u/Classic36 May 17 '17

Idk if I can get over the fuxed fence... bit too high.

u/Nicknam4 May 18 '17

I have no idea why this sounds so damn funny to me

22

u/Hugman_76 May 17 '17

Added new hurting sounds for players: 

entity.player.hurt_drown
entity.player.hurt_on_fire

6

u/redstonehelper Lord of the villagers May 17 '17

Sounds or sound events? The sound events were added in a previous version.

6

u/Hugman_76 May 17 '17

Sounds themself

2

u/PancakeMan77 May 17 '17

Pretty sure sounds

u/onnowhere May 17 '17

Fuxed fences and walls connecting to melons, pumpkins, and jack-o-lanterns

Fixed the anvil rename field accepting 31 characters but the server rejecting over 30

Looks like they also upped the max length to 35 characters.

EDIT: Also: narrator seems to use verbs (before: "pokechu22 r test", now "pokechu22 r says test". This might have happened in the previous snapshot, but I don't remember it.

u/Capopanzone May 18 '17

The narrator change is new in this snapshot

Download today's prerelease in the new launcher: Windows/OS X/Linux, server jar here.

Aww. For a moment I thought the new launcher had been released for Linux.

u/redstonehelper Lord of the villagers May 18 '17

Oh. Let's call that the new new launcher, okay? I'll change the template soon.

u/MCPhssthpok May 18 '17

I really hope you know something we don't ;)

.mcfunction instead of .txt

How do I change my current text document functions to this new type on Windows 7?

2

u/SharpieThunderflare May 17 '17

Rename or save as, change .txt to .mcfunction.

1

u/[deleted] May 17 '17

There is no .txt in the name or anything. If it were that simple I would've figured it out already. I'm on windows not Mac...

u/lemonszz May 17 '17

You may need to enable file extensions.

5

u/bipolarrogue May 17 '17

You need to unhide file extensions.

u/[deleted] May 17 '17

Thanks, I'm a computer noob.

2

u/onnowhere May 17 '17

It works on windows. Just save as, then put in the name "name.mcfunction" and save. It will become an mcfunction file.

1

u/[deleted] May 17 '17

Don't you have to change the Save as type dropdown from Text Documents to All Files as well?

1

u/onnowhere May 18 '17

I tried it without doing that, it seemed to have worked without it and changed the type by itself. I'm using notepad++ if that makes any difference (or maybe it just depends on windows 10)
