Mobs
[edit | edit source]General

Gameplay
[edit | edit source]- Formatting codes can no longer be typed in chat using the vanilla client.
General
[edit | edit source]- Updated language files.
Trivia
[edit | edit source]- In the title screen, when the language is set to Afrikaans, this snapshot includes a phrase in English calling the user a racial slur in place of the Singleplayer button's text. Mojang lead developer Jens Bergensten acknowledged the problem and explained that it was the result of a prankster abusing the open translation system. The offensive content was removed in the next snapshot, and the responsible user was banned.[2]
- When the language is set to "Ingles (Uruguay)", the "Singleplayer", "Multiplayer" and "Texture Packs" button texts are replaced with the Spanish phrase "Otra razón para odiarte...", which translates to "Another reason to hate you...". It's very likely that this is also a prank, as both the language title and the main menu buttons' contents weren't vandalized in the previous snapshot.
