are purple and emit ender particles.
- Endermen are hostile toward them.
- Sometimes spawn in place of an enderman teleporting away.
- Despawn after 2 minutes.
- Spawn with a 5 percent chance when an ender pearl lands.
- Model will be changed in the next snapshot.[2]
Changes
Blocks
General
- Now internally use states instead of metadata.
- Metadata will still be used for a while.
- Block states of the block being looked at are now displayed on the debug screen - examples: redstone, door.
- Internally, metadata no longer needs to be calculated out of the 4-bit data value, instead, the values of specified properties can now be easily gotten and set.
Block models
- Converted fence gates, brewing stands.
- Lighting now works with models (most models for some users).
Graphics
- Dropped items now face the player in all three directions on fast graphics.
- Show two holes in their item icon.
Mobs
Creepers, skeletons, witches, zombies, zombie pigmen
- Now run away from exploding creepers.
- Walk slightly faster.
- Occasionally stop before moving again (similar to most mobs).
- Seem to jump a bit more randomly.
Non-mob entities
- Changed minecart physics.
- Minecarts now go faster and farther.
- Improved collision and position handling.
- Minecarts can derail at corners if going too fast, as well as refuse to go uphill.
- They now give a much greater boost to other minecarts.
- When powered, they can move on non-powered rails without decelerating.
- Explosions no longer stack.
General
- On the right hand side, a display shows up if you are looking at a block, giving various pieces of information and NBT data about it.
- Looking at a door and redstone shows you the state of the block.
- Door: which way it is facing, if it is open, which half you are looking at, if it is powered, and what side the hinge is.
- Redstone: power direction (up, down, side, none) for all compass directions (north, south, east, west) and power level.
- Not 100% complete, data for a lot of blocks still missing.
Fixes
From released versions before 1.8
- MC-36822 – Minecart with command block merging.
From the 1.8 development versions
From the previous development version
- MC-50452 – Rails don't render from below.
- MC-50838 – Entity UUID WitherSkull.
- MC-50904 – ender man acting weird.
Gallery
Pictures of fix to in block faces.[3]
Trivia
- 14w11a was previously removed from the launcher for some time, but was added back in September 2018.
- Endermites were said at this time that they "may have something to do with dragon eggs".[4]
