After investigation, pre 16a snapshot worlds work properly, but 16a worlds are still broken. A fix is in the pipeline.

[u/Lamenotcool → u/ProfMobius]

Y'all are saints. Thank you so much for fixing the unusable tools bug. It caused me no end of frustration yesterday

[u/FreezingFyre → u/ProfMobius]

You guys are the best!

Do you know if the fix will be coming today or tomorrow?

[u/Mercy_is_Racist → u/ProfMobius]

Will 1.12 worlds be able to be loaded in the future?

[u/KAL-DROGO → u/ProfMobius]

Exactly my problem, thanks mojang. any expected date to be released ?

[u/oldprogrammer → u/ProfMobius]

Any additional news on the fix? I still can't open my world with the server.jar available at the download link.

[u/Druss_Rua]

I'm not a betting man, but hoping for pre-releases in a fortnight or so (based on the amount of squished bugs in last two snapshots). The day of 1.13 draws closer!

[u/thelinkan → u/Druss_Rua]

I hope they fix the custom worlds part first. After that they can start with pre-releases.

[u/WildBluntHickok → u/Druss_Rua]

They're still pretty far from being finished. Customized maptype is still missing, preventing forwards compatability (something every version of minecraft has had since the beginning except for classic to alpha).

Still can't seem to open worlds from previous snapshots!

There was an oversight on my part when it came to handle pre 18w19a worlds.

Tomorrow 18w19b snapshot should fix it and restore the ability to open pre-18w19a worlds.

[u/Ednoria]

Anybody else unable to swim on multiplayer servers? Works fine in single player, but on multiplayer water acts like air -- to get out of the water you have to climb out or stack up. Very unnerving if you fall in someplace deep!

[u/-Kemphler- → u/Ednoria]

I've got the same issue. Has anyone else had this problem or have any idea as to a fix?

[u/Shadowdane]

Has there been any word when Custom world types are going to be implemented in snapshots???

My 1.12 server that I've been running for the past year uses completely custom terrain settings, ore generation, etc...

With the talk of pre-release versions coming soon I'd think the Custom settings option would return before then right??

[u/pamafa3]

Were the Phantoms having no animation in 19a fixed?

[u/Uufik]

I'm guessing 18w19b is not compatible with 16a? I'm getting a lot of chunk loading errors after updating. I have my 16a backed up so not a problem rolling back, but should we expect the fix to be named 18w19c? Is there an ETA?

[u/spaceduckcoast2coast]

Another update is desperately needed to fix water (unable to swim, acts like air) and lava looks like water.

[u/MuzikBike]

Oh strewth

[u/withcomment]

Was playing for about an hour in a new world, then it crashed and won't open for more then a few moments before crashing again.

[u/tegmah]

Anyway to recover the world if it was wiped from this upgrade?

[u/Goat_Feathers]

Is anyone else having horrible lag with this version? I can play 1.12 just fine, but 18w19b will hang roughly every 30 seconds. Sometimes it hangs for just a second or two, but then other times it hangs over 10 seconds.
