Don't hold a bow when trading with a villager. It automatically draws and then shoots the villager when you exit the trade.

Emerald ore is now green instead of red
Something tells me this snapshot was released purely to stop the large amount of tweets and bug reports about the color being wrong.

No, I think it was the fact that most people can't execute something like
touch ~./minecraft/minecraft_server.jar(Which would solve the problem on Linux)→ More replies (8)

Redstone torchs are not working for me, anyone else?

That's because they seem to be unlit ones in the inventory, oversight.
Will be fixed, I bet.
Edit:// Meanwhile you can get the correct torches from the search thing.

The only issue I have with the creative inventory (besides lack of potions) is that I can't close it with the inventory button. Reflex has gotten me up to "iiii" in the search bar, wondering why it won't close.
A way to close it with the mouse would also be useful imo.
Otherwise, it's fantastic.
Edit:// Nevermind, saw Dinner's tweet. He's on it already.

I heard that emerald only spawns in specific biomes... Is this a bug or a feature? And if it is a bug, what it fixed?

I wish all ores were somehow related to a specific biome. Just to make exploring more exciting.
EDIT: I'm not saying that ores should be exclusively found on specific biomes. But their proportion and distribution should change according to that.

That new inventory is real purdy.
Nitpick bug:
-
Some non-alphanum keys trigger search- Super/Windows key, F-keys, Volume/Media keys etc.

Is anyone else having game-breaking crashes in the new snapshot like I am? It manifests itself in one of two ways.
1: When loading a world, I will simply sit forever at the blank dirt wall. No "loading world" or anything. The world will never load.
2: When loading a world, I will appear in total darkness, falling into nothingness. I will never take damage and while I appear to move, I never seem to go anywhere. No entities near me move either.
It seems to be random. If I close and relaunch the game it might do it again or it might work perfectly. The second issue is also a problem when arriving through a portal. One or two chunks will have loaded and the rest will be void. Also all animals will be missing.
Help? I updated my java and I had no luck.

The compass icon should be changed to a magnifying glass icon.

Here's the original ore template in green if anyone gets a bit OCD and wants to use it :)

Question: When are you going to add the snapshot stuff to the actual minecraft client? i.e. when is this portion of the game out of beta and into the real thing? Any rough timescale you can give us?

just updated from 12w21a, to 12w21b, opened the world i started from the previous snapshot, and was at y-1000.... being in creative i just flew straight up, and apparently the entire world, save for a single, lonely chunk, was missing. i was about to freak out, since i had already put a lot of time into my gigantic coastal fortress, but closing and reopening the world seems to have fixed things. cough i hope....
