Snapshot 12w19a - Cocoa beans
This week's snapshot continues to separate the client-side stuff and the server-side stuff in Minecraft, as well as fixing a lot of issues that are related to that transition. This snapshot also gives us some new features to play around with in the game.
12w19a Features:
- Added cocoa plants to jungles
- Added a “large biomes” world type
- Added specific names for the different sandstone and smooth stone blocks

The client now comes with both the client-side and the server-side JAR files. The file called “minecraft.jar” should be in your “.minecraft/bin” folder as usual, and the “minecraft_server.jar” file should be in a folder called “.minecraft/server”.

12w18a - very experimental!
It's snapshot time again! This time, Mojang released a very experimental snapshot to be playtested. The update post on Mojang's blog states that the team is hard at work separating server logic from client logic, and changing the way in which ssp opperates. The goal is for ssp worlds to behave like they do in Pocket Edition. That is, players can invite friends to explore and play in their own SSP worlds without the need of a separate server. This work is not complete, but the snapshot is still playable.
Here's a rundown of this week's snapshot features:
- More fixes to silk touch and block picking
- Wooden tools work in furnaces
- Villagers spawned from spawning eggs will get a random profession
- Updated language files
- Etc…
