Minecraft Development Snapshot Week 49
by Jens Bergensten on December 8, 2011
Hi!
As many of you probably already know, we are publishing snapshots of the development of Minecraft. These are builds of the game that may contain incomplete features or other things that we are testing. These are uploaded separately from the launcher, and are an optional release for those of you who want a sneak peek of whats new in the game.
This weeks snapshot contains the following changes (since last week):
Sheep eat grass and regain their wool
Farmland is no longer destroyed by items and particles (haha, lol)
Added multiple languages
Added a spawn mob egg item to creative mode
Corrected a setTileEntity multiplayer bug
Corrected a powered rail bug
Corrected a redstone update bug
I would like to give a huge THANKS to all of you who helped out translating the game, and to the Minecraft Coder Pack team for helping out with the administration of the language files. Also a big thanks to Ryan Scaevolus Hitchman for help with the Unicode rendering.
The language files are still work in progress, so translation errors and mistakes may still exist. As stated earlier, the snapshots are in development versions of the game

You download the snapshot files from here:
Client
http://assets.minecraft.net/11w49a/minecraft.jarServer
http://assets.minecraft.net/11w49a/minecraft_server.jarTo use these, you need to replace the JAR file in the application folder and then start the game from the launcher. If you are not sure what Im talking about, either search for help or wait until weve made an official release

Cheers!
