14w05a is the eighth snapshot for Java Edition 1.8, released on January 30, 2014,[1][2] which adds Spectator mode and barrier blocks.
Additions
Blocks
- Act like a solid block but are completely transparent.
- Can transfer redstone signals and allow blocks to be placed on it.
- Indestructible like bedrock.
- Can only be obtained using
/give @s minecraft:barrier. - Use the lava texture as its breaking particle.
Gameplay
- New game mode.
- Usage:
/gamemode spectator,/gamemode spor/gamemode 3. - No interaction with the world.
- Player can move through any entity or block without interfering with it (commonly referred to as 'noclip' or as if in the far lands because they have fake chunks).
- Collecting or using items is impossible, as is placing, destroying or interacting with blocks in any way.
- A bug in this version allows the selected item from the hotbar to be dropped.
- Viewing inventories and GUIs is possible, but it is not possible to interact with them.
- The heads-up display is disabled, except for the cross hair when looking at a mob.
- Player selectors (in commands) can target spectators.
- Using
/giveon a spectator causes the item(s) to drop at their location.
- Using
- Spectators are not noticed by mobs, and do not trigger spawners or spawning.
- A spectator's presence keeps a mob from despawning.
- Only the void and
/killcan damage a spectator.
- Flying mode.
- Landing is not possible—the player can fly through the ground.
- The mouse scroll wheel, the sprint key, and the Slowness and Speed effects all affect the flying speed.
- First-person view through another player or mob's eyes.
- Left-clicking an entity locks the player's position and camera to the entity's.
- The spectator cannot control where the entity moves or looks.
- Certain mobs have a different vision.
- Creeper applies the new creeper.json shader.
- Endermen applies the invert.json shader.
- Spider and cave spider apply the new spider.json shader.
- Viewing oneself using F5 shows the entity.
- Pressing the dismount key (⇧ Shift by default) returns the player to flying mode.
- Viewing privileges.
- Spectators can see other spectators.
- Appear as a translucent disembodied head.
- The selected item from the hotbar is also visible.
- Invisible players and mobs appear visible, but translucent.
- Spectators can see other spectators.
General
- creeper.json.
- spider.json.
- A segmented-eyes effect.
- Is applied when the player uses Spectator mode on a spider.
- Added the following splashes:
- "pls rt"
- "Do you want to join my server?"
- "Put a little fence around it!"
- "Throw a blanket over it!"
- "One day, somewhere in the future, my work will be quoted!"
- "Now with additional stuff!"
- "Extra things!"
Changes
Blocks
- Powered activator rails now shake minecarts, causing riders to dismount.
- Inventory image is now the missing texture instead of the nether portal.
Items
- No longer gets colored when mobs/players are hurt.
- Copying written books now marks them as copies/copies of copies.
- The copying status of a book (i.e. original, copy of original or copy of a copy) is denoted in a separate line in the tooltip, beneath the author's name.
- Copies of copies cannot be copied.
General
- Text now has a background.
- Replaced x, y, z, b, bl and other labels with more understandable labels.
- "Light" is now the light levels at feet, not eyes.
- Currently missing LC value.
- Redwood Taiga Hills M biome now shows its name in worlds created since 13w49a.
- Worlds created from 13w36a to 13w48b that already generated chunks with the biome don't show it in the debug screen, as they show Mega Spruce Taiga instead. In these worlds, Redwood Taiga Hills M generates normaly but it only shows in the debug screen in newly chunks generated since 13w49a.
GUI code
- Improvements to allow "cooler things".[3]
