Beta 1.1[note 1] is a version of Java Edition Beta, released on December 22, 2010,[1] which added support for special events on specific dates during the holiday period as well as other changes and fixes.

Beta 1.1 was reuploaded 10 minutes after release as the original minecraft.jar did not include the font.txt file, making all text invisible in-game. However, this fix did not work because font.txt was still missing. Notch released a third update a few minutes after that, Beta 1.1_01, which fixed the issue.

2010 holiday capes

  • Players who played during December 25th were shown with a Christmas-themed cape.

These capes were temporary server-side changes and not added to accounts.
